Chapter: 627
“Mrs. Wilson used to record everything in that notebook. After she died, I lost track of it and eventually forgot about it After Calvin and Bernice died in a car accident, everything in the villa should have been cleared away. But, after the funeral, before Iker and his family could start cleaning, Gilda had returned with the paternity test report and stopped them from touching anything in the villa.
That was why the villa has remained untouched all these years.
Norah's slim fingers tightened around the notebook before she passed it to Gilda.
"Keep this for me. Hand it over when we return. And arrange for someone to clean up the villa. I'm thinking of moving back here eventually."
She wiped her tears, maintaining her composure and self-control.
Yet, beneath her calm exterior, sadness and remorse lingered.
She had hardly had a chance to know her parents before they left her forever.
“By the way, are you aware of the original contents of the villa? I just checked and noticed that Iker and his family ‘borrowed’ a lot of things. Keep an eye on them when they come back to return everything later."
Gilda responded with a nod. "Sure. But it's odd. Why would they decide to return what they've taken? That seems out of character."
Whenever Gilda and Chayce felt nostalgic about Calvin and Bernice, they would visit the villa.
They noticed that various decorations and antiques were missing, but they didn't say anything.
They didn't really have the authority to speak up. After all, they were merely assistants. Interfering with those items might have led to criticism against them.
So, they chose to overlook it.
Now that Norah mentioned it, they felt a sense of relief. Norah's concern for Calvin and Bernice's belongings, treating them as her own, was comforting.
Gilda believed that if Norah could reclaim her rightful place in the Wilson family, her parents' legacy wouldn't go to waste.
Now Gilda and Chayce felt relieved, as long as Norah's life went well.
Gilda fought hard to keep her tears at bay, telling herself she shouldn't cry.
Surviving in the Wilson household required more than just good manners.
“Are you departing, Miss Norah?"
“Yes. I've gathered the information I needed. Inform me if anything new arises."
Chayce handed Norah a set of business cards, their silver text shining.
Above her name, "the Wilson family" was written in small letters, yet it still caught the eye.
Chayce said, "Miss Norah, we made these business cards just like you asked. If you hand them out, people will think you're part of the Wilson family in Glophia."
Her family had kept a low profile for years, remaining largely unnoticed by many.
