She had fallen in love at first sight and was already hopelessly lost in Gideon’s tenderness.

Gideon told Elara in a defeated tone that his company owed too much debt, more than he could ever repay in a lifetime.

Elara said she would find a way to solve the money problem.

Josephine was very curious to see what solution Elara would come up with…

She contacted a private detective she had worked with before and asked him to have two people follow Elara and Wilfred.

After arranging all this, her phone rang.

It was a call from Zoey.

Zoey’s words were filled with barely concealed happiness and relief:

“Madam… oh no, Josie, Belinda asked me about your birthday on her own initiative, and even bought you a necklace as a gift. It’s the minimalist style you like, with just a single diamond.”

“Belinda has finally grown up a little. I just couldn’t help but want to share this with you. But will it spoil the surprise?”

“Just pretend you don’t know, okay?”

After hanging up Zoey’s call, Josephine found her feelings hard to describe.

Happy? Not really.

Surprised? There did seem to be a faint warmth welling up inside her.

But thinking of everything that had happened in the past, she told herself not to have any hopes for Belinda.

As long as Belinda didn’t stab her in the heart, that would be the best birthday present she could ask for.

The next day, St. Estella Hospital.

When Belinda bought the necklace for Josephine, she forgot to change the delivery address.

The necklace was sent to Rose Manor.

Belinda asked a servant to bring the necklace to the hospital.

When the servant arrived at the hospital, not knowing which ward Belinda was in, she handed the package to Helena.

Important information about a person–those who love you will remember it, and those who hate you will never forget it either.

Helena belonged to the latter.

When she saw that Belinda’s package contained a diamond necklace, she guessed it was a birthday gift for Josephine.

Seven years ago, Josephine had just started dating Wilfred when her birthday came around.

October 8th.

Wilfred said it was a wonderful day and chose it to break ground and build Rose Manor for Josephine.

At that time, she was only sixteen, sitting in Wilfred’s Bentley.

She watched Wilfred give Josephine roses, holding Josephine as if he had gained the whole world.

She was consumed with jealousy.

It was also that night that she realized Wilfred was no longer hers–he had been taken away by a woman named Josephine…

Helena’s fingernails dug a hole into the delivery box.

She changed her grip on the box and walked into the ward with a gentle smile.

“Sweetheart, your package has arrived. What nice thing did you buy? Tell Auntie Helena.”

Belinda lowered her eyes, her gaze flickering uncertainly.

“I… I bought a necklace for my doll.”

“Can Auntie Helena have a look?”

Belinda hesitated a little, but still nodded.

“Wow, what a beautiful necklace! Sweetheart, you have such great taste. Your doll is so lucky to have such a delicate and beautiful necklace to wear…”

Belinda’s mood was instantly lifted; her gift had been aflirmed.

Wouldn’t that mean her mother would also appreciate it?

Helena glanced at Belinda and began her gentle persuasion:

“I really love the necklace Belinda picked. I wonder if Belinda could give it to me?”

Zoey coughed, banging the table with a rag from the side to remind Belinda.

Belinda looked up, glancing at Zoey, then at Helena, her face full of conflict.

She was like a little mouse, standing at a crossroads.

One path led to cheese, but a cat was guarding it.

The other path had no cat, but nothing to eat either.

She gripped the necklace tightly in her hand, handed it to Helena a little, then pulled it back.

Helena covered her mouth and yawned tiredly, then stroked Belinda’s face:

“It’s okay. If you don’t want to give it to Auntie Helena, it won’t make Auntie Helena like you any less.”

Belinda thought of how, when she had a fever, Helena stayed by her side without eating or drinking.

She also saw the dark circles under Helena’s eyes from taking care of her, and felt guilty. Helena’s eyes remained fixed on the necklace, as if she truly loved it to the extreme. Belinda thought, after all, her mother wouldn’t take Natalia back just because of a necklace.

But Auntie Helena had always been by her side.

Putting aside the birthday aspect, Auntie Helena was actually more suited to have the necklace she bought than her mother.

“Auntie Helena, I’ll give it to you.”

In the end, Belinda still put the necklace around Helena’s neck.

Zoey, furious, threw the rag into the trash can.
