Clarissa knew that Connie flew to Lotharia as her replacement. The fact that she returned meant Iris was making her move. "How did you know she's here?" Clarissa asked. "Caleb was the one who told me," Bethany replied. ** Three days ago. Connie and Iris returned to the latter's home in Lotharia. By that time, Victor and the real Iris were already gone. Connie and Iris each occupied a room. Helen was the only servant working in the house. That morning, Connie woke up, only to discover that Iris's room remained silent. She knocked on the latter's door, but received no response. So, Connie decided to enter Iris's room. It turned out that Iris was still sleeping. Connie spotted tear tracks running down her cheeks. It was Connie's first time seeing Iris with tears adorning her face. Truthfully speaking, Connie was shocked when she noticed the tears. To think that such a powerful and domineering woman like Iris would succumb to tears one day… Connie was afraid that Iris might get furious with her upon waking up, so she quickly slipped out of the room quietly. Then, she went downstairs and entered the kitchen to prepare breakfast with Helen. When Connie exited the kitchen, Iris had already gone downstairs and was sitting on a lounge chair in a sunny area. She happened to be smoking while gazing at the distant horizon. It was as if she was in a deep thought. "Miss Benson, it's time for breakfast," Connie called out. A long time had passed before Iris finally registered Connie's words and slowly walked toward Connie. In the plane, Connie thought, 'The situation now is that Iris has the key but not the password, whereas Clarissa has the exact opposite. That means I'll be able to obtain a lot of money no matter which party I help out at the end of the day. Since I can help Iris, I'll be able to help Clarissa too. If I could do a big favor for Clarissa, she'd definitely give me a huge portion of the inheritance!' It seemed Connie would have to butter Clarissa up in the future. After getting off the plane, Connie sent a Whatsapp message to Caleb. Connie: [Where are you? I want to visit you now. Send me your current location.] Connie missed Caleb very much. Soon, Caleb sent his location to Connie. The place Caleb's army was stationed at was located around an hour from Genovia. After going through a long journey, Connie finally arrived at the army camp. Coincidentally, Caleb had just received the package containing bone broth and chicken soup. Not only was the sender anonymous, but the mailing address was also scrawled in intelligible writing.
