Chapter 965
For the value of this set of jewelry that Adeena wore four years ago to be worth more than all her belongings... Especially the Heart of the Ocean. The people of Cloud City have heard this name, but no one had ever seen it before.
“She‘s not an ordinary person,” Jada said coolly, “Because we had to treat your illness, your father and I stashed away her possessions for fear that her family would come to retrieve her. But your illness has gotten better, so I‘ve decided to help Adeena find her family. I also don‘t want her to call me mother in vain.”
“Mom, don‘t you think she may have stolen all these?”
“Who would wear stolen things in public?” Jada asked. “She is also acting so naturally about it, so she‘s most likely not the daughter of an ordinary family.”
“If that‘s the case, then all the more reason that we can‘t let her marry into the Finnian family and come into contact with more powerful families.” Ruth had a cunning glint in her eye.
“If she found her family, they would thoroughly investigate the past four years. By then, we won‘t be able to hide that she almost died when her blood was completely changed, and we can‘t hide how that led to the premature death of her baby, either.”
Jada pursed her lips. “Aside from the three of us, no one else knows about this matter...”
It was precisely because it had been four years since the incident, and all records of the surgery had been destroyed, hence why she allowed Adeena to marry into the Finnian family...
And she had been having endless nightmares for the past four years.
To cure her biological daughter‘s illness, she drew out all of Adeena‘s blood and even indirectly killed her baby. Hence, there was always a child in her nightmares.
She had been plagued by her nightmares for four years and had never gotten a good night‘s sleep during that time.
Once Adeena was married, through the connections of the Finnian family, she would have access to the more powerful families of Cloud City. Then, she would be able to find her family.
