Chapter 178 I Won''t Show It to You
Charlotte paused for a moment and then casually responded, "Pink."
Nelson fell silent but suddenly said with a smile, "Little Lottie, you still remember that I like you
wearing pink."
Charlotte was speechless.
At that moment, she wished she would rather be dead.
Thankfully, Nelson didn''t say anything more. Charlotte''s wardrobe had already been moved to his
room. He opened a drawer, found what he was looking for, and gently knocked on the bathroom
door. Charlotte opened a crack and looked as wary as a little squirrel. Nelson handed her
underwear to her and said, "Here you are."
He grabbed her pink bra with his slender fingers. Charlotte didn''t even dare to look at him and just
took it over. She quickly closed the door.
Charlotte hurriedly put on his bathrobe and suddenly realized something. Since it was so
embarrassing for her to ask Nelson to fetch her underwear, why not let him bring her pajamas over
too?
Did she lose her mind just now?
She was finally relieved until she walked out of the bathroom and got her pajamas. She also told
herself that it was no big deal, but her face flushed when she went out and saw Nelson staring at
her with a teasing smile. Charlotte lowered her head and climbed onto the bed, saying, "I, I''m going
to bed. Good night."
Nelson asked, "You''re wearing the pink one I like. Aren''t you going to show me?"
Charlotte said seriously, "I was just saying." She added, "And even if I wear it, I won''t show it to
you."
Nelson asked again with a smile on his handsome face, "What if I beg you?"
"No way!"Charlotte rejected his reasonable request and pulled the covers over her head. She said
in a low voice, "I''m going to sleep; I still have sses tomorrow."
Nelson chuckled and reached for a military magazine on the bedside table. As expected, before he
finished reading just two pages, Charlotte had drifted into slumber. She moved closer to him and
hugged his arm before falling asleep.
Nelson put the magazine aside and watched her slumbering face. Suddenly, he felt drowsy and
turned off the light. Only a small nightmp was left on. He held Charlotte in his arms and closed his
eyes.

"Mom... What''s this?"
Early in the morning, Helena found her mother sitting on the sofa and looking awful. It jolted her,
and she was immediately wide awake.
Sitting down beside her, Helena took over a sheet of paper from the small table and asked, "Isn''t
this Grandma''s death certificate?"
Helena set the certificate aside and tugged at Amanda''s arm. "Mom, this isn''t time to go through
these things. Let''s get my aunt to help me find a job as soon as possible. Valentina and other girls
allugh at me, and it''s driving me insane."
"Your aunt?" Amanda gave a wry smile as she handed over a stack of papers in her hand to Helena
and said, "Take a look for yourself!"
Helena, feeling confused, took them over, and her face turned pale after reading only two pages.
She asked, "How is this even possible? Mom, how did you get these?"
"Someone had them delivered to me, and I was told to pick up the package early in the morning,"
Amanda said with a grim face, "I thought it was the dress your dad bought for me, but it turned out
to be all these things."
Helena said, "We don''t even know who sent these things. They could be fake. Maybe... maybe my
aunt, she..."
Amanda clutched the couch tightly and said, "...These are all real! So many details add up perfectly!
Although my mother passed away early, and I never actually met her, a servant who took care of
her followed me to the countryside. She used to imply that my mother''s death was suspicious, but I
always brushed it off. After all, Natalia and Aurora were so good to me..."
She continued with a bitterugh, "Good to me? Ha, they snatched everything that should have
been mine and turned me into who I am today. But I still thought they were being kind to me!"
Helena was lost for words.
She had always been close to Aurora because she saw her as generous and gentle. She never
looked down upon her family though they were the nouveau riche. During family gatherings, Vivian
would often hang out with her and send her small gifts. Therefore, Helena didn''t want to believe that
everything in those documents was true, but...
She couldn''te up with a single word to defend Aurora because the documents were crystal
clear, and there were also numerous photos as evidence.
Her own grandmother had been killed by Natalia whom she had always addressed as "Grandma."
Because of Natalia, her mother never got to see her own biological mother. Natalia pretended to be
a caring stepmother, but in fact, she was vicious. She raised her mother to be spoiled and willful to
make her grandfather resent her. Her mother was then abandoned by her family and had to live in
the countryside under the excuse that she was in recovery. Her life was ruined...
Even her father had been chosen by Aurora, who traded her half-sister''s happiness for a reliable
business partner!
Everything they had done was an unforgivable betrayal.
Let alone Amanda, who had a tragic life, even Helena was furious.
She had always admired Vivian, who came from true blue blood, while she was just the daughter of
the nouveau riche. She often found herself dreaming about being just like Vivian. It turned out that
everything Vivian had belonged to her!

Amanda said in tears, "Even though I never met my mom, the maid who looked after me said my
mom adored me. When I was just three months old, she''d talk to me by gently patting her belly,
read me poetry, and y music...She said my mom was a gentle and kind-hearted person. But back
then, I didn''t value her love and simply epted Natalia as my real mother... Helena! Helena, am I
terribly naive? I treated Natalia as my mother and Aurora as my sister, but yet they took my
mother''s dowry and reduced me to a wreck..."
Helena was moved to tears as well. "Mom... Mom, please don''t cry... We can''t do anything against
Auntie right now. We can''t take her on!"
Aurora couldn''t contain herself, saying, "But all of this should have been mine! I''m the Hunter
family''s eldest daughter! Aurora is nothing more than a child born out of wedlock! It was Natalia,
that wicked woman, whose marriage was destined to be troubled!"
Helena responded, "But, Mom, there''s nothing we can do... Truly, nothing at all..."
Helena also burst into tears and said, "Mom... Mom, please don''t cry... We can''t do anything against
Aurora right now. We can''t fight her!"
Amanda had a breakdown and said, "But all of this should have been mine! I''m the daughter of the
Hunter family! Because of Natalia, that wicked woman and homewrecker, Aurora shouldn''t have a
happy marriage!"
Helena responded, "But, Mom, there''s nothing we can do... Truly, nothing at all..."
