The Ultimate Reborn Heiress
Chapter 125 Recall the Memories
What about Matthew?
Over a failed investment plan, he blamed his daughter.
In the end, the only person he cared about was himself.
A heavy emptiness spread through Leona’s chest.
If she were the one who messed up a partnership, he would probably hit her, too.
Had he ever truly loved her at all?
Even that so–called devotion pill couldn’t cancel out his cold, selfish nature.

After Zoey left, Scarlett didn’t rush to cultivate.
She sat on the couch, trying to sort through cause and effect.
She could no longer use the glimpse of fate anymore, but she still had other methods.
Maybe she could uncover what really happened back then.
From Matthew’s reaction, it was obvious he had done something unforgivable to Daphne.
It wasn’t just cheating and divorce.
Cheating alone wouldn’t make someone want another person dead.
What Scarlett said earlier had clearly hit a nerve.
Either he once wanted her mother dead, or her mother’s accident was tied to him.
In truth, those two were essentially the same,
If he caused her mother’s condition, then wanting her gone now made sense,
A living witness was dangerous.
Scarlett had only been about five when the accident happened.
That day, she wasn’t home–she was at kindergarten.
But she clearly remembered Matthew claiming he made his fortune by finding two antiques at his old house.
Yet she had been there many times as a child.
There was nothing inside. The place was rundown, the roof caved in, and everything was rotting and
ruined.

There was no way antiques could still be there.
The only explanation was that the antiques came from the Sanchez Residence.

Scarlett shut her eyes and began replaying everything inside that house over those two days.
If she could remember all the items from the day before her mother’s accident and compare them to the day of the accident, she’d know what was missing.
Her spiritual power was extremely strong.
Even though she had been young and didn’t consciously remember, she could now retrieve anything she had seen or heard back then with her spiritual power.
Scarlett closed her eyes and recalled the day before the accident.
Her mother had gently woken her up, made her breakfast, and walked her to kindergarten. Smiling, she asked, “Scarlett, what do you want for dinner tonight? I’ll make it for you.”
That evening, her mother picked her up from kindergarten.
In the kitchen, Daphne cooked Scarlett’s favorite barbecue ribs.
Tears slid down Scarlett’s face as her eyes remained closed.
She remembered every detail from that day—even how the dishes were placed in the kitchen.
Then she recalled the following night. She came home from kindergarten and was told her mother had been in an accident. Hendrix had taken her to the hospital.
Only Patrick was home, watching over her and Rory. She cried and begged to go to the hospital.
Her grandfather tried to comfort her for a long time.
She kept crying.
She followed him into the kitchen while he cooked.
Compared to the day before, two plates were gone.
Scarlett’s eyes flew
open.
Her spiritual power had been pushed too far, and her face was ghostly pale.
She still remembered what those plates looked like.
She picked up her phone and searched online.
One was a polychrome frostglaze fruit plate, and the other was a blue–and–white blossom plate.
Both were antiques.
The Sanchez Residence owned many similar plates.

But most likely, only those two were valuable antiques.
If even two were missing, the Sanchezes would have noticed immediately.
So Matthew had never found antiques at his old house.
He stole them from the Sanchez Residence, and Daphne must have found out.
Scarlett murmured, “So it was really you.”
The same day those two plates disappeared, her mother became a vegetable.
That couldn’t be a coincidence.
Most likely, her mother caught Matthew stealing and chased after him.
And he cruelly ran her down.
He was the one who destroyed her mother.
Cold rage spread across Scarlett’s face.
Matthew had ruined her mother and crushed her grandfather.
