    Chapter 148


    “After finding out about her origins, the Murphy family offered Yvonne a hundred grand, but Yvonne


    didn’t bite. She just hoped to spend some time with Ynda when she could However, Ynda wasn’t


    having any of it and didn’t want much to do with her.”


    “Yvonne tried to visit the Murphy family many times, but was shooed away by the help every time. Now,


    she’s in bad health, with no ie, and no family or kids to look after her. It’s kinda pitiful”


    “She ended up raising an ungrateful brat,” Arabe knew Ynda’s character. Ynda would just see


    her past as a humiliation, preferring to push Yvonne away to mber up the socialdder!


    “Another odd thing is, the higher–ups from Mercy Hospital back then are all missing, and there’s no


    trace of them even in the archives.”


    “Now, all we can do is look for clues from Yvonne and other rescuers. But boss, brace yourself. The


    results may note quickly.”


    “Mhm.‘ Arabe finished, felt her phone buzz. She nced at the screen, it was Romeo calling. “Gotta


    take this.”


    After her call with Romeo and a shower, Arabe hit the sack.


    In her dream, she seemed to be back at the Murphy family, watching a little girl holding Olga Murphy’s


    hand, teary–eyed, asking, “Mama, when will youe back next time?” “Arabe, can you just stop?

    Your dad and I are up to our eyeballs in work every day. Do you think we’re idle? Just because you


    have a fever, we shoulde see you?” Little Arabe felt wronged, crying softly, “I didn’t…”


    “Do you think your grandma would call us and force us toe back if you didn’t tell her? Do you know


    how much we have to put on hold every time wee back!” “Alright Olga, she’s just a kid,” Attlee


    Murphy tried to mediate.


    “A kid?” Olga snapped, “Which kid maniptes us with the elders at such a young age? Look at how


    your mom spoils her! I tell you, Arabe, the more you do this, the more I dislike you! You are always


    crying, so annoying!”


    Watching Olga storm off, Attlee hurriedly followed, “Honey, don’t be like this… The kid doesn’t know


    that her grandpa teft thepany to us after his death, and that so many people in thepany are


    trying to oust us, setting up roadblocks… She just misses us.”


    “This troublemaker, always causing us problems. If she’s so capable, why don’t she make us


    unnecessary to work, what can she do besides crying!”


    Little Arabe, wiping her tears, seemed to make up her mind. If she bes better, helps the family


    to make money, would mom and dad not have to work so hard? Would they like her then?


    With the help of her grandpas, she excelled. Only then did she find out that the rtionship between


    Grace Murphy and Olga was not good, there were even some unpleasant incidents over the shares…


    Olga had no love for Grace, every time Grace was affectionate towards Arabe, Olga’s distaste for


    Arabe deepened…


    Olga even thought of Arabe as a troublemaker, every time she came back, there would be mistakes


    at work, hence she was less and less willing toe home. Throughout the years, Attlee and Olga


    seldom came home, the bond between them and Arabe was very weak.


    Before, Olga disliked hearing Arabe cry, gradually, Arabe became a child who wouldn’t cry. To


    outsiders, she even seemed a bit aloof, not keen on mingling with people. After a long time, Arabe


    opened her eyes again. It was already day outside.


    She felt hollow inside.


    She picked up her phone to check the time, it was only half past six. On the screen were a few unread


    messages from Romeo.


    [Be.]


    [I miss you so much that I can’t sleep.]


    [I want to hold you as I sleep.]


    The emptiness in Arabe’s heart seemed to be filled with something, the sense of loss was gone,


    reced by a faint feeling of happiness.
