Chapter 27


    Not long after Mnie got home, Roderick also came.


    Roderick put a lot of medicine and nutrition on the table.


    “M…”


    Seeing that, Mnie knew what Roderick meant and took the medicine herself.


    Looking at Roderick’s faint smile, Mnie feltplicated.


    “You can go home now. Take good care of Elias.”


    “Okay.”


    In the evening, Roderick came again with soup.


    It was said that Jennifer made the soup in person, and it was good for Mnie’s health.


    No one in the Harbour Vi dared to stop Roderick.


    Besides, Roderick saved Mnie.


    Everyone in the Robertson family could distinguish kindness and hatred clearly.


    After Roderick entered the door, he called Mnie “M” as usual, and then kept silent.


    He just stood there and stared at Mnie.


    Until Mnie stopped what she was doing, drank the soup and took the medicine.


    After the incident this time, Roderick became a regr guest of the Harbour Vi..


    He came two or three times a day. He was here in the morning, and woulde again at night.


    Sometimes Roderick came alone, and sometimes he came with Elias.


    But Elias preferred to stay in the Lambert Manor rather than the Harbour Vi because he had


    made friends there.


    “Mommy, when will my brotherse back?” Elias asked Mnie secretly.


    “I don’t know. Why? Did you miss them? Do you want me to send you back?”


    Mnie seized the opportunity to persuade Elias. Even if she allowed Roderick toe here, she


    had never nned to let Elias stay with the Lambert family forever.


    “No,” Elias immediately refused.


    “Mommy, I have a friend named Noah now. You’ll see him when you go to the Lambert Manor.”


    Mnie thought, ‘I’m not going to the Lambert Manor. Instead, I’ll find a way to get you out of there.


    But Mnie just replied, “Okay.”


    A few dayster, Mnie was surprised by the information that Darrin got.


    “You mean Owen and Steve were college ssmates and have known each other for many


    years?”


    “Yes.”


    “Did you get anything else?”


    “No.”


    Mnie frowned.


    She really didn’t know about it.


    Whether it was in the years when her mother was still alive, or the decade after her death, Mnie


    never knew that Steve had a ssmate who was a media tycoon, nor had she seen them meet or


    communicate.


    Mnie thought, ‘Why did Ryan mention my mother’s death? Did he know anything about it?‘


    Thinking of this, Mnie couldn’t sit still anymore and went to the hospital with. Darrin


    In a luxurious single ward of Beloris Hospital, Mnie saw Ryan who was


    incapacitated.


    Roderick was really bold and fierce.


    He directly chopped off Ryan’s hand and broke his knees. Ryan might not be able to stand up


    again.


    Seeing Ryan’s new arm, bandaged legs, and tolerant expression, Mnie burst intoughter.


    “Hahaha, Mr. Smith, now you’ve got what you wanted. Your legs areme and your arm is disabled.


    How are you gonna bully others afterward?”


    Ryan red at Mnie fiercely, but he didn’t dare to scold her at all.


    “Mr. Smith, about what you said about my mother that day. Is it true?”


    Mnie stood in front of the bed and grabbed the infusion tube.


    Ryan’s eyes shed with anger.


    “I know nothing about it. I just said it casually that day.”


    “Really? Then you’re quite good at talking. You said exactly what I want to hear.”


    Mnie snorted coldly. Then Darrin immediately stepped forward and pressed on Ryan’s injured


    knee.


    Ryan screamed in pain.


    Mnie grabbed an orange from the table and stuffed it into his mouth. His cry turned into a groan


    at once.


    Five minutester, Ryan’s face turned pale and his forehead was covered with


    sweat.


    Mnie took out the orange from his mouth and said indifferently, “If you refuse to tell me, I’ll let you


    enjoy for another ten minutes.”


    Ryan didn’t even have the strength to speak but just nodded.


    “Tell me, what do you know about my mother?”


    “I… I only heard that your father has been looking for a notebook that belongs to


    your mother.”


    “A notebook?”


    O


    Mnie remembered that her mother did have a habit of writing a diary by hand. She thought, ‘Is


    there anything in it that Steve is afraid of? Or something he needs?‘


    After thinking for a while, Mnie asked again, “Did the Smith family kill a group of gangsters in


    Solustria seven years ago?”


    “I really don’t know that. You have to ask my second younger brother. He has been in charge of our


    family’s affairs abroad.”


    “Your second younger brother?”


    “Yes, Connor Smith.”


    They tortured Ryan again. Seeing that he really didn’t know anything more, they finally stopped.


    A few dayster, Mnie went to Rising Star as usual.


    The Spring Auction wasing, and the collection of artworks had reached its final stage. As the


    CEO, Mnie couldn’t sit still and do nothing.


    While Mnie was dealing withpany affairs, Angie came back from shopping and brought a lot


    of delicious food.


    “Where did you go?”


    “Ahem, just some ordinary ces. I just hung out and bought food I wanted to eat. You know my


    temperament.”


    Angie made up a lie casually and didn’t reveal anything about her visits to several eye hospitals.


    “Why don’t you help me if you have time? You just y around all the time!” Mnie red at Angie


    and smeared cream on her nose.


    “No way. That’s Jeff’s job. How can I ruin his job? That’s not gonna happen.”


    Angie waved her hands and stuck out the tip of her tongue to lick the cream on her


    nose.


    Seeing that, Mnie scolded Angie and then took a tissue to wipe her nose clean.


    The two of them were having a good time when Jeff came in and hesitated to speak.


    “What? What’s wrong?”


    Mnie stopped smiling and became indifferent again at once.


    “Ms. Robertson, Steve Robertson is here. He insists on meeting you.”


    “No way, no way. Drive him out!”


    Angie jumped up from the sofa and said, “If you can’t drive him out, I’ll drive you


    out.”


    Jeff nced at Mnie, hurriedly promised and left.


    “Mnie, Steve is really bold. We haven’t gone to him, but he came to us first. How shameless is


    he!”


    Angie put her hands on her waist and spun around several times, looking mysterious.


    “Mnie, why don’t we hire someone to teach Steve a lesson?”


    “How are you gonna do that? It’s illegal to kill people.”


    Mnie stroked the porcin cup in her hand.


    “But now that Vanessa is lying in the hospital, it’s a good time to let others learn about this pair of


    father and daughter again.”


    Angie thought for a while and then said with a smile, “Okay. I’ll let Darrin get something from that


    old brat and give him a paternity test.”


    “Sure. Check it first and then arrange a great show afterward.”


    Mnie’s tone was leisurely, but her eyes were full of fierceness.

    Mnie carefully cut a part of her nail and put it in a small box. “Do one more test, by the way.”


    Angie was stunned for a second, but she didn’t say anything and just held the box


    in her hand..
