Chapter 211 Please, Save Him
When Maya opened the door, Karen burst in as if she had lost her mind.
Upon entering, she exclaimed, "Mr. Blake, someone is trying to take our house. What do we do?"
Amelia and Chloe were perplexed, as Karen should have been referring to the house Donovan had given them. Gordon, upon seeing Karen, felt a surge of emotions stirring within him.
His lips trembled as he recognized her as Sarah's daughter. He remembered her from the tragic incident involving Sarah killing her husband and Karen arriving to take her away.
Even though they had only met once, Gordon could never forget the gruesome scene: Brian covered in blood, body parts scattered around, and Sarah wielding a knife.
The neighborhood had just opened, flooded with advertisements from the BlueOcean Estate Group, and Gordon had used the money to invest in land and start his business.
However, Sarah's actions had not only taken her husband's life but also destroyed Gordon's future, leaving him haunted by the horrific memories.
Following the gruesome murder, the prestigious BlueOcean Estate Group saw its property values plunge, transforming once sought-after homes into ghostly abodes. Customers swiftly demanded refunds from Gordon, plunging him into a nightmarish spiral of guilt and regret.
Haunted by the past, he trembled on the sofa as Donovan confronted him, stating, "Your property has been seized. Why are you turning to me?" Karen, desperate for help, pleaded with Donovan to assist in resolving the situation.
However, Donovan, appearing aloof, brushed off Karen's plea and demanded more information. Overwhelmed, Karen knelt before Donovan, tearfully revealing how her brother Jacob had squandered their savings gambling at Elysium Haven, resulting in the loss of their home.”
Amelia covered her chest upon hearing this.
She had been feeling quite unwell recently, sensing that something was about to happen.
"So! He's truly no good," Donovan commented with indifference, "He's disregarding your pregnancy."
"Mr. Blake, please, help Jacob." Karen broke down in tears.
She had believed that with Jacob owning this house and an extra 150 grand, they could have a promising future, but...
"Mom, Mom, please beg Mr. Blake." Karen didn't expect Amelia to be here today and turn to her help.
Hearing Karen call Amelia "mom," Gordon's eyes turn red.
'They still said she wasn't Sarah!'
'Karen was Sarah's daughter.'
Gordon's mental state was already unhealthy and abnormal. His eye sockets were crimson.
"Please, Mr. Blake, please save Jacob." Amelia pleaded.
Chloe had been staring at Donovan.
Although this matter seemed unrelated to Donovan, Chloe felt something was off.
Because in his eyes, he seemed to be enjoying the show.
She suddenly felt like she didn't know Donovan anymore.
"Sarah, you are Sarah!" Gordon once again became delirious, shouting wildly at Amelia, "Don't harm me, don't harm me."
Amelia was immersed in Jacob's affairs, oblivious to the chaos.
Chloe had previously informed Amelia about Gordon's illness. Amelia considered, 'Given his mental state and confusion, it's likely just a misunderstanding.' Being a widow herself, she might be in a similar age bracket as this "Sarah.”
So, Amelia didn't respond to Gordon.
"She's not Sarah!" Donovan roared at Gordon.
"Mr. Blake!" Karen implored Donovan.
"I can't do anything at Elysium Haven." Donovan refused Karen with just one sentence.
Karen left in a miserable state, feeling like she had nothing left, especially with the baby on the way.
Amelia, tired of being mistaken for "Sarah" by Gordon, worried that her presence might cause trouble and decided to leave as well.
She had always disagreed with Donovan's decision to give Jacob large sums of money.
She believed that Jacob's gambling choices were his own responsibility, and they had nothing to do with Donovan.
She didn't expect Donovan to offer any help. As they exited the Blake family's house, she suggested to Karen, "If you lose your place, you can stay at my house first, okay?"
Karen quickly shot back, "Don't even think about it!"
Remembering her previous stay at Amelia's small house, Karen refused to return to such cramped living quarters.
