1225: Chapter 1222: But This Is Not a Birthmark 1225: Chapter 1222: But This Is Not a Birthmark “Yes, madam.”
After giving instructions, Madam White led Rebecca Kelloway and Annie Lawrence upstairs to change their clothes.
Joanna Lawrence gazed at the departing figures of Rebecca and Annie, feeling as if sothing was off.
She had clearly seen Annie herself spill the wine on her clothes just now.
Obviously, she had intended to dirty the dress.
It seed that Rebecca was aware of this matter as well.
What were they trying to accomplish with this act?
Although Joanna had no idea what they were plotting, she could sense that their target seed to be Madam White.
It appeared that they were trying to lead Madam White away.

Upstairs.
Madam White took Rebecca and Annie to a guest room, and picked out one of her rarely worn clothes.
After handing the clothes to Rebecca, she planned to leave.
“You can go downstairs after changing your clothes.
If you need anything, feel free to ask the servants.”
Between the lines, Madam White was saying that they should not bother her with minor matters like this.
“Madam White, thank you for your help.”
Rebecca took the clothes and handed them to Annie, “Quickly change.”
“Thank you, Madam White.” Annie could clearly see that Madam White didn’t like her.
If it weren’t for Rebecca, Madam White wouldn’t have paid her any attention.
She thought it must be because Joanna had spoken ill of her to Madam White.
That must be the reason why Madam White disliked her.
Did that petty girl think this tactic would be useful?
Soon, Madam White’s attitude towards her would change.
At that ti, she, Annie Lawrence, would be the darling of the White family.
What would Joanna an then!
Because of Joanna, Madam White disliked Annie extrely.
She offered no response to her words, only giving her an indifferent glance before turning to leave.
Just as she reached the doorway, she heard Rebecca’s surprised voice from behind, “Annie, you actually have a red birthmark here, and it’s in such a unique position.”
Madam White’s footsteps paused.
Behind her, Annie saw Madam White standing at the doorway, and slowly raised a smile at the corner of her mouth, speaking unhurriedly, “Yes, but it’s not a birthmark.”
“If it isn’t a birthmark, then what is it?”
“I heard from my dad that this mark was left by my birth mother.
She probably did it because she was afraid of mistaking her child later on.
So, she left the strawberry mark as a sign.”
“What?” Rebecca seed very shocked, “You an, your current mother is not your biological mother?”
“Yes, actually, my dad is not my biological father either.” As Annie spoke, her tone beca downcast.
While glancing at Madam White, who remained still by the door, she feigned a sorrowful expression and whispered, “They are my adoptive parents.
My real parents… I still don’t know where they are.”
“How did this happen?
I’ve never heard you ntion it before.”
“I’m not sure either.
It seems that back then, my dad’s boss was in danger and couldn’t take with him.
So, they entrusted to my adoptive father, who was very loyal to the boss and treated like his own daughter.”
“That’s why I feel that even if I don’t know who my biological parents are for my entire life, it doesn’t matter.
My adoptive parents treat well enough.
My life isn’t worse than those children living with their biological parents.”
