Liberty read between the lines of Audrey’s suggestion and nodded with a smile. “I hope my food will be served all over the country one day.”“Liberty, that day will come,” Serenity cheered.She had complete faith in Liberty’s ability to pull it off.Audrey laughed and said, “All women of Fishers are capable.”Especially the eldest daughter.If it had not been for their family’s demise decades ago, Liberty would have been the matriarch of the Fisher family.The women in the Fisher family were all capable.Caroline Fisher was a good example. She pretended to be weak and deceived the entire family.Perhaps the only person who could see through Caroline’s act was her biological mother, Belinda.Serenity hesitated to speak and she kept mum till the end.She was fully aware that her sister was capable but becoming the matriarch of the Fisher family might be very intense. After all, it involved grudges across two generations.The current matriarch was so cruel as to kill her elder
Audrey did not notice Serenity’s hesitance, but Liberty did and guessed that her sister wanted to talk to her about the Fisher family from Jensburg.After the Hunt sisters went out, the only ones left in the living room were Darrell, Zachary, and Remy.Grandma May did not follow Zachary and Serenity to the Stones’ residence after the hospital visit, so Zachary arranged for someone to take his nana back to the villa. Zachary did not know and could not care less whether Grandma May made a detour before going home. She was an active elderly woman who just would not stay at home.The three grown men drank tea and chatted about business matters.The Hunt sisters walked out of the house. Liberty wanted to help her sister down the steps, but Serenity smiled and said, “Liberty, I’m less than three months in, and my body hasn’t changed much yet. Aside from the morning sickness a while back that reminded me of the pregnancy, I’m not any different than before. You don’t need to help me down t
Liberty paused for a moment and said, “Caroline is in a very difficult situation now. If we go back, it’ll be even more difficult for her.”Caroline was Belinda’s daughter. If she had been trained as a successor since she was a child, she would have been able to take over smoothly. However, she was swapped out and had spent over twenty years in the housekeeper’s household.Her level of education was incomparable to the others in the Fisher family.After Caroline returned to the Fisher family, the fake heiress, Celine, continued to stay with the Fishers and became the second young lady of the Fisher family. In the eyes of outsiders, the Fisher family was partial to Celine. After all, they had been living with Celine for more than twenty years.In the past, Belinda did her best to raise Celine because she did not know that Celine was not her blood. Although Celine was not particularly outstanding, she was still much better than Caroline, who had just returned to the Fisher family. At
Staying single was better than settling for a bad marriage.Everyone’s way of life was different.“I saw Belinda Fisher at my wedding. She didn’t leave immediately after coming to Wiltspoon. I thought she would visit Aunt Audrey, but nothing happened even after two weeks.”Serenity had never met Belinda before and only noticed her presence when Zachary pointed it out to her at their wedding.It was Serenity’s idea to invite Belinda to their wedding because she wanted Audrey to see Belinda and confirm her identity.Even though Audrey and Caroline had done a blood test, it was best to confirm again.That way, they would know who their enemy was before they took their revenge.“Maybe she’s feeling guilty, or maybe she has already left.”Liberty was busy with her sister’s wedding and did not pay attention to the Fisher family.She did not even see Belinda there.“I think she may be investigating Aunt Audrey and our grandmother.”Serenity made a guess. “News spread in Jensburg th
Liberty poked Serenity’s forehead and said, “Zachary is concerned about you. Besides, he only talks to me when you’re the one in the wrong. He doesn’t make false accusations. If he doesn’t care about you at all, he won’t even pay attention to what you do.”Serenity smiled. “Yes, my Zachary’s the best. My bad, Liberty. He’s just concerned about me.”“That’s right. Yet you got unhappy when your mistakes were pointed out.”Liberty poked Serenity’s forehead again. “I told Zachary to inform me if he couldn’t handle you. I’m the only person who can make you behave.”Serenity stuck out her tongue playfully. They continued strolling in the Stones’ courtyard to exchange secrets and then returned to the house. Not long after, Audrey and Elisa went to the hospital with a few containers packed with food. Remy drove them while Darrell was tasked to entertain Zachary. Since Serenity and Liberty had visited Alice and the baby, they left shortly after having a meal at the Stones’ house.
Never mind if her best friends did not pick her up, but even her relatives were not there. Did they decide to curry favor with Camryn after she had taken over the family business? Now that Carrie was out of jail, she wanted to snatch the family business back. Her dad had run and managed the business all along. She could not let Camryn gain all the advantage. Besides, could a blind person like Camryn manage a company?Mr. Dalton Mitchell was most likely a pretentious person. He must have turned to Camryn after seeing Carrie and the Newman couple being sentenced to prison while Trenton was still in school. Since Carrie was released, he would probably side with her. Her dad had supported Dalton in climbing up the corporate ladder, so how could he be on Camryn’s side?Carrie stopped after taking a few steps.Two cars drove over slowly and stopped in front of her. Someone in the first car lowered the window. An unfamiliar, old face appeared. Well, that person was not that old
“Reveal your identity and the person who ordered you to pick me up. Otherwise, I won’t follow you.”After a short pause, the old woman said, “You’ve matured after being in prison. My husband’s last name is Clark and he was your dad’s business partner. They’re acquaintances.”Clark?Carrie did not know much about her family business. Her parents rarely talked to her about business as she was still young. The only thing she knew was her family was rich and her parents would give her anything in the world. Sometimes, she heard her dad mentioning that their business was booming. They must have come because they knew her dad. “How did you know that I’m being released today, Mrs. Clark?”The old woman’s smile never faltered. “I had someone find out this information several times. We’re friends with Mr. Newman as we collaborated on some projects previously. He requested us to look after his son and daughter before going to jail.“Your brother’s doing well. He’s on good terms with
Everything Mrs. Clark mentioned about helping her was simply out of courtesy. All of Carrie’s misfortune stemmed from Camryn and Serenity. Her parents, who had protected her all along, were in jail because of Camryn. She bore an irreconcilable grudge against Camryn and refused to witness her two enemies becoming the Yorks’ daughters-in-law.As for Trenton, he had been closer to Camryn than he was to Carrie since he was young. He always accused Carrie of bullying Camryn too. Carrie knew she could not count on Trenton to work with her. She was young and lacking in connections and capability. It seemed she had no choice but to join forces with other people. It did not matter whether what Mrs. Clark said was true. Anyone who was Serenity’s enemy could be her partner. The enemy of her enemy was an ally. Therefore, Carrie got into Mrs. Clark’s car. After the car started moving, Carrie asked, “Do you know how my aunts are doing now, Mrs. Clark? I can’t possibly seek revenge and
