Chapter 10. Hidden Malicious Intent (2)

"That man is a foreigner, honey. He is not your father's biological brother. Your father only took pity on him and adopted him as a younger brother and gave him the right to enjoy Anderson's wealth," Stefani began to tell.

"That man is so cunning and greedy. He did all kinds of ways to harm your father, honey. He's been nice to you all this time because he has evil intentions, he wants to control Anderson's property," she said again.

"Last year's car accident that took your father's life, it has a close relationship with him," Stefani is now crying.

"What do you mean, Mom? I don't understand," Violla said.

"Erik was involved in an accident that happened to you and your father, honey. The police have investigated the accident, and even though there is no evidence of other people's involvement, it does not mean that there was no one behind the tragedy," Stefani sat on the edge of the gurney while stroking the girl's hair.

"The accident case was closed without any results, and that makes me very dissatisfied. I did my investigation and found out that Erik was involved in the accident case. I can confidently say that he is the mastermind behind your father's death, honey," said Stefani at length.

A sigh escaped from between the middle-aged woman's lips.

"No one knows this but me, your brother, and you, honey. I'm really afraid that the information I get will spread to many people. Your father and his people trusted Erik more than anything, even that man is now the leader of the company replacing your father, representing you who is still very young, honey."

"If Erik finds out that I'm secretly investigating the accident, I'm afraid he'll harm me and Byanca. I don't have anything against him, honey," said Stefani, the woman now looks very sad with a facial expression that looks so resigned and frustrated.

"All this time, After your father died, Erik acted as if he owned the Anderson property, honey. He didn't even allow me to take care of company affairs, even though I was your father's legal wife."

"I'm self-aware, I'm your Father's second wife. But, I love the Anderson family," she said again.

"Did Uncle Erik treat you badly, Mom?" Violla asked.

Stefani let out a rough breath, the middle-aged woman lowered her head, her face haggard and her eyes glazed over, looking like someone who had suffered a lot.

"But now I don't have to worry anymore, honey. You are aware, I know you will protect me from that man. I believe that you will treat me very well beyond how Erik treated me. I am not afraid and worried anymore now."

"Violla, thanks for anything, honey," Stefani said again.

"You are my mother, I do not allow anyone to hurt you, Mother."

"Thank you, honey. Now, take a rest."

"Don't say anything to Erik about our conversation today, honey. I'm afraid if later He has evil intentions towards us, I say it for your good, honey," said Stefani.

"I will try to take care of you. I will do anything so that you are always in good condition, honey," the middle-aged woman smiled.

A few moments later, Byanca arrives with food for Violla.

After being in the hospital for a few minutes, Stefani and Byanca said goodbye to go home.

Stefani did it because the middle-aged woman was sure that soon Erik would come. She didn't want to meet that man as much as possible.

Even though he and Erik have never had any problems, the feeling of hatred towards this man is enormous.

Maybe because her husband trusted the man more than she did.

She should be the guardian of the heir, not Erik.

However, Stefani's feelings can only be kept to himself. She never showed her feelings of hatred towards the man.

Even though she knows very clearly that Erik is the biggest obstacle for her to reach her goal.

Violla is already conscious, luckily the girl has amnesia. So she can manipulate her memory for a while until her goal is achieved.

If she could kill her husband without getting caught, then she surely could do the same to Erik.

However, for now. Stefani wants to win Violla's heart first and make her hate Erik. That way, carrying out her plan would be a breeze.
