That woman is Nicole, but she seems to have had swork done it doesn't look the sas before. When you knocked her to the ground, I spotted the distinctive black birthmark on her waist. We shared a dorm for four years in college; I couldn't possibly mistake someone else for her. Leonara must have stashed her away. Maybe we can get sof Leonora's secrets out of her." At that, lan immediately grabbed his phone and called Edwin. The phone barely rang once before Edwin answered. "Ian, is Clara awake?" "She's up, and all's good. Clara says the woman is Nicole, from my former secretarial team. Her family has always been under my influence. Maybe we can use that as leverage to get her to divulge something." "Alright, I'll give it a try." After hanging up, Edwin once again descended into the basement.
Nicole lay battered and bruised on the cold concrete floor, barely clinging to life.
Edwin approached, his gaze sharp and menacing. "I'm giving you one last chance. Why did you try to kill my sister? Who sent you?"

After three years at Hayes Corporation, she was all too familiar with lan's tactics.

Nicole reaffirmed, "Robert, Leonora calls him Ford. He has a mole on his ve ching
Hearing this description, Edwin clenched his fists tightly. He wash sure this was the Robert he knew, the Hayes family's former butler. But wasn't he supposed to have perished in that fire?
For years, the Hayes family had taken care of his family out of guilt. Could it be that the man who died wasn't Robert? Had he pulled off an escape, hiding in the shadows and doing Leonora's bidding? This realization sent a chill down Edwin's spine. The person they thought they knew best had been silently plotting against them all along. X
