Chapter 386: 386: Are You Nervous?

The old butler shook his head, “I don’t know if your mother remarried or where she went. I only heard from a fellow villager that your mother didn’t fare well after leaving the Marshall family. Her maternal relatives were unwilling to welcome her, and she couldn’t find a job.”

“Old butler, can you get in touch with your fellow villager? I’d like to know more about the situation.”

“My fellow villager’s name is Philip Lee, and I haven’t seen him for many years. I heard he returned to his home country and has been with his son, called… Lee… Edward Lee. Sir, this is all I know. It’s a relief to have said it all.”

“I greatly appreciate it.”

“Hopefully, I can help you. Although it’s overdue, I hope justice can be served for your mother. Back then, we all kept silent, all the servants of the Marshall family were replaced, and we were all given hush money.

Next, it was the young master’s wedding to Bella Thompson, and your mother vanished without a trace, as if all of this had nothing to do with her. She left without taking anything. Thankfully, the old lady took pity on you and raised you herself.”

Daniel’s face hardened alarmingly, his thin lips pressed together, and a dangerous aura began to radiate from him, as if a fiery anger was about to burst forth from his eyes.

Daniel had known since he was a child that Ella Charles’ name was taboo in the Marshall family, and no one was allowed to mention it.

When he cried for his mother, only his grandmother would comfort him. Eventually, he became accustomed to it — there was no longer a mother for him to see.

The only memory he had of her was the chive dumplings she used to make.

Because he refused to eat the food, his grandma had no choice but to make the chive dumplings following his mother’s recipe.

Latter, when his grandmother’s health deteriorated, he never got to taste the chive dumplings — the only thing that reminded him of his mother — again.

When Bella Thompson married into the Marshall family, she basked in unlimited glory. His father practically doted on her as though she was a treasure; his father never looked at him in the same manner.

His father detested him so much. Even his touch was repelled as if it was revolting.

One incident etched in Daniel’s memory was when he ran to his father, who had just come back home. Not only did his father refuse to hold him, but he was also cruelly pushed away. He cried, but his father still didn’t spare a glance at him — only his grandmother picked him up.

His father’s treatment towards Matthew Marshall was entirely different, doting on him as though he was a precious gem that might dissolve if held in the mouth too long.

If it weren’t for the protection he received from his grandfather, Daniel didn’t dare to imagine what his life would have become.

Now, Daniel was even more certain that Bella Thompson had something to do with his mother’s scandal back then. He was sure that his mother must have been framed by Bella.

Daniel was determined to investigate and seek justice for his mother.

Daniel also wanted to find his mother. No matter what, he wanted to take care of her.

After leaving, Daniel called Adam Howard, asking him to locate Philip Lee as soon as possible.

Daniel also provided Adam with the information he currently had about Philip Lee.

In addition, Daniel issued a directive, attached with a picture, offering a reward to anyone who could locate Joseph Charles. There would also be a reward for any clues leading to his whereabouts.

James Marshall came to see Matthew Marshall again, with a basket of fruits.

James also actively mentioned that Daniel had gone to the U.S., flying to another city, and meeting a Lee-named butler.

At this moment, Bella Thompson’s heart skipped a beat, feeling an inexplicable anxiety.

When James left, Bella expressly thanked him for his kind intentions and personally saw him off.

At the rooftop of RenewalCare Hospital, after making sure no one was around, Bella cautiously lowered her voice and asked, “Are you tailing Daniel?”

James gave an ominous smile, “Sister-in-law, are you feeling anxious?
