"Who is this?"
Seeing that it was an unfamiliar girl, Nicole asked.
Martha also looked at Samuel in puzzlement.
Samuel brought the girl in and motioned for her to speak.
The girl was a little shy, but seeing Nicole and Martha, she said in a low voice, "I am Amanda's daughter. My mother is gone."
"Who is Amanda?"
Nicole subconsciously looked at Martha.
Martha quickly explained, "She is our nanny. She said that her daughter is sick, asked for some advance of salary, and left. But what do you mean by saying your mother is gone?"
The girl bit her lower lip and pondered for a while before saying, "My name is Alina Evans. Amanda is my stepmother. She has treated me badly since my childhood. Even when I got sick, she only gave me ginger syrup and rarely sent me to the hospital. Yesterday, a man came looking for her. She went out for a while and said nothing to me after coming back. But this morning she went out and never came back. It wasn't until Mr. Green came to look for me that I realized that she had taken away our passbook and household register."
"What?"
Martha was shocked.
"When I decided to employ Amanda as my nanny, the agency said that she was very considerate and responsible."
Alina whispered, "My father left behind a sum of money after his car accident. She pretended to be good to me in front of others for fear that they would accuse her of maltreating me. But I led a miserable life when she was alone with me at home. My father left the money to me, but it's gone now. She may have run away with the man who came to find her that day. I know him. He used to work as a bar watch. "
Hearing this, Nicole and Martha were convinced that it wasn't an accidental fall this time.
"Who is so hostile to our family?"
Martha had been in the sanatorium for so many years without knowing how malevolent a person could be. Now hearing this, she felt slightly sad and disappointed.
Nicole looked at Alina and asked, "Do you know that man?"
"Sort of. After my father died, he had come to my home a few times, but I didn't like him very much. My mother told me that we might live together in the future, but I hate it. I think she should have run away with this man this time.
"What's this man's name?"
"I don't know, but everyone calls him Zeddy."
Nicole frowned at Alina's reply.
Only then did Samuel speak.
