Chapter 277
The next day, the Nicholas family went to see Yana together.
Yana looked at Eason and showed a timid expression. “You… you are my brother?”
She had a pale complexion and a pitiful look, which made her very worthy of pity.
But Eason felt something strange.
Just hearing the words “brother,” he felt goosebumps all over his body.
But Eason didn’t show it and just smiled in response.
This was basically his sister.
He thought he felt uncomfortable, probably because they had been separated since they were young.
When they spent more time together, they would naturally become familiar with each other.
Penny glanced at Yana, and her expression became somewhat strange.
She thought, “If I’m not mistaken, this Yana is probably an imposter.
Should I expose Yana?”
Penny silently contemplated.
“Who is this lady?” Yana timidly looked at Penny.
Judith quickly introduced, “This is Penny, the child I adopted. She is just like a biological daughter to me.”
Yana immediately showed a disdainful expression.
She thought, “How could an adopted child be the same as a biological child?
It seems that after going to the Nicholas family, I only need to please Eason. As for Penny, I can use some tricks to make her feel unwelcome.”

Yana’s plan was well thought out, but she didn’t know that Alexander had already noticed her change of expression.
Alexander squinted his eyes but didn’t say much for the time being.
Feeling underestimated by Yana, Penny showed a gentle smile and said openly, “Yana, it was because you went missing that Mom and Dad adopted me. Now that you’re back, naturally, you are the most important.”
Yana felt that Penny made a valid point but humbly said, “How could that be? Thank you for taking care of Mom and Dad on my behalf all these years.”
She emphasized the “on my behalf” part.
The Nicholas family all felt uncomfortable.
But Penny smiled even more gently.
She was very happy.
It was her true feelings.
She thought this Yana was not only an imposter but also a very foolish one.
Compared to the real princess named Susan, whom she had never met, this imposter was clearly much easier to control.
Penny believed this foolish imposter thought she was disguising herself well, but in reality, all her little schemes were seen through by the Nicholas family,
With the Nicholas family’s character, even if they believed she was the real princess, they wouldn’t wholeheartedly trust her.
Penny’s position would be even more stable..
The hospital visit quickly came to an end.
Eason went with high hopes but came back disappointed.
“Mom, Dad, I feel like there’s something strange about Yana.” Eason couldn’t help but say.

Judith sighed, “Yana grew up on her own, and her foster parents weren’t very reliable. It’s normal for her personality to be a bit off. But she is our family after all. If her character is not right, we can slowly correct it.”
Eason listened and silently nodded.
Judith sighed again.
Alexander patted Judith’s shoulder, and his thoughts became clearer.
He wasn’t giving up.
He didn’t believe that his daughter would turn out like this.
Alexander didn’t tell anyone but secretly investigated the Miller family’s affairs.
Carl and Jane have never concealed their favoritism for Yana over the years.
A lot of information was quickly placed on Alexander’s desk.
Even events from a decade or several decades ago were dug up by Alexander.
A neighbor of Carl from over a decade ago said Carl and Jane would regularly take Yana out for trips. One time, the lights in the Miller’s house were off for a week, and he thought that everyone in the Miller family had gone out to play. He didn’t pay much attention. However, when Carl and Jane came back with Yana, it was actually Susan who opened the door. At that time, Susan was only eight years old. The neighbor found out in private that Susan had been left alone at home for the past ten days. Moreover, Jane didn’t allow Susan to use any electrical appliances, using the excuse of wasting money. When she came back, she would check the electricity meter. Susan, a young child, was left alone in this dark room for a week.
Alexander looked at this information and didn’t move for a long time.
He thought, “that day at the hospital, Carl and Yana kept accusing Susan of resenting them.
“If that were true, what’s wrong with Susan resenting them?
“Moreover, in this world, would anyone take an adopted child out to play and leave their own child at home?”
Alexander’s doubts grew stronger.

He calmed his emotions and continued reading.
As he read further, his emotions became more complicated.
Piece by piece, Alexander’s mind seemed to have formed a complete picture of Susan.
Because Susan was born healthy, while Yana was born weak, from the age of seven, Susan had been giving
blood transfusions to Yana
a year after year.
Even though Susan was so obedient, Carl and Jane never showed her any kindness.
When the Miller family was not well–off, the three of them lived in a small room. The room had poor sound insulation, and nearby neighbors could hear the sound of Susan being cursed by the two. At that time, Susan was probably only two or three years old, but she was already crying without tears from being cursed.
Whenever the Miller family had any outings, Susan was always left at home and never taken out once.
Later, when Carl made money from his business and the living conditions of the Miller family improved, they
moved to a bigger house, but Susan’s situation seemed to have not changed at all.
Alexander found the former maid of the Miller family.
+5:
According to the maid’s description, Yana and Susan, one was spoiled and given whatever she wanted, becoming the little princess of the family. The other one, except for the brief greetings during blood transfusions,
lived as if she were invisible.
Alexander also found out the truth about Yana giving up her marriage with Ben, and letting Ben marry Susan.
His emotions suddenly became more complicated.
It was Yana who wanted to show off but then refused to get married with Ben.
At that time, Ben had an ugly appearance and was even rumored to be fated to mourn his wife’s death. For a family who loved their daughter, he was definitely not a good choice..
But the Miller family was unwilling to let Yana marry him, yet willing to let Susan do.
Alexander’s investigation of these materials proceeded smoothly and unusually.

He recalled the meaningful expression on Ben’s face in the end.
These things should have already been investigated by Ben, and Alexander even had a premonition that these results were probably obtained through guidance from Ben’s people.
He thought Ben probably just couldn’t bear to let Susan be misunderstood.
Alexander flipped through the information repeatedly, but he couldn’t sleep.
The actions of the Miller family were too strange.
If these actions were to be rationalized, there was only one reason.
Perhaps, Yana was the biological daughter of the Miller family.
Susan was the adopted child.
Susan might even not have been adopted.
Susan might be actually stolen by the Miller family.
Just as he thought about this, Alexander’s head began to throb.
Before, he didn’t feel too heartbroken when he thought Yana was his daughter.
After all, Yana seemed to have been raised in a pampered manner.
He could at least comfort himself and say that she had been living well all these year
years.
But if it was Susan, just thinking about the kind of life she had experienced, Alexander couldn’t bear it.
Now, he suddenly wanted to see Susan.
But he was also a bit frightened.
First, Carl had just borrowed his power to force Susan to give a lot of blood. Susan’s impression of them must not be too good.
Second, it was just speculation. What if his speculation was wrong? What if the Miller family was just abnormal,

and if Yana was really his daughter? Then, the Nicholas family owed this girl.
Alexander’s heart was heavy, and he couldn’t stop thinking.
He thought he couldn’t say his speculation to anyone.
But he must find a way to investigate this matter in depth.
