Chapter 438 Is This My Mother-in-Law's Diary?
Today was Saturday, and the kindergarten had organized a parent-child activity for parents to participate in. Nora wanted her dad and Miranda tocome with her, but Miranda said she had a client meeting at work this morning. The little girl couldn't do anything about it and followed Lachlan with adisappointed expression.
Lachlan, as a father, secretly chuckled to himself, thinking that this little girl was even more attached to Miranda than he was. However, what Lachlanand Nora didn't know was that after Miranda went to the company in the morning. she immediately returned to Emerald Green Estates.
At this moment, Miranda stood outside Lachlan's room with her stunning face slightly blushing. She looked absolutely gorgeous but unfortunately noone could appreciate it now. The goddess CEO seemed sneaky like a thief...
"Is this really okay?"
"Miranda, where is your pride?"
Miranda stood outside the door muttering something indecisively.
"Forget it! If I don’t find out myself, I'll go crazy!"
“Lachlan! You bastard won't explain anything right? Won't tell me anything right? Then I'll find out on my own!”
In the end, Miranda gritted her teeth and opened Lachlan's room door. The door wasn't locked. It was evident that the “family of three" was currentlyresiding in this villa, and Lachlan couldn't have been expecting Miranda or Nora. He probably couldn't have imagined that the usually aloof and proudgoddess-like CEO would sneak into his bedroom
Once inside, Miranda felt her heart racing. Subconsciously, she glanced behind her, appearing guilty and shy. This wasn't her first time entering thisroom. That night, she had lain awake between Lachlan and Nora, unable to sleep.
As a grand villa of Emerald Green Estates, the master bedroom was quite spacious, with its own bathroom, study, and living area. Miranda wasfamiliar with the layout. After calming herself, she headed straight for a desk. She pulled open a drawer and searched fruitlessly. then openedanother.
Moments later, Miranda sat in the study, her expression changing constantly. In her hand was a yellowed notebook. If it wasn't Aliya’s diary, then whatelse could it be?
"Is this... a diary?” Miranda's expression was conflicted as she muttered to herself, “Is it unethical to read someone else's diary?"
After posing this question to herself, she chuckled self-deprecatingly. What did ethics matter? She was behaving like a thief today. Thinking this, shepursed her lips and opened the diary. Seeing the delicate handwriting and the signature, a strange expression crossed the goddess CEO's face. "Isthis... my mother-in-law's?"
Miranda had asked Lachlan about his parents.
Before their wedding, their relationship had been intimate. At that time, Miranda had looked forward to walking down the aisle in a wedding dress withLachlan.
Therefore, she had inquired about Lachlan's origins and her “in-laws”. She knew that Lachlan's parents had disappeared when he was 18, and sheknew the names of his parents.
As for why they disappeared, Lachlan had claimed not to know, and Miranda hadn't pressed further. Now, as she held what seemed to be her mother-in-law's diary, Miranda's heart raced, a nervousness she couldn't quite explain.
Perhaps she could learn more about that man from this diary? Perhaps it held everything she wanted to know? Suppressing any guilt about readingthe diary, Miranda began to peruse her mother-in-law’s entries.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

Miranda's tears flowed uncontrollably. After reading the diary, the gentle and composed woman had pieced together many things.
Although she had long suspectedthat someonenad framed Lachlan,especially after encountering Theo'swife at thenight market, not gettingan explahation from that scoundre!had left F her with some lingeringdoubts.

Apart from deducing some things based on the diary, there was another reason. Despite thoroughly searching Lachlan’s room, she found nothingrelated to any other women.
In the photos Theo had given her, Lachlan was holding hands, embracing other women, giving the impression of a deeply troubled emotional life.
But if someone's life was truly in such disarray, wouldn't there be the slightest trace of it in their daily life? Furthermore, whenever Lachlan was inEdoland, he never stayed out all night.
Even when he had matters to attend to, he always came back to spend the night with his daughter. Did someone with such a lifestyle really have thetime and inclination to philander?
“You scoundrel! Lachlan, you're an infuriating scoundrel!" Miranda cursed repeatedly under her breath.
After some time, she carefully returned the diary to the bookshelf, concealing it within another book. After ensuring no traces were left behind, she leftLachlan’s room
