Sara faintly felt that this was the key point and hastily asked, "Do you know who the person who protected her is?""

Maria shook his head. "You should know your mother. It's useless to ask anyone if she doesn't want to say anything. I didn't ask anything. When I woke up, Caroline left alone. Later, I went back by myself, so I lost contact with her... In fact, I felt that you looked familiar when I first saw you. But after 18 years, I couldn't remember what Caroline looked like. It turned out that it was because you looked like her."

Sara pursed her lips and said, "... Thank you for telling me this."

Maria said, "I'm sorry. I don't know much, but I know that Caroline has a very good friend. She should know more."

A glimmer of hope immediately appeared in Sara's eyes. "Who is it?!"

Maria sighed. "You can't see this person normally because of her identity... It's hard to say. Anyway, she lives a secluded life and rarely appears in public. However, she will attend this year's medical ceremony. You can take the opportunity to ask her. She used to be a close friend of Caroline, so she will definitely tell you the truth."

Sara nodded.

Maria said, "That person is called Lita, the wife of the owner of Aurora Island."

Aurora Island was the legendary Island, and Nora was set to be same as before.

Maria replied, "I was still young then, after all. Your mother didn't have time to play with me. Lita is a daughter of an aristocratic family. She's a friend of Jim. I'm sure she knows more than I do."

Sara was stunned.

Aurora Island... Isn't that Lionel's hometown? What the island owner's wife said... was Lionel's mother!

It had never occurred to her that she had such a close relationship with Lionel. No wonder she felt intimate with him as soon as she saw him. It turned out that there was a connection between parents in the same generation.

"It's getting late. My dad is still waiting for me at home. I'll go back first. Call me if you need anything." Maria stood up and said.

Sara nodded. "Okay, thank you for today."

"No, I haven't thanked you for saving Maxwell." Maria smiled and waved his hand, "Waiter, pay the bill."

"I have already bought it." The waiter looked at Sara and said, "This lady bought it."

Maria said with some blame, "I've promised you that I'd treat you to coffee."

Sara laughed. "You're an elder. Of course, I should be the one to invite you."

Maria touched her head and said, "You are fine

Sara didn't understand what She meant, but after she said this, she took and left.

Sara took a sip of the black sugar card in her cup and sent a message to Dominik asking him to pick her up.

Twenty minutes later, Dominik's car arrived.

When Sara opened the car door, she saw Hank sitting inside, reading a document. When She saw her, he lifted his chin and said, "Come in."

Sara was a little stiff, but she still went in and sat down next to Hank.

Hank asked, "Did you have fun with your friends today?"

Sara nodded and said honestly, "Quite happy."

Hank glanced at her. "I heard Dominik saying that you were bullied at the shop?"

Sara thought to herself, why would the adjutant tell Hank everything? Embarrassed, she said, "It wasn't me. It was Zayn. Even the adjutant's cousin... In fact, it wasn't a big deal. The main reason was that Zayn wanted to anger that person."

Hank touched her soft hair and said, "I can give 60 percent of the shares in that shop to you. You can take whatever you want in the future."

Sara said, "... No need. I didn't buy anything today."

Hank seemed to have thought of something. "Sorry, I've long since finished handling it. I've always forgotten to give it to you." He took out a card with black patterns from his wallet card and handed it to Sara. "Your pocket money."

Sara didn't really want it, especially since her relationship with Hank was about to come to an end. If she took his money at this time, it would be as easy as taking a breakup fee. When she thought of this, Sara's heart felt very uncomfortable and she stammered, "... No, no, no."

Hank frowned slightly and held the back of Sara's head to let her look at him. "What are you doing here? Keep what I gave you. Be good, I don't have much money."

Dominik, who was sitting in the driver's seat, was speechless. "Didn't you say that your vice card was 'not much money'?!"

Sara bit her lower lip and reached for the card. "How much is there in there?"

The old man said casually, "Not much, just a hundred thousand or so."

Dominik thought, "Maybe I'll have to add a few more zeros."

Sara thought that 100,000 was indeed not a lot. When they broke up in the future, it would be enough to return Hank. There was no need to anger this childish old man, so she put the card away. Hank gave her a rewarding kiss on her cheek and said, "You are so obedient."

Sara long eyelashes trembled a little, and she suddenly felt sour in her heart. All of a sudden, she was full of emotions, and her eyes turned red in an instant.

Hank sensed that something was amiss and quickly hugged her. "What's wrong, darling?"

He didn't teach her a lesson because she was so drunk when she ran out last night!

It was okay that no one cared, but once someone did, Sara immediately burst into tears. Dominik couldn't help but look back, wondering what had happened to the little girl Hank.

After holding back her emotions for a long time, Sara was drowned out like a flood. She hugged Hank's neck and cried, "Uncle... you... you don't want me anymore?"

Hank's expression changed slightly.

"When did I say I don't want you?"

Then he thought of something and asked, "Did someone talk nonsense to you?"

Perhaps it was because Hank had coaxed her in such a gentle manner that Sara finally asked the question, "... they all said that you liked Zara. You wanted to marry Zara, and you even went to pick her up to buy her orange juice..."

After a moment of silence, Hank held his baby in his arms and suddenly smiled. "It turns out that our Sara is jealous."

Sara: "..."

She sniffed. "No, I didn't."

Hank pinched her chin and looked at her with a faint smile. "Since you didn't, why are you crying so fiercely
