Mysterious Little Wife novel Chapter 14

It was seven o'clock in the evening.

In the GH presidential office stood Sam and Asa.

"Mr. Garrison, we've gathered information on her. Her name is Lacey Carter, Lillianna's twin sister!" Asa handed the file to Sam.

Sam didn't appear to have much of a reaction. He responded indifferently, continuing to work on the task at hand.

At this sight, Asa quietly retreated and closed the door.

Sam put down his pen after signing the last page of the contract. 

Only then did he pick up the document that Asa had sent.

"Lacey Carter, a 20-year-old who attends Seaside University in Klosa."

" She is the twin of Lillianna Carter. Born to Bailey Carter and his ex-wife, Maria Francis."

"The couple later divorced, and each raised one of their daughters."

"Maria, who had received no compensation for cheating on her husband during their marriage, moved to Klosa with her lover."

"Lacey was raised with a lack of upbringing. She had done theft, told lies, and was greedy. She had two abortions in junior high and a private life that was exceptionally chaotic."

"Acting is her usual trick."

"A year ago, Maria was diagnosed with gastric cancer and was dumped by her lover."

"For a long time, the mother and daughter had been in dire straits. It was only because of Lillianna's help that Maria was later admitted to the hospital."

"Six months ago, Lacey was exposed to be a mistress. As a result, she was forced to sell her house and relocate with her mother to South City."

Sam frowned as he read the contents.

He then tossed the folder into the trash.

On the other side, Carter's house.

"What?" Lillianna came to Madeleine Brooks as soon as she got home. "Mom, did you just say he was looking into Lacey?"

"That's right. He must have met Lacey. Otherwise, he wouldn't have investigated her!" Madeleine said faintly as she sat on the sofa, sipping her coffee.

Lillianna grew anxious at this point. She hastily asked, "He's been to the hospital a lot lately. Meaning, he must have seen her there! Mom, what then? Will he take an interest in her and find out that she was the one pretending to be me that night?"

Madeleine put down her coffee and said with a straight face, "How many times have I told you, Lillianna, that when things go wrong, don't panic! You are the daughter of a wealthy family. You must maintain your cool at all times!"
