That would be an issue.

On the other hand, Caroline was on her way home.

She had received news from Darren that her mother had returned to Jensburg.

She also knew her mom had gone to Fortress Hotel right after touching down to catch Hunter in the act.

Caroline had pretended to know nothing about her father’s affair. However, as Kevin had mentioned, she was the mastermind. Kevin was simply giving her a helping hand.

Belinda had informed everyone to gather at home. Caroline guessed that Belinda’s anger had reached its limit.

She silently wished Hunter the best of luck.

Caroline’s brothers were nervous as they had no clue why Belinda suddenly summoned them back to the house.

Not only that, they were puzzled by her early return. Did she not say she would only return a few days later?

When Caroline arrived, Celine and her three sisters-in-law were already there.

Her brothers arrived shortly after.

When their gazes met, Adrian scolded Caroline, “Were you aware that Mom w

    Everyone held their breath upon seeing Hunter’s state. Belinda sat on the sofa with a cigarette in hand. She did not even spare Hunter a glance despite his sobs. The room stood in silence. Even Celine, who was Belinda’s favorite, did not say a word. Adrian crept to his wife’s side and asked softly, “What happened to Dad? Who beat him up?”Emma replied, “Mom did.”After a pause, she turned to look at Adrian. There was a hint of glee in her whisper. “Dad cheated on Mom and got caught red-handed. The woman was beaten up too.”Adrian’s expression changed upon hearing those words. He was reminded of his own affair. Although his parents had known about it and chose to turn a blind eye, Hunter’s affair was a grave issue. It would affect him and his brothers, who had committed the same mistake. Adrian kept quiet as he stood beside Emma. “Mom.”Caroline broke the silence. She glanced at Hunter whose handsome face was unrecognizable before setting her eyes on the frowning Belin

    Caroline looked toward Hunter in disbelief. Hunter felt ashamed. Most parents would conceal their mistakes and keep their children in the dark. They did not want their children’s impression of them to be ruined. However, Belinda had made his children and daughters-in-law witness his shame. His wrongdoings were exposed, and he could never raise his head proudly around them again. Luckily, his grandchildren were not around. Otherwise, he could never face them too. “Mom.”Caroline quickly sat beside Belinda and consoled her. “Mom, Dad may not have been thinking clearly at that time. He loves you so much. He might’ve fallen into a trap or was set up by that woman.”Hunter went along with Caroline’s assumption and pushed all the blame to that woman. Belinda was about to light up another cigarette but was stopped by Caroline. “Smoking isn’t good for your health, Mom.“I know you’re angry and sad, but you can’t punish your own body over Dad’s betrayal. You should stop smoki

    The Clark brothers dared not breathe heavily. Belinda had been nice to them all along. Although neither of them was an heir to the Fisher family and they took on their father’s surname instead, they were still young masters of the Fishers. Most people regarded them with respect as well. They also held important positions in Fisher Enterprise, which had provided them with money. While Caroline also held a high position in the company, she had to bear Belinda’s wrath every day. On the other hand, Belinda had never scolded the brothers unless they brought it upon themselves or committed a grave mistake. Nevertheless, they desperately wished to turn invisible when dragged into their father’s mess. They did not want to face their mother’s anger. The brothers knew how possessive she was of Hunter. Hunter was the poorest person in the family; even a maid had more money on their hands than him. “Which of you gave Hunter money? You better come clean with the exact amount you gav

    When the Fisher siblings were young, the three brothers often got into trouble and therefore scolded or punished. On the other hand, Celine always got away unscathed. Belinda glared at Celine coldly. A wave of fear swept through her. She had no choice but to go to her brothers’ side and kneel unwillingly. She scolded Hunter mentally for dragging her into the mess. Never had she thought he would ask for money to hook up with other women. She had given him the money to relax while Mom was not around at the thought of how he had been restrained by Mom all these years.However…She felt wronged. “Slap yourselves,” Belinda ordered. Hunter was bitter. “Honey, my face is all swollen from the beating you gave me just now.”“Are you going to do it yourself? Or should I do the honors?”“I’ll do it myself. You don’t have to move, Honey. I’ll feel bad if you get tired or feel pain from hitting me.”Hunter quickly slapped himself. However, the hatred in his heart for the woman gr

    “Yes, Mom.”Emma finally had a chance to get revenge on her fake sister-in-law. Ava and Ellie said, “Mom, we want to help Cece too.”Celine glared at her sisters-in-law. Did they think that Mom would back them up?She was her mom’s daughter, while they were just daughters-in-law. In most cases, daughters would be favored over daughters-in-law.Belinda glanced at them and said, “Emma is enough. You two can watch.”They replied, “Okay.”Emma walked up to Celine. Celine raised her head and said, “Please be gentle, Emma. I’m scared of the pain.”“If you don’t want Emma helping you, you should put in more strength yourself.”Celine was speechless. Emma would surely make her face swell.“I’ll do it myself, Mom. I don’t want to trouble Emma,” said Celine hastily. Belinda did not say a word. Celine thought it would be worse for Emma to hit her than exert force herself, so she no longer pretended and slapped herself hard as her brothers did. Slap!It hurt. Slap.Celin

    “Once you’re outside, your survival will depend on you alone. Don’t think I’ll go soft on you just because you’re my children. Those who betray me never end up well.”“We’re sorry, Mom. We’ll never give Dad any money again.”Adrian quickly repented and made a promise. The rest followed his lead. As Belinda mentioned, she had provided everything they owned. If they were to lose their identity as a young master of the Fishers and be expelled from the family and company, they would be nothing. No matter how deep their relationship with Hunter was, they would still choose money and status over family. Their father was a disappointment. He had the audacity to take their money to flirt with other women. Did he not know how fierce their mom was?“Break off all the love affairs you have. I’ll kick anyone who has lovers or mistresses out of the family.”When Belinda knew her sons were cheating on their wives, she did not say much or punish them. At most, she would give Caroline acce

    Caroline stuffed the ice pack she brought into Hunter’s hands for him to place on his face back in his room. He took it and hurried upstairs. Belinda and Caroline were the only ones left in the living room. Caroline sat beside her mother and comforted her. “Dad knows he’s wrong, Mom. He’ll never do it again. Don’t be sad.”Belinda sighed. She said, “Your dad must have a lot to say about me, but he doesn’t dare to resist me out of fear of my power. While we may look like a loving couple to the public, I know better.”“Since you’re aware of it, why did you choose to continue the marriage?”After a moment of silence, Belinda said, “Your dad is easy to control. He has no future, and his family relies on the Fishers to survive. He has to think for their future.“I also have to take you and your siblings into consideration. As long as Hunter doesn’t make any major mistakes, I won’t divorce him.“I thought he wouldn’t be able to do anything so long I didn’t give him money, but I ov

    “When I was beating them up back then, it should have been captured on surveillance.”Caroline said, “Mom, asking Kevin to delete the footage wouldn’t work anymore. There were so many witnesses at the hotel. Besides, Kevin might not be willing to delete it; he has never shown respect to our family.”Belinda was taken aback.True, what was the point of asking Kevin to delete the footage?With so many onlookers, the incident must have been recorded by someone. By then, the internet would most probably be full of videos of her catching her husband in the act.Her daughter's words rang true too. Even if others had not recorded it, Kevin was unlikely to delete the surveillance footage. He truly never showed respect to the Fisher family.Serenity was Tiara’s granddaughter and carried the Fisher family's blood. There was a deep-seated grudge between them.Her cousin, Audrey, had been doing well in Wiltspoon; she was the wife of Darrell Stone. Although she had retired, she still had inf

    Although they had the two hundred thousand dollars, it did not change the fact that Liberty was fifteen and Serenity was ten—they were still just children. Having been pampered by their parents and never having experienced hardship, after their sudden death and being tossed out into the street, Serenity often cried, saying that she missed their mom and dad. Whenever Liberty tried to comfort her sister, they would end up crying together in each other's arms instead.Liberty could understand Caroline's feelings, though she also accepted that Caroline was much luckier as she was of age, had a father and three older brothers, and no one could kick her out of her home. “Yeah, I’ll go out once in a while. Please thank Audrey for me and ask her to let me know when she’d like to come over so that I can hand over all my responsibilities related to the company and the family. I’ll work with her schedule. And…I don’t blame any of you for my mother’s death.”That was her mother’s own doing

    They were aware of everything Caroline had done for the family. To be honest, Caroline had indirectly saved Liberty. If she had not warned Liberty, Liberty’s bodyguards alone would not have been able to protect her when Belinda sprung that surprise attack on her. Liberty had already had a good impression of Caroline, but after that incident, that impression only grew stronger.Caroline’s smile faded a bit as she said, “There’s no rush for Darren and me. At the earliest, it’ll be at the end of the year. It’s too chaotic right now.”Liberty nodded in understanding. “As long as you and Darren are on the same page, that’s enough.”“He’s a good man. We haven’t really gone out on dates, but we know how we feel about each other. He suggested we date first, get engaged, and finally register our marriage. “He wants to take it step by step and promises I’ll have everything I want.”“Aunt Audrey and I are very reassured about your relationship with Darren. He’s a man worth spending a

    At the mention of Liberty’s wedding, Caroline congratulated her. “Have you decided to register your marriage with Mr. Lewis? Congratulations in advance! I wish you both a long life together and hope you have a precious daughter soon.”Liberty already had a son, so it seemed normal to wish for a child the second time around.However, when Liberty became the head of the Fishers in the future, Caroline understood that Liberty would need a daughter to take over from her.Liberty smiled. “It hasn’t been easy for Duncan and me to get to this point. Considering we’re not young anymore, we decided to just get it done. Thank you for your well-wishes, Caroline, but we’re not in a hurry when it comes to kids.” She did not have the energy to raise a child at the moment. Whether she took over the Fisher family or not, she was too busy right now. Even though her new company seemed to be doing well, it had not truly stabilized yet and was only temporarily so through the influence of her brot

    There were very few people left of Patrick’s generation. After a moment of silence, Caroline said, “Yes, he’s just returned to his hometown, so he should stay for a while longer. “Liberty, please tell my cousin to just give me a few days. I’ll clear the mansion out for you to move in. What I said before still stands!” Liberty elegantly sipped her coffee and did not respond immediately. Half a cup later, she set it down and looked at Caroline, who was also looking back at her.The two of them held each other's gaze for a full two minutes before Liberty averted her eyes and said calmly, “There’s no need to rush. Let’s discuss it after Christmas. My aunt hasn’t laid out a concrete schedule yet.”Caroline also set her coffee cup down. “It still needs to be cleared out and cleaned. It’s fine if you don’t move in immediately; letting it be for a bit will help disperse my mother’s lingering presence, so you won’t feel uncomfortable.” Fisher Manor did not belong to the head of th

    Caroline did not care what her father and brothers thought of her. She could hazard a guess— they were most certainly not happy with her. With that in mind, she had Darren drive her back to the office. Just as she returned to her office and poured herself a cup of water, her secretary called her on the intercom to say that Liberty had arrived.“Let her in,” Caroline said. She had not expected Liberty to come looking for her so quickly but did not think the visit was to ask her to vacate her position. Perhaps it was to check on her. A few minutes later, the secretary led Liberty in.“You can go ahead with your work,” Caroline said as she dismissed her secretary. Once the secretary left, Caroline and Liberty exchanged glances before Caroline awkwardly said, “Liberty, I don’t know how to face all of you.” “Well, I’m not here to kill you, so there’s no need to be nervous,” Liberty replied as she walked over to sit on the sofa.“Killing me would only dirty your hands,” Caro

    Not to mention the antiques. If they sold it all off, even at a conservative estimate, it could fetch them several billion dollars. That did not even include the jewelry Belinda had accumulated. Women, even the iron ladies, loved jewelry. Belinda was no exception. Many of her jewels were passed down through generations of the Fisher family, making them more valuable than the ones on the market today.Adrian’s eyes sparkled greedily but darkened just as quickly. “Dad, no one but Caroline is allowed inside the manor now.”“What? Who decided on that?” Hunter asked, alarmed.“Audrey Fisher left people to guard it. She’s even arranged for her people to take over and all the employees have been replaced, including the housekeeper.” Hunter was momentarily stunned before he spluttered, “What right does she have to do that?” Adrian was silent. Audrey was a Fisher and the eldest daughter of the previous family head, who should have inherited the title but was prevented from doing so

    Hunter signaled for the caregiver to leave and even got Adrian to make sure the caregiver exited. Once the caregiver was gone, Adrian closed the door and sat down by the hospital bed. He reached for some grapes from the fruit plate and ate them.“Dad, has Caroline mentioned anything about taking over the company?” With their mother gone, Adrian felt that Caroline should step up.“The whole company is waiting. We don’t know what her plans are. Although the company isn't in danger, it’s just like a dynasty. Just as a country cannot be without a ruler for a day, a company cannot function without someone in charge.”Hunter's face darkened in displeasure. “Don’t even mention her taking over. That girl is not on our side. Your mother was infuriated by her countless times when she was alive. If she weren’t your mom’s biological daughter, her grave would be overgrown with weeds by now.“She even said she wants to return everything to the Fisher family, including your mother’s assets. S

    It was no wonder that he was upset after hearing her say such things. “Darren, let’s go with the flow. There’s no need to force anything. We’ll let everything happen naturally.”She was not that young anymore so if she was going to get married, it would be just about time.Darren was a few years older than she was and was in his early thirties. Caroline thought that if she married him, they could get their marriage certificate after Christmas and maybe have a child the following year. Once they had completed life’s milestones, she could focus on her business.“Darren? Do you know how to take care of kids?” she asked suddenly.“I’ve never done it before, but it shouldn’t be too difficult, right?” he replied.He wondered if she was already thinking about having kids so soon.“Once we have a child, you might need to be a stay-at-home dad for a while. I’ll be busy with work and you can’t help with the actual pregnancy, but you can help with the baby afterward.”Darren chuckled,

    “Miss... Caroline, no matter what decision you make, I will support you regardless. Even if you don’t take over the Fisher family, you have enough assets of your own and your companies are doing well,” Darren assured Caroline.Darren had read up on Caroline's private businesses before and knew that the companies under her name were thriving. Even after returning to the Fisher family, she only occasionally visited, and still, the businesses ran smoothly. Caroline was an amazing woman to Darren. She did not need to inherit a family fortune to forge her own path. Still, what he loved most was Caroline’s confidence.“And you still have me,” he added.With his support, Caroline’s career would reach new heights.Caroline turned to look at him. After a beat, she smiled. “When I first came back, I really regretted it and wished I hadn’t returned to the Fishers because I couldn’t stand them. But ever since you came into my life, I’m grateful that Celine and I returned to our rightful
