Sophie did not expect that not only did her benefactor not show his face, he even refused to allow her to communicate with the outside world. She suddenly felt rather disappointed. 1

She asked tentatively, "Will you let me report my safety to my family? My grandfather must be very worried about the safety of my mother and I. We would just like to inform him that we are both safe..." 6 The woman shook her head and said seriously, "Sorry Ms. Schulz, our young master's order was to not contact anyone from the outside, no matter who the other party is."

Although Sophie didn't understand thoroughly, she nodded her head slightly and thought to herself,' Although this arrangement looks as if my benefactor has placed me under house arrest, I believe he must have his reasons, and it must be a good and thoughtful intention.'

Therefore, she said, "I understand, thank you."

The lady immediately said, "You're welcome, Ms. Schulz. If you and Mrs. Schulz need anything, just inform us. Including what you wish to eat or drink, what you want to wear, you can request anything from us. Our young master has left instructions for us, so let

us arrange everything for you." "Alright..." Sophie bowed slightly as she said gratefully, "Thank you!"

As soon as she finished her sentence, she realized that she was indeed feeling a little hungry. She then said, "That... In that case, can I trouble you to help purchase some breakfast for my mother and I?" The lady said earnestly, "Definitely, Ms. Schulz. May I know what you would like to eat?"

Sophie quickly replied, "Anything is alright, as long as it's plain."

"Noted." The lady said, "Ms. Schulz, please return to your room and rest for the time being. I will inform the kitchen to prepare it now."

"Thank you!"

Sophie thanked her and retreated into her room.

As she was returning to her room, Helen walked out of the room. Her expression seemed to be a little disappointed and lost, and she quickly asked, "Sophie, how did it go?"

Sophie said helplessly, "There are four female bodyguards at the door. They refused to let me out, saying that it was the benefactor's orders, to let us stay here for the time being. There are many people outside looking for us. For the sake of our safety, the benefactor doesn't allow us to contact the outside world."

"I originally wanted to report our safety to Grandfather, but they didn't allow it."

Helen nodded slightly and said with a serious tone," This is understandable. Your grandfather wants my life, and some people want yours. I don't know how complicated the situation has become. If the outside world knows that the both of us are still alive, I am afraid that it will truly bring a lot of danger and cause trouble to your benefactor."

Sophie asked, "Mother, the female bodyguard at the door said that the benefactor is the young master of their family. So, who do you think is their young master? Is there any great family in Aurous Hill?" "Aurous Hill?" Helen frowned for a moment and said seriously, "I don't really know the situation in Aurous Hill. I know that there's a Moore family with assets of hundreds of billions. Our benefactor is too extraordinary. He's definitely not someone who was nurtured by the Moore family."

"In other words, if the Moore family could cultivate such an extraordinary talent, the strength of the Moore family would not be the way it is today." Sophie asked again, "Then, could it be a hidden family?"

"Hidden family?" Helen thought for a moment before replying, "I can't say for sure, but to tell the truth, Aurous Hill's economical situation is not ranked in the top ten in Oskia. In this kind of city, it is highly unlikely to host any strong hidden families. The waters have to be deep enough in order to hide such giants." 2

Sophie nodded in agreement and muttered to herself." This is indeed true..."

As soon as she had finished speaking, an idea popped up in her head, and she then said, "Mother, do you think our benefactor is the young master of a big family from Eastcliff or some first-tier big city?"

"First-tier big city?" Helen was silent for a moment and said, "There are only a few top families in Oskia. As far as I know, these families do not have powerful young masters. Take the Schulz family for example. Including your brother, since when were there such powerful people in the newer generation of male grandchildren? The chances of the other families having someone this capable is even slimmer."
