Athena paused for a moment.
"At that time, I didn't know that Lien was already with my useless son. I thought Stacy was having an
affair and didn't listen to her explanation. I kicked her out of the house. Later, this matter became widely
known in high society," Rose cried and said, "I only found out this year that Lien bribed the maid,
drugged Stacy, and intentionally led me to catch them!
"I can't imagine how embarrassing and desperate Stacy felt at that time!"
Athena suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Nauseous.
"Did Sir William know the truth?" Athena asked.
"That childhood sweetheart of Stacy was one of Herman's students... When the incident happened, the
boy immediately went to explain it to Herman. Stacy was raised by Herman, and he knew both of their
characters very well. So he didn't believe it and argued with me... Two years later, Lien and my son got
married, and Herman probably realized something by then and stopped associating with these two
people. I always thought it was Herman being partial towards Stacy..."
To tell the truth, Athena also thought Rose was going too far with this matter.
Perhaps Rose trusted her son too blindly.
Lien was probably putting in a lot of effort to exacerbate the misunderstanding.
After all, there were too many ways to wrong someone.
"After Stacy left, did she go back to Sir William's side?" Athena asked.
She really wanted to know what happened to Stacy.
She still hoped that Stacy was alive.
Otherwise, it would be granting the wish of that despicable couple!
Rose shook her head and said, "No... I heard she went to find her biological parents."
"Didn't you say they were scum?" Athena frowned.
"They were Lien's adoptive parents. I haven't found out the details, but they aren't Stacy's biological
parents."
If Stacy's parents were Lien's adoptive parents, it would be easy for Rose to find them.
This was getting mysteriously complicated.
It was possible that fate was on the side of that unfortunate girl, ensuring that she remained hidden
from those individuals.
Herman was cremated the day he died.
Initially, Lien insisted on holding a memorial service and inviting well-known figures from his father's
acquaintances.
But Herman's legal team arrived in time and stopped that.
After the cremation, as the sky grew dark, Rose saw Athena constantly looking at the time and
prepared to leave with her.
Just as they were about to leave, Herman's lawyer ran over.
"Madam Stella, I finally found you!"
"What's the matter?" Rose asked.
"Sir William's will is about to be read, and according to his wishes, you need to be present," the lawyer
said solemnly.
Hearing it was about the will, Athena felt it would be inappropriate for her to participate.
Plus, Byron was urging her to go back, so she left first.
After a while.
In the conference room.
Lien had an unpleasant expression on her face.
She couldn't understand why Rose had to be here when reading her father's will.
Once everyone was present, the lawyer began reading the will.
Although Herman was low-key, he was a master of investments.
He had accumulated quite a few assets.
"According to Sir William's wishes, one-third of his movable assets will be used to establish a charitable
foundation to help missing children return home."
Lien lowered her eyes as she thought of something. She clenched her fists, her nails digging into her
palms.
"One-third will be allocated to Mr. Ricky Lutz's research laboratory!"
"What?" Cato stood up abruptly.
He was angry and shocked.
Ricky was the man who had been caught sleeping with Stacy.
The lawyer ignored Cato and kept reading.
"The remaining movable assets and all of Sir William's immovable assets will be inherited by Ms. Stacy
William's daughter."
