Chapter 2


    Six yearster, in Peace City.


    It was April. Cherry blossoms were in full bloom on both sides of the main street. The spring breeze


    blew off the white petals, which danced around. People walked in the flower shower as if they were


    passing through a fairnd.


    On therge screen of a shopping mall, thetest financial news was being broadcast.


    The heir to the Four Seasons Group, Julian Shaw, was being interviewed.


    A slender woman stopped in front of therge screen when she saw the interview. She took off her


    ck sunsses and lightly shook her long curly hair, revealing a stunning face the size of a palm. As


    she watched, she narrowed her beautiful eyes.


    On the screen, a reporter asked Julian a question.


    "Mr. Julian, I heard that the Four Seasons Group''s Eastwood Branch has been recently involved in an


    economic dispute. The other party has already filed an appeal after losing the first trial. May I ask if


    yourpany is confident in the second trial?"


    Julian looked at the camera confidently, "The Four Seasons Group has never done anything illegal, so


    we will definitely win the second trial."


    Looking at Julian''s confident face, the woman smiled coldly. She took out a mobile phone from her


    handbag and dialed a number.


    "Hello, Mr. Steele. This is Audrey. Mike has rmended me to yourw firm. I happen to have time


    today. Okay, see youter."


    After she hung up the phone, the woman gazed at therge screen again with unfathomable emotions.


    Audrey Munn, no, her name was Audrey Koch now. She was back!


    She gave a meaningful smile and put her sunsses back on, turning to leave the shopping mall.


    Just then, an old woman appeared from nowhere and grabbed her. "Don''t go!"


    Audrey felt it was ridiculous, but she didn''t put away the old woman.


    "Madam, what''s the matter?" Audrey asked softly.


    These years, even though she had been mostly indifferent, she would always be nice to an olddy.


    The olddy blinked and suddenly jumped into Audrey''s arms.


    "Elliana... You''re Elliana!"


    Audrey was taken aback. Elliana was her childhood name. How could the olddy know about it?


    The olddy held Audrey tightly in her arms and kept on muttering.


    "My dear granddaughter, I finally found you."


    Audrey was dumbstruck.


    What was going on?


    Ten bodyguards suddenly rushed over and surrounded them.


    The leader stood sweating behind the olddy and asked nervously, "Madam Cordova, are you


    alright?"


    A moment ago, the olddy suddenly ran off. They were scared to death. If anything happened to her,


    they would be doomed.


    Audrey nudged the olddy in her arms and said, "Madam, your people havee for you."


    However, the olddy was indifferent to this. She kept holding Audrey tightly, not letting go.


    Just as Audrey was about to nudge the olddy in her arms again, she suddenly felt that something


    was wrong. She looked down and saw that the olddy had passed out again.


    "Madam, what''s the matter?"


    Audrey supported the olddy and identally stumbled on a stone. She lost her bnce and fell


    backward.


    In the nick of time, Audrey held the olddy tight in her arms. The back of her head knocked hard on


    the shoulder of the road behind her.


    Suddenly, she had a ckout.


    ...


    When Audrey woke up, she found she was in a strange room with sophisticated lights.


    Just as she was about to sit up, a sharp pain came from behind her neck. She groaned in pain.


    Audrey touched the pain behind her neck and slowly sat up. She looked around and found she was in a


    large room with exquisite furniture.


    Where was she? Why was she here?


    She only remembered that she had saved an olddy, and then ... she fainted.


    Was this the olddy''s home?


    She guessed that she had fainted because of the olddy, so her people brought her here.

    She spotted her handbag and sunsses on the bedside table.


    She threw back the covers and got up. She put on her shoes and picked up her bag and sses,


    walking to the door.


    She opened the door and walked out. A servant was passing by.


    "Hello, may I ask where the gate is?"


    The servant pointed behind her.


    "Go straight on and turn left at the first corner. After that, turn right, and then you will see the stairs."


    Audrey smiled and nodded.


    "Thank you. By the way, please tell the olddy that I''m leaving."


    "Okay."


    When Audrey took a taxi and left the Cordova Mansion, she happened to pass a ck Rolls-Royce.


    ...


    At the Cordova Mansion.


    When Tim, the butler, saw a tall figure enter, he came up to greet.


    "Mr. Bryson!"


    "How is Grandma?"


    Bryson walked to the stairs.


    "Madam Cordova just woke up, but she is asking for Ms. Elliana."


    Hearing this, Bryson changed his expression slightly.


    Bryson''s younger sister, Elliana, hung out with her ssmates when she was eighteen years old, but


    an ident happened. She was killed in a hotel. Later, the murderer surrendered himself to the police


    and was sentenced to life imprisonment.


    Kylee loved Elliana a lot. Her family was afraid that Kylee would not be able to ept this fact. So, they


    lied to Kylee and said that Elliana had gone abroad to study.


    Two years ago, Kylee identally found out the truth, but after that...


    Bryson couldn''t afford the time to think much, and he quickly walked to Kylee''s room.


    Kylee pushed the servant away angrily.


    "What nonsense are you talking about? Elliana is still alive. I saw her. How could you lie to me that


    Elliana would note back? Get out of here!"


    Seeing Bryson, Kylee immediately rushed to him.


    "Bryson, it''s great that you''re here!" Kylee grabbed Bryson''s arm and red at the servants behind her


    as if she were a fighting cock. "They said that Elliana would nevere back. Bryson, tell them that


    Elliana is fine, OK?"


    Bryson held his grandma in his arms.


    "Yes."


    Then Bryson''s cold and sharp eyes swept across the servants, and they all lowered their heads in fear,


    not daring to say anything.


    Kylee heaved a sigh of relief.


    "I told you. Besides, I saw Elliana today. How could I be mistaken?"


    "Grandma, I heard you hadn''t had lunch yet. Let''s go eat first."


    "Where''s Elliana?"


    "She is busy."


    Kylee''s face darkened. "What''s so important that she doesn''t even have time to have dinner with me?


    Call Elliana. If she doesn''te, I won''t eat."


    Bryson replied, "Okay, I''m calling her now."
