Chapter 3311

“Husband, who is it?” When Alice heard the ringtone, she turned and sat up, leaning over to hug her crying son.

“Honey, don’t hug him. If you do, he won’t drink the milk powder I prepared.” Clive quickly intervened, stopping Alice from holding their son.

“The little guy is quite mischievous. He won’t drink the milk powder if he catches your scent,” Clive added as he prepared the milk. Noticing their son already making a fuss, Alice decided against hugging him; it was fine for him to cry a little.

While mixing the milk powder, Clive mentioned, “The butler called to say that some elderly people are here looking for Mom. They claim to be the ones she’s been searching for. I’m not sure if it’s true, but I’ve asked the butler to entertain them for now. Once I feed our son, I’ll go downstairs to check it out.”

“Are they the individuals Mom was seeking most closely associated with Grandma while she was alive?”

Alice was aware of Audrey’s past experiences and her grievances with the Farrell family. She also knew that Clive had arranged assistance for Audrey in her search, but they had yet to find anyone.

After all, decades had gone by, and even Audrey had only a vague memory of that person’s appearance. After so many years, that individual could hardly resemble the person her mother-in-law remembered. Moreover, if he were still alive, he would be in his nineties or nearly a hundred. They genuinely hesitated to maintain any hope.

Deep down, she feared the old man might have passed long ago. It was challenging to approach her mother-in-law, but they had made a collective effort to find someone to assist. Perhaps a miracle could happen. Just like her mother-in-law, Audrey, who was searching…

For twenty or thirty years, she searched for her sister, believing there was no hope. Eventually, she found two nieces, Serenity and Liberty.

This discovery also brought comfort to her mother-in-law. Since the meeting of Audrey, Serenity, and Liberty, Alice noticed a significant improvement in her mother-in-law’s spirits. Her mother-in-law began contemplating avenging her grandmother, perhaps feeling that she now had someone to share the burden with. Alice sensed that her mother-in-law was less anxious about finding her sister.

Liberty’s business in Jensburg was thriving; the company had gotten off to a strong start. She had secured numerous business deals and was still in the process of recruiting new employees.

Recruiting is essential for any business.

Alice had previously doubted the capabilities of the Farrell family’s daughter. However, witnessing Liberty’s transition to Jensburg changed her perspective. While it may not have been difficult to establish a company with investments from three major groups, Liberty had to rely on her own skills to negotiate successful business agreements.

Liberty’s ability to secure such deals demonstrated her true competence.

Perhaps it was indeed a familial trait.

For instance, despite her mother-in-law growing up in an orphanage, she managed to earn the trust of her boss through hard work, ultimately leading to her son marrying her.

Alice often heard stories about her mother-in-law’s dominance in the business world during her youth, and she held her in high regard.

In her younger days, Clive’s grandmother bullied Audrey, but after Alice married Clive, Audrey never mistreated her.

Audrey expressed her desire to shield Alice from experiencing hardship again, drawing from her own past struggles. Their relationship had evolved into one akin to that of a mother and daughter.

Clive prepared the milk powder and brought it over, picking up his crying son to comfort him before…

Feeding him milk powder.

The little guy was very hungry and finally had something to eat. It didn’t matter whether it was breast milk or milk powder; the priority was to eat first.

Clive remarked, “Yes, but I’m not sure if it’s true. I need to wait for Mom to wake up. She should see him, but even she might not recognize him.”

Audrey was only eight years old when the accident occurred at her grandmother’s house. Decades have passed, and even with a good memory, she might not recall the old assistant.

“He wouldn’t dare to lie, even if he tried to think of one,” Alice commented.

Clive added, “I hope it’s that old gentleman; it would make our search so much easier.”

Alice then said, “Could you ask Julian if there’s any news? Are you certain that the elderly people who came here are genuine?”
