Chapter 148 “After finding out about her origins, the Murphy family offered Yvonne a hundred grand, but Yvonne didn’t bite. She just hoped to spend stwith Yolanda when she could However, Yolanda wasn't having any of it and didn’t want much to do with her.” “Yvonne tried to visit the Murphy family many times, but was shooed away by the help every time. Now, she’s in bad health, with no income, and no family or kids to look after her. It's kinda pitiful” “She ended up raising an ungrateful brat,” Arabella knew Yolanda’s character. Yolanda would just see her past as a humiliation, preferring to push Yvonne away to clamber up the social ladder! “Another odd thing is, the higher-ups from Mercy Hospital back then are all missing, and there’s no trace of them even in the archives.” “Now, all we can do is look for clues from Yvonne and other rescuers. But boss, brace yourself. The results may not cquickly.” “Mhm.* Arabella finished, felt her phone buzz. She glanced at the screen, it was Romeo calling. “Gotta take this.” After her call with Romeo and a shower, Arabella hit the sack.

In her dream, she seemed to be back at the Murphy family, watching a little girl holding Olga Murphy's hand, teary—eyed, asking, “Mama, when will you cback next time?” “Arabella, can you just stop? Your dad and | are up to our eyeballs in work every day. Do you think we're idle? Just because you have a fever, we should csee you?” Little Arabella felt wronged, crying softly, “I didn’t...” “Do you think your grandma would call us and force us to cback if you didn’t tell her? Do you know how much we have to put on hold every twe cback!” “Alright Olga, she’s just a kid,” Attlee Murphy tried to mediate.

“A kid?” Olga snapped, “Which kid manipulates us with the elders at such a young age? Look at how your mom spoils her! | tell you, Arabella, the more you do this, the more | dislike you! You are always crying, so annoying!” Watching Olga storm off, Attlee hurriedly followed, “Honey, don't be like this... The kid doesn’t know that her grandpa teft the company to us after his death, and that so many people in the company are trying to oust us, setting up roadblocks... She just misses us.” “This troublemaker, always causing us problems. If she’s so capable, why don’t she make us unnecessary to work, what can she do besides crying!” Little Arabella, wiping her tears, seemed to make up her mind. If she becomes better, helps the family to make money, would mom and dad not have to work so hard? Would they like her then? With the help of her grandpas, she excelled. Only then did she find out that the relationship between Grace Murphy and Olga was not good, there were even sunpleasant incidents over the shares...

Olga had no love for Grace, every tGrace was affectionate towards Arabella, Olga’s distaste for Arabella deepened...

Olga even thought of Arabella as a troublemaker, every tshe cback, there would be mistakes at work, hence she was less and less willing to chome. Throughout the years, Attlee and Olga seldom chome, the bond between them and Arabella was very weak.

Before, Olga disliked hearing Arabella cry, gradually, Arabella beca child who wouldn't cry. To outsiders, she even seemed a bit aloof, not keen on mingling with people. After a long time, Arabella opened her eyes again. It was already day outside.

She felt hollow inside.

She picked up her phone to check the time, it was only half past six. On the screen were a few unread messages from Romeo.

[Bella.] [I miss you so much that | can’t sleep.] [I want to hold you as | sleep.] The emptiness in Arabella’s heart seemed to be filled with something, the sense of loss was gone, replaced by a faint feeling of happiness.
