"Kimberly, I think Brother Yardley is very kind to you. Are you really not going to tell him?" Sylvia suddenly said in a serious tone, "Is it because you don't dare to? If that's the case, how about I tell him for you?" Deep down, she couldn't wait anymore and was very eager to do so.

Kimberly was shocked when she heard Sylvia's offer. Before she could react, she immediately blurted out, "No!" The excited look on Sylvia's face instantly got lost and her eyes turned dull.

The atmosphere becsilent again.

No one said a word, and they each had their own thoughts.

Sylvia stared at Kimberly, and her hands tightened a little under the table.

Sylvia thought that Kimberly would be happy after knowing the news. After all, she was very close to Benedict, wasn't she? Why didn't she want to be with him? Why was she still pestering Maddox? Sometimes, Sylvia would think that Kimberly was going too far for not wanting to let the two men go.

Sylvia had completely forgotten the fact that she had taken Kimberly's identity and deceived her.

After that, the two of them parted. Sylvia returned to the Hanover family with a heavy mood. When she entered, she noticed Quill's car and felt a bit strange. She asked the servant, "Didn't my brother go to work today?" The servant replied respectfully, "Sir is not feeling well today. He is working at home." Sylvia was stunned, "Is he not feeling well? I'll go and have a look." The servant quickly followed and called after her, "Miss, Mr. Hanover ordered that no one should disturb him." Sylvia scoffed, "What a joke. I am his sister. What do you mean by disturbing him? I am just going to visit my sick brother. What are you yelling about?" As she spoke, Sylvia's expression looked very fierce.

The servant bowed his head and did not dare to continue.

Sylvia then headed to Quill's room straight away.

Quill's room was not locked, and there was someone inside.

"President Hanover, this is the results for the investigation on Miss Shell." It was Juliette's voice. Sylvia immediately leaned against the door, peeked through the gap and listened intently. "Leave it here." Quill's deep voice was dry and hoarse. Indeed, he sounded like he was under the weather.

Juliette continued, "President Hanover, why did you wantto investigate Miss Shell? Is it just because she is Miss Sylvia's friend? According to the investigation, Miss Shell has a good personality and is fine. in all aspects, but... she is a little pitiful." In fact, Juliette should not have said these words. Usually, if she elaborated on any issue, Quill would not pay attention to her. She had learned to stress the important points only.

However, Juliette noticed that Quill was getting more and more interested in Kimberly recently, and so she chose to elaborate a bit more.

After a moment of silence, Juliette coughed softly. She thought she had said too much and wanted to stop talking. However, she heard Quill asking in a low voice, "Pitiful?" "Yes." Juliette nodded and replied, "Her previous husband had a mistress, but Miss Shell didn't find out for two years. One day, her husband won the lottery. She thought she could live a good life, but she got divorced instead. It turned out that the mistress was pregnant and in the end, Miss Shell was left empty-handed." Upon hearing this, Quill frowned and asked, "Empty-handed?" Juliette continued, "Yes. Erica Shell, Miss Shell's sister, should've been married to the Yardley family. But Mrs. Shell, their mother, learned that Erica would be marrying a disabled man. She didn't like that, and since Miss Shell was newly divorced, she let her marry into the Yardley family on behalf of Erica." She added, "That day... when we saw her in the conference room, I guess... that's Kimberly's current condition." Hearing this, Quill did not say a word anymore. He just tapped his finger on the table lightly and made a contemplating noise. Although he was expressionless, Juliette knew that he was a little angry. But... why was he angry? It hadn't been long since he had met Kimberly. Could it be... he had fallen in love with her so quickly? But that couldn't be the case. Although Kimberly had an unfortunate life, she was not so beautiful to captivate Quill in such a short time.

But then again, someone's appearance was never Quill's priority. He was different from other men and was never tempted by beauty.

Nevertheless, no matter if it was love at first sight, Kimberly was still a married woman.

Thinking of this, Juliette wanted to remind Quill about it. But when she saw his stern face, she swallowed her words and remained silent.

She knew Quill had a sense of propriety in everything he did. She'd better not meddle in his business.

Sylvia hid outside the door and eavesdropped carefully at their conversation. After the conversation ended, Sylvia's face bechorrifyingly pale like a piece of paper.

She could not believe that Quill had asked Juliette to investigate Kimberly.

Why would he do that? Also, she had very obviously heard Quill's concern towards Kimberly.

When she remembered her fake identity, Sylvia was afraid. She wondered if Quill would be suspicious of her identity as he was always so indifferent towards her.

Or perhaps, he had never accepted her as his younger sister from the very beginning...

And now that he had met Kimberly, he had begun to investigate her immediately.

No, this couldn't be...

It was not easy for Sylvia to get Kimberly's identity. She enjoyed all the benefits she got from the title of the Hanover family Miss. She was able to enjoy good food every day, live in an ideal mansion and shop extravagantly for perfumes, luxury bags, makeups, clothes and so on. Many girls were extremely jealous of her. She was now living in cloud nine, and she could never give all these up.

Sylvia wondered what she could do. She was so anxious to the point her eyes reddened. Suddenly, she heard Juliette spoke again.

Juliette said, "President Hanover, if you're okay with everything, I'll excuse myself first." Quill hummed a response.

Then, Sylvia heard footsteps coming towards her. She cto her senses and realized where she was. Juliette would cout soon and see her.

She couldn't let Juliette find out that she was eavesdropping on them.

Thus, she left quickly.

She hid in the corner and saw Juliette exit from the room and walked down the stairs.

Halfway, Juliette turned her head around and glanced at Sylvia's hiding spot as though she had sensed m something. Sylvia thought Juliette saw her, she was frightened and hurriedly hid behind the wall, her breathing quickened. Juliette was Quill's secretary. If she found out...

Fortunately, the sound of her high heels soon faded away. Sylvia found herself drenched in a cold sweat and she sat down feebly, sliding against the wall.

"What should I do? Quill has already begun to investigate Kimberly, will he find out that Kimberly is the real ΝΩ daughter of the Hanover family? If he finds out, what should I do?" Sylvia thought worriedly. She didn't want to go back to her previous life, where it was dark and hopeless.

"No I have to think of a way, think of a way..." Sylvia murmured to herself.
