When Eloise said this, Kendrick and Sean looked at her at the same time.
Although Niamh had been referring to Len Samuels as her grandfather, it was clear that he was not Niamh’s real grandfather.
How could Eloise know Len Samuels?
“Eloise, have you really seen this name at home?” Sean was surprised.
Whether it was a servant or their relatives or friends, he was sure that none of them were named Len Samuels.
Eloise nodded with certainty. “With Diana!”
“Diana?” Kendrick frowned slightly.
“She’s our housekeeper. She has been working for us since her 20s. It has been 32 years.” Eloise explained. “I saw the name Len Samuels from her side.”
“Diana’s full name is Diana Samuels, and her surname is Samuels…” Saying this, Eloise’s emotions gradually became more agitated as a certain conjecture appeared in her heart.
“Sean, could it be that… We should go back and ask her about this clearly!”
Eloise hurriedly pulled Sean up and turned around.
Kendrick glanced at the tombstone, then at the couple who had left hurriedly. The conclusion to the suspicions in his heart had already been outlined.
He looked at the gloomy sky and saw a ray of sunlight streaming through the dark clouds.
God had in fact not been indifferent toward him.
……
Eloise and Sean were both upset on their way back.
The moment Eloise entered the living room after arriving home, Diana came out with a bowl of soup.
“Madam, you came back just in time. I’ve just made this soup for you. I’m truly sorry that I hurt you last time because of that horrid woman.” Diana apologized sincerely, but she did not forget to push the responsibility onto Niamh.
Eloise wanted to ask her straightforwardly, but seeing Diana apologize so sincerely, she calmed down and smiled.
“I know you didn’t mean it, but whether it’s Niamh or Vera, they’re not the bad women you seem to think they are.”
Diana’s eyes became fierce. “What Vera? She’s that b*tch Niamh. Don’t be fooled, Sir and Madam! That horrible woman killed Brittany. She should have died long ago!”
Hearing this, Eloise and Sean’s expressions darkened a lot. They could not accept anyone slandering their precious daughter so much.
What was more, Niamh was really innocent.
Brittany’s death three years ago had been proved to have nothing to do with her.
Although she was very dissatisfied, Eloise had to suppress her heart for the sake of polite conversation. “Diana, you really do love Brittany. I can’t compare myself to you as a mother sometimes.”
There would instantly be a warm and loving smile on Diana’s face whenever Brittany was brought up.
“I raised Ms. Brittany from when she was a child. Of course, I’d like such a beautiful, smart, and well- behaved child.” As she said this, her smile disappeared suddenly. Her eyes became extremely vicious while she gritted her teeth.
“That damned sl*t Niamh actually made such a cruel attack and stabbed Miss Brittany to death!”
Looking at the distorted flame of hatred in Diana’s eyes, Eloise and Sean glanced at each other. “The person who killed Brittany will definitely be punished so that they won’t do stupid things to hurt other innocent people,” Eloise spoke and patted Diana’s hand while smiling gently.
“You’re just in a bad mood. Do you want to go back to your hometown to rest for a bit? I recall your father is in your hometown. If I remember correctly, he’s called Len Samuels, right?”
Upon hearing the words ‘Len Samuels’, Diana’s eyes flashed with panic.
“Madam, I’m okay. You don’t have to worry about me. I… I have nothing to do now. I’m going to work first. Please remember to drink the soup,” Diana said with a gaping mouth before hurriedly turning around. She pulled on the apron twice with her flustered hands.
Seeing Diana’s weird reaction, Eloise faced Sean excitedly, her eyes filled with the urge to talk.
Sean also saw the clue. He held Eloise’s hand to comfort her. “It seems that this matter is really strange. She doesn’t seem to want to tell us the truth.”
“Then, what should I do now? I can’t wait for another moment!” Eloise was anxious. “Sean, I really can’t imagine what our baby girl experienced back then…”
Sean sighed with anger and pain. Suddenly, he thought of something and called Kendrick immediately.
Kendrick, who had just returned to the corporation, received Sean’s call. He listened to Sean’s request with some hesitation.
At this time, Niamh was carrying his lunch into his office.
Her smile was like a flower while her eyes were quick-witted, shining in his eyes like bright stars.
After hanging up the call, Kendrick got up and walked toward Niamh. “Vera, Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery want to invite us to their home tonight.”
Niamh’s actions of setting out his lunch paused slightly. “Why would they invite us to be their guest all of a sudden?”
“They have a request and hope you can help them.”
Kendrick looked at Niamh, then informed her of the specific content of the unreasonable demand.
Niamh turned around and pulled Kendrick’s tie with her slender fingers, revealing a womanly, charming, and lively smile.
“Looking at your face, I’ll agree.”
Kendrick’s eyes gently admired the bright face in front of him as his heartbeat accelerated more than a little…
At dusk, the light of the setting sun shone through the branches and was cut into pieces of gold as it sprinkled on the ground.
Niamh held Kendrick’s hand and they sweetly stepped through the Montgomeries’ door.
Eloise and Sean had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Niamh’s picturesque face coming into view, the eyes of the couple revealed yearning and joy.
This was all because this face was exactly the same as their baby girl’s.
They could no longer see that smile, and their remorseful spirits could only obtain a trace of comfort through this method now—even they knew that this was selfish.
Now, Eloise and Sean sincerely wanted to get close to Niamh.
“Miss Vera, Mr. Waldburg, please take a seat.” Eloise gave them a very warm welcome, her eyes fixed on Niamh’s face. “The more I look at Miss Vera, the prettier you look. I’m sorry to have to trouble you with things tonight.”
“Mrs. Montgomery, just call me Vera.” Niamh smiled but still felt the irony in her heart.
She used to stand in front of them with this face, but what she got was cruel treatment.
Human hearts were curious while human nature was even more unpredictable.
Diana, who was in the kitchen, heard some sounds and knew that the guests had arrived. She took a look and unexpectedly saw Niamh.
“She’s the distinguished guest that Madam mentioned?” Hatred and anger instantly lit up in Diana’s eyes. “What kind of distinguished guest is she?! This b*tch of a woman, how can she be even a tenth as distinguished as my daughter?!” Diana cursed, wishing to smash Niamh’s body into pieces. However, this time, she resisted.
Holding the freshly made soup, she walked over with a smile. When she reached Niamh, she apologized. “Miss Vera, I apologize. I got the wrong person last time and almost hurt you. I hope you won’t take it to heart. “
When Niamh heard this, she changed her generous and dignified attitude before raising her beautiful eyes arrogantly. “You again? Why are you still here? Mrs. Montgomery, why do you keep a servant like this? Have you forgotten about the incident where she made you lose so much blood till you were almost in trouble?”
Diana’s expression and eyes sunk upon hearing this.
“Diana has worked in our home for more than 30 years, after all. There would be no credit without hard work. I’ve put aside what happened last time.”
“A kind person will be deceived, Mrs. Montgomery. For some people, no matter how kind you treat them, there still would not be any harmony with them,” Niamh said indifferently as she glanced at the soup in front of her. “Did she make this soup? I don’t want to drink it. Who would be able to tell if she had laced it with something to hurt me again?”
“…” Diana lowered her head and gritted her teeth. “Ma’am, I’ll go back to the kitchen!”
