Chapter 2123

Author: Gu Lingfei
Hayden sighed. “Perhaps someone else’s child is always better.”

Caroline laughed. “I understand, Mr. Queen. My mom’s the same. She always mentions how great other daughters are and says I’m stupid. She scolded me for being incompetent and useless.

“My mom compares me to Celine often too. She said Celine was better than me and that she wouldn’t have trained me as her successor if it weren’t for the rules set by the Fishers’ ancestors. Anyway, she hates me in many aspects.”

Caroline’s tone was nonchalant, but Hayden could sense the sadness in it.

Although Caroline did not grow up by Madam Fisher’s side, they were still mother and daughter. It would be weird if Caroline did not feel hurt by the constant scoldings she received from her mother.

“You’re a great girl, Caroline. You don’t have to care about what your mom says. I believe you’ll be able to inherit Fisher Enterprise from your mom.”

Hayden consoled Caroline.

She added, “Although Celine had grown up by Madam Fisher’s side

    “She said she could take on an easy position and wouldn’t compete with me for power. I’m not afraid of her fighting me for power, but I’ll never take in idlers.“However, it seems like my mom wants Celine back at the company. I’m not scared of her even if she returns.”Hayden turned to look at Caroline. Caroline did the same. After some time, she said, “I never thought the person who’d see through me would be you, Mr. Queen.”“Other people’s opinion of you doesn’t matter as long as your mom understands and sees through you. The matriarch of your family has absolute power. That’s why you don’t have to mind other people if your mom knows you well enough.”Caroline’s smile faltered. “My mom? She’s always biased toward Celine.” Hayden did not say a word. Celine had grown up by Madam Fisher’s side. Madam Fisher had unknowingly showered all the love she had for her daughter on Celine. Therefore, despite finding out that Celine was not her real daughter, she could not let go of the mo

    To think that Hugh had the audacity to dislike Caroline. Caroline did not even fancy him at all. However, Caroline was right. Hugh had too many close female friends from various industries. Who would believe him even if he said he was just friends with them?If he had a girlfriend, how would she be able to accept it?Caroline said, “I believe you when you said Mr. Hugh is faithful once he falls in love with someone. However, it’s difficult to make that kind of man fall in love. They’re used to enjoying a forest rather than staying with only one tree.”Since Caroline had no feelings for Hugh, it would be inappropriate for Hayden to continue talking about her younger brother. Who told her brother to look flirty all the time?From that moment onward, Hayden gave up playing matchmaker for her brother and Caroline. Hayden and Caroline strolled a few rounds around the garden. When Donald and the rest returned, Kevin cooked personally and prepared a delicious feast for everyone. O

    Did the wild girl think he had no clue she admired his sister?Unfortunately, his brother was not a brother but a sister. Caroline was bound to be disappointed. Donald suddenly got up. He told his children, “Hay, Hugh, spend some quality time with Kevin. I’m taking your mom on a drive.”“I’m going with you, Dad.”Hugh did not want to be a third wheel. Donald glared at his son. He scolded, “Why are you going on your parents’ drive? You can go on one yourself if you want to. Don’t follow us.”Hugh said, “Dad… I’m your son. Your biological son.”Donald let out a hmph and said, “I’m only talking to you because you’re my son. If it were other people, I would’ve kicked them aside right away.”Hugh was speechless.He was certain that he was a free gift given to his parents. Donald and his wife left within ten minutes. Hugh found an excuse and sneaked out too. Hayden sighed as Hugh did. She knew her family was creating a chance for her and Kevin to be alone. Was she her parents’

    Kevin paused. Then, he added in a low voice, “You have a secret passage. I do too. I can also ensure no one will find out about you going to the hotel with me.”Kevin hoped Hayden would be willing to announce her identity as a woman willingly one day. That would mean that she accepted him and was willing to return to being a woman for him. Therefore, even if Kevin knew she was a woman from the start, he still covered up for her when people were around and did not let them suspect she was a woman. “If you wish to go, we’ll depart now.”“Let me consider this.”It would be a lie to say that Hayden was not tempted. She wanted to enjoy a cool sensation in the hot weather too. However, if she allowed herself to enter the pool, she would have to spend time and effort to dress up as a man again after getting out. Usually, she would only remove the artificial skin mask of a man and revert to being a woman every night when she got home and was sure she would not be heading out again

    Hayden allowed Kevin’s pestering, which meant he did not hate him. The butler said regretfully, “Mr. and Mrs. Queen as well as Mr. Hugh’s attitude toward this matter is devastating. Mr. Hayden is such an excellent person, but… If he were a woman, or if Mr. Kevin becomes Ms. Kevin, I’d support them in being together and give them my blessing. However, they’re both men!”Hayden’s parents were not worried, but the butler was. The bodyguards remained silent. They thought their young master could be a gay, just that no one knew about it because he hid it too well. Many women fancied Mr. Hayden, but none of them could win over his heart. Was that not indirectly implying that he did not like women?If he did not like women, did that mean he preferred men?…After returning from Queen Manor, Caroline saw her mother and Celine’s cars parked in the parking lot of the front courtyard. She knew they were home. She got out of her car but did not go into the house immediately. Instead,

    Celine was dumbfounded. She only spoke one sentence. Was Caroline, who always rendered her speechless at home, actually upset?Caroline even ran into the house aggrievedly. Was she going to tattle to their mother?With that thought, Celine quickly jogged into the house. She could not let Caroline snatch the opportunity of tattling to Mom. Was the country bumpkin changing her strategy of fighting for affection?When Celine entered the house, she saw Caroline sitting beside Mom. Caroline was speaking, but she stopped when she saw Celine entering. It was obvious that she had been tattling on Celine to their mom. Their parents, brothers, and sisters-in-law’s expressions looked slightly off. “Mom.”Celine walked over quickly and squeezed herself between Caroline and their mother. She forcefully pushed Caroline aside. Next, she circled her hands around her mom’s arm intimately and said, “Mom, don’t listen to Caroline’s nonsense. I didn’t do anything to her. She was the one who

    However, a daughter’s words carried the most weight within the Fisher family. Caroline was Madam Fisher’s only daughter. She was indeed the young lady of the Fisher family who would take over as matriarch in the future. Therefore, she did have the final say in the family. Her brothers had no rights of inheritance, let alone her sisters-in-law. Although women were prioritized in the Fisher family, they had to be a Fisher and not someone who married into the family. “Alright. I’m still catching my breath. What are you all quarreling for?”Madam Fisher said in a serious tone, “Since I’ve already promised to get Caroline a new car, I won’t go back on my word. If you have any opinions on that, swallow them.“No matter what, Caroline is the young lady of our family. It’s embarrassing for her to drive an old car around. She represents the Fishers now. Her embarrassment reflects ours too. I’m doing this for our family’s reputation.“You shall accompany Caroline to get a car tomorrow,

    Madam Fisher’s husband’s last name was Clark. Everyone in the Fisher Manor addressed him as Mr. Clark. All his sons inherited his last name. Ever since Mr. Clark decided to marry Madam Fisher and become a live-in son-in-law when he was younger, it was inevitable that his wife would overpower him for the rest of his life.Luckily, Madam Fisher was in love with him too. They had feelings for each other. She would show him respect before their children and employees to establish his authority. Mr. Clark only felt like a patriarch around his children. Caroline heard her father’s words and smirked. She said, “I never thought of taking Mr. Hayden as my husband. Besides, I’ve made it clear that I was visiting Mr. Donald. Mr. Hayden just happened to be around as it was the weekend.“You don’t have to worry about me being infatuated with Mr. Hayden, Dad. Instead, you should be worried about your beloved daughter. She’s the one going wild over Mr. Hayden.”Mr. Clark looked toward Ce

    Twenty million dollars!It was the Clark brothers’ turn to exchange glances. They did not expect Jacob and Michael to name such a high price. While they could pay that amount, they did not want to hand the money to Jacob and Michael. After all, it was no longer a small sum to them, given their situation. Adrian was nervous that he would have to fork out the money himself. While he had significantly more assets than an ordinary person, most were fixed assets, and he only had a few tens of millions of savings. Therefore, he was unwilling to pay twenty million dollars out of the blue. After exchanging glances, Adrian said, “Twenty million is too much. We don’t have that much. We may be wealthy people to you, but it’s all fake. We aren’t as rich as you think.“You’re aware of the Fishers family rules—only daughters can be the successors. Sons can’t even take on the Fisher surname, let alone inherit the family assets.“When my mom was alive, she would support us financially in

    “If the plan fails, we have a backup plan—hit her bodyguards’ car and force her car to stop. That way, you two can take Caroline away and leave the rest up to us.”Adrian was prepared for various scenarios.If the car accident did not succeed, then they would first eliminate Caroline’s bodyguards. Without them, and with Darren on a business trip, they could easily take down Caroline, who did not know how to fight. After kidnapping her, they would kill and cut her to pieces before throwing her into the sea. No one would be able to find her. If Caroline were dead, the inheritance from Belinda would belong to the Clark brothers. They still could not take over Fisher Enterprise and the Fisher family or do anything to Liberty. However, with Caroline dead, there would be no one to teach the new and inexperienced Liberty. Whether Liberty could hold her ground was an unknown variable. After a discussion between Adrian and his brothers, they set two goals. Firstly, they would kill Car

    “Caroline will definitely receive retribution for this.”Adrian said with spite, “I shall see how she meets her death. The people in Wiltspoon will kill her sooner or later.“Does she think they’ll treat her well just because she betrayed her family? They despise us. She’s still my parents’ biological daughter. There’s no way she can be spared.”“You’re absolutely right.”The three men kept cursing Caroline throughout their journey. Upon arriving at Adrian’s villa, he parked the car. Jacob and Michael looked around after getting out of the vehicle. They thought Adrian’s place was luxurious. Adrian mentioned it was a small place, but it was already a lavish place to them. It was many times bigger than their house in the countryside. Adrian invited Jacob and Michael into the villa and they followed suit.Jacob whispered to Michael, “The Clark brothers are fighting with Caroline for the inheritance, Michael. They must be up to no good, calling us here.“No matter what request

    “Although Caroline is our biological sister, she doesn’t treat us as her brothers. We only recognize Celine as our sister. I really wish we could turn back time.“We shouldn’t have allowed Caroline to return to the Fisher family. Ever since she came back, the family had been declining. Many things had happened. My mom’s dead, and my dad’s crippled. All of these are related to her.“Caroline’s an ungrateful bitch. I can’t believe she sided with the people from Wiltspoon. Even now, she’s constantly in contact with them and giving away Fisher Enterprise.“It should’ve belonged to Celine.”Jacob and Michael stayed quiet. They had known for a long time that their biological sister was not Caroline but Celine, the then-successor of the Fisher family. Therefore, they treated Caroline badly and often abused her.Although Caroline had learned to put up resistance after growing up, she was still bullied by Jacob and Michael.She hated them. She did not know the truth in the past and

    The two men were Celine’s biological brothers, Jacob and Michael Dott. Adrian nodded. “That’s good to hear. Grieving is useless. Avenging Celine and seeking justice is more important.”Jacob and Michael remained silent. They could not do much. When their father was still the Fishers’ butler, he received a high salary with excellent benefits; the Dotts were the wealthiest family in their town. Since their family was rich, the brothers never put effort into studying. They spent time with questionable friends and led a life of debauchery. Jacob and Michael only matured after marrying and having kids. However, their father was already in prison. Meanwhile, Caroline, whom they used to abuse, had returned to the Fisher family. Celine had refused to return to the Dott family and simply gave them some money. Jacob and Michael had built houses in their town and furnished them well. The money they used was from Caroline and their parents’ savings. Since then, their financial crisi

    In the afternoon, Duncan fetched Liberty from Fisher Enterprise for dinner. Caroline stood at the building entrance, watching Liberty and Duncan leave. She was envious. She missed Darren. Although he was still following her, he could not expose himself before others. She was not used to it. Nevertheless, she had to endure it to lure the Clark brothers into her trap. She thought, ‘Please make your move soon, brothers. Don’t keep me waiting.’At that moment, Adrian and his brothers exited the elevator. They were discussing something as they walked. When they saw Caroline standing at the entrance, they paused for a moment. However, they quickly pretended they did not see her and walked past her.Soon, three cars left the company.Caroline stood there for a few more minutes before heading to the parking lot. Her personal bodyguards were waiting at her car. They quickly went to her when they spotted her, while one of them opened the door for her. After Adrian left the com

    “I’m used to him being by my side. Now that he’s hidden, it just feels weird.”Caroline added, “Even if I want to kiss him, I can only do it in my dreams.”Liberty was speechless. Seeing Liberty being at a loss for words, Caroline smiled. “Did I renew your impression of me?”“Yes. I didn’t know you were this kind of person.”Caroline giggled. “Darren’s too serious and respectful. If I don’t take the lead, we might sleep on opposite ends of the bed after getting married. He probably won’t even dare to turn in bed.”Liberty thought of Darren’s face, which constantly had a stern expression. He only looked normal around Caroline. He indeed treated her respectfully and never dared to offend her. Liberty said, “You’re still his master. It’s only natural that he’s acting that way.“When you two become husband and wife, he’ll change. However, you won’t have to doubt his love and loyalty for you.”The next thing Liberty knew, Caroline asked her private questions regarding married lif

    Caroline moved first, exiting the elevator.Adrian blocked her path, refusing to give way.Caroline did not want to argue with her brothers, so she simply sidestepped and continued toward the CEO’s office. The Clark brothers watched her leave.“Let’s go, Adrian.” Justin entered the elevator first.Adrian withdrew his gaze and led Jason into the elevator.“I heard Darren’s out on a business trip and has been sent to another province to handle some matters, so he won’t be back for at least ten days to half a month,” Jason shared in a low voice. “And for the past few days, Caroline’s only been accompanied by those few bodyguards of hers. There really hasn’t been any sign of Darren with her. I’ve asked someone to look into it and verified Darren left Jensburg by flight a few days ago. What do you think, Adrian?”Adrian replied under his breath, “We’re at work. Don’t talk about that here. We’ll talk about it when we get home tonight.”Justin and Jason immediately shut their mouths.

    “I’m in charge now, not your mother. If you can’t do the work, then don’t cling to your positions and collect a salary for doing nothing.”Liberty had no intention of tolerating their laziness any longer.The three brothers had tried investing and running their own businesses, but they mostly ended up losing money. The only stable income they had was from renting out the properties and shops they owned.That was why Hunter had advised his sons to return to Ashford, buy more properties and shops, and live off the rental income. It was much more stable than their business ventures.If the properties were hard to rent out, they could always sell them and recover some money, but with their business investments, not only did they lose money, they often ended up in debt by the time the businesses failed.It was a mystery how much of Belinda’s personal wealth had been spent helping her sons pay off their debts while she was alive.However, there were times when they made money.
