Chapter 13
He didn’t know how long it took, but he finally accepted this reality.
Her face, however, looked as if it had been slapped hard by someone, extremely ironic.
Just at that moment, Sherlyn had finished packing up her belongings and respectfully bowed to Edgar.
“Mr. Ferguson, I have said all I can. Amelia is not a good woman. You have betrayed Mrs. Ferguson, who is so good to you. If you continue not to believe her, you will regret it sooner or later.”
“No matter how you plan to treat Amelia in the future, these things have nothing to do with me anymore. I hope you can overlook my interference this time, considering the friendship I had with you in the past. I have already told your mother about resigning, and after today, I will not come to serve you anymore. I hope you find a suitable nanny soon.”
After saying goodbye, Sherlyn left without a trace, taking her luggage with her.
She was getting old, and in the past, she was willing to stay here to continue taking care of Edgar and Stephanie, all out of consideration for their past friendship and Stephanie’s kindness.
There is no need to stay any longer now.
The whole house fell into a dead silence in an instant, with only the surveillance on the computer still playing, as if mocking Edgar’s
foolishness.
He felt empty and lost in his heart, with a kind of indescribable panic, as if something very important was missing.

If this time, it was Amelia who lied, does that mean that every time in the past was also Amelia who lied?
Once the seed of doubt is planted, as long as there is a little sprout, it will instantly take root, sprout, and grow into a towering tree.
Edgar exuded a chilling aura as he dialed his assistant’s phone number.
“Help me check where Stephanie went for the whole day after I asked you to have someone smash Stephanie’s workstation a month ago.”
After receiving the order, the assistant immediately went to investigate.
During the few minutes of waiting, Edgar felt as if he had endured a
century.
If Amelia has been lying all this time, then what has he been doing to Stephanie these days?!
Just the thought of it made him somewhat unable to accept it.
The heart ached faintly, bitterness rising layer by layer.
Just then, Amelia sent him a few pitiful emojis.
“Mr. Ferguson, what’s been going on with you these past few days? Why haven’t you come to see me, is it… that you no longer want to pursue me?”
“But I was about to… I was about to agree with you.”
“I know you still can’t let go of Ms. Sanchez, but both of you are divorced. Ms. Sanchez probably won’t come back, right? Can you try to let go of her and be good to me only?”
Looking at these few sentences, if it were in the past, Edgar might still have some soft spot, maybe the next second, he would go over to accompany her, and promise her all her wishes.

However, after realizing that she may have been lying to him all along, he inexplicably felt that all of her words seemed very fake.
Her emotions were fake, every word she said was secretly hiding countless intentions.
During this time, she has been stringing him along, sometimes distant and sometimes close, with only one ultimate goal in mind.
There is no doubt that she only wanted to marry him, to enjoy wealth and luxury, and to receive his unique love and affection.
Edgar’s face was dark, his long fingers hovering over the screen for a long time, but he didn’t type a single word.
Until then, the assistant called.
“Mr. Ferguson, that day all of Mrs. Ferguson’s whereabouts were checked, specific surveillance footage and photos have been sent to you. After Mrs. Ferguson separated from you that day, she didn’t go anywhere, she went straight home to rest, she didn’t even go to the school to look for Ms. Gibson.”
“According to Ms. Gibson’s roommate, it was said that Mrs. Ferguson did not send any threatening messages to Ms. Gibson that day, asking her to delete all ways of chatting with you. In fact, just moments before Ms. Gibson went to confide in you, she was still laughing and chatting with friends, saying she wanted to give them gifts.”
Upon hearing this, even if Edgar was a fool, he should have realized that Amelia was a complete fraud!
