Grace, however, caught on to the housekeeper's words and casually asked, "You've been working for the Landon family for many years, haven't you? That also makes you a long-time member of the household."
The housekeeper nodded. "I've been with the Landon family since Ms. Jessica was very young. It's been almost 20 years."
Grace and Xander exchanged glances. She continued, "So you must have watched Jessica grow up!"
The housekeeper smiled and nodded as if reminiscing about the past.
"Ms. Jessica had always been obedient and attentive when she was young. She always listened to Mr. and Mrs. Landon.
"She has also excelled in her studies since she was little. She was their pride and joy. Ms. Jessica would be happiest if they were still here, but ..."
At this point, the housekeeper couldn't help but sigh. "Mr. and Mrs. Landon unfortunately passed away. They lost their lives in a car accident five years ago.
"As for Ms. Jessica, although she survived that accident, she spent nearly two years in the hospital. Since then, she hasn't been able to overcome her grief, and her entire personality has changed."
"You're saying that Jessica spent two years in the hospital after the car accident? And you've been taking care of her all this time?"
The housekeeper nodded reluctantly. "The accident had a significant impact on her. There was no other choice."
She paused, hesitant to speak further. Then, she changed the subject. "Did Ms. Jessica ask you to fetch a drawing for her?"
Grace nodded. "Yes. We would appreciate it if you could help us retrieve one."
The housekeeper nodded. "Of course, it's just that she has many design drawings, and I'm not sure which one you're looking for. Let me go and get them for you."
