Chapter 22: A Person Who Can Help You
“So what?” Gretchen snorted contemptuously and said, “Your father is dead, and now the Hudson
Group has nothing to do with you and your mother. I can kick your mother out of the house at any
time.”
“You...” Before Estelle could say anything, Gretchen hung up the phone.
Looking at the screen, Estelle felt distressed when thinking about her current situation.
Her mother was seriously ill, and her daughter was taken away. Besides, her bank ounts were
frozen, and she had no money to pay the hospital bill.
What should I do now? What should I do to arrange everything well before I die? She thought in
despair.
She just wanted to prove her innocence and let Cristofer know the truth about the car ident six
years ago before she died.
She just wanted him to know that she had never lied to him or schemed to harm him.
However, the cruel reality was a p in Estelle’s face. Troubles came one after another, and she
had to face more difficulties than she had thought.
She couldn’t even protect her mother and daughter, not to mention to prove her innocence.
When Estelle was lost in thought, she received a message.
Do you want to save your mother? Come to Room 1231 of the Grand Hotel of Hadale City at nine
o’clock tonight.
Estelle was confused and found that the message was from a strange number.
Who are you? She replied to the message.
A person who can help you.

“Who called me just now?”
Cristofer walked out of the bathroom with a lovely baby in his arms.
The baby was not afraid of him at all. She looked straight at Cristofer with her big eyes and smiled
sweetly at him.
Several minutes ago, she was still crying loudly when Cristofer bathed her. But at this moment, she
looked very happy.
Cristofer held the baby in his arms carefully and looked affectionately at her.
With tenderness in his eyes, he thought, This is my daughter. This is the child of me and... Estelle.
Then he remembered what his special assistant had reported to him on the investigation of Estelle’s
childrenst night.
“Mr. Hans, Estelle’s son, was taken abroad, so we couldn’t get his DNA for a paternity test. As for
her daughter, ording to the paternity test result, the daughter that Estelle gave birth to not long
ago is indeed your child.”
When Cristofer heard that, his heart skipped a beat and was lost in thought.
One year ago, Estelle used our divorce as a bargaining chip and begged me to go back home and
have sex with her.
Did she do all this just to have a child? Or did she think that after she gave birth to our baby, I would
let go of the past and forgive her for what she had done before?
No way. I will never forgive her! And I won’t let my daughter live with a cunning and vicious woman
like her.
The daughter of Cristofer and Estelle was very beautiful. She had big watery eyes, a beautiful nose,
a cherry-like mouth, and a cute round face. When she smiled, her eyes looked like crescent moons.
Cristofer felt that the blood rtionship was magical. When he first saw his daughter in the hospital,
he couldn’t take his eyes off her and couldn’t help smiling.
“Yvonne,” Cristofer whispered and looked at the baby. “From now on, your name is Yvonne. Do you
like this name?”
Yvonne smiled and made cooing noises as if she was very happy that she finally had a name.
Gretchen got close to Cristofer and said, “What a nice name.”
Cristofer fixed his eyes on Yvonne and said in an unprecedentedly gentle tone, “It was Estelle who
named her. She once said that our child would be named Yvonne if it was a girl and named Yohan if
it was a boy.”
“Who did you say named the baby?” Gretchen asked.
It was not until then that Cristofer realized what he had said. Then he said in a low voice, “Sorry. I
shouldn’t have mentioned her.”
With a displeased look, Gretchen stared at Yvonne with coldness in her eyes.
The next moment, she showed a gentle look and said, “Cristofer, since Yvonne is your daughter, I
will take her as my own daughter in the future. It must be that God pitied me for my miscarriage, so
he let little Yvonnee to me. I will treat her well. Let me look after her, will you?”
“I’ll ask Luke to take care of her.” Cristofer refused her directly.
“... You don’t trust me?” Gretchen asked in surprise.
Cristofer said nomittally, “Your ankle hasn’t recovered. You should have a good rest these
days.”
“Okay...”
“By the way, who called me just now?” Cristofer remembered and asked her.
With a long face, Gretchen said unhappily, “It was just a crank call. I answered the phone and
scolded the caller.”
Cristofer nodded and said, “You may just reject it if you receive crank calls in the future. It’s a waste
of time scolding those annoying guys.”
“I see.”
Cristofer gently put Yvonne into the crib, turned around, and asked, “By the way, you are York’s
stepdaughter, right? Why didn’t you tell me about it before?”
Hearing that, Gretchen was stunned and froze.
“I... I was afraid that you would think too much, so I didn’t tell you about it,” She reasoned.
Cristofer frowned slightly, “I wanted to reinvestigate the car ident six years ago, so I went to the
Hudson’s House today. I wanted to ask Aurora if there was anything wrong with her husband before
the car ident six years ago. But I was surprised to find that you were there and that your mother
is York’s wife. Do you know that York was the very one who forcibly upied the Hans family’s
property after the car ident? What he is enjoying now is the fruit of my parents’ painstaking
efforts!”
Gretchen held his arm and said in a sobbing tone, “I know about it, so I didn’t dare to tell you that
I’m York’s stepdaughter. I’m afraid that you will break up with me because of my rtionship with
York. Cristofer, I have no blood rtionship with York. And my mother didn’t know about his past
when she married him.”This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.
