Chapter 13 In the Wallis familys old house.
This house had stood for centuries, yet it looked remarkably fresh thanks to its continuous upkeep.
It had served as a testament to the glory of the Wallis family for generations.
Sienna enthusiastically brought Rita inside, and on the way, they ran into Emma Wood, Nelsons mother.
Mom! I brought my sister-in-law back! Compared with Siennas joy, Emmas face was full of indifference.
She was drinking tea.
Hearing that, she put down the teacup in her hand and said to Sienna, Go to the kitchen and see if the dessert prepared for Rita is ready.
Mom, Grandpa is in a hurry to see Rita.
Wait for me to take her to Grandpa first.
Emmas tone was non-negotiable.
Im asking you to go now.
Sienna shrank her neck instinctively.

Rita let go of Siennas hand and said, Im fine, just go.
Hearing Ritas words, Sienna said, Okay, Ill go and have a look.
As soon as Sienna left, Emma shouted at Rita.
You disappear for three years, and the moment you show up again, you stir up trouble.
Youre a real troublemaker.
Every word punctuated with anger.
She didnt care about how Rita had been these years.
She just wanted to judge her for how much trouble she had brought to the Wallis family.
Ha, arent those troublesa form of retribution for the Wallis? thought Rita.
To outsiders, being part of a wealthy and powerful family may seem glamorous, but only those on the inside truly know how cold and lonely it can be.
The way Nelson had turned out was closely tied to hisselfish parents.
The impact is because of my marriage to Nelson Wallis.

Rita said, But dont worry, well be ending it soon.
Emmas face darkened.
You will divorce? Rita smiled.
Isnt that what you want? Emma flew into a rage, You Rita maintained her composure.Grandpa is still waiting for me.
Ill take my leave.
She walked past Emma and made her way towards the Old Master.
Once, she had tried to please Emma and earn her respect, but all she got in return was ridicule.
Now that she no longer cared for Nelson, she no longer had to tolerate Emmas bad temper.
She could finally stand up for herself.
…… Rita was familiar with the old house.
Even if there was no one to lead the way, she knew where to find the old master.
Lady Rita.

When the old masters butler saw Rita from a distance, he greeted her with a smile.
Youre finally back.
Is grandpa all right? Because of the old masters attitude, thebutlerhad always treated Rita like his own granddaughter.
Rita spoke to him gently out of respect.
The butler nodded and said, The Old Master is doing well.
He was extremely worried when he heard about your car accident.
He sent people to look for you all these years, but they didnt find you.
Thankfully, youve returned on your own.
To be honest, Rita didnt expect so many people to have been concerned about her.
Nelson didnt believe she was dead and had been Nelsonrching for her for three years.
She knew that when she was abroad, but hadnt cared much about it.
But today, when she heard that the Old Master had been worried about her for three years, she felt a little sad.
