“So, her name is Alice Peterson.”
But that was strange.
She was certain she did not have a twin sister.
But how come the woman named Alice Peterson, looked exactly like how she used to before the accident?
“She’s Alice Peterson, but she’s also Bethan Peterson.”
Cynthal changed into a more comfortable position and leaned on the bed. “Ms. Bethan, can you guess, among the two of us, which one of us will be the first to leave?”
Bethan glanced at her, then turned and returned to her bed and lay down.
She did not have time for Cynthal.
She needed to organize her thoughts.
This woman named Alice Peterson… who was she?
In the children’s room at Blue Bay Villa.
Nellie lay on her bed, buried her head beneath her pillow, and wept for a long time.
Lily patted her on the back helplessly and comforted her. “Ms. Nellie, don’t cry… crying won’t help solve the problem…”
At her words, Nellie’s cries intensified. “Nigel, what do you think?”
Neil remained calm, sitting at the desk in the distance, talking to Nigel who was far away across the oceans through the computer. “This woman knows a lot about our family. But her knowledge of us is not detailed enough. She said that Mommy kidnapped her two children, but she didn’t know… we’re actually triplets.”
On the other end of the computer, Neil leaned on the headboard of the bed, his fingers travelling across the keyboard smoothly.
There were three monitors in front of him.
He was conversing with Neil through one of them.
On another monitor, the CCTV footage of Blue Bay Villa and the jail cell was being played.
And the final monitor displayed Alice’s personal information.
“She came prepared.”
Reading through Alice’s information, Nigel’s brows furrowed together sharply. “All of her information has been well-crafted. She was injured in Banyan City, then migrated overseas for medical reasons… You can tell her information has been purposely crafted, but the person who did it obviously didn’t know Mommy had already given birth. Maybe she thought Mommy was dead, so she only faked her identity. She only knew about Mommy’s pregnancy after she came to Banyan City and someone here told her, otherwise she wouldn’t omit to state this in her information.”
Neil nodded.
“She shou1d’ve predicted this possibility a long time ago. Even though Idiot Morrison was an idiot, his public image is that he remains loyal to Mommy. If I’m a woman, I would want to become the woman he cherishes in his heart and obtain his love.”
Nigel sighed, “You’re still so young and yet you can already read the minds of women fighting for attention.”
Neil pouted. “Stop making fun of me. The most urgent issue now is to get Mommy out of jail.”
“Yeah.”
Nigel nodded. “We can’t control the inflow and outflow of human traffic in the prison, we can’t let Mommy stay there for too long. Things would turn bad if they tortured Mommy and forced her to admit to kidnapping us! “
“But what can we do now…”
At the mention of this, Neil could not help but sigh, losing confidence. “All Idiot Morrison can see now is that evil woman, he will listen to everything she says.”
Right when her two brothers were stuck in their worries, Nellie sniffed and climbed out of the bed.
The little girl wiped her tears away. “I have a way to get Mommy out…”
“Brettley, I missed you so much.”
In the bedroom back at the villa, Alice closed the door and hugged Brettley tightly from behind.
“All these years out there, a few times, I almost wanted to give up, but at the thought of you and the children… You’re my motivation that kept me alive… Luckily the children and I are back at your side now.”
Her tears soaked through Brettley’s shirt and into his bare back.
His heart felt as if it had been harshly grabbed and squeezed by an invisible hand.
He turned and pulled her into his arms. “Don’t worry, from now on, I won’t let you suffer anymore.”
“Okay.”
Alice sniffed, “I hope the woman that stole our children… will soon be punished by the law.”
She lay on his chest, her tears falling in rivulets. “
You saw the situation too, Nellie and Neil are both on her side, they don’t even want to acknowledge me as their mother. The sooner she’s convicted, the sooner the children will grow to accept me…”
Brettley frowned.
The hopelessness that was written on her face when she was taken away by the police appeared before his eyes.
His heart skipped a beat.
Then, a moment later, he sighed, “We should take this slow, study the case in detail.”
Somehow, even though there was solid physical evidence, he still felt that Bethan had a valid reason behind all these.
Back then, how she saved Nellie and protected Neil, he saw all of it clearly with his own two eyes.
Even though her actions could not compensate for her evil deeds, the children still cared deeply about her.
If he tried to get rid of this issue as fast as possible, he might leave a bad impression on the children.
Alice frowned in displeasure. She lay on his chest. “
But I think the children won’t like me as long as she’s here…”
“You should trust our children.”
Brettley softly ruffled her hair. “Be a good girl.”
She hesitated for a second. “Alright.”
Then, she raised her head and circled her arms around his neck, her eyes gentle. “Brettley, I’ve missed you so much.”
The air was filled with anticipation.
In front of him was the face of the woman he had been missing for six years.
Brettley found it hard to control himself, he leaned down and instinctively tried to kiss her…
But when their lips were two centimeters away from touching, he stopped.
Maybe they had been apart for too long.
In a split second, he found he could not kiss the woman in front of him.
“Daddy! “
Suddenly, a child’s clear voice rang out from the entrance.
Brettley hurriedly raised his head.
Nellie stood at the entrance, her eyes red and puffy. “I want to sleep with you tonight.”
Alice frowned in displeasure. “Nellie, you’re already six years old. Once a girl grows up, she can’t sleep in the same bed with her Daddy anymore.”
“Who said I’ve grown up, I’m still a kid! “
Then, she glared at Alice harshly. “I insist on sleeping with my Daddy, why are you jealous?”
Brettley chuckled helplessly at the little girl’s words.
He stood up and walked to the door, heaving her into his arms. “Which mother will be jealous of her daughter? Daddy will accompany you tonight.”
Hearing him, Alice bit her lip, piling a pitiful expression on her face. “But Brettley, tonight is our first night together in six years…”
