The Contract Marriage

Chapter 336 Will You Still Treat Her The Same Way?

"Young Master, why are you looking for me?" Mrs. Garcia asked Christian as soon as she walked in.

Christian heard Mrs. Garcia calling him and shook his head with a smile. "Mrs. Garcia, didn't I tell you? You can just call me Christian. It's not like we're in the old society now. What kind of young master is there?"

Christian locked the door behind him as he spoke. He then brought Mrs. Garcia to the sofa and sat down.

Mrs. Garcia smiled. "This was what Madam instructed me to do when she was around. I'm used to it now."

"Just call me by my name in the future."

"Alright! Is there anything that Christian wants from me for?"

Christian's expression changed slightly. He looked at Mrs. Garcia and asked in a deep voice, "It is like this. Mrs. Garcia, do you remember the day when my father was sick and hospitalized? It was also the night Sarah gave birth."

Mrs. Garcia immediately nodded. "I remember. There were too many things that happened that night, so my impression was very deep."

"When I came back from the army, I had a chat with Aunt Daphne. Before my dad got sick, she cooked a bowl of bird's nest porridge for him to drink. Did Mrs. Garcia see it at that time?"

Mrs. Garcia heard what Christian said and thought for a moment. Then she nodded her head, "Yes, I remember that! At that time, I wanted to help Madam keep an eye on the kitchen, but she said that she could do it herself. After that, she let me go back to sleep."

"Then, before you went back to your room, who else in the living room didn't sleep?" Christian asked cautiously.

Mrs. Garcia seriously thought about it and slowly said, "Young Madam was in the hospital. The old man went to sleep not long after dinner. Vivian also went back to her bedroom early as she was pregnant. Second Young Master and Ruby also went back to their room. In the living room, besides the Madam, it is me. . ."

"Where are the other servants at home? Isn't there Hannah and Lea? Those two girls also slept?" Christian continued to ask.

"Lea went back to her room, but Hannah has been accompanying Vivian. . . . If there is someone who hasn't slept yet, then there is only Hannah!"

"Why is she accompanying Vivian?"

"This still needs to be explained from Ruby's matter. Ruby is Vivian's cousin. She brought Ruby to the villa because she wanted Ruby to help her during her pregnancy. After that, for some reason, Ruby got closer and closer to Second Young Master. In the end, Ruby took care of Second Master very carefully, so Madam let Ruby follow him. It was not easy for Vivian to bring someone with her and Ruby became Second Master’s person, so Vivian found the Madam to assign Hannah to her. Hannah specifically served Vivian’s meals and daily life. So, Hannah probably didn't sleep that night!" Mrs. Garcia replied with certainty.

"Is Hannah in the villa now?"

Mrs. Garcia shook her head. "She resigned a few days ago and said that she would return to her hometown."

Christian frowned. "She quit?"

"Yes, sir. She left a long time ago."

Christian nodded. He sat on the sofa and was silent for a moment before he looked at Mrs. Garcia and asked: "Right, when she first entered the villa, she should have left a copy of her ID card. Isn't that right?"

In order to ensure safety, when the family hired these maids, they all left copies of their ID cards to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

Mrs. Garcia nodded her head. "Yes. However, these things have always been kept by Madam. I wonder if we can still find them now."

"Then do you know why Hannah resigned?"

"She only said that there was some problem in her family. When we asked about it, she was only silent and did not say anything. Anyway, every family has a scripture that they can't read. Seeing how she is unable to speak properly, we didn’t ask her any further."

"Mrs. Garcia, how do you usually feel about this Hannah?"

Mrs. Garcia thought for a moment and said slowly, "To be honest, this lass is smarter than Lea. Her brain also works quickly. Sometimes, you just give her a little bit of information and she will understand. But it just feels like she is trying to act according to the situation. There was a little bit that she did not seem to be that obvious. In any case, it's still alright. . ."

Hannah had already left this place. Mrs. Garcia also did not want to say too much.

"Okay. I know. Mrs. Garcia, I hope you can keep the things I talked to you about today a secret for the time being."

Mrs. Garcia nodded again. As a maid, she knew that no matter how curious you were about something, you could not get to the bottom of it. "Don't worry. I won't tell anyone."

"Okay, then you go and do your work."

"Alright." Mrs. Garcia nodded, stood up, and walked out of the study.

Christian saw Mrs. Garcia walk out of the room and also stood up. Thinking about Hannah's resignation, his mind was filled with doubts.

But he also knew that no matter how he speculated, he had to use evidence to speak. Thinking like this, Christian immediately walked to the desk and picked up the phone on the desk to call his father.

"Dad, I want to ask you something."

"Yes, what is it?"

"Do you know where the photocopies of the identification cards Aunt Daphne kept for the maids are?"

"They should be in the safe in the study."

"Oh, when can you come back?" If it was in the safe, he could only wait for his father to come back.

"Is there anything urgent?"

"Yes, a little. . ."

"Okay, I'll be back soon."

"Goodbye, Dad."

"Um. . . "

Because Ethan would be back in a while, Christian left the study first. Remembering that Sarah was still in the bedroom feeding the children, he pushed open the door and walked in. At first glance, he saw Sarah carrying Simona and sitting on the sofa, while feeding Simona milk.

Christian turned around and closed the door, then slowly walked to Sarah’s side and sat down. He looked down at the little girl in Sarah’s arms. She blinked her dark eyes and ate happily. She would even raise her little face and look at Sarah while smiling happily, revealing her pink gums.

"Look how cute she is. How can she have a heartless mother like Vivian?" Knowing that it was Christian who walked in, Sarah did not raise her head. Looking at the cute and soft child in her arms, she could not help but sigh.

Christian also sighed softly. “I also wonder how she could bear to exchange such a cute child. But even if the child returns to her original position, she will still be the granddaughter of Cooper Family."

Sarah nodded. "Yes! Fortunately, it is not too late and both children are still so young now. But Christian, why do you think Vivian wants to change the children? Is it because she is so jealous of the two of us that she thought of such a method to torture us?"

Sarah really did not understand. No matter what type of hatred one had, they would never use a child to take revenge.

"This might be a part of the reason, but definitely not all of it. I think the main reason why Vivian exchanged the child over should be because she wants our family's property. In her opinion, if it was a daughter, the Cooper Group definitely wouldn't have her share in the future. But she really thought wrong. Whether Simona was a boy or a girl, Dad would treat everyone equally, and what she was worried about would not happen! What she did was unnecessary!"

If one were to speculate based on Vivian's personality, she must have taken a liking to the Cooper Family's property long ago, therefore she chased after him first. When he got into trouble and broke his legs, Vivian must have thought that he was of no use now thus she got together with Julian.

Initially, she thought that as long as she gave birth to a boy, she would be able to rule in the Cooper Family. But she was really wrong!
