Nora stared hard at Old Maddy to look at his reaction after she voiced the question.She would
never trust a person’s words that easily, so she wanted to determine whether he was telling the
truth through his reaction.
What she didn’t expect, though, was that because of the burns on Old Maddy’s face, he couldn’t
make any facial expressions.
Even his eyes were too small for her to see anything.This made him hard to read.Old Maddy kept
quiet for a while.
Suddenly, he asked, “Twins? Triplets? What are you talking about? Didn’t you only give birth to a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdaughter?”
In Old Maddy’s impression, the daughter of the lady he served had returned and gave birth to a
daughter.
How could it have been twins or triplets instead? Seeing how logical his answer was, Nora frowned.
“Uncle…”
“I’m not worthy of having you call me that.”
Old Maddy interrupted her and said, “My name is Jake Reed.I am your mother’s subordinate, and
you are the young lady whom I now serve.”
Seeing that he had brought up her mother again, Nora asked, “What on earth happened back
then?”
Old Maddy heaved a sigh.
Old Maddy went on.
“But later, she was still discovered by the mysterious organization.Because I had never made an
appearance in front of others, she told me to leave and hide somewhere.Then, once you turned
twenty, I was supposed to tell you that you must have a baby!” He continued.
“I had no friends or relatives and had been working for your mother the whole time.I didn’t know
what I should do during all those years, either.Moreover, I knew that your mother was in danger, so I
had only one thought in my mind, and that was to look for your father! The Smiths were strong and

New York, I encountered people from the mysterious organization.They injured me.”
Old Maddy seemed to be recalling the events from back then.He said, “After that, my mind was in a
state of confusion.All I knew was that I had to go to New York to look for your father…but I forgot
why I had to do that.I also kept your mother’s order strictly in mind, that was, to tell you that you
must have a baby before you turn twenty!”
Nora had been stunned the moment Old Maddy mentioned that she had to have a baby.
Upon hearing him bringing it up again, even though she knew that she shouldn’t be interrupting him
at this time, judging from his demeanor, he should have already finished the story.
There was nothing after that.
Thus, she finally couldn’t stop herself from asking, “Why did I have to have a baby?”
