They walked to the bed and stood beside Madam Chen. The person stared fervently at Madam Chen’s face for a long while before they cleared the bedside wardrobe and sat on it while staring at the sleeping woman.
Some time passed and for some reason, Madam Chen opened her eyes only to see a shadow looming above her. She instinctively wanted to scream but her voice couldn’t be heard.
"Hi, long time no see, Bella."
Madam Chen froze when she heard her name. She looked at the person in front of her, she was wearing a mask and when she removed it, she got the biggest shock of her life.
’Alice?! How is that possible? They attended her funeral!’
"Don’t worry, I’m not who you think I am. I’m not Alice, but Alex. Does that ring a bell? Probably not."
That’s right, Alex doesn’t ring a bell. Is she Alice’s twin?
"That’s right. I’m Alice’s twin sister, Rossa’s mother!"
Madam Chen’s eyes widened in horror. Of course, she knew who Rossa was.
When her husband, Wales Chen married Alice Lee, she gave birth to a girl and Madam Chen paid a nurse to kill the child because she didn’t want her husband to have another child with another woman.

Madam Chen was skeptical because she was very sure that Alice didn’t give birth to twins. The nurse said so. However, there was no report of another woman giving birth in that hospital a week before and after Alice gave birth... weird, right?
The hospital only recorded one birth a week before and after Alice’s child was born.

Bella got confused as to why Alice would call her child Jeslyn and Rossa. As her Assistant and best friend, she had asked Alice a couple of times but she wouldn’t give her a definite answer.
"I like the name, it reminds me of Rose, and rose is for love... isn’t love depicted with a heart symbol?"
That explanation was weird, so Bella took it as; Alice doesn’t want to tell her why.
The most surprising thing about it all was that, in the Chen family’s record book, Alice wrote the two children’s names. One was Rossa Lee and the other was Chen Jeslyn Lee.
Alice wouldn’t give an explanation why she made the names that way, so Chen Wales left the names be.
So, what was this woman saying?
"After you killed my sister’s child, I happened to have also given birth at the same hospital as my twin sister. What do you expect? You can’t find anything even though you
