Standing aside, Hester was dizzy and didn't know what to do. There were so many people. It was really
difficult to cope with!
Most importantly, why is Terence's assistant here?
"Be quiet!"
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more chaotic, Edmund threw his walking stick hard,
which shocked everyone. He put aside the agates on his fingertips and tightened the corners of his
mouth.
"Hester, come here!"
Raising her eyes to look at Leo, Hester walked slowly to him with a slight frown. She tightened her
hands on her side, with a trace of depression.
'Calm down, Hester, you must calm down!' She was alone and wouldn't get others involved.
"Don't be nervous. They are just making a mountain out of a molehill. As soon as I found you, all of
them rushed over. They don't know what to do!"
Edmund's sharp eyes swept across everyone present, and he was slightly angry. He had just found his
granddaughter, but she was about to be taken away by these people. It was really unpleasant.
"Dad, there has been no news about my sister for so many years. We are also anxious!"
Looking at Edmund's gloomy face, Eric was afraid of displeasing him, so he smiled apologetically.
With a light snort, Edmund didn't make things difficult for him. He rotated the agates in his hand, looked
at Hester, and calmly raised his lips.
'Rosemary's daughter must be a good girl.'
"Well, I don't want to argue with you anymore. Hester, tell me where your mother is now,"
He repeated the question. Hester stood still, trying her best to control her anger. This question had
always been a pain in her heart, and she would not easily speak it out.
"As I said, it has nothing to do with you!"
She said these words tremblingly, as if she had returned to the state of her mother's death. She was
also forced in the middle by such a group of people to inquire about her mother's whereabouts.
She had also said in a hoarse voice before that her mother had passed away, but those people were
still unwilling to let her go, saying that it was just a way for them to escape from the debt.
Seeing that Hester was not in a good condition, Leo stepped forward and held her hand. The cold
touch made him frown.
"Hester, don't be nervous. If you don't want to say it, don't think too much, okay?"
A gentle voice came to her ears, with an invincible magic to calm her mood fluctuation. Hester escaped
from the past and collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.
The sweat on her forehead wet her hair and stuck to her skin, making her very uncomfortable.
Eric stood up from the sofa, not as calm as usual. He stared at Hester in disbelief, not knowing what
had happened.
"Leo, what happened?"
Obviously, Edmund was also frightened. He sat quietly on the side with a straight face. The agates in
his hand were nowhere to be found, and he held his crutch tightly.
"What happened?"
Leo helped Hester sit on the sofa and patted her back to comfort her. He had tried to find out what had
happened to her, but the results were not ideal.
"Grandpa, don't worry. It's better to take it slow!"
Being told that he couldn't be anxious, Edmund could do nothing but hold back his anger. He sat on the
sofa gloomily.
Looking at the child, she was afraid that she must have suffered a lot with that man. He felt sorry for
her daughter, but she still wanted that man.
Rowena hurriedly asked Sheryl beside her to come forward. Hester's face had changed. If things went
on like this, she must be in trouble!
"Sheryl, help your cousin go to bed."
"Okay!"
Sheryl hurried to support Hester and slowly left the living room. In just more than ten minutes, the joy of
the Liu family had been replaced by worry.
They had thought that they would be able to find Rosemary as long as they could find her daughter. But
now she was in such a situation, which made the Liu family feel embarrassed!
"Leo, what's going on?"
With an excited look on his face, Edmund threw his crutch and roared angrily. How could his
granddaughter become like this?
Being called, Leo touched his nose awkwardly and regretted not helping Hester leave this place with
Sheryl.
Generally speaking, the Liu family had been secretly looking for his aunt in the past few years, but Mrs.
Qi was so shrewd that she hid everything well.
"Actually, what you see is the most real situation. I have known Hester for a long time. As you guessed,
I am her psychologist and am treating her.
As for knowing her true identity, I did know it earlier than you did. But I have to make it clear in
advance. I don't know much about it!"
Eric looked at his son with a sullen face, and his chest heaved violently. His son was born rebellious
and always acted casually.
"Why haven't we found her for so many years?"
Being stabbed in the vital part by his father, Leo felt very tired. He raised his hand and pinched
between his eyebrows, trying hard to resist the desire to run away. He felt like sitting on pins and
needles.
He had just solved Hester's problem. Was he going to solve his grandfather's problem now? If he knew
what had happened to his daughter, he would probably pass out on the spot!
"Hardy, would you like to invite your son here?"
Hardy frowned and was confused. His son was now a family doctor of the Liu family. Why did Leo ask
him to come here for no reason?
"Why do you say that, young master?"
Scratching the back of his head awkwardly, Leo, who had always been unrestrained, braced himself up
and felt the pressure under the eager gaze of the elders.
He would get through this sooner or later. There shouldn't be any difference if it was a little late!
"Hardy, don't ask too much. Call your son here quickly!"
Looking at Leo's serious face, Hardy didn't dare to delay. He called his son in a hurry for fear.
Edmund took a deep breath and looked much older in an instant. He lay on the chair with a tired look
on his face and dark eyes.
"Leo, go ahead!"
