Chapter 117 

She chuckled, “Madam, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. So, I want to help you, be it in the company or your home, I’m willing to serve you wholeheartedly” 

Perhaps it was her story that softened me or sparked my curiosity, I asked, “Why help me?” 

“Simply because you chose to keep me around. The day I arrived here, your smile lit up my inner darkness. Regardless of your intentions, your smile made my day” 

Clara’s words were filled with a pitiful charm, like a lone flower braving a storm. “If only my sister could be like you. My world would be filled with sunlight I just want a simple life, away from my dysfunctional family, but even that seems impossible! 

“Also, at the office. After your last visit, that jerk, Jesper, came to me asking if I knew the rules. He threatened me, told me to keep my mouth shut and not to snoop around. That’s when I realized something fishy was going on. His threats only piqued my curiosity, so I picked up on some office gossip!! figured it might be helpful to you!” 

Honestly, I was torn. But I believed Clara. 

“Do you want to continue staying here?” I asked her. 

She slowly shook her head, gave me a cryptic smile. That smile was loaded with meaning, and I sensed something was coming 

Sure enough, she said with a guilty expression. “I don’t need to stay here. Mr. Jaylan has already arranged for me and my sister. Of course, Zora doesn’t want me to go with her, but I have something on her, so she can’t get rid of me! Knowing her, she is the vindictive type. She wouldn’t let it go if you kick her out I’ll be by her side, and at the very least. I can keep you informed of her moves.” Clara’s words were sincere 

I gave a faint smile, just as I suspected. Jaylan’s hasty exit was indeed to clean up their mess. This means there’s something more between Jaylan and Zora, not just a simple conspiracy against me 

I was delighted to have such an insider So, I softly thanked her, “Thank you! And be careful!” 

Clara replied calmly. I’ve lost the luxury of safety since I was 15. Don’t worry, Madam! I owe you, and I’m happy to help!” 

Our eyes met, both understanding each other’s thoughts. Then, she took out her phone and extended it towards me, “Add me! It will definitely be useful 

I took out my phone and added her on WhatsApp. Seeing her profile picture, I couldn’t help but give her a second look. Her profile picture was a blooming dandelion, a fitting symbol for Clara. 

After finishing the conversation, she didn’t linger and left in a hurry. Watching her retreating figure, I felt a pang of sadness. My hand gripping the phone relaxed after a while. 

My housekeeper came over, whispering that she had tidied up the kitchen. I instructed her to store Jaylan’s utensils separately, but without arousing 

Suspicion 

My new housekeeper’s name is Helga, in her forties, very neat and efficient. From the way she organized the kitchenware, it was clear she was a professional 

After delegating a few household chores, I left to pick up the kids. 

Without Zora, managing two kids by myself was indeed challenging. Carl was particularly fussy, continuously searching for ‘mommy, and was not familiar with Helga. 

Fortunately, Probert was very sensible. After finishing his homework, he came downstairs to help me coax his little brother. 

Just as I was juggling everything, someone else showed up to stir the pot.
