Chapter 7
Just when everyone felt hopeless, a light and calm girl’s voice came from outside.
Suddenly, everyone looked towards the door.
The girl at the door looked to be no more than twenty years old, wearing a peaked cap and a T–shirt with straight pants. She appeared quite fresh and clean. But in these Lloyds‘ eyes, she also looked quite poor and shabby.
Who are you? Who let you in?!” Byron stood up abruptly, questioning.
Juliette, however, became excited, exclaiming, “Ashlee! It’s you! You’re back!”
Ashlee looked at Juliette, and the corners of her lips slightly curled.“To be precise, I am out.”
Others, when seeing Juliette so excited, were all stunned and confused.
Juliette had always been à composed woman. Why did she become so excited when seeing Ashlee?
The other Lloyds looked at each other in confusion, wondering who Ashlee was.
Do you know her, Juliette?” Doreen asked with a skeptical expression.“Don’t tell me she’s your secret daughter.”
Juliette had now calmed down completely and looked at Ashlee with a smile, replying, “She is the person who can save Mom.”
Juliette’s words caused an uproar in the room.
“Are you kidding us?”
Just her? What can a young girl do?”
“Did you get deceived? Even the world’s top experts couldn’t cure Mom! But she can?”
“Wait, is this the person you said could save Mom? Juliette, are you kidding me?”
No one in the Lloyd family believed Juliette’s words.
They questioned and even started mocking, thinking Juliette was crazy.
Juliette’s face darkened. She claimed, “I invited Ashlee to cure Mom. If anything goes wrong, I will take full responsibility.”
Ashlee, on the other hand, completely ignored their mockery and asked Juliette straightforwardly, “Did you bring the things I need with you?”
Juliette nodded.“I’ve been keeping it with me at all times, especially today.“.
With that, she immediately gestured to her secretary, who promptly took out a mahogany box from her Hermes bag.
Ashlee took the box and opened it, and everyone present saw that there were nine special tools in it.
