Unfortunately, Sophia didn’t seem to notice that Michael was worried. Amidst her endless expectations, the receptionist smiled as she walked out and said, “Mrs. Fletcher, your documents have been verified. Please come with us to open the safe.”

Hearing this, Sophia eagerly went over to open the safe while Michael followed behind with heavy steps. With great excitement, Sophia opened the safe that had been sealed for twenty years with the key. As soon as the safe was opened, Sophia saw a small box that looked like it was made many years ago. She took out the box and realized it was pretty light. However, it seemed to have some weight as she held it in her hands, as if it was weighted with time.

“Let me.” Michael took over the box from her hands. Then, Sophia happily held onto Michael’s big palm before they held hands and left. After they walked out of the bank, Sophia couldn’t wait another minute and was eager to see what was inside Annabel’s box. She and Michael entered a cafe nearby and sat at a relatively quiet table. Before the coffee was served, Sophia happily opened Annabel’s box.

After she opened the box, she saw there weren’t many things kept in it. There was only an old passbook, a red jewelry box and a photo album.

Sophia opened the passbook and saw that Annabel’s name was written on it. The passbook was processed twenty years ago, and there was a full 500,000 in it! The value of 500,000 from twenty years ago was incomparable with the value of 500,000 today. It was a huge fortune! When Sophia saw the figure, she was dumbfounded and even thought she had read it wrong.

It’s impossible for Annabel to have such a large sum of money. If she had this amount of money at the beginning, why would she be a nanny for the Edwards family? Can this be the bargaining chip Coop’s family gave her to get her to leave him? It’s possible.

Meanwhile, Michael’s attention was on the tacky red jewelry box, which he eagerly opened to find a black obsidian Goddess amulet. He quickly turned to look at the amulet that belonged to Cooper that was on Sophia’s chest. Traditionally, men wore a token of God while women wore a token of Goddess. This black obsidian Goddess amulet was the other half of the amulet that Cooper mentioned.

It was a pair of amulets that Woody obtained to protect his two children but his daughter died in childhood. The two amulets were then passed onto Cooper, and Cooper gave one of them to his daughter, Sophia and the other to his lover, Annabel.

At that moment, the tokens and password they needed for Cooper’s fortune in Kuwait were complete and ready to be withdrawn.
