NovelEnglishChapter 929 Childhood Belongings "You have a parcel, Mrs. Rainsworth," the security guard said.
Cecilia rose to her feet and walked over to the door. There lay a paper box, over a meter in length.
"Alright, thank you." She was somewhat curious, wondering what Paula might have sent her.
Upon hearing about the arrival of a parcel, Elliot also emerged from his room, joining his mother in opening the package.
When they opened the parcel, both mother and son were taken aback.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInside the box were toys and items typically used by girls, all of which had clearly seen better days. Cecilia instantly recognized these things as items from her childhood.
Previously, Magnus and Paula had auctioned off the Smith residence and mortgaged it to the court. Later on, it was bought by Stella. Then, Nathaniel subsequently repurchased the rights to the house and gave it back to Cecilia.
However, Cecilia never saw anything from her childhood after moving back in.
"Why did she have these things?" She didn't think Paula would have kept all her childhood belongings.
Surprise filled Elliot's large eyes. "Mommy, did you use all these when you were little?" He was certain after spotting a diary with Cecilia's non it.
The woman nodded. "Yes, Mommy used all of these when she was in school." She, too, picked up the yellowed diary and opened the first page. This was from the tshe had just returned to the Rainsworth Manor in Tudela.
It wrote: August 22nd, sunny. I finally met Mommy and Daddy. I have a mommy and daddy too. I'm so happy, so very happy.
Beneath the diary entry was a large smiley face.
Cecilia flipped to the next page.
August 23rd, light rain. Why do I get the feeling that Mommy doesn't like me? It must be my fault. Martha said as long as I behave, both Daddy and Mommy will like me. It must have been because I didn't behave.
August 24th, rain. Today, Mommy hit me. I don't understand It was clearly Magnus' fault. He was the one who played with Mommy's makeup. Why doesn't she believe me? September 1st, sunny. Today's the first day of school. I'm going to study hard and make Mommy and Daddy proud.
December 30th, gloomy. I placed first in the exams, but why Mommy still not happy? Why did she say I'm not worthy The more Cécilia flipped through the pages, the more discomfort grew, and she swiftly closed the diary.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe didn't understand. After everything that had happened, why on earth did Paula send all these things back to her? Was it to mock her? What other reason could there be? As Elliot went through Cecilia's belongings, she made her way to her room upstairs. After closing the door, she dialed Paula's number.
Seeing a call cfrom Cecilia, the older woman immediately picked it up.
"Ceci." "Why?" Cecilia clenched her fists. "Why did you send those things back to me, and where did you get them?" Upon being questioned, Paula could only explain the origin of the items.
"Your father had stored all those items in a safety deposit boxd m figured you'd definitely like them, so I ΕΠ went ahead and took them out." Only then did it start to make sense for Cecilia. Indeed, how could Paula possibly have stored those items? As expected, it was her father who had kept them.
"Did you send them over just because you thought I'd like it? Were there ho other intentions?" Cecilia asked En again. Paula was well aware of all the times she had wronged Cecilia.
It was also understandable that this woman didn't trust her.
"I have no other motives. I just wanted to return your belongings. Don't overthink it. To me, those ET things are nothing but a pile of junk.” X
