Chapter 5 He Would Be With Her for the Rest of His Life
Hilda laughed even more impudently, "This is just the beginning!"
What she wanted was to take down Melinda and Phillip. Yes, Phillip was in power now, so what? He
was a bastard. He was no match for her!
He was powerful now, but when the truth was revealed, but Hilda was looking forward to see them go
crazy and become a laughing stock!
Hilda just couldn't wait to see that day! It was gonna be fun!
"The baby's mother..." Hilda hung up before Phillip could finish his sentence.
He clenched his fists.
Clearly, Hilda meant to torture him and wouldn't let him know the baby's mother's whereabouts.
Sadly, he wasn't powerful enough to deal with her yet.
Phillip lowered his head and looked at the two babies in the cart. They were fair and tender, almost
identical in appearance. They were crying hard. Phillip hesitantly reached out and touched them, and
one of them grabbed his fingers.
That baby stopped crying almost instantly. Tears still hanging on his face, he stared at Phillip without
blinking. His eyes were big, black, and bright.
Those innocent eyes. He didn't understand that his mother was missing.
Phillip had a complicated look on his face, lips curling into a straight line. He raised his eyes to look at
the sky, his gaze cold.
...
Five years later, Hilda Lind from the Moore Family disappeared mysteriously. Since no one found her,
she was declared dead.
At the same time, all businesses were in turmoil in the wake of the economic crisis.
Under such circumstances, Phillip turned the tide by himself. The Moore Group was able to stand out,
which enhanced its business foundation.
Inside the Moore Group was a dramatic reshuffle. Phillip, who had been a nobody and an outcast, took
over the Group.

Ann just came out of the sample room. She had been there recently to prepare for her graduation
design.
Glass School of Perfume was an internationally renowned school for training perfumers. She chose it
not only because that she was interested in perfume, but also that it was William's wish.
When William was framed and imprisoned, the Scott family went bankrupt. Sansa and her daughter
thought that William must have left Ann a great deal of money. But in fact, nothing was left for her but
the secret recipe of the Scott family.
The Scott family made its fortune in perfume. This secret recipe was also coveted by many other
companies.
What a perfumer did every day was different from what the public thought. A perfumer had to study and
extract all kinds of fragrances. Instead of being fragrant all day long, a perfumer might smell gross with
strange smells on their clothes.
Because of the mixed smells, Ann chose to walk back to the apartment she rented.
On her way back, she answered a video call from Karl. A cute little girl with big grape-shaped eyes
popped up on the screen. Even though she was still a kid, one could tell that she would turn out a
beauty when she grew up. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Her small face was almost stuck to the screen, her long curled eyelashes hung with tears. She looked
at Ann while pursing her lips.
"Mommy, Daddy's such a bully. I don't like him."
Seeing Nikki's face on the screen, Ann was somewhat absent-minded. She reminded her of that little
boy, her hero in her childhood.
Shaking her head, she came back to herself and reminded herself.
'Ann Scott, what are you thinking? How could Nikki look like him? He had long since disappeared.
Even if you run into him again, you could only be strangers. '
She then smiled at Karl who was hugging Nikki.
"Karl, thank you for what you've done for us all these years."
Back then, the doctor told her that only the boy of the twins survived while the girl was stillborn.
But after all the bodyguards sent by Hilda had left with the boy, the old woman taking care of her told
her that the baby girl, Nikki, was alive, but weak.
Before going abroad, Ann wanted to take Nikki away with her, but she was afraid that Hilda would find
out, so she asked Karl who had grown up with her to help her.
Karl was the one that took care of them all these years.
Karl was holding Nikki in his arms. Hearing what Ann said, he was stunned for a moment and then
smiled.
"Ann, we've known each other for so many years. You don't have to say thank you."
Ann smiled, "I'll be right back. I want to eat the baguette at the corner of the street again before going
back."
"I went out to do paperwork today. I already bought some for you. And also the wine and cheese you
like."
Ann laughed gently. She looked at the sycamore tree on the roadside and thought to herself.
'So be it.' She was lucky enough to have such a sweet man who had been taking care of her all the
time. She should care about him more in the days to come.
River City Airport.
Hugging Nikki who was asleep in her arms, Ann looked at everything that was familiar and meanwhile
strange to her. She smiled bitterly, feeling extremely complicated.
Five years had passed, and she finally came back.
She and Karl both aimed to become an employee of the Moore Group.
