    Disappeared for a Long Time


    Trantor: 549690339 |


    Upon hearing Hannah Ford mention the citrine ne, Ethan Wilson on the other end of the phone also fell silent.


    Every time the ne was mentioned, he would be like this.


    He felt it was his redemption, but for some reason, he was reluctant to face it.


    Hannah continued to sob.


    “Grandma is so old now. When shest came to see me, she asked me if I remembered that ne. I knew it was her dowry when she was young, so I coaxed her and said that the ne was kept in a safe in Eastonia and wasn’t brought back.”


    “Ethan… I don’t want to disappoint my grandma… Am I useless? My health is not good, I can’t be filial to her, and I even lost her favorite dowry. It’s all my fault. Why did I show off that ne to the other children in the orphanage when I was young? If it weren’t for that, it wouldn’t have been stolen…”


    The more Hannah spoke, the sadder she became, and the more tears she shed.


    Ethan Wilson’s face turned a bit pale as memories of the past were stirred by her words.


    “I’ll have someone continue to investigate the ne. Now, you just focus on recovering at the Manor, and I’ll inform you as soon as there’s any news.”


    Hearing Ethan’s voice soften a bit, Hannah knew her goal had been achieved.


    “Okay, I’ll be good. Ethan, I won’t bother you anymore, I’ll hang up now.”


    After hanging up the phone, a smile appeared on Hannah’s face.


    Heh, she wasn’t in a hurry to find the ne.


    After all, the true owner of that ne had disappeared a long time ago.


    Perhaps, they were no longer in A City.


    Thinking of her past and her once desperate and lonely life, Hannah couldn’t help but squint her eyes.


    She was determined to be Mrs. Lucas!


    She would never let herself fall back into that humble and poor life again!

    At the film set, Skye Brown just called “cut,” and Lily Gray came over to hand her a hand warmer.


    “Here, Mr. Wellington sent it over today. There are also 999 roses he just sent…” Lily Gray’s face was full of smiles, somewhat mocking.


    Skye Brown wasn’t pretentious and epted the hand warmer.


    Although it was sent by Dn Wellington, she wouldn’t let herself freeze in the cold winter out of anger.


    “Let him send whatever he wants. Anyway, we use a lot of rose petals in this costume drama, so I’ll have the props team take them apart and dry themter. They’lle in handy for the petal rain.”


    Hearing Skye’s words, Lily Gray couldn’t help but chuckle.


    “You, always making Mr. Wellington eat his words. Now you’re even ruining what he sent you, be careful he doesn’te to settle the score with you!”


    Lily Gray teased her best friend, but in her heart, she felt that Skye was doing just the right thing.


    Humph, their cute Skye shouldn’t be easily taken away by Dn Wellington!


    “Let him settle the score if he wants, I’m not afraid! On the other hand… Lily, isn’t your husband Ethaning back tonight?”


    Hearing Skye mention her husband, Lily Gray’s face turned red.


    She nodded gently, “Yeah, he said he would be back tonight but it would be quitete. He asked me not to wait for him and go to bed first.”


    “He’ll be homete… That’s perfect, today is E Reed’s birthday, and she’s having a party after work. You shoulde with me then?”


    E Reed was the female lead in the film, as well as a top actress under Wellington Productions.


    As the producer, Lily Gray would definitely need to show her face at the birthday party.


    But-


    Lily Gray suddenly smiled, “Skye… Aren’t you just afraid of having trouble dealing with Mr. Wellingtonter, so you’re pulling me with you?”
