The Woman From Hell

Cole's peaceful gaze turned hot when he looked at me. He continued, "The Fredericks didn't let her go easily. They sent people after her. Later on, Millicent brought her back to the Yards, and Sandra became a servant of theirs. Even though she was a servant, Millicent treated her well and used her power as a Yard to protect Sandra. Sandra also likely remembered the kindness that Millicent had shown her."

I had never expected the Fredericks to be so insidious.

I thought of what Jordan did before and figured that he must have been bewitched by his family members to act like that. Thinking about it this way, everything seemed a lot more reasonable.

"My adoptive mother remained with the Yards the entire time after that, so where did I come from?" I became interested in what happened next. I could know about my life a little further down.

However, Cole shook his head. "There seems to be a section in the middle of the story that has been deliberately covered up. I haven't found out about it yet. Through inquiries, my subordinates were only able to find out that Sandra brought back a child from somewhere that she loved dearly. During the economic crisis that year, the three major families gradually declined, and many of her enemies came for her. In order to protect her child, Sandra took her and fled far away."

"I was the child she brought back, but it's a pity that we don't know what happened in the middle." There was regret in my voice when I said this.

"It's not difficult to find out. It's just a matter of time."

Cole's words revived my spirit, and my eyes lit up when I looked at him. "Really?"

"Yes."
