Billionaire’s Reborn Baby

On the New Year’s Day, everyone in the house was playing fireworks in the garden downstairs. The butler, Susan, and Harold all surrounded Emily happily and said blessings to her. Maury rubbed Emily’s head and handed her a red envelope. Emily smiled and thanked him. Then, Maury gave the envelopes to the others one by one. The atmosphere was lit up in the garden. Elsie stood on the balcony on the second floor and watched, tears flowing down her cheeks silently.

The New Year began, but Elsie had changed. She lived quietly in the house just for food and clothes. She did not dare to look at Emily, nor did she dare to meet Harold. She was even afraid to see Maury now.

Even at night, she would be worried that someone would show up and drive her out of the house.

Eliot finally called her after more than ten days, but Elsie refused in fear. She didn’t dare to call him back until she returned to her room and hid under the blanket.

Eliot had been running around for Beverly these days. Even if Beverly had done something wrong, she was his mother anyway. Eliot could not sit idly by and ignore it.

He hadn’t contacted Elsie because, on the one hand, he wanted Elsie to cut off the contact with him so that Maury would feel better; on the other hand, he had been too busy. He knew that Elsie might be calling to ask about her mother. He couldn’t answer her questions, nor could he do anything, so he hadn’t answered her phone.

Now he was just calling to ask how things were going at home.

However, he didn’t expect to hear Elsie crying. Perhaps it was because her mother had been arrested and she was too scared.

Eliot was about to comfort her when he heard Elsie saying incoherently, “Emily is not retarded. She lied to all of us. She set mom up. She took the five million and had admitted it herself. Dad doesn’t believe me. Harold works for her, and so does Susan. Everyone in the family believes her. No one is with me. I’m so scared … She pointed a knife at me last time and I’m scared that she would suddenly barge in and kill me one night…”

“Did you have a nightmare?” Eliot sighed and asked, “You should try to get along well with Emily and be nice with her.”
