Hunting for His EX-Wife

She would never come back again.

That woman he thought was Rose, even if she really was Rose… she was doing everything she could to deny her identity and not come back to him, right?”

The man thought of this and felt a dull pain in his chest, finding it difficult to even breathe.

Leah widened her eyes in shock and felt her heart rate increase involuntarily.

So, did the scumbag just admit that he liked Mommy?

The person he liked was Mommy?

…

That night, after Leah returned to her room, she couldn’t wait to message Sean.

“Sean, I met that bad woman at the scumbag’s villa today. The scumbag was pretty harsh with that woman. It doesn’t seem like he likes her.”

Soon enough, Sean replied, “Don’t let him fool you!”

Leah pursed her lips and continued messaging him, “At night, I saw the scumbag staring at a picture of Mommy lost in thought. He also said that the person he likes is Mommy.”

“Leah, all these jerks are like this. They only realize how precious something is once they lose it.”

Upon seeing this message from Sean, Leah couldn’t help but hesitate deep down inside.

If it were any other day, she would have chosen to believe Sean without question.

But today she witnessed such a scene; now hearing what Sean had said made Leah wonder if things were really as they seemed…

Although she had only been around the scumbag dad for one day today; somehow Leah didn’t feel like he was as bad as everyone made him out to be…

Meanwhile over at Shadewoods Villa, as soon as Sean received Leah’s message, he immediately told his mother about it.

“Mommy! Leah messaged me saying that earlier today she messed with Madeleine, that bad woman.”

“How’s my sweetie doing? Did anything happen between them?” Rose nervously looked at her son, fearing Leah being hurt by Elliot.

Sean comfortingly patted his mother’s arm while smiling reassuringly, “Don’t worry, Mommy. Right now Leah is safe and sound.”

The woman sitting beside the little one nodded gently when she heard those words, finally feeling relieved.

Even though she knew Leah wasn’t in any immediate danger, she couldn’t help but worry.

Sean also understood his mom’s concerns and offered comforting words in a gentle tone.

“Mom, don’t worry. Leah is so smart, she’ll be fine,” Sean said in a soft voice, interrupting his mother’s thoughts.

Rose nodded slightly, sighing inwardly. What else could she do at this point?

The next second, Sean’s voice echoed through the hall in a gentle tone, “Mom, the most important thing right now is to get hold of evidence to prove Uncle’s innocence.”

Rose agreed and nodded solemnly. “I’m just worried that the evidence has been destroyed.” Her hand tightened at her side as she spoke and her expression grew even more serious.

“I need to go back to the Russell mansion and hopefully find some evidence,” Rose continued. If this was all Madeleine and Rachel’s scheme, then surely they would have hidden any crucial evidence there.

Sean immediately suggested, “Mom, let’s call Khalil for help.”

“Okay,” Rose replied gravely before dialing Khalil’s number on her phone.

Soon enough, it was answered by Khalil with his usual soft-spoken tone saying, “Mommy.”

“Baby boy,” Rose said lovingly into the phone. “I want to go to the Russell mansion and find some evidence; do you know if you can get me a maid who looks similar to me?”

“Yes,” Khalil replied shortly before adding seriously, “Mommy, let Sean open up his phone.”

Sean quickly pressed a button on his phone as an image of a holographic projection appeared in front of them showing one of the Russell Family maids’ face.

“Mommy, the maid’s appearance has been projected in front of you.”

“Thank you so much, baby boy!” Rose smiled gratefully before hanging up and heading straight into her room where she took out her secret weapon – an all-purpose holographic projector that Khalil had made for her.

This projector worked by refracting light waves which allowed it to alter anyone’s appearance without having them physically change anything about themselves, thus allowing Rose not only look different, but also avoid detection as long as no one touched her body!

If someone touched her body, the holographic projection in their eyes would fail and Rose’s true appearance would come into their view.

At ten o’clock that night, Rose returned to the Russell mansion.

The current Russell mansion was no longer the home she had known as a child.

Looking at the completely unfamiliar building, she couldn’t help but feel a bit bitter inside.

Just then, a voice of doubt came from behind her, making Rose’s heart skip a beat.

“Poppy, aren’t you off today? Why did you suddenly come over?”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Rose turned around and gave an embarrassed smile. “I forgot I had today off and only remembered when I got here.”

Another maid heard this and nodded before leaving. Just then, another maid approached and saw Rose standing at the staircase. She walked up to her and handed her a tray directly.

“Poppy, I haven’t finished with kitchen duties yet. Can you take this glass of milk to Lady Rachel for me?”

“Sure.” Rose calmly replied as she took the tray from the maid.

She was wondering about how to get close to those two Fox sisters, but now someone helped her out.

She looked at the departing figure of that maid, curled her lips and calmed down before walking upstairs.

Before coming here, Khail had already accessed the Russell mansion’s surveillance, so she naturally knew where Rachel’s room was located.

Just as she arrived at the door of Rachel’s room, Rachel’s anxious voice came from the slightly ajar door. “Sis, what do we do now?”

“Why are you in such a hurry,” Madeleine calmly retorted while reaching out for different colored nail polishes placed in front of Rachel who sat on bed painting nails without showing any signs of mental distress whatsoever.

Rachel frowned slightly, upon hearing Madeleine’s response. Her tone became even more urgent than before. “Sis, Elliot cut off that part of surveillance footage. What if he…”
