Aurora Dourada: Retorno By Ricardo Almeida

Just then, the doorbell rang.

“It’s late. Who could that be?” Steven expressed his confusion.

“Steve, go and get the door. It’s a guest I’ve invited,” Bella instructed

calmly.

A guest? Ms. Bella did not inform him that there would be a guest

tonight. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Steven did not have time to think much about it and went to the

entrance to open the door.

Outside stood a delicate-looking young woman in her twenties, dressed casually in athletic wear and sporting a black baseball cap.

“Are you…” Steven suddenly froze, sizing her up.

“I-I’m L-Linny. I work as a caretaker for the Salvador family, specifically attending to Ms. Carrie.” Linny introduced herself nervously as she glanced around.

Steven quickly caught on upon hearing she was Carrie’s caretaker.

“Linny, I’m sorry I couldn’t come to pick you up due to some special

circumstances. I really appreciate you coming here on your own.”

Bella hurriedly greeted Linny, took the girl’s hand, and led her into the villa’s living room. “It must’ve been cold outside. Look at your hands. They’re freezing! I told you to take a taxi here. Don’t worry about the

fare.”

“I didn’t take a taxi. I took the bus and then the train. It’s pretty

convinny

replied quickly, her cheeks flushed from the cold.

Seeing the once noble Young Madam show such concern for her, Linny felt her lips tremble with indescribable gratitude.

Bella could not help but feel a sense of sympathy, knowing Linny had to walk quite a distance from the train station to her villa, all while enduring the chilly winds.

She knew Linny still had reservations about spending money.

Steven promptly brewed a cup of hot tea for Linny and kindly brought

her a hand warmer to hold.

Seated on the sofa in the living room, the young girl took a while to

shake off the chill in her body.

“Young Ma-No, I mean Ms. Thompson. Thank you for always looking out for Ms. Carrie.” Linny expressed her gratitude sincerely

Linny’s voice was gentle yet resolute as she spoke. “I witnessed how kind you were to Ms. Carrie during your time at Tideview Manor. For her sake, I’m willing to do whatever you ask of me.”

Bella gazed deeply into the young girl’s eyes. They were so clear and pure, like Carrie’s. Suddenly, she felt a weight descend on her heart.

Bella was not sure if this decision was the right one, but she needed to place someone trustworthy and reliable by Shannon’s side. But apart from Wilma, there was no one else she could rely on.

After a thorough investigation, she had chosen Linny for this role.

Steven pursed his lips. He knew that Bella intended for Linny to act as a spy, gathering information from Shannon’s side.

“Linny, I need you to gain Shannon’s trust and infiltrate her inner circle. If possible, I’d like you to install a bug in her room.”

Bella’s expression darkened as she spoke frankly. “In the days to come, I want to be aware of everything Shannon does.”

Linny suddenly froze, clutched the hand warmer tightly, and went

silent.

“Linny, I understand that this task isn’t easy for you. After all,

Shannon is Carrie’s mother and the matron of the Salvador family.

There will certainly be risks…”

“Alright, I’ll do it.”
