“Will she do anything to us, Mom? You and Dad should refrain from heading out,” Elisa said out of worry. Before Audrey could chime in, Elisa added, “But we shouldn’t be afraid of her. If she dares try anything in Wiltspoon, we can make her pay.”Audrey said, “Don’t worry. She may not try anything openly, but it’ll be a surprise if she doesn’t attempt to do something in secret. I didn’t know her personality well enough because I was young then. Now that I’ve met her again, her character is clear to me.”“What about Grandma’s death?”Elisa looked toward Audrey. “I believe the truth will be revealed one day. You don’t have to worry about this, Elisa. You just have to manage your company and your relationship with Remy well. You two should consider marriage after the renovation is finished.“Both of you aren’t that young anymore,” added Audrey.Despite just welcoming a grandson, Audrey was eager to have another grandchild. She was trying to urge Elisa and Remy to consider getting
In a rented house, Camryn’s aunts sat on an old sofa while Carrie sat on a chair. A few rotten apples were placed on a wooden coffee table in between them. Brenda told Carrie embarrassedly, “This is how we’re living now, Carrie. Don’t be too picky. I used my connections and got a job as a cleaner in a hotel. It pays better than cleaning in a factory, but it’s only a few thousand dollars per month.“I’m happy that you got an early release, but I won’t be able to aid you financially. Please be understanding.”Amy added, “I adore you a lot, Carrie, but Camryn has caused us to be in this miserable state. We’ve lost our house and have no choice but to rent one. We even have to work as cleaners at this age to make a living. We wish to help you, but we simply can’t.”Next, she badmouthed Camryn, “It’s all that blind girl’s fault. She relied on the Yorks’ influence and oppressed us as revenge. Even if we did her wrong previously, wasn’t she unharmed?”The Joyners and Chandlers had coop
Carrie was stunned upon listening to her aunts. She said, “I did go back, but I couldn’t enter. Camryn replaced all the servants.“Moreover, she’s raising four guard dogs now. They almost bit me when I tried to climb the gates. I ran away.“I didn’t notice anything different about Camryn though. She moves freely in the house, so it’s hard to determine whether she’s still blind or pretending. I asked her to let me in, but she said she couldn’t open the door because of her blindness. I guess she hasn’t recovered her vision yet.”Carrie added, “Aunt Evelyn spent ten years trying to treat Camryn’s eyes, yet every attempt failed. Can Dr. Carden really heal her eyes?“Her being the legendary doctor’s disciple must have been an exaggeration. Even if a miracle healer does exist, he’s still human. Many doctors weren’t able to reverse Camryn’s blindness. She probably won’t be able to regain her sight for the rest of her life.“So what if she’s able to see again? She can’t give birth to a ch
“Your fight against Camryn is a Newman family matter. Serenity won’t go so far as to meddle in a family affair.”Carrie said angrily, “Are we letting her go just like that? Her happiness stems from our misery.”“What can we possibly do to her in our state? You can’t even return to your own home. Tell me—what can you use to go up against a Mrs. York?”Carrie was stunned. She wanted to bring up having found an accomplice, but she recalled Mrs. Clark telling her not to reveal their partnership, so she kept mum about it.She had not even gained Mrs. Clark’s trust yet. Mrs. Clark would decide on whether to join forces with her based on her performance after she returned to the Newman family. “Carrie, we’re not boosting Serenity’s ego at the expense of our dignity. It’s just how it is. You should think of a way to get everything back. Then, we’ll help you to manage the family business and strengthen the family’s influence. It’s not too late to get our revenge after becoming stronge
After a moment of silence, Carrie told her aunts, “Aunt Amy, Aunt Brenda, since I have nowhere to go now, I’ll have dinner here. When my cousins return, I’ll ask them to head to the villa with me and deal with Camryn’s guard dogs. I won’t forget to repay you if I can get in.”“Sure, wait here and they can go with you after their work.”Upon hearing that Carrie would be generous to them, Amy and Brenda hosted Carrie with much enthusiasm. “What do you want to eat tonight, Carrie? Let me know. I’ll get the ingredients and cook for you. Don’t expect too much though. My cooking skills are average at best.”Although the Newmans were not rich initially, they were not that poor either. Amy and Brenda had never experienced hardships or poverty since birth. Even after growing up, they chose husbands with statuses similar to the Newmans. While they were not filthy rich, they lived a comfortable life and owned a few factories, so they were financially well-off compared to ordinary people.
If Camryn was not willing to sit and talk, then Carrie could sue her.“Aunt Brenda, Aunt Amy, my dad can apply for good conduct time, but my mother’s chances of coming out are relatively low.”Amy said, “Your mother isn’t doing well in prison. The last time Trenton went to see her, she didn’t speak much. Trenton said that she wanted to give up on life.”“That’s impossible! My mother won’t give up on herself as long as she has a chance to live. She can’t bear to leave my brother and I. Camryn taking over everything in the Newman family is not a sight she wants to see.”Carrie knew her mother well and believed that she would not want to die.Her mother had a heavy sentence with a small chance of being released during her lifetime.“Trenton said that Paige’s health has deteriorated severely and she has lost a lot of weight. Camryn tore apart our perfect family. How can she be so cruel? Abel has been dead for more than twenty years. Paige is her biological mother after all, yet she’s
“Trenton always sides with that blind bitch whenever I get into a fight with her. He doesn’t care who is wrong and always blames me for everything, saying that I don’t treat Camryn as a sister. Back then, he even complained to my father.”Carrie was dissatisfied with Trenton.Amy said, “Trenton is kind-hearted. He’s rarely at home, so he doesn’t know Camryn’s true colors. Carrie, I’m worried that you can’t defeat Camryn alone. She has the Yorks’ support now. When you get back your phone and bank card, you should go and visit Trenton.“He's an adult now. If you two join forces, you can defeat Camryn. After all, you and Trenton are siblings, so you two should be closer to each other. Camryn treats him well, so she’ll hold back, which will be good for you.”Carrie said, “That’s only if Trenton is willing to work with me. You said it yourself, he’s bewitched by that blind bitch and always on her side.”Carrie felt vexed that her only brother was so kind to Camryn. Hence, she asked her
Camryn adored Callum’s family very much.She was well aware that Rosella was many times better than her own mother who had ill-treated her.Rosella was genuinely kind to her, having never discriminated against her even when she was blind. When Amy and Brenda came complaining to Rosella about her being unfit to be Callum’s wife and trying to break them up, Rosella stood up for her. Camryn was very touched by this act.That was when Camryn started to treat Rosella as a mother figure and Rosella happily accepted it.She looked into Camryn’s eyes and asked, “Camryn, is your vision better? How far can you see?”“Aunt Rosella, you can ask Camryn later in the house.”Serenity smiled and said to Camryn, “Aunt Rosella knew you were coming back, so she rescheduled all her appointments with her friends and stayed home to wait for you. Nana also said she was coming back for dinner.”Zachary and Serenity visited Alice and headed back to Wildridge Manor for a rest. Camryn came over just in ti
