Chapter 78 Overdue Posthumous Note
“Back then, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson committed suicide and you got married. The house was empty. Many
people had their eyes on the villa. They took things from it and wreaked havoc. Some even took a step
further and tried to take the tiles away!
“I tried my best to guard this place for you and suffered a lot of retaliation. New injuries are added on
top of the old ones. Later, a few ruthless gangers almost beat me to death, dragged me to the mass
grave, and buried me.”
May’s story shocked Shirley, who clenched her fists. “May, you’ve suffered a lot. Don’t worry, I won’t let
them get away with it!”
“Ms. Wilson, don’t be mad. I’m fine. As long as I can see you, everything is worth it!”
The vibe was so good. May and Shirley hugged each other, crying and venting all the grievances that
they had suffered for the past four years.
“Then what happened afterward? How did you escape?”
Shirley wiped her tears and asked curiously.
“I was lucky. A kind man dug me from the pit full of corpses and cured my injuries.”
When May was recalling the past, there was a trace of fear and gratitude in her gaze.
“The person who saved me is mysterious. He said that he was entrusted by a big shot and asked me to
disappear from Seatle City.”
“A mysterious big shot?”
Shirley frowned and thought hard about who the man was.
After all, the Wilson family was the target of public criticism. Everyone in the world wanted to get rid of
it. Who would help at this critical juncture?
“I don’t know either. I want to find him and repay his kindness!”
May added, “Do you think it was Mr. Stewart? Only his family dared to help us back then. You were
his wife. He knew that we were close and couldn’t bear to see you sad. So he saved me ”
“Nonsense!”
Shirley denied. “He had no feelings for me at all. After the wedding, he went abroad, ignoring me
even when I got a cold and fell into a coma for half a month after spending days looking for you He
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdidn’t care about the How could he save you?”
Shirley used to love Braden ardently, making her blind to the fact that his indifference was
unacceptable
But now that she recalled it, Shirley realized that her trust was misplaced!
May looks at Shirley, feeling heartache. “I didn’t know you lived such a life in the Stewart family. Mr.
Stewart is so cruel to you. Marriage without love is just like chronic suicide. No wonder you divorced.
You should have done that long ago!”
May was worried upon hearing the news of Shirley and Braden getting a divorce. Now she felt happy
for Shirley!
“You’re right. Getting a divorce is the right decision. I have to thank that jerk and bitch for waking me up
to reality and giving me a new life!”
Shirley didn’t want to talk about Braden at all. She asked May, “How about you? What life have you led
all these years? Why didn’t you call me?”
“After I was saved, I moved to another place at the request of my benefactor. Because I didn’t want to
implicate you, I didn’t call you. But as I was worried about the family, I secretly came back, hid in the
basement all the time, and pretended to be a ghost to scare those with evil intentions.”
“Well, the trick worked well. After a few years, no one dared to approach Wilson’s house. Even the
neighbors were so scared that they moved away!”
With that, May knelt. “Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Wilson, did you see it? I did it. I protected the family until Shirley
came back!”
May’s loyalty moved Shirley to tears. “May, thank you. If not for you, the Wilson family would have long
gone!”
“No, I’m to blame. I didn’t dissuade Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Wilson from committing suicide.”
May was blaming herself, revealing a regretful look.
She saw it when they jumped off the building. The scene was too tragic and brutal.
Suddenly thinking of something, May looked at Shirley. “Oh, your parents left a note. They asked me to
give it to you!”
Then May took out the note that she had kept for four years from an old box in the basement.
“Ms. Wilson, Madam gave the note to me before her death. But it is very strange. Madam said that if
you are happy in marriage, I should not let you see it. If you divorce, then you’re allowed to read the
note ”
May gave the note to Shirley with a sad expression.
The painful, desperate expression that Iris had before her death was still vivid in May’s memory.
The only one that Iris could not let go of was Shirley Her sole wish was that Shitley and Braden could
live happily
But who would have thought that the marriage only lasted for four years before it fell apart?
Shirley lowered her head and saw “For Shirley” on the envelope.
This was her mom’s handwriting. No one could fake it.
Tears swirled in her eyes and blurred her vision.
Four years ago, when Shirley’s parents jumped off the building, Shirley was studying the speed of the
electromagnetic waves in major stars in her lab.
As a science genius, she had an obsession with data. To get the experiment results, she had been in
the lab for more than a month. Naturally, she had lost connections with the outside world.
Her family had always supported her in pursuing a career in research. They never called her when
she was doing the experiments.
But Shirley didn’t expect that when she finally succeeded in the experiments and wanted to share the
joy with her parents, she got the news that the Wilson family went bankrupt and her parents
committed suicide!
Shirley was filled with hatred. She hated those who landed the Wilson family in trouble and even her
parents who did not leave a word to her.
She wanted to take revenge. But before she could find out who the enemies were, her grandfather
strongly opposed it and asked her to marry Braden,
It had been four years, during which she was so miserable because her parents left her without saying
anything. Shirley refused to go mourn her parents and pay any attention to the Wilson
family.
“It turns out that mom and dad did leave me a message. It was I who was too stupid and stubborn. I
didn’t understand their good intentions!”
As Shirley cried, she opened the note.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe note was rather short with a few dozen words. But each word was like a sword stabbing into
Shirley’s heart.
甲申
Shirley, please forgive us for leaving without saying goodbye When you see the note, you and
Braden are already divorced. You must be sad and helpless, right Promise us that no matter what you
find out about the Stewart family, don’t blame them. We have too much to say to you But our biggest
wish is for you to be happy Do not avenge us. We don’t want you to be an overachiever We just want
you to be healthy and happy We will still be a family in the next life
Tears fell from Shirley’s eyes and dripped onto the note The handwriting became vague, so she
quickly wiped them clean with her sleeves.
These were the last words from her parents.
“Dad, mom, you are so cruel!”
Shirley was sobbing to the point that she couldn’t breathe properly.
From the time when her family was ruined to when she got the bad news, Shirley seemed to be very
calm without shedding a single tear.
Outsiders said that she was indifferent and ungrateful. In fact, she was in so much pain that she
couldn’t cry.
Now that she was finally able to cry, Shirley felt much more relaxed.
“Ms. Wilson, just cry out…”
May patted Shirley’s back and comforted her gently.
Shirley was strong enough. She had gone through a lot.
After crying for a while, Shirley cheered up again. “May, I am back. Don’t stay in the underground room.
Move to the bedroom. We count on each other!”
“Okay. I will still be your servant!”
A smile crept onto May’s skinny cheeks.
She asked curiously, “Ms. Wilson, what did they say to you?”
“They want me to live a happy and ordinary life. Ask me not to blame the Stewart family and not to
seek revenge.”
Shirley answered honestly. Her expression turned blank.
“It’s so strange. It seems that there is no secret in the note. Why did Mrs. Wilson want you to read it
after your divorce? Was the Stewart family behind the bankruptcy?”
