Niamh froze when she was pouring a glass of water.
He had investigated her.
That was why he knew Lillian’s name.
However, the fortunate thing was Felipe had made some changes to the DNA report. That was why Kendrick got rid of his suspicion toward her.
As she pondered, she saw Kendrick picking Lillian up.
He was a cold person and was unapproachable. However, there was a warm smile on his cold and resolute face at this moment.
On the other hand, Lillian had always resisted strangers. However, she was only so close to Kendrick.
Was it because they were connected by blood?
‘If it’s really because of blood relation, then why can’t my birth mother feel my presence?’
Niamh spaced out, and the hot water burned her.
At the same time, Eloise’s finger was also cut by the metallic part of the jewelry when she was choosing accessories for Nevaeh in a shop. There was a thin bloody line on her finger.
The manager kept apologizing to her and took care of her wound for her.
After a while, Eloise left the shop with two jewelry boxes.
Eloise knew that Nevaeh was feeling down these few days. Her groom had left with another woman during her wedding ceremony.
She wanted to invite Nevaeh to come with her so that she would feel better. However, Nevaeh said she was not in the mood. As her mother, Eloise understood. As such, she came out alone to buy some jewelry to surprise her.
As long as her daughter was happy, she would not mind a wound on her finger.
However, when she was about to call the driver to drive her home, she saw Nevaeh and Rose walking to the elevator while holding hands.
She wanted to call out to Nevaeh, but it would look bad to yell in public, so she decided to call her instead.
The call went through, and she saw Nevaeh taking out her phone.
She thought Nevaeh would pick up the phone, but she saw her looking at the caller ID with disdain instead. Then, Nevaeh tossed her phone back into her bag and continued walking into the elevator with Rose. They were chatting happily in the process.
Eloise was stunned when she saw that. She could not even react as she was holding her phone.
However, she quickly found an excuse for Nevaeh. It was because she was not in the mood. It was because Nevaeh was raised by Rose, so that was why they were so close to each other.
Despite that, Eloise still felt uneasy. She saw the elevator stopping on the third floor. She followed them to the third floor as well. However, she eventually lost Nevaeh and Rose.
She looked for them in every shop. Finally, when she walked past a tattoo shop, she heard Rose’s voice.
Upon taking a closer look, it was indeed Rose.
She was puzzled. This was a tattoo shop, so what were Rose and Nevaeh doing here?
Was Nevaeh here for a tattoo?
Was it because she was so in love with Kendrick that she wanted to tattoo his name on her body?
After contemplating, she was about to walk in.
However, when she stepped forward, she heard Rose talking happily to someone on the phone. “Don’t worry, I’ve asked someone to ask about this a long time ago. The owner of this tattoo shop is very skilled, so the Montgomeries will definitely not notice. Plus, Nevaeh is just doing a touch-up. Nothing will go wrong.”
When Eloise heard this, she stopped in her tracks.
‘The Montgomeries won’t notice?
‘What can’t the Montgomeries see?’
Eloise’s heart was racing. She was feeling frenetic.
Half an hour later, Nevaeh and Rose walked out.
Eloise was hiding at one side. When she saw Nevaeh, she only saw that she was in high spirits. There was no trace of sadness on her face.
She watched in disbelief as Nevaeh walked further away. Then, she came back to her senses and walked into the tattoo shop.
Eloise found a photo of Nevaeh on her phone and asked the staff there. “What did this woman do just now?”
The staff rejected her with a serious look on his face. “We can’t reveal our customers’ confidential information to protect their privacy.”
Then, Eloise generously took out 500 dollars in cash. The staff’s eyes lit up as he took the money. “Oh, that woman. The color on her tattoo has faded, so she’s just here for a touch-up.”
Tattoo? Touch-up?
Eloise was confused.
‘Does Nevaeh have a tattoo?’
She had never seen any tattoos on Nevaeh in all these years of interacting with her.
Was it on some intimate part of her body? Was that why Nevaeh did not want her to find out because she was worried they would lecture her?
When she thought about this, Eloise felt that it was reasonable. However, she felt slightly devastated.
“You stupid child, so what if you have a tattoo? How would I blame you?”
Eloise let out a sigh of relief. She did not think too much about it and was not bothered about why Nevaeh had purposely not answered her phone just now.
Half an hour later, Nevaeh and Eloise went back to Montgomery Manor together.
Eloise went to Nevaeh’s room like nothing ever happened. She gave her the expensive jewelry that she bought just now.
Even though Nevaeh had been living the life of a rich young lady, she was still as avaricious as before. She could not hide her joy.
“Mom, you’re so good to me.” She played her part as an obedient daughter.
Eloise patted her shoulder to comfort her, saying, “You’re my only daughter. So no matter what you do, I’ll always support you and protect you.”
Eloise was hinting at her. She was hoping that Nevaeh would tell her about her tattoo and not just depend on her adoptive mother, Rose.
Of course, Nevaeh would not understand the hidden meaning of this sentence. She put on her gorgeous jewelry and packed a few sets of clothes.
“Mom, I’ve thought about it. Even though my wedding with Kendrick was cut short, everyone still knows that we’re married. So, from this day onward, I’ll be moving in with him.”
Eloise’s expression changed. “Nevaeh, do you truly like Kendrick so much? He’s not worthy of you.”
“Kendrick is the man I love the most in this lifetime. He’s amazing. He’s just confused by that Vera Quinn. One day, Kendrick will finally realize that I’m the woman who deserves his love the most,” Nevaeh said sensibly, “Plus, I want to give Jack a complete family.”
After Nevaeh said that, Eloise did not stop her.
Nevaeh brought her luggage to Kendrick’s place. She did not have the keys, so the maid opened the door for her.
The maid had heard about Nevaeh and Kendrick’s wedding. When she saw Nevaeh, she called out flatteringly, “Madam, you’re back.”
Nevaeh was delighted when she heard that.
Even though their wedding was ruined, she still got her status.
Who in Glendale did not know that Nevaeh Delgado was Kendrick’s wife?
Nevaeh sauntered upstairs. When she wanted to go into Kendrick’s room, she realized that it was locked.
At this moment, noises were coming from downstairs. “Sir, you’re back. Madam has just come back as well.”
“Madam?” Kendrick frowned while looking at the smiling woman next to him.
