Chapter 545
The car soon arrived at the Hamilton mansion.
Anna took Gemma out of the car. Looking at the familiar vi in front of her, a sour feeling welled up
i n Anna''s heart and she was on the verge of tears.
"Mommy, was this your home when you were little? It''s so beautiful." Gemma pped her hands
cheerfully.
"Yes, this was the ce where Mommy grew up." Anna gave a bitter smile.
"Mommy, let''s go home!" Pulling her mother''s hand, Gemma''s face was filled with excitement and
she couldn''t wait to hurry to her mother''s home.
Going home...
Anna''s heart twitched a bit.
She still remembered when she was little, she had her dad and her mom, and the three of them all
lived in the house, and it was indeed her loving home.
However, afterward, her mom passed away. Then her stepmother, Nicole, came, and then her
stepsister, Chole, cameter. Since then, she had never felt at home there again.
However, then she came back anyway.
Time flew. Today Anna had brought her three-year-old daughter with her and returned to Johannes
City, and the first thing she did was toe back here for a look.
Deep in her heart, she still considered this ce as her home after all.
Only that, in this house, those people she remembered were no longer there.
Suppressing the sorrow in her heart, Anna took a deep breath. She took Gemma with her and rang
the doorbell.
A housemaid opened the door. The maid froze for a moment when she saw the young woman and
the little girl standing at the door.
Then the maid ran back into the house excitedly and shouted.
"Lisa! Lisa! Come out! Ms. Anna is back! Ms. Anna is back..."
Soon, an elderly woman with grey hair came over. When she saw Anna and Gemma at the door,
she was stunned.
Anna smiled faintly, "Lisa, long time no see!"
Tears welled up in Lisa''s eyes and she couldn''t help but shed tears of happiness.
"Ms. Anna, Ms. Anna, it''s really you. You''re back..."
"Yes, I''m back."
Anna opened her arms and hugged Lisa, gently patting the old woman''s back.

As far as she could remember, Lisa had always loved her tenderly.
For a long time after her mother''s death, Lisa cuddled her to sleep every night when she was crying
all the time.
Although Lisa was only a maid, they had long been families.
Three years ago, when Anna left the country, Lisa sent her off and cried all the way. At that time,
Lisa just had a little gray hair at her temples, but in three years, she grew a full head of gray hair.
"Ms. Anna, finally you''re back. It''s so good, so good..." Lisa was choked with sobbing.
"Lisa, don''t cry. This time Ie back and I won''t leave."
"Well, it''s good to have you back... I miss you so much, Ms. Anna..."
Lisa couldn''t hold her tears. Seeing the little girl who had been looking up at them, she hurriedly
wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and asked in surprise.
"Ms. Anna, this child is..."
"This is my daughter, Gemma Hamilton. Gemma, meet Grandma Lisa." Anna wiped the tears from
the corners of her eyes and hurriedly called Gemma toe over t o greet Lisa.
Gemma immediately bent down slightly and spoke politely, "Grandma Lisa, nice to meet you! My
name is Gemma Hamilton."
"Gemma? Ms. Anna, your daughter... That child back then... has grown to such an age..."
While speaking, tears sprang out of Lisa''s eyes again. She hurriedly hugged Gemma into her arms
and then she sobbed irresistibly.
"Poor Ms. Anna, poor Ms. Gemma..."
Anna knew what had brought up Lisa''s grief. Tears brimmed her eyes. She hurriedly tilted her head
up to look at the sky to keep the tears from trickling down.
"It was said back then, Ms. Anna aborted the child... I didn''t expect that the child had grown such a
little girl. " Lisa hurriedly wiped her tears in fear of scaring Gemma.
"Do not talk about that. Don''t talk about that anymore. Let''s hurry inside! Don''t stand here!"
Lisa hurriedly instructed other housemaids to take Anna''s luggage, and then she walked Anna and
Gemma into the house.
Gemma was fairly curious about everything here, and her big eyes kept skittering around.
Tears were in Lisa''s eyes again. "The child has grown such a little girl. It''s so great." "Yeah, she''s
three years old." Anna let out a sigh.
It looked like that time indeed flew fast. Gemma was already three years old and she had been
growing up gradually.
Anna walked into the house.
Everything in the living room was the same as when she left. Everywhere was kept the same. It was
a pity that time had changed everything and she was no longer in the same mood three years ago.
"Ms. Anna, I''ll go make you some coffee." Lisa left for the kitchen hastily to make coffee. At the
same time, she instructed the other two maids to prepare lunch.
Watching Lisa and the housemaids busy around, Anna felt a warmfort in her heart.
Although all the family members were gone, seeing Lisa was like seeing a family member.
Gemma looked around the house. "So this was the ce where Mommy grew up. It''s beautiful, but
it''s a little old."
Gemma grew up in a new house in Ennd, so the ancient house looked old to her, of course.
Gemma didn''t quite like staying in the house. When she saw the beautiful garden outside, with all
the flowers she had never seen in Ennd, she was curious and wanted to go out and y.
Gemma soon grew acquainted with the maids in the house. She was bouncing around, following
the maids in the garden.
Looking up at everything in the house and every familiar corner, old memories overwhelmed Anna.
Those fragments slowly coalesced into a series, like movie clips, ying in front of her eyes one by
one.
Once, here also lived her father, Nicole and Chloe.
All those quarrels, fights, and all kinds of painstaking past, couldn''t stop intertwining in her mind.
Although it was not easy to have gone through everything, Anna still felt a slightest nostalgia.
Because at least, when those people lived here, although it was not quite like a home, it was a
home in the name.
Then, however, she was left alone. Although it turned quiet in the house, this cecked the
hustle and bustle of a home.
"Ms. Anna, I''ve put your luggage in your room. Please take a look. Would like me to organize it for
you?" The maid asked in a whisper.
Anna turned back. "Thanks. But I''ll do it myself."
"Okay." The maid nodded and went away.
Walking up the stairs, Anna came to her own room, but she stopped as she gripped the doorknob.
She tilted her head slightly to hold in the tears in her eyes. Then slowly, she opened the door.
The familiar bed, the familiar closet and the familiar floor...
Anna walked into the room and slowly reached out to feel everything in the room with her fingers.
Suddenly, Anna''s eyes stopped at a photo on the bedside. It was a rather dull photo.
The girl in the photo was wearing ck-framed sses, a white shirt, jeans, a pair of t shoes, and
her hair was in, but the smile on her face was so touchingly pure.
It was Anna three years ago. She felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.
"Dull! Boring!"
Anna murmured in a faint voice. Picking up the photo, she gently wiped the dust with trembling
fingers.
She still remembered that it was the remark Liam made to her when they first met.
Tick...
A teardrop fell on the photo. At this moment, Anna could not hold her tears any longer and it raged
out of her eyes.
Anna tried to wipe it off the photo, but it was in vain.
Perhaps, it was at that time, she was doomed to meet Liam and fell into an inescapable whirlpool.
Tears and her sour eyes stung her heart cruelly.
Life! What if it stayed as when they first met!
