In the evening, Lucia returned home. As soon as she walked into the living room, Jane handed her the
envelope that hadn't been unfolded and said, "Mrs. Lucia, here is a copy of your package."
"Package?" Lucia was confused. She looked at the stuff in her hands and then didn't reach out to take
it.
"Yes." Jane nodded, "The courier said that he wanted you to open it."
Lucia was even more confused. She hadn't bought anything and nobody sent her anything. But
somehow, she received the package.
"Mrs. Lucia," Seeing that she had no intention to take it, Jane called out again.
The sound brought back Lucia's mind. She took over the package and had a look at it. The recipient
indeed had her name on it and important information was added.
Important documents?
Was it from them? Then she looked up at Jane and asked, "Where are Eden and Claire? Have they
come back?"
"Miss Claire is back. She is in her room. Mr. Eden is in the company now." Jane replied frankly.
Eden had been busy with a project with AF Company these days. In order to gain more knowledge, he
had to not only pay attention to his studies, but also his career.
"Yes." Lucia nodded and said, "Go ahead with your work."
"Yes, Mrs. Lucia." Then Jane turned around and went into the kitchen, preparing the dinner.
Lucia returned to her bedroom with the package, put it on the dresser and sat down on the soft stool in
front of the dresser and began to unwrap the bag.
The package was opened to be a stack of photos and paper documents. She frowned in confusion at
the sight of the photos. She had seen them on the headlines of the morning newspaper the other day.
What had they sent to her for?
Lucia put the photo aside and then took out the paper. She only took a glance at it and her face turned
to the first page, the second page…
Click!
The documents in her hand fell to the ground, and her face instantly turned pale. She stood up, walked
to the door, and slammed. Then she leaned against the door, and pressed her chest with one hand.
She didn't expect someone to investigate her, Claire and Eden.
Suddenly, it seemed that Lucia understood something. She picked up the documents that fell on the
ground, put all the photos into the paper bag, turned around and walked directly towards Claire's room.
She went straight to the door and pushed it open.
"Mom?" Claire, who was lying on the bed and playing with her mobile phone, saw Lucia coming in and
sat up. When she saw that Lucia looked unhappy with something in her hand, she was confused and
asked, "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? How dare you ask me what happened?" Lucia looked at her angrily, threw the bag on
her and said, "Open it and ask me what happened after you read it!"
Glancing at Lucia in confusion, Claire picked up the paper bag and looked through it. Suddenly, her
face changed and her hands trembled, and the photos and paper were scattered all over the floor.
"You did that, didn't you?" Lucia asked in a tone of affirmation.
Claire looked evasive, but had to admit, she nodded weakly. "Yes."
"Who told you to do that? Ah?" Lucia lost her temper. "Well, now someone has found evidence. If your
father knows this, he will not let go of you!"
"No, Mommy, you can't tell Daddy." Claire was flustered. She grabbed Lucia's hands with both of her
hands, looked up at her and begged, "Please don't tell him. Although that little bitch was humiliated, it
had a bad impact on the Qiao family. My father was already angry about this. If he knew it was me who
did it, he would definitely throw me out of the family."
"Now you are afraid? Why didn't you feel scared when you did it?" Lucia glared at her.
"I was thinking about ruining her reputation. She was spoiled by grandpa, and even dad couldn't do
anything about her." Speaking of Lily, Claire's eyes were full of disgust. "That's fine. That's all right. At
first, I was afraid that Frank would go to find her in secret again. Just at that night, I saw the she and
Eric in the bathroom. I took a picture without thinking and then showed it to the newspaper. I just
wanted to ruin her reputation."
"She deserves to lose her reputation, but you were too rash." Lucia cooled down a little bit.
"Mom, I know I was wrong. I will be extremely careful. I didn't expect that someone would find the
evidence."
"Future? Do you still want the future? Stop doing this for me. I'll teach you a lesson if you mess it up!"
Lucia shook Claire's hand off and poked at her forehead.
"Ouch." Covering the part with her hand which was poked by Lucia, Claire gave a cry of pain. She
looked at Lucia pitifully and said, "I know, mom. Please keep this secret for me and never tell Dad."
"Okay." Lucia glared at her and said, "In these days, study hard. And don't push too hard on Frank.
Leave him some personal space. If you always stay with him, he will be disgusted with you; if he is
disgusted with you, he will directly disappoint you. By then, you will not be able to in the Qiao family if
he repents of his marriage. By that time, you will have no foothold in the Qiao family. Mr. Joe is the one
you should care about, he isn't easy to get along with."
"I know, mom." Claire replied. Although she was still young, she knew something. All businessmen put
their interests first. If she lost her original value, she would be treated as a rubbish in the Qiao family.
By that time, Joe would probably hate her more.
"Behave well if you know. I will not let the little bitch live too well. You'd better not intervene in anything."
Lucia said.
"Okay, I will do as you say," Claire promised.
Lucia calmed down but her brow was still wrinkled. Obviously, others had already put their eyes on her.
'damn it.
At this moment, someone went upstairs. Lucia and Claire looked at each other and felt confused.
Lucia hurriedly squatted down to pick up the photos and documents scattered on the floor. In this,
Claire jumped out of the bed and joined her.
When Claire was picking up the paper, she suddenly stopped, handed a half piece of paper to Lucia
and said, "Mom, look."
With a confused look on her face, Lucia took the note and read it. She breathed a sigh of relief and her
heart sank.
The content of the note was very simple, and it said, "Mrs. Lucia, take care of your daughter. If I find
that she does something bad again, don't blame me for getting back at her.
The words were printed and not in hand. Although she didn't know who the person was, fortunately, he
didn't find her. He only found Claire. From this, as long as Claire stopped doing anything harmful to that
little bitch, nothing bad would happen.
"From now on, you should be quiet! Do you understand?" Whispered Lucia.
"Yes!" Claire nodded hard, but did not stop what she was doing. Because the sound of the footsteps
outside the door was getting clearer and clearer.
The mother and the daughter were again in a hurry to pick up things. They did not have time to put
them in the paper bag and directly hid them into the quilt. Then Claire sat on it.
As soon as she sat, the door was pushed open. And Dillon appeared at the door. He looked at Lucia
and asked, "What are you doing in Claire's room?"
"Uh, Claire is uncomfortable. I'm here to check on her." An unnatural expression flashed on Lucia's
face and she answered.
"What's wrong?" Dillon came in with a worried face. "What's wrong with you? Did you call doctor and
ask him to come and check on Claire?"
Lucia looked flustered and when she was about to find an excuse, Claire said in a shy tone, "Dad, you
don't have to ask him for help with this kind of thing. Girls will always feel uncomfortable for several
days."
Hearing her words, Dillon obviously nodded and turned to look at Lucia. "Then for the next few days,
you should take good care of her. Something could eat or not you should be careful."
Lucia nodded, "Of course I know to take care of her. You need to take good care of yourself these
days. The day after tomorrow is the day when you sign a contract with AF Company. You can't have
any problem in these two days."
"Don't worry about it. Eden is still waiting for me in the study. I'll go first." After saying that, Dillon took a
look at them and then turned around, intending to leave.
The mother and the daughter looked at each other, and then they let out a sigh of relief. Just as they
relaxed, they saw Dillon bend down and pick up a piece of paper. He looked down at the paper and
turned around to them. "How could there be a basic information about Claire?"
Lucia's heart sank. She was so panic just now that she even picked up one!
"Well..." Claire rolled her eyes and said, "The teacher asked me to prepare that. It's for the school."
"For the school?" Puzzled, Dillon looked at her and said, "Didn't every one of you have their documents
on records? Why do they need this?"
"Yeah, but it seems that I have lost it. So the teacher asked me to make up for it." Claire emphasized.
"Then why do you throw it?" He gave her a reproachful look and handed her the paper. "From now on,
don't be so ignorant of your manner."
"I know, father. I won't be so careless anymore." Claire promised as she took the papers.
"Yes." He then left the room.
It was not until the door was closed that the mother and the daughter could completely breathe a sigh
of relief. Lucia gave Claire a reproachful stare. "Destroy all these documents. I'll take some fruit and
send them to the study."
"Okay." Claire nodded.
