Chapter 92: Jane Hasis Suspects Me
Bella Hill has Jane Hasis to plan for her, and Yilia Young has Frank Hill to organize everything and pave the way.
But what about me?
Both daughters of THE Hill family, and I’m as invisible as a gutter rat.
Every word I questioned Frank Hill was a grievance in my mind, and at this point I wasn’t any Bella Hill, I was Alva Hill, and I wanted a statement for myself.
Frank Hill froze, he probably didn’t expect me to say this, he’s so full of debt to Yilia Young these days that he’s afraid he’s forgotten he has a daughter named Alva Hill.
The cigarette burned in his hand and the hall was silent as a pin drop.
It took a good half a minute for Frank Hill to find his voice: “Your sister, Alva, she’s dead, and Dad does feel guilty about her, but Dad doesn’t have the chance to make up for it anymore because of Alva’s past, and Dad doesn’t want to make himself regret it again, and owe it to Yilia .”
I laughed coldly, “Dad, do you know why you said that Yilia Young is the elder sister, mom and I believed it, because the elder sister isn’t dead, she will come back one day, if you really feel guilty, think about how you are going to make it up to her now, but now that you’re giving everything to Yilia Young, and you’ve used the elder sister’s name to hold such a grand recognition banquet, even if sister comes back, I’m afraid dad won’t be able to get anything to make it up to her.”
“What?” Frank Hill stared at me in horror, “Alva’s not dead?”
“She’s not dead.” I looked steadily at Frank Hill, “If you don’t believe me, go ask the medical examiner who did my sister’s autopsy back in the day, maybe you’ll get something.”
I’m not afraid of Frank Hill knowing I’m alive now, or even hoping he’ll recognize me, and that Bella Hill I’ve done enough of.
Dropping that, I didn’t bother to worry about what Frank Hill’s expression was, and went straight up the stairs.
Just around the corner, I ran into Jane Hasis.
She looked at me with a creepy look.
Yes, it’s the spooky, get-your-heart-in-the-sand kind.
I giggled inwardly; she should have heard my conversation with Frank Hill earlier.
Jane Hasis stepped in front of me and looked me over carefully for fear of missing something, and I knew that she was already suspicious of me.
I asked in mock bewilderment, “Mom, what are you looking at me like that for.”
“It’s nothing.” Jane Hasis smiled a little stiffly, “Mom just hasn’t had a good look at you in a while and wanted to take a closer look.”All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
I laughed and stared into her eyes, “Mom, you didn’t just recognize me as my sister.”
Jane Hasis’ pupils plummeted and she looked at me in horror.
I smiled at her, “Just now I told dad that my sister is still alive, I said it on purpose, doesn’t he feel guilty about Yilia Young? If Sister really comes back, Dad will also compensate Sister because of his guilt, and for Sister’s sake, he won’t divorce you, you and Dad have been a couple for more than twenty years, so you can’t really divorce, and then it will be cheaper for someone else.”
“That … is what you intend to do.” Jane Hasis still blushed a little, “But wouldn’t it be worse if your dad went to Forensic Lee and things fell apart, and then mom would be okay with that, but what about you?”
I still smiled, “Mom you’re not taking everything on yourself, what’s it got to do with me.”
Jane Hasis is willing to sacrifice everything for Bella Hill, so what’s the point of taking the fall.
Besides, Jane Hasis was never going to get away with what happened with the autopsy report.
Jane Hasis looked at me with a complicated expression and smiled a little stiffly, “Yes, mom won’t let anything happen to you, you’re everything to mom.”
In order to dispel the suspicion in Jane Hasis’s mind, I said, “the Richter family’s old mansion side let me go to check my health before, the old lady means to let me give Walker Richter a boy, whoever gives birth to a child between me and Tina Deross, this the Richter Group The Richter Group will be inherited by whomever Tina Deross and I have a child.”
At that, Jane Hasis’ eyes glowed, “Really?”
I nodded my head, Jane Hasis was overjoyed, “Bella ah, when you give birth to a child, and your son-in-law inherits the company, then I’ll follow and get the glory as well, then see if your father still dares to divorce me, Bella, you are really mom’s good daughter, mom relies on you for the rest of her life.”
It was late and Jane Hasis told me to hurry back to my room to rest and get well and have a good routine to easily conceive a baby.
Jane Hasis herself escorted me to my room, made my bed, watched me lie down, and turned off the light and closed the door for me, “Go to sleep now.”
The moment the door closed, she stood in the light of the door, and I could see every expression on her face in the relative dimness of the room, as clearly as I could, and the fear hidden in the bottom of her eyes did not escape me.
Jane Hasis wasn’t stupid, and the doubts in her mind weren’t put to rest.
Once suspected by Jane Hasis, she’s sure to find ways to try.
She’s my mother anyhow, and I’m her daughter, more or less.
Jane Hasis genuinely wants to try and will be pervasive.
The next morning there was a bowl of bird’s nest porridge on the table, the food Bella Hill loves and I hate.
“Bella, eat more, nourish your body well and you won’t suffer if you carry a baby.” Jane Hasis smiled and pushed the bird’s nest porridge in front of me.
This slimy stuff is disgusting to look at and reminds me of a snake spitting out its letters.
I smiled inwardly, since Jane Hasis was so interested in determining which one of her daughters I really was, I wouldn’t disappoint her, sort of give her an early warning.
I pushed the bird’s nest porridge away, “Mom, I don’t eat this kind of stuff, it looks disgusting.”
Jane Hasis got a bowl for Bella Hill back in the day and I didn’t, and Bella Hill was proudly flaunting it in front of me and I said exactly the same thing then.
Jane Hasis really did remember this, and as soon as my words left her mouth, her face immediately turned white as a sheet, and there was a flash of desperately hidden fear in the depths of her eyes.
She almost shook her hand to serve the bird’s nest congee away, “If you don’t eat it, forget it, you eat these, these are all made by mom early in the morning.”
“Hard on Mom.”
I smiled and took a sip of my milk, not caring about Jane Hasis’ face.
Walker Richter arrived just after breakfast.
Jane Hasis walks me to the door and I get in the car and buckle my seatbelt, “My mom suspects me.”
In the presence of Walker Richter, these things can already be known.
Walker Richter wasn’t surprised and looked as usual: “That’s a good thing.”
“Oh?” I looked at him with interest, “How so?”
“If you don’t want her to find out, she must not find out.”
I laughed, knowing me as Walker Richter does.
“Yeah, I did that on purpose.” I leaned back against the car seat, “Bella Hill I’ve done enough.”
That was a double entendre on my part, and being as smart as Walker Richter, he wouldn’t have failed to understand what I meant.
I don’t want to be Bella Hill anymore and I don’t want to be around him in that capacity, and we can’t be the same as we are now once I return to his position.
I also said this to see Walker Richter’s reaction, and to my surprise he just came in with a cloudy, “You’re happy.”
I can’t see what he means.
