NovelEnglishChapter 374:
Gilda’s words left Chayce speechless.
He felt like he was always the scapegoat. No matter the situation, Gilda always pointed fingers at him. But he
was accustomed to it and didn’t argue.
Gilda looked up at Norah and noticed her red eyes; Norah seemed to have been crying.
“Damn it. Miss, did Iker’s family give you a hard time?” Gilda and Chayce, as assistants, had been waiting at the
door.
Soon after the Wilsons stepped into the villa, Iker and his family emerged with grim expressions. Hank and Elsa
were still swearing. Gilda had believed that Norah had the upper hand.
But then she found Norah in tears.
Gilda clenched her fists.
“We might just be assistants, but we can still stand up for you against Iker’s family. Don’t feel down, please.
Chayce and | will sort them out for you.”

She grabbed Chayce’s hand and stormed off.
“Cwith me, Miss Norah. We'll make sure they regret upsetting you.”

“It has nothing to do with them.”
Norah's voice was hoarse from crying.
“I discovered something.”
Norah lifted a notebook.
“It just stirred semotions in me.”
Gilda glanced at the notebook in Norah's grip.
“I remember that notebook.”
She was a few years older than Norah. When she was young, she used to be with Bernice. Bernice had been
going through a tough tback then, grieving over the loss of her child. She would spend her free twriting
and drawing in a notebook.
“Mrs. Wilson used to record everything in that notebook. After she died, | lost track of it and eventually forgot
about it.”
After Calvin and Bernice died in a car accident, everything in the villa should have been cleared away. But after
the funeral, before Iker and his family could start cleaning, Gilda had returned with the paternity test report and
stopped them from touching anything in the villa.
That was why the villa had remained untouched all these years.
Norah's slim fingers tightened around the notebook before she passed it to Gilda.
“Keep this for me. Hand it over when we return. And arrange for someone to clean up the villa. I'm thinking of
moving back here eventually.”
She wiped her tears, maintaining her composure and self-control.
Yet, beneath her calm exterior, sadness and remorse lingered.
She had hardly had a chance to know her parents before they left her forever.

“By the way, are you aware of the original contents of the villa? | just checked and noticed that Iker and his
family ‘borrowed’ a lot of things. Keep an eye on them when they cback to return everything later.”
Gilda responded with a nod.
“Sure. But it's odd. Why would they decide to return what they've taken? That seems out of character.”
Whenever Gilda and Chayce felt nostalgic about Calvin and Bernice, they would visit the villa. They noticed that
various decorations and antiques were missing, but they didn’t say anything.
They didn’t really have the authority to speak up. After all, they were merely assistants. Interfering with those
items might have led to criticism against them.
So, they chose to overlook it.
Now that Norah mentioned it, they felt a sense of relief. Norah's concern for Calvin and Bernice’s belongings,
treating them as her own, was comforting.
Gilda believed that if Norah could reclaim her rightful place in the Wilson family, her parents’ legacy wouldn't go
to waste.
Now, Gilda and Chayce felt relieved, as long as Norah's life went well.
