Worship The Ground You Walk On novel Chapter 51

Claudia sat alone on the floating French windowsill of the empty and silent room, looking at the distant scenery.

It was gloomy outside and was going to rain.

The last time she saw her mother was when she was three-month pregnant. Now it had been more than one hundred days since she gave birth to Conrad, but she did not see her mother again...

Claudia was more and more missing her mother and became upset.

When the housekeeper went upstairs to deliver the fruit, he saw Claudia sitting quietly alone and lost in thought, so he sighed, went over and said, “Ma’am, is something bothering you?”

Claudia was so immersed in her own thoughts that she did not notice the housekeeper coming close. He suddenly spoke up and startled her.

The housekeeper hurriedly apologized, “Sorry, Ma'am. I'm sorry to disturb you!”

She shook her head and got up in a panic, but left the photo in her arms on the ground.

It was a photo of her childhood. Her mother held her, and she put her arms around her mother’s neck with a sweet smile.

The housekeeper saw it at once and leaned down to pick it up for her, handing it to Claudia. He said, “Ma’am, you’re thinking about Mrs. Evans. Right? You can go back to visit her any time!”

After a pause, the housekeeper added, “Don't worry about Conrad. We'll take good care of him.”

Claudia saw that the housekeeper looked at her sincerely, without the any mockery and sarcasm. His remarks were so warm and soft as if offering her fuel in snowy weather.

She bowed her head and took the photo.

What he said was reasonable. Claudia repeatedly and seriously thought about it, and could not hold back the thoughts. So she took her coat and bag and went out.

The housekeeper and housekeeper would take good care of Conrad. It was OK to go out for just a day.

When she arrived at the Evans family, the entrance door was ajar, and the nanny was not there.

The empty house was quite quiet.

She stepped inside and heard someone talking upstairs in the study. It was a man's voice.

“Wow! I didn’t see this coming! Mrs. Crawford!”

She heard a sharp female voice from the distance. The obvious satiric tone intruded into her eardrums.

Amber came down from upstairs and saw her just in time.

“What brings you here, Mrs. Crawford? You're so delicate and shouldn’t come to our small house. Be careful. We can't afford to take responsibility if you are injured here!”

Amber sneered sarcastically, and her words were not polite.

Claudia did not look at her directly and simply gestured, “Where's Aunt Blair? I would like to ask her something.”

They are sisters who grew up together, so Amber knew sign language from a very young age.

She grunted coldly and then added, “What are you looking for my mom for? If you have something to say, just talk to me!”

Claudia ignored her and sat down on the sofa. Obviously, she would not leave until Blair came.

Seeing that, Amber thought of the 'CCM project' that Uncle Raba had mentioned before. She rolled her eyes and subconsciously shouted towards the room upstairs, “Mom! Someone is looking for you!”
