Chapter 225
In fact, they were right. Bonnie was happy because this was her chance to be alone and to look for Natan around the house. No one detected anything wrong in this, and even Aliyah hissed when she found Bonnie would rather do chores than recite the rules.
“I think I've given you too much credit. Where's the arrogant Bonnie? Oh, she's begging me now." Aliyah looked disapprovingly. Bonnie looked down to the floor, hiding her eyes that were full of mischief. She acted like a good wife in front of Aliyah.
"Alright, you can start with the annexes. This isn't over until you clean the entire house." Aliyah commanded coldly. The Grant Residence dated back to ancient times, covering a large space with seven or eight annexes. It would take her at least one week to finish the cleaning. However, Bonnie didn't find it annoying at all.
She then started from the nearest annex with servants. “You need to clean up the dust here,” said a servant.
Bonnie nodded and said, “Okay.” She slaved away all day to get her job done with a mop and a feather duster in her hand. But it was a rewarding trip – she found an album where photos of Joanna and Natan recorded their growth since they had been born, from the adorable babies in infancy to little kids on all fours in suits and to the smiling children sitting in a toy car.
Bonnie flipped it over page after page with emotional turbulence in her heart. When she saw Natan in the photos, it reminded her how much she missed her child. Natan looked exactly the same as Andrew and Lukas when he was a child. She wondered what Natan looked like now. However, the last photos were taken when Natan was three years and two months old.
What happened at that time? Why did it stop recording?
When she was going to seek other clues, Bonnie heard Sebastian's voice behind her.
“Why are you sneaking around here?” Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Bonnie turned around and hid the album in her clothes. “Nothing. I was just taking a rest after doing all day's work.”
Sebastian's eyes were unreadable. “Quit if you don't want to.”
Aliyah couldn't force Bonnie to work if it went against Sebastian's wishes.
However, Bonnie panicked. She said, “No, I'm okay with that. I just take a break. Please don't tell your mother.” This was her best chance to wander around the Grant Residence.
“Annie, what's wrong with you? I didn't know you're a big fan of doing chores.”
“No, I don't.” Bonnie shook her head and said, “But I'm trying to help.”
She looked assertively at Sebastian after she found a good excuse. “I'm your wife now. I bet you've heard of that 'mother-and-daughter' issue right? I'm trying to help you get out of that."
Sebastian was moved when he heard that, but did she really mean it when she said it?
