Chapter 388 Finding Out the Truth
Grace, however, caught on to the housekeeper’s words and casually asked, “You’ve been working for
the Landon family for many years, haven’t you? That also makes you a long-time member of the
household.”
The housekeeper nodded. “I’ve been with the Landon family since Ms. Jessica was very young It’s
been almost 20 years.”
Grace and Xander exchanged glances. She continued, “So you must have watched Jessica grow up!”
The housekeeper smiled and nodded as if reminiscing about the past.
“Ms. Jessica had always been obedient and attentive when she was young. She always listened
to Mr. and Mrs. Landon.
“She has also excelled in her studies since she was little. She was their pride and joy. Ms. Jessica

At this point, the housekeeper couldn’t help but sigh. “Mr. and Mrs. Landon unfortunately passed away.
They lost their lives in a car accident five years ago.
“As for Ms. Jessica, although she survived that accident, she spent nearly two years in the
hospital. Since then, she hasn’t been able to overcome her grief, and her entire personality has
changed.”
“You’re saying that Jessica spent two years in the hospital after the car accident? And you’ve been
taking care of her all this time?”
The housekeeper nodded reluctantly. “The accident had a significant impact on her. There was
no other choice.”
She paused, hesitant to speak further. Then, she changed the subject. “Did Ms. Jessica ask you to
fetch a drawing for her?”
Grace nodded. “Yes. We would appreciate it if you could help us retrieve one.”
The housekeeper nodded. “Of course, it’s just that she has many design drawings, and I’m not sure
which one you’re looking for. Let me go and get them for you.”.
Grace quickly stood up and offered, “I’ll help you!”
However, as she took a few steps, the housekeeper stopped her, saying, “It’s fine. Ms. Jessica gave
me strict orders that no one should enter her studio without her. Let’s not break her rules. I’ll go and get
them for you.”
Grace paused, and she smiled. “Thank you then!”
The three of them sat in the living room and waited:
Soon, the housekeeper came out carrying a stack of design drawings.
“These are all her design drawings. She’s highly skilled in design, and Mr. Landon used to say she
would become an outstanding fashion designer,

designs you’re looking for. If it’s not here, I can try to take another look.”
“Thank you very much!”
Grace placed the stack of design drawings on the table and examined them individually.
She had to admit that Jessica was indeed quite talented, on par with the best in the world.
As Grace flipped through the drawings, she noticed that most of them were dated from five years ago,
and the style of the designs was noticeably more subtle.
They seemed to align with the same style as the original, unaltered design in the file!
In an instant, Grace came to a realization. The car accident five years ago was the key.
She narrowed her eyes and asked, “Are these all drawings that Jessica made before? Do you have
any more recent design drawings?”
