Chapter 41 Don’t You Feel Guilty?
“How did you get involved with Waldron?” The man’s words were thick with dissatisfaction, “When your
grandmother passed away, I thought you would let us take action. But why is it that when you contact
me, it’s to investigate another man…”
udia didn’t say a word, patiently waiting for him to finish hisints.
Afterining, the man immediately realized that he had be overly agitated.
Whatever she did, it was not his ce to give directions.
The man guiltily said, “I’m sorry, I was too excited. I’ll check it right away.”
“Um, let’s find out who was behind this.”
She clearly heard what Edmond and Ervin said, Waldron’s incident was no ident.
She could handle her grandmother’s affairs on her own, without the need for Enigma’s intervention.
However, the matter of Waldron, with itsplex and tangled reasons behind, forced her to utilize the
connections of Enigma.
After hanging up the phone, udia headed toward the hospital. Just as she reached the entrance, a
voice stopped her.
It was Elva.
Upon seeing udia, Elva was both angry and jealous.
Rosalie had received the test results and showed them to her.
Astonishingly, this udia was indeed the Seraphina who had gone missing from the Friedan family.
She greedily stared at udia’s face, wishing she could be her.
“Ms. Friedan,” udia called out to her, her voice cold and detached.
Thest time she fell into the water left her with no good feelings toward Elva. She couldn’t understand
why Elva would invade her privacy and set her up.
Seeing her indifferent attitude toward herself, Elva didn’t get annoyed. As she walked, she sized up
udia.
“I heard that my brother was hit by a car on his way to pick you up?”
udia stood still, her gaze icy.
Elva’s icy words were like sharp spi kes, piercing straight into one’s heart: “If it weren’t for you, Waldron
wouldn’t have been in trouble. Don’t you feel guilty?”
Her words were like pearls, each one sharp as a knife.
However, udia was not buying her story.
“My guilt was toward Waldron, what does it have to do with you?”
Hernguid voice was like a kitten scratching at your heart.
Elva’s face looked extremely unpleasant.
“Ms. Friedan, I don’t know what grudge you hold against me, but I have a bad temper, so it’s best not to
provoke me.” She turned and walked toward the elevator, and Elva followed her.
udia pretended not to see her, and as she stepped out of the elevator, Elva deliberately bumped into
her.
“Sorry, but who asked you to block the way?”
Elva strutted out with an air of arrogance, and udia sneered, asking, “Elva, what path of yours have
I exactly blocked?”
“Snooping on my privacy, always on guard when I interact with the Friedan family, what exactly are you
afraid of?”
She was no fool, she could see right through everything Elva did, both overtly and covertly.
Elva turned her head away in panic.
What a joke, I, Elva, have never been afraid of anyone.” Elva lifted her chin, giving her a sidelong
nce, “I just can’t stand you, so what if I bully you? Why don’t you fight back?”
Elva was closing in, step by step. The thought that udia had
be thest of her line filled her mind with schemes of tormenting
her.
What could a person without family backing do, even if they were bullied?
As long as she was there, she would ensure that Seraphina could never return home.
She smugly reached out to pinch udia’s face, but udia firmly grasped her fingers instead.
A wave of intense pain spread from her fingers throughout her entire body. Elva looked at udia in
surprise, not understanding how such a delicate girl could possess such strength.

“Let go!” She tried to pull away, but udia held her fingers in a strange grip that immobilized her.
Pain radiated in waves from his fingers.
Tears welled up in Elva’s eyes from the pain, and she couldn’t pry it open with her other hand either.
The elevator went up and down, people came and went, all of them witnessed this scene.
Elva’s face had turnedpletely red.
Elva couldn’t help but reach out to pull her hair, but udia quickly intercepted her with her other hand,
pushing her harshly to the side. Elva fell to the ground.
“What are you doing?” A furious shout rang out as Derrick rushed out from the corridor, quickly helping
Elva up.
He looked at udia, anger clear in his eyes: “I didn’t expect you to be so malicious.”
Had he not seen it with his own eyes, he would have never known that udia had such a side to her.
Indifference and ferocity were disyed to the fullest on her.
“I’m not as malicious as she is.” If it hadn’t been for Elva’s attack, she wouldn’t have bothered to
retaliate. She sneered coldly and started to walk toward the corridor, but Derrick quickly blocked her
way.
“Don’t go in!”
udia stood still.
“Don’t think that just because you’re close with Waldron, you can do
whatever you want. I let the incident at the pool slidest time, but just now, I saw you bullying my
sister with my own eyes. How do you exin that?”
“Ms. Lloyd, I demand an apology!”
Derrick reached out and stopped her at the door, making it clear that he didn’t want her to go in.
Elva squeezed out a few tears, standing next to Derrick, she This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
whimpered inint, “Brother, my hand hurts so much, it feels like it’s broken.”
She lifted her wrist and waved it, with a few fingers hanging loosely, as if she had really broken a bone.
udia sneered, thinking it was such a waste that this Elva didn’t go for an Oscar.
“Mr. Derrick, I don’t have time to argue with you right now. You can ask
your sister for the details. An apology is out of the question, I was merely defending myself.” She tried
to sidestep Derrick to check on Waldron, but Derrick simply blocked her way with his body.
“Ms. Lloyd, my brother is in aa because of you. My father has instructed that only family members
can visit him. Please stop what you’re doing now.”
Family, she was naturally not part of Waldron’s family.
udia stood still, nodding slightly, “Alright, then I won’t go in.”
Seeing her being so agreeable, Derrick frowned and said to Elva, “Let’s go.”
Watching Elva and Derrick leave, she stood for a while before heading downstairs.
Derrick had just said that Waldron was still unconscious.
Guilty, how could I not feel guilty.
Waldron, he was her friend!
Slowly, I walked downstairs to my grandmother’s sickroom. Just as I was about to push the door open,
I heardughter and cheerful chatter from inside.
“Cicely, did you like the meal I made? If you did, I’ll make it for you again.” It was Rosalie’s voice.
“I like everything you do, but I like it even more when you call me mom,” Cicely’s voice was filled with
joy.
Upon hearing this, udia knew that her mother-inw’s memory had
not yet returned.
Pushing open the door, Rosalie was feeding her grandmother.
Upon seeing her, Cicely’s expression was no longer as resistant as before. Rosalie’s eyes flickered a
few times, she put the bowl aside, and said to Cicely, “I have something to discuss with Ms. Lloyd,
Cicely, wait for me.”
She quickly walked over and slowly closed the door behind her.
“Are you divorced?” Rosalie asked expectantly.
The corners of udia’s lips curled up as she said softly, “Ms. yton, have you ever heard of a
cooling-off period after divorce? Unfortunately, you still have to wait another month.”
“It’s okay.” Rosalieughed, “I’ve waited for so long, waiting another month won’t make a difference.”
“Just in this past month, I was able to thoroughly prepare for my wedding. I even wanted to invite Ms.
Lloyd to be my officiant!”
