Chapter 235: Give them nature interference
Kimberly’s soul was lost by now, she robotically did as told while her mind was lost in those words he said. ’I’m a Lu?!’
"Apparently, your mother worked at the Lu mansion some time ago. An accident happened between her and my father, so, you happened." He glanced at her widened eyes before he continued to work on his laptop, leaving her to slowly digest the revelation.
When he researched the necklace, he found out it was a necklace given to Kimberly’s grandmother by the matriarch of the Lu family for her hard work. Only hardworking servants get gifts from the Matriarch of the Lu family and it symbolizes respect, admiration, and also motivates other servants to work harder. Those servants given gifts would also get better privileges. Also, the gifts are like heirlooms for the servants’ descendants and it also means an automatic good life for the servants when they retire as servants.
Kimberly’s mother inherited the necklace after her mother died and became the youngest head of servants in the Lu estate.
When Madam Caroline got married to Lu Hao, Maverick’s father, Matriarch Lu handed Kimberly’s mother to Madam Caroline, thinking her first son’s home would be the best place for Kimberly’s mother to learn her duties and also become the Young Caroline’s confidant in the huge mansion.
However, things didn’t go as the old Matriarch planned. To get a divorce from her husband after just giving birth to Rex and get half of his properties, Madam Caroline needed a solid reason to not be blamed for her actions but her husband loved her too much and wouldn’t do anything wrong no matter how wicked she was to him and their children, so when she saw Kimberly’s mother delegating tasks to servants one morning, a wicked idea came to her and she drugged her husband and Kimberly’s mother, then made her husband sleep with Kimberly’s mother and accused her husband of cheating. With that, a divorce happened.
Kimberly’s mother volunteered to leave because the air around the house no longer favored her. The Matriarch was very disappointed in her and took away the privileges she had, but left the heirloom for her, as it was earned by her mother.
The servants were happy and mad. Happy that she was no longer better than them, but were also mad at her for her luck to successfully crawl into the master’s bed, meaning, the master might decide to favor her after he’s done with his wife’s divorce matters.
Kimberly’s mother suspected that one of the servants might kill her out of jealousy one day as they always looked at her with envy and unconcealed hatred.
