Chapter 2056

The lighting in the house was dim, but Bonnie could make out that there were plenty of pictures hanging
on the wall.

All of the photos had Lucy in them.

There were images of her with a younger Sean and some of her and a girl with pigtails.

Bonnie recognized the girl as Sean’s sister, Nikki.

Sean’s childhood to his pubescent years.

The last picture was one of Lucy, Sean, and Nikki. In the photo, Sean looked about 14 or 15 years old,
whereas Nikki looked about 10.

Bonnie felt her blood run cold.

How could this be?

Did Lucy not die more than 20 years ago? Why did she appear in the photos with Sean, who, in the most
recent one, appeared to be in his teenage years?

Sean was only 20 years old at present, which meant that..

Lucy had still been alive at least six years ago!

Could it be that this was not Lucy at all, and instead, someone who looked identical to her?

As soon as she thought of this, Bonnie bit her lip and turned to glance at Sean.

At this moment, Sean’s head was bowed as he poured her and Theo two cups of tea.



Nikki, who had been watching Bonnie stare at the photos, furrowed her brows and slowly walked over to
Bonnie’s side. Then, she lifted her head to look at the pictures as well. “This is Ms. Hamilton.”

Bonnie’s entire body was frozen in shock.

She turned slowly around to stare at Nikki and asked, “You said…her last name is Hamilton?”

“Yes.” Nikki nodded. “Ms. Hamilton is Sean’s birth mother, but she passed away five years ago due to a
disease, and these are the only photos we have of her.”

Then, she turned to shoot Bonnie a somewhat warning glance. “However, I’m not her daughter; she
adopted me.

“Fifteen years ago, Mr. Wheeler passed away when Ms. Hamilton was pregnant, and she was so
devastated that she miscarried.

“However, she insisted that the baby she had been carrying was a girl, so she adopted me from the
orphanage, and that’s how I came to live with Ms. Hamilton and Sean.”

As she said this, she turned around to stare at Bonnie. “Therefore, Ms. Craig, I hope you understand that
even though Sean and I claim to be siblings, we aren’t related at all.”

Sean furrowed his brows when he heard this. He handed Bonnie and Theo each a cup of tea as he
glanced at Nikki. “Why are you telling this to our guests?”

Sean did not understand Nikki’s intentions at all, but Bonnie did.

She knew fully well why Nikki had deliberately emphasized that she and Sean were not real siblings.

She took a sip from her cup and lifted her head to glance at Nikki. “Do you know why I didn’t defend
myself against the bad guys and instead had to rely on your brother to help me?



“That’s because I’m pregnant with my ex-boyfriend’s child, but I intend on giving birth to this baby.”

Nikki immediately froze when she heard this.

She glanced at Bonnie dazedly and did not know how to answer that.

Nikki had to admit that she had been afraid when she first saw Sean bringing Bonnie into their home.

She could not bear to lose him, nor could she allow him to fall in love with another woman.

Otherwise…

She would lose the last and only person she cared about.

She had said all that to put Bonnie in her place, but to her surprise, Bonnie had seen through her almost
immediately.
