Chapter 573
In the summer, the weather was rather impermanent. After a heavy rain, the gloomy air
disappeared, with fresh air constantly flowing in through the window.
Sara sat in front of the study, breathing in the fresh air, and her depressed mood instantly lightened
up.
The staged wedding that had happened in Richards Manor, as well as the fact that Hansen had
personally rified the rumor of him getting a second wife, improved Sara''s mood.
Hansen was truly in love with Jenna. Through this incident, she was able to make out what was
going on.
Although Sara disagreed with Hansen''s method of ''marrying a second wife'' to solve the problem.
Nheless, after careful analysis, this kind of arrangement was also the best shortcut to solving
the problem.
She took a deep breath and looked down from the French windows.
Even though she was on the 28th floor, she keenly noticed the disturbance of the neighbourhood
below as she sat there everyday to enjoy the scenery outside the house.
Five ck cars drove in from the Francist Community''s main entrance.
Such cars were not driven by ordinary people.
After all, Sara was also an official''s wife. She used to follow Javon and participate in various
governmental administrative meetings. Hence, she knew that the cars'' license tes were only
avable for government officials.
Moreover, they were not used by themon officials.
She sat quietly, but the expression on her face was indifferent and deste.
Since Javon left, Sara''s life had been quiet and bleak. Jenna was the only one who could bring her
slight happiness when she returned. Other than that, Sara''s life had turned monotonous.
This residential area was for the family members of government personnel. Thus, it wasmon
for such a grand government vehicle to appear. Therefore, she didn''t think too much about it. After
all, those had nothing to do with her.
Life was like that. After Javon''s death, the mother and daughter duo became an orphan and a
widow. The people who usually surrounded them no longer appeared. Such vicissitudes of life were
normal. Sara''s heart was as calm as a millpond,
and she was indifferent and unperturbed.
Madam Lilian sat in the car and carefully observed the area''sndscaped garden. She figured that
they must have had a good life before Javon met with an ident. At the thought of that, she
rxed.
After the car was parked on the ground floor, Quina helped Madam Lilian get out of the car.
A few more military vehicles followed behind quietly. This was a detailed arrangement made by
Quina. Considering the sudden incident in the hospital previously, she had to make ample
preparation this time.
The elevator stopped on the 28th floor.
Quina carefully held Madam Lilian as they exited the elevator.
One of the bodyguards came forward and rang the doorbell.
After a long while, someone opened a small door from the inside.
Bailey looked out from the inside and noticed a dame with an extraordinary temperament and two
bodyguards standing at the door. There was also a middle-aged woman with sses on, who was
rather ssy, holding onto thedy.
Bailey was stunned and was sure that she did not know them.
That was strange. Who could those people be?
"Who are you looking for?" Her face was full of surprise as she asked with vignce. In the past few
days, Bailey had the feeling that someone was following her when she had gone out to shop for
groceries. Furthermore, their building seemed to have more mysterious strangers than usual,
making her feel very uneasy. Hence, she became more rmed.
"Hello, may I ask if Madam Sara lives here?" Quina smiled and asked amicably.
"You are..." Bailey did not open the door even though they mentioned Sara''s name. Instead, it was
obvious from her tone that she felt even more suspicious about it, and she did not hide the doubts
on her face.
"Oh, it''s like this. Our Madam wants to visit Madam Sara. Is that okay?" Quina gave a polite smile.
Madam?
Bailey''s eyes fell on the noble woman who was standing in the middle.
This woman''s temperament was noble and elegant, and her outfit was different from the others. The
imposing aura she exuded was something she had never seen in so many years.
Bailey looked at Madam Lilian''s face again. Her delicate facial features made her look as if she was
in her fifties. She looked polished and behaved in a very dignified manner, which made her look
extremely approachable.
She stood there quietly with a kind smile on her face. However, the noble and formidable aura she
emitted could not be ignored.
Bailey watched on. Suddenly, she felt as if the face, nose, and eyes in front of her were somewhat
familiar, as if they had once met each other. However, she couldn''t recall where she had seen her.

"Please rest assured. We have no ill intention. We just wish to visit Madam Sara. We heard that she
is not in good health. So, we are here to see her. Please open the door and let us in." Quina was all
smiles as she exined patiently.
Seeing that scene, Bailey understood that they wanted to pay Sara a visit. It was likely that they
wouldn''t leave if they couldn''t meet her. She thought for a moment before politely replying, "Then,
please wait for a moment. I''ll go in and ask for Madam''s opinion first."
As she spoke, Bailey turned around and went to Sara''s study.
"Madam, there''s a dame outside wanting to meet you. She even brings along a few people," she
whispered to Sara, who was sitting there in a daze.
"Oh, who are they? Why do they want to see me?" Sara answered with an ''oh'' indifferently. She
didn''t seem fazed by it, and her expression was calm.
"Madam, this..." Bailey didn''t know what to say. After thinking for a while, she added, "The woman
who looks like a staff member mentioned that their Madam heard that you are in poor health and
wanted to visit you."
The corners of Sara''s mouth twitched slightly.
Why would there still be people, whom she didn''t know,ing to visit her, a disabled person, for
no reason or out of sympathy?
Although she was disabled, she didn''tck anything.
"Bailey, can you ask her who she is again? What''s her name? Why did shee to visit me? If she
just wants tofort me because she sympathizes with my condition, then forget it," she answered
indifferently again with a very stoic expression.
"Alright. However, Madam, they seem to have a strong background. So, they should not be ordinary
people," Baileymented.
Sara snorted even more disdainfully. "I couldn''t care less about her background. They''re here to see
me, not the other way around. If they can''t give me a proper reason, then I won''t meet them. You
should know that I don''t care about interacting with the nobility."
Hearing Sara''s words, Bailey had no choice but to agree and walk out of the room.
"I''m sorry, but my Madam would like to know who you are. May I get your name? Is there an
important matter behind this visit? She is in good health now, and she doesn''t need your sympathy."
Bailey repeated Sara''s words.
This time, the people outside looked at each other in dismay.
Quina did not expect meeting Sara to be so troublesome. It seemed that Sara''s personality was not
that good as she was very lofty. In fact, many people wanted to meet with Madam Lilian, but their
intention didn''t bear any fruit. Right then, Madam Lilian took the initiative to see her and she was still
putting on airs. Nevertheless, after considering their special rtionship, Quina smiled and
responded kindly, "Our Madam is Madam Lilian, and she is a high-ranking person. She''s here just to
meet Madam Sara, and there is no malice. I hope your Madam can ept our goodwill."
Bailey smiled bitterly on the inside. She understood Sara''s personality. Madam Lilian''s status was of
no use to her now, as it all depended on whether Sara liked her.
At this time, Madam Lilian chimed in with a faint smile, "Please tell Madam Sara that Jenna is now
my granddaughter. Since I''ve identified with her, I wish to visit Jenna''s mother, Sara. Jenna often
proudly mentioned Sara in front of me, and I''ve already told her that one day I''lle to visit Sara in
person."
As soon as these words left her mouth, Bailey instantly heard Jenna''s name. Her expression and
attitude changed. She looked at Madam Lilian again with a smile on her face and hurriedly informed
them, "Then, please wait a little longer. I''ll receive my Madam''s instructions."
Bailey quickly left. After a while, she opened the door and invited Madam Lilian in.
The two bodyguards stood outside the door, and Madam Lilian only took Quina into the room.
The living room was very spacious, and the decoration was quite luxurious.
Her family must be rather wealthy.
Madam Lilian looked around.
At this moment, Bailey pushed Sara out of the room.
Madam Lilian and Quina turned over to look at Sara almost at the same time. With just a nce,
Madam Lilian''s heart pounded violently.
"It''s just too simr. Too simr," she muttered to herself with the rims of her eyes reddening.
Sara''s delicate face looked so simr to vian''s.
Her forehead and nose seemed to have been made out of the same mold.
Madam Lilian''s hands began to tremble.
At this moment, Sara was sitting quietly in the wheelchair with a polite and decent smile on her face.
"Nice to meet you, Madam Lilian," she greeted politely. She had heard from Jenna about Madam
Lilian. She knew that Jenna had formed a grandmother-granddaughter rtionship with this world-
renowned woman. For Jenna''s sake, Sara didn''t dare to disregard her. So, she immediately ordered
Bailey to open the door and invite them in.
For Sara, nothing was important except for Jenna.
Even if Sara didn''t want to meet them anymore, she still had to do it for Jenna''s sake.
Madam Lilian just dumbfoundedly stared at Sara, and her vision was blurry due to the tears in her
eyes. It was not until Sara called out to her twice did shee back to her senses.
"Okay, okay, child," she replied in a trembling voice. The woman was sitting in front of her in a
wheelchair. If she was really her daughter, then she was at most 51 years old. Madam Lilian gave
birth to her when she was 21. Yet now, although she was sitting in the wheelchair with a calm smile
and a determined look in her eyes, she already had gray hair and looked even older than her. Was
this her daughter? What kind of a life was she living?
"Madam, thank you for visiting my humble abode. Please have a seat." Sara, who was sitting in a
wheelchair, gestured towards the couch. She then turned to Bailey and ordered, "Bailey, make
some tea for the guests."
Grinning widely, Bailey agreed and left to prepare refreshments.
Sara pressed the switch on the wheelchair. Madam Lilian hurried over and offered in a friendly tone,
''TH push it for you."
As she spoke, she did not allow her to refuse her offer. Madam Lilian personally pushed Sara
towards the couch.
"Thank you, Madam." Sara was slightly embarrassed.
Madam Lilian pushed her and ced her next to the couch. After that, she sat down on the sofa
opposite Sara. The two of them faced each other and sat very close to each other.
After sitting down, the two began to size each other up.
The longer they looked at each other, the more frightened both of them were. For the first time, Sara
felt fear. She didn''t know what kind of a feeling it was. In the end, she avoided Madam Lilian''s gaze
and dared not to look at her anymore.
The light in Madam Lilian''s eyes was so familiar that Sara almost didn''t dare to look straight into her
eyes.
