Chapter 1130 The Blood-Stained Doll Alfie squatted down and touched Hattie's hair, looking at her slightly guarded expression. He smiled and asked, "Hattie, have you forgotten aboutafter just a few months?" After all, they had known each other for over a decade, and Alfie had always been good to her in the past. Hattie wasn't too cold towards him either, and she replied, "Hello, Alfie." After speaking, Hattie grabbed Leon's arm and dragged him into the room.
Alfie stood quietly in the hallway, watching the Riddle siblings avoid him and return to their room. His eyes slightly darkened for a moment.
After closing the door, Hattie let go of Leon.
Leon frowned slightly, "Have you already taken sides so quickly?" Alfie had treated Hattie well in the past. It made sense that Hattie should prefer Alfie over Osvaldo. But Hattie's guarded expression towards him just now was so obvious.
Hattie wrinkled her nose slightly, "Brother, he helped Penelope last tand went against Selena!" It was one thing for Alfie to treat her well, but it was another thing to treat Selena poorly. Hattie couldn't just help him steal Selena away because he had been good to her.
Leon rubbed her head, "You're misunderstanding him. Alfie just wanted to help her, but..." He was just sabotaged by Osvaldo.
Hattie didn't have the energy to focus on these things at the moment. She ran to the bed, lifted the covers, and pulled out something from under the blanket. She held it in her hands and handed it to Leon.

It was a handmade cloth doll, wearing a white dress, with fair skin and big eyes. The stitching was precise, and even though it was a bit old after over a decade, it was still exquisite and soft. It looked a bit like Selena.
Or, perhaps it could be said to resemble Hattie.
But Hattie is very different from Selena in personality. People who are familiar with the two sisters can tell at a glance.
This is Selena in her childhood.
Selena's childhood doll appeared in the Riddle family...
Leon's eyes deepened suddenly, and he reached out and took the doll, saying, "Maybe it's what Lady Nevaeh made for you when you were a child..." "It's different!" Hattie shook her head, her voice suddenly becoming a bit sharp. "I have seen something similar with Selena. This is a toy that Aunt Nevaeh made for Selena with her own hands!" Because the Riddle family indulged their family of three, many things left by Nevaeh for Selena were taken away by the Chapman family.
After that, Osvaldo ordered people to find them all back for her.
Leia occasionally brought the retrieved items to Selena for inspection.
Hattie had seen it a few times, and the most impressive were the toys that Nevaeh made for her daughter.
So when she saw this doll for the first time, she was extremely sure that it was something from Selena's childhood! Leon's heart sank slightly, and he gently comforted her, "Maybe we are thinking too much..." His voice suddenly stiffened.
The cold gaze stared tightly at the doll that had just been turned over in his hand.
The entire back of the doll, on the white dress, was covered with dark and sticky marks.
Leon stared at those shocking marks, his eyes gradually covered with a layer of frost.
Hattie widened her eyes and said, "Brother, that's blood... isn't it?" Whose blood was it? How was this doll left in such a small and dark cabback then? Leon looked at Hattie's frightened eyes and gently patted her shoulder, his voice still calm, "Where did you find it?" Hattie's face was a bit pale. "In a small, very dark cabin the basement. | almost couldn't get out when | crawled in..." Leon knew that Hattie had been looking for evidence of the Riddle family killing her mother these days.
Obviously, she went to the basement, didn't find the evidence, but accidentally found Selena's doll in there.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was fortunate that Hattie was small and could crawl into the cabinet, which others would not have noticed.
Leon thought of Erica wanting to see Selena several times.
He remembered Daphne's unusual moment when Lady Nevaeh's death was mentioned.
A chill ran down Leon's back, and he took the doll and squatted down, looking at Hattie's eyes, "I will investigate this matter. Don't tell anyone for now!" Hattie spoke in a cold voice, "This is Selena's thing, it should be returned to Selena!" Leon looked at Hattie's cold eyes and sighed slightly. "It's not aboutprotecting anyone, it's about this matter..." Leon paused and then said, "She may have forgotten all about it." Leon was not sure how much Lady Selena, who was alive now, knew about the Riddle family and the Turner family. But he had a hunch that Selena definitely did not know about the story of this doll. Maybe because she was too young and had forgotten, or perhaps there was sunknown, deeper reason.
Anyway, Selena had forgotten everything about the Riddle family and this doll. If she really remembered, the first thing she would do when she returned to the capital would be to kill the Riddle family, rather than being calm and indifferent as she was now.
But...
Once this bloodstained doll was handed over to her, everything would be different. Leon couldn't be sure what changes Selena would go through, but the Riddle family would definitely be turned upside down by this.
Hattie was stunned. She had originally decided to give this doll to Selena as soon as she returned to the institute. But Leon said that Selena had forgotten about it. Would she be scared if she brought a doll covered in so much blood to Selena? Hattie frowned.
Leon looked at her cold face and promised, "I promise you that | won't protect anyone anymore. When the tis right in the future... | will definitely return this doll to her, okay?" Hattie remained silent for a long tand then said, "Okay, but brother, | must be the one to keep this doll!" This way, in case Leon breaks his promise, she can still send the doll back to Selena herself. Leon subconsciously felt that it was not appropriate, but looking at Hattie's determined expression, he had no choice but to solemnly warn her, "Okay, but remember, apart from the two of us, don't let anyone else know about this matter!" Hattie turned around and brought out an exquisite box from the toy room. She opened the box, took out her million-dollar custom- made beautiful doll and threw it aside. She carefully put Selena's doll into the box.
