“Yes, he signed the contract with Enlight Media without hesitation. The term of the contract is five
years. If he breaches the contract, the liquidated damages will be enough to make him bankrupt,” Gabe
said and couldn‘t help wanting to laugh at the mention of Scott
Compared with Mr. Wright, Scott is still too simple and innocent Mr. Wright almost took no effort to let
his rival in love become his employee.
“I don‘t want him to breach the contract,” Wayne said leisurely. “Isn‘t it better that he works in the
company all the time and makes money for me?”
Hearing this, Gabe was a little stunned and then couldn‘t help but sympathize with Scott
more.
Scott is so pitiful that he not only became Mr. Wright‘s employee but also has to work to make money
for Mr. Wright. Moreover, he can only get a minority of the money to support himself while most of the
money he makes will belong to Mr. Wright.
In the Gabriel‘s House.
Anna specially chose to go home on Monday noon so that she wouldn‘t see Allie because Allie would
go to work on weekdays. Her stepmother Shirley was not a good person but would be polite to her and
would not make things difficult for her.
Anna decided that she would leave as soon as she got the key. “Miss Anna!”
Seeing Anna, Harriet, an old maid of the Gabriel family, almost burst into tears. She said excitedly,
“Miss Anna, you are finally back. Where have you been all these years?”
Harriet had worked for Anna‘s mother for many years. After Anna‘s mother died, she had been taking
care of Anna Later, Anna came back to Gabriel‘s House and she also came here.
When Anna saw Harriet, the rims of her eyes turned red. She held Harriet‘s hand and said in a choked
voice, “Auntie Harriet, I‘ve been back from abroad for some time. It‘s just that I didn‘t come back home.
I‘m sorry to make you worried about me.”
“That‘s all right. You must have suffered a lot these years. If your mother knew that, she would blame
me for not taking good care of you.”
“I‘m fine, Auntie Harriet. Don‘t worry about me,” Anna said gently.
“Anna?” Suddenly, a woman‘s voice interrupted the conversation between Anna and Harriet
It was Shirley
Standing on the stairs in a blue and gray dress, she looked elegant. Since she was well-preserved, she
looked like she was only thirty years old.
The moment when she saw Anna, she was astonished. But she quickly recovered her composure and
said enthusiastically as she went downstairs, “Anna, long time no see. You should tell me in advance
before you came back so that I can ask the maid to prepare your
You Are not Her… favorite food.”
Anna let go of Harriet‘s hand and said, “I just came back to fetch something. I‘ll leave as soon as I get
it. Don‘t bother, Auntie Shirley.”
For so many years, she had been calling Shirley aunt
Shirley had ever complained to Frank that she took Anna as her own daughter and treated her well but
Anna didn‘t appreciate her at all and didn‘t call her Mom,
However, Frank just said, “You are not her mother. She is polite enough to call you aunt”
Hearing that, Shirley was angry but didn‘t dare to lose her temper in front of Frank But after Frank went
out, she smashed a lot of things in the house and hit and scolded the maids in her bedroom. “I‘m not
her mother? Then don‘t expect me to be good to her anymore!” she cursed.
Anna had always known how phoney Shirley was since she was a child. And she always felt helpless
at the thought that Frank still couldn‘t see through Shirley‘s hypocrisy after they had been married for
so many years.
After exchanging the usual pleasantries with Shirley, Anna went upstairs and Shirley didn‘t stop her.
Her room looked as same as before. After entering the room, Anna opened the drawer on the right side
of her desk.
The next moment, she frowned when she found that the key was not in the drawer. She remembered
that she had put the key in it back then.
Someone must have taken it away.
“Did you find your stuff?” Seeing Anna go downstairs, Shirley stood up from the sofa and asked gently
“No,” Anna answered straightforwardly. “Auntie, the key to my house is not in my room. Did anyone
take it away?”
Shirley‘s smile froze and there was a hint of fluster on her face. Then she deliberately asked with a
puzzled look, “The key to your house? What house?”
“Dad gave me a house in Golden Ocean Community six years ago. I put the key to the house in my
room but now it‘s missing.”
“Oh, I don‘t know about it,” Shirley said with an innocent look. “I never go to your room. Harriet often
enters the room to clean it, and sometimes your father goes there and stays there for a while. You may
ask your father about the key. Maybe he put it away for you.”
“Okay. I see.” Anna didn’t say anything more.
When she was about to leave, Shirley said, “Anna, why don‘t you stay for lunch? I‘ve asked the cook to
cook your favorite dishes.”
With her back to Shirley, Anna suddenly felt a little irritable when hearing that. Then she said, “If I stay
for lunch, I‘m afraid you will lose your appetite.”
“Anna, what are you talking about? How is it possible…”
“Why isn‘t it possible?” Anna turned around and interrupted Shirley. “My father is not at home. You don‘t
have to pretend to be kind and innocent. My father can‘t see through you and
Chapter 77 You Are not Her. your daughter but I can.”
After saying that, Anna left the house without hesitation,
Shirley‘s face darkened at once. Clenching the backrest of the sofa angrily, she turned to stare at
Harriet who was standing at the door, and asked, “What did you say to her?”
Lowering her head, Harriet answered with a certain coldness in her manner, “Miss Anna stayed here
for only a few minutes. What could I say to her?”
“I mean, what did you say to her in the past?”
“In the past?” Harriet said as she raised her head and stared at Shirley, which made Shirley feel a chill.
“Mrs. Gabriel, you still remember what happened in the past? I thought you‘d forgotten it.”
When Shirley heard this, her hands couldn‘t help trembling and she thought, Anna has known
everything? No wonder… No wonder she never came home in the past years! Why does she suddenly
come back today? Now she has Wayne backing her up. What does she want to do?
After getting out of Gabriel‘s House, Anna took a taxi and left, still feeling irritable.
Back then, Anna was born prematurely and her mother died of hemorrhage a few days after her birth.
And it was not until the year Anna was admitted to Birmingham Medical University that Harriet told her
the truth about her premature birth.
If Shirley hadn‘t gone to Mom‘s place and provoked her, Mom wouldn‘t have gone into labor early and
died, Anna thought.
After Anna went to university, she seldom went home even if her university was in Birmingham
because she didn‘t want to see Shirley
Her mother had been dead, and it was meaningless to blame Shirley or hold her accountable for what
she had done.
But whenever Anna saw Shirley and Allie, she would remember her mother‘s death and feel sorry for
her mother. Therefore, she decided to keep away from them.
Sitting in the taxi, Anna calmed herself down, took out her phone, and wanted to call Frank. But
somehow, she suddenly remembered Shirley‘s flustered look just now and thought of a possibility.
“Sir, please take me to Golden Ocean Community first,” she said to the driver.
Dad must have ordered the others in the family not to move everything in my room. Since I‘ve told him I
would go back home to fetch the key, he would not take it away. But now the key is missing, which
means that someone else in the family took it away secretly.
