Chapter 1377 Lisbeth Camdon
“Don’t worry. You’re now the Silverstein Family’s second daughter. Nobody will doubt you. Do you remember that they looked at the report of your DNA test with their very own eyes?” Someone on the other end of the line had a soft, female voice.
“What if they request a retest? Then, what am I going to do?” Bonnie’s hands trembled as she clutched the phone in her fearful grip.
“No, they won’t because they’ve been looking for you for years, and I know they’ll shower you with double the amount of affection to make up for the lost time. So, from now on, avoid overcrowded banquets. All that is required of you is to continue acting as though you are the second daughter in the Silverstein Family to eventually obtain half of their assets. You’ll feel like a winner when you finally achieve your goals.”
“Do you think I can get five billion?”
“Even if you don’t have five billion, three billion is enough to make a fortune. This is a corporation owned by the Silverstein Family that has been around for a century, and while I am unsure of their precise value in today’s market, the Silverstein Family has promised that they will leave you half of any inheritance. Just be patient and wait for the right moment!”
“Are you positive that the Silverstein Family’s second daughter is no longer alive? What if that girl eventually returns home and reveals her true identity? I will be charged with a crime if my identity is revealed.”
“Don’t worry. The Silverstein Family’s second daughter was only three years old when she went missing. How could a three-year-old child remember who they were? It’s likely that she’s still living in an orphanage. Furthermore, she is now a common person excluded from high-society circles. No matter how hard she tries, she will never know who she really is.” The woman on the other end of the line calmly reassured Bonnie. “However, you must assure me that you will share the inheritance equally with me once you receive it. Remember that I invested a lot of time and resources to help you.”
“Sure, I know what you’re talking about, and I get it. Your generosity to me is something I will never forget. You are like a second parent because you provided me with everything I have right now.” Bonnie addressed the person on the other end of the line respectfully.
“Okay. Get a firm grasp on who you are as the Silversteins’ second daughter. Don’t try to pull any fast ones, and don’t forget who you were before this! How can you possibly compare your life as the second daughter of the Silversteins to someone responsible for entertaining guests? Stop behaving like that if you don’t want to return to that terrible life.” The other woman sounded resentful, suggesting that she was aware of Bonnie’s recent behavior.
“I-I didn’t do anything!”
“You didn’t do anything? Didn’t you chase that maid, Courtney, out of the house? You accused her of stealing. What did that maid do to offend you?”
“I only wanted to earn my parents’ approval, that’s all!”
“You have already been showered with more love and affection than Queenie. Just be grateful for what you have! Don’t make things difficult for me and do your best to be Bonnie Silverstein.”
“I got it, Aunt Lisbeth.” Bonnie addressed the woman by her name.
“Don’t forget to transfer me the living expenses for this month.”
“Alright,” Bonnie replied in a hurry.
Lisbeth Camdon was a childhood friend of Brandon’s wife, Maggie Elmhurst. In the past, Lisbeth’s life was picture perfect; she married into a wealthy family, and her husband was successful. However, after his death, her son was arrested for gambling debts, and her life went downhill rapidly. She had fallen from her former status as a wealthy wife and was now running a restaurant as her sole source of income.
She relied on Bonnie’s monthly transfer of fifty thousand to cover her living expenses. It was impossible to tell the good and bad of the people one might meet. Unfortunately for Maggie, she made friends with an ambitious and cold, calculative person.
Lisbeth was familiar with the Elmhurst Family and their lives from a young age. When she went to a nightclub to pay off her son’s debts, she met a girl dancing on stage and was completely blown away by that girl’s performance. She never expected to run into someone who looked so eerily similar to someone whom she already knew. There was a striking resemblance between the girl on stage and Queenie Silverstein, the eldest daughter of the Silverstein Family, by at least 70 percent, and the two even shared a similar voice.
Lisbeth was so fed up with her life’s shambles that she suddenly had a bold idea. She wanted the girl to pretend to be the Silverstein Family’s missing twin daughter. After conversing with that girl, Lisbeth sent her to Hogland, which was well-known for its plastic surgery, and had that girl’s face reconstructed to look like Queenie’s.
Following her recovery from the operation, the girl resembled Queenie by ninety percent.
