CH 51: Who Was The Real Lawyer?

Jennifer HudsonAfter dinner at The Tavern, Ryan texted me every day. In fact, he texted me several times a day.I didn’t mind the way he texted or the way he paid attention to me. I was happy to have someone who was kind and attentive to me after so many years of living without genuine love from my family. Fortunately, I have a best friend who truly cares for me.Ryan is indeed charming and handsome. It wouldn’t be hard for him to find a girlfriend. I’m sure many women would want to be his girlfriend. Maybe Ryan is the one keeping his distance from those women.There is a significant age gap between us. But that isn’t a big deal. Whenever we text or talk, I feel at ease. His demeanor and the way he speaks show his maturity. That’s why I feel safe when I’m with him. It’s just that my heart is still elsewhere.I’ve told Ryan that, but he doesn’t mind and keeps giving me his attention. Sometimes I feel I don’t deserve his kindness and attention. But he insists, even though I’ve explaine

CH 52: My Guess Was Right

Jennifer Hudson“Are you sure?” Ryan asked. The surprise was obvious in his eyes. I felt uneasy.I nodded several times. “My mother’s lawyer’s name is Benjamin. Aunt Elena can confirm that.”“Please describe Benjamin.”“I only remember a little about him because I was still a child. He was about forty years old. He was tall and thin. Thick glasses adorned his face. He had thick eyebrows, blue eyes, and slightly dark and thin lips. His face looked intimidating, but he was kind. In fact, even his voice was soft. That’s all I remember.”“Has he been working with your mother for a long time?”“Yes. Even before Mom married Dad.”“Does he live in Brimston?”“Yes. But I don’t know where he lives now.”“Do you know about your mother’s illness? And do you know about your mother’s lawyer being replaced when she asked for a will to be drawn up?” Ryan asked.Ryan’s questions made the unease in my heart grow even stronger. Could something have happened in the past involving Benjamin? “Dad said Mom

CH 53: Look For Benjamin

Jennifer Hudson“All this time, I’ve been trying to convince myself that maybe my father still had a little love for me. But hearing the whole truth and seeing the copy of the will you showed me has shattered the belief I’d built up all this time. My life has been a struggle ever since my mother died. I never had nice clothes or any nice things. I wore the things Julia threw away.”“Did your father know about that?” Ryan asked, touching the back of my hand. The warmth of his palm spread throughout my body.“Yes. But he remained silent. He never stood up for me and never stopped them from doing those terrible things to me. I’d always sit by the window, gazing at the sky, hoping that tough life would pass. Until finally, the proposal from the Hills family arrived. I had liked Ethan Hills for a long time, but I never had the courage to confess my love or approach him. When the proposal came, I felt happy, the first happiness I’d felt since my mother died. But that marriage was only to so

CH 54: A Glimmer of Light

Jennifer HudsonAunt Elena let out a long sigh as she fiddled with the coffee cup in front of her. “At first, I thought your mother’s death was normal. But after seeing the look in her eyes, I knew something was wrong. At that moment, Fred let me into the room to see her. I knelt beside her and stroked her head. She had trouble speaking because she was having difficulty breathing. But the look in her eyes seemed to tell me that something was wrong. I kept holding her hand while reassuring her that everything would be okay. However, she was crying and kept shedding tears. That’s when Fred kicked me out of the room.”“Then, what happened next? Did Dad come into the room, too?”“Yes, he came into the room to act as a chaperone. I looked at him and asked for some time alone with your mother. But he refused outright. For your mother’s sake, I gave in. After leaving the room, I begged him to take your mother to the hospital. Instead of agreeing, he got angry and cursed at me in front of the

CH 55: Where Was Benjamin?

KenThat night, David subtly brushed me off when I asked about Elizabeth’s inheritance, which he claimed had dwindled significantly. Yet it was impossible for such a large sum to run out so quickly. Especially since Elizabeth had left behind a service company and several rental properties. Naturally, Fred received passive income every month. With that passive income, Fred and his family could live comfortably without having to work hard.It was crystal clear that they were indeed hiding something. Fred was still keeping that money for himself.Since it was past midnight, early morning to be exact, and my body was already too exhausted, I hurried back to the hotel. Upon arriving at my hotel room, I changed my clothes and then went to sleep.My eyes could no longer stay open. It didn’t take long before I drifted off to sleep and woke up the next morning when sunlight streamed through the window, which hadn’t been covered by curtains, and illuminated my face.My hand reached for the night

CH 56: More Intriguing

KenI furrowed my eyebrows and fixed my gaze on the middle-aged woman. “What news? What happened to Sir Benjamin? I’m sorry, but I’ve heard nothing about it. Besides, I don’t live in Brimston. I was born and raised in Rainwood.”Then, the middle-aged woman opened the door wider and invited me inside. She invited me to sit on the sofa in the living room. “Coffee or tea?”“No, thank you. I already had coffee at the hotel earlier.”The interior of Benjamin’s house looked nice and felt cozy. The house was well-maintained. The air inside the house felt cool, too. Actually, I liked this kind of farm atmosphere, far from the city’s noise.“Sir Benjamin has been friends with Mrs. Elizabeth since high school. Then, they attended the same university. Even though they majored in different fields, they remained good friends. I’m used to calling Mrs. Elizabeth ‘Eli.’ Let’s just call her Eli. One day, Eli heard that Sir Benjamin had become a lawyer working at a law firm. She invited Sir Benjamin to

CH 57: Vanished

KenMartha let out a long sigh for the umpteenth time. Her hand was still holding the teacup, but she wasn’t drinking her tea. “Sir Benjamin forced his way in to see Eli. He didn’t believe that Eli had agreed to his dismissal because, in all the time they’d worked together, Eli wasn’t the woman who would easily fire an employee or end a business partnership. But Fred barred Sir Benjamin from entering the house. In fact, he threatened to call the police if Sir Benjamin forced his way in. Unwilling to accept this, Sir Benjamin retaliated by threatening to investigate the irregularities surrounding Eli. He also said that he knew of Fred’s malicious intentions and would find evidence to send him to prison. After that, Sir Benjamin left, taking a big question mark with him.”“Then?”“A few days later, Sir Benjamin disappeared one night during a heavy downpour. We all searched for him, but to no avail.”“What really happened that night?” I asked curiously.“That night, a male worker came to

CH 58: The Files

Ken“What do you mean?” I asked, surprised. At that moment, Martha’s expression looked different, more radiant and more energetic.“I know the detective who handled Sir Benjamin’s disappearance back then. His name is Robin. I’ll try to contact him right now. Who knows, maybe he has a way out for you.”“Really? Okay, please. I’ll wait here,” I replied.“Wait a minute.” Martha stood up and walked away from me.This case was getting more complicated, and I hadn’t expected it to involve several people. Was Fred the only culprit? Or were Sarah and David Parker involved as well? If all three were involved, that meant this wasn’t an ordinary case. Sir Ryan would have to coordinate with his legal team. But why would the three of them go to such lengths? Were they covering up something related to Elizabeth’s case as well? If my hunch was correct, that meant this case was major and complex.A moment later, Martha returned with a cheerful expression on her face. Her eyes were sparkling. “Robin w

CH 59: If Only

Jennifer HudsonFinally, Ken returned to Rainwood with some incredible information. But unfortunately, Benjamin had disappeared. Ryan and Ken were convinced that the key to this case lay with Benjamin. However, more than a dozen years had passed, and the police still hadn’t found him; it was as if he’d vanished.After hearing the news about Benjamin, my thoughts immediately turned to Dad and Sarah. Living in the same house with them for so many years made me know their personalities inside and out, down to the smallest detail. We all concluded that Dad, Sarah, and David were involved in the case involving Mom and Benjamin.But we had one big question: Why would they go that far? What were they trying to cover up? As for Mom’s illness, it started out as a natural ailment. But Dad and Sarah took advantage of the situation to worsen Mom’s condition in order to get their hands on the inheritance. They achieved their goal. The will wasn’t written according to Mom’s wishes, but according to

CH 60: 9 Strange Documents

Jennifer HudsonSuddenly, Ryan took my hand, and miraculously, I felt calm. The warmth in his eyes seemed to say that I could count on him.“Calm down. Don’t panic. Maybe you want to hide this pregnancy from your ex-husband. But after all, you can’t hide it forever. Your child needs to know who their biological father is, and vice versa. Don’t separate them. I know you’re trying to be both a father and a mother at the same time. But that’s too much to handle and will only drain your energy. Let fate take its course. If your child and your husband meet and have a good relationship, let that relationship unfold naturally,” Ryan replied.He let out a quick sigh, then continued. “So, you don’t need to be afraid to attend Julia’s party. I have an idea.”“What idea?”“What if we all went to Brimston for a vacation? You can bring Aunt Elena, Elise, and the other servants. I’ll bring Ken, too. Ken and I don’t have anyone else, so we’ll just go the two of us. I have a villa there; it’s spacious
