Chapter 22

Author: Summer Blossom
In the hospital ward, Macie had a slight frown on her forehead. She did not think much of Edward's final remark. As she switched to another app on her phone, Macie noticed that Edward had transferred some money to her account.

The transferred sum was 30,000 dollars, and he left a remark stating that it was money for her surgery.

Macie transferred the money back to him at once. Even if she did not return it now, Edward would probably ask for the money back when they proceeded with the divorce later on.

Sitting in the first row, Edward noticed that Macie had sent the money back to him. He sent her a message asking about it and received a reply.

"I won't need surgery, so I don't need the money."

Edward responded. "You're staying at the hospital for a few days, right? Use the money for the hospital fees."

Macie typed another response.

"The hospital fees won't cost that much. I can afford it."

After sending the message, Macie turned off her phone and tossed it aside.

Meanwhile, Edw

    Edward's recovery over the past two days at the hospital had been remarkable. He was in good spirits, and he looked healthier than most patients, as he was already able to get out of bed and take a few steps."Mr. Fowler, you're young, so you bounced back fast," Nolan said as he helped him. Still, Edward couldn't be discharged yet. He needed more rest and couldn't return to work.This time, the car accident Edward was involved in couldn't be kept under wraps because it happened right outside HG Corporation. There had been plenty of witnesses. The news spread through the upper circles of the business industry within hours.Everyone also learned the identity of the woman he had saved—Macie, Edward's wife. Edward had once posted their marriage certificate on social media, and the woman's name and face matched perfectly. Before long, word went around that Edward was a man who loved his wife so much that he'd risk his life for her.Now that Macie's identity was out in the open, curios

    "Sharon sure donated a lot," Elias casually remarked."Yeah, she has such a kind heart! At first, she was only planning to donate 20 million dollars. But when she saw how much those sick children were suffering, she felt so bad that she burst into tears and donated another 30 million," Mira elaborated.Elias pursed his lips, as it all sounded perfectly reasonable. After exchanging a few more words with her, he hung up the phone and ordered Mitch, "Keep an eye on the foundation's account this week. I want to know if any of Sharon's donations are being funneled out or moved around."After hearing that, Mitch froze for a moment before nodding. He wondered if Elias was suspecting that Sharon was using the foundation as a front for something illegal."There's something else I didn't mention earlier, Mr. Hale," Mitch added. "The cops caught the hit-and-run driver at 2:00 am. He was on a motorcycle, about to cross into another province. "He's a repeat offender. He's used the same disgui

    In the orphanage office, a potbellied middle-aged man lounged in his chair. He had one leg crossed over the other, looking perfectly at ease. When he read the word "Deal" pop up on his phone, a smug smile tugged at his lips.He'd known Sharon would agree. Never mind 30 million dollars—if he had asked for another 50 million, she would've given it.However, when one was fishing, they would not reel in the big one all at once. Push too hard, and their catch might break free, leaving them with nothing. Thus, the better strategy was to take it slow, step by step.After that man left that morning, he'd been thinking about the reason behind it all. Why was Sharon so well-informed, and what kind of grudge did she have against Macie that she'd go so far as to want her dead? The more he thought about it, the clearer the picture became. The other day, Sharon had altered her records, changing her age to appear two years younger and tampering with the ages of other children.He had actually s

    Elias pressed his lips into a thin line. At this point, he no longer believed a single word Sharon said.Macie clearly hadn't loved Edward. The divorce agreement had made that obvious. She'd walked away with nothing, choosing to have a clean break.Macie had even gone through two trials, doing everything she could to end their marriage. The moment she left the Fowler family, she'd joined Brightech Studios, the company owned by the senior she liked.Elias glanced at the portrait of Brightech Studios' CEO. He had to admit that the man was good-looking. Based on what he'd heard, everyone at Brightech Studios knew about the rumors between Julian and Macie. Just a couple of days ago, Julian had even sent a company-wide email to clear her name. So, Elias figured that Julian and Macie would probably end up together. Julian was the man Macie truly loved, after all.He was still turning the thought over in his mind when his office door opened. When he looked up, he saw his father, Edmund.

    After hearing Mitch's suggestion, Elias didn't respond. After all, that was indeed all they could do now."Is there at least a group photo? What about an admission photo?" he asked.Mitch responded, "There's none. Ms. Emerson's record didn't have a photo either. Back then, the orphanage was so small and bare-bones, they didn't even have proper equipment."Elias pressed his lips together. This was going to make the investigation a lot more difficult."In that case, I'll head back for now, Mr. Hale. Don't worry. I'll keep following up here. The moment I hear anything, I'll let you know," Mitch reassured him."Alright," Elias said. He was about to end the call when he thought of something. "Go ask Raymond if a child had used his desk phone to contact Sharon at around 9:00 pm last night. If so, I want to know the child's name."After hearing that, Mitch relayed the question. "Yeah, a child wanted to speak with Ms. Emerson last night, saying that she missed her too much. Her name's El

    From the very beginning, when Sharon had altered the records, she'd instructed Raymond to hide Macie's record and only show the other children from the same batch. This was the reason Mitch had never seen Macie's record, and Raymond could claim ignorance."That's impossible! I've looked into her background. Macie was definitely from this orphanage," Mitch said.After hearing that, Raymond answered, "If you're certain, then her record should exist, but it might have gotten mixed in with the other folders. After all, it's been over two decades, and the directors have changed several times since. Each director reorganizes the records, and any children who were adopted in the meantime would have had their files transferred as well."Mitch frowned when he heard that. He had no idea that Macie had been adopted. That didn't match the information he had. Everything indicated that Macie had always been an orphan."I can look at the collective household register here, right?" Mitch asked. He
