“Mom, I think this was an accident. Celine wouldn’t seduce Dad,” said Caroline. She was not helping Celine. With these words, Belinda would not suspect her. Of course, she was not the culprit. However, she knew who was behind it all. She was aware of everything her sisters-in-law had done. She simply did not inform Celine and let everything unfold. Even someone dumb would know that Celine or Hunter would never have such intentions. Although Hunter was perverted and had affairs with younger women, he would not touch Celine. After all, he treated her as his daughter. Even if his true daughter had returned to the Fisher family, Hunter still adored Celine the most. On the other hand, he was unable to develop any fatherly love for Caroline and even helped Celine to compete against Caroline. Now that Hunter and Celine were caught having sex by Belinda, things would not end well for them. Belinda shouted with a livid face, “I said, throw Celine out! I never want to see her
Emma asked cautiously, “Are we really doing that? Aren’t we going to wait for Celine to wake up and hear what she has to say?”Belinda glared at her eldest daughter-in-law. “Are my words powerless now? Do what I tell you. Go. Do it right now. If not, pack your things and get lost.”Emma was startled. She quickly replied, “We’ll do it now, Mom. Please don’t be angry. It’s not worth affecting your health.”Emma squinted her eyes at Ava and Ellie, hinting at them to follow her to deal with Celine. The butler arrived upstairs. She dared not make a sound after hearing her boss’s angry voice. After her sisters-in-law left, Caroline spotted the butler.“Calm down, Mom. Have some tea.”Caroline passed a teacup to Belinda. After downing half a cup of tea, Belinda was still as furious as ever. Therefore, Caroline walked toward the butler, Elaine, and asked in a soft voice, “What’s wrong?”“There was a car accident when Ms. Hunt was on her way home, Ms. Caroline. Her car was overturne
“No matter what, I have to meet his family.”“His parents have passed away. He is survived by his younger brother. I’ll contact you when he comes over. My family is a mess now, Liberty. I’ll handle that first, and we can talk next time.”Liberty agreed. Caroline ended the call. “Let me go. I want to meet Mom. I want to meet her. Let me go.”Celine, who had woken up, was dressed appropriately. However, she was being hauled downstairs by two of her sisters-in-law while the other was following them from behind with some clothes. The three Clark brothers dared not utter a word. They simply stared at their father. Hunter’s face was pale. He sat on the ground, having no energy to stand up. His sons had dressed him, yet he still felt as if he was naked in front of them. His mind was blank. He did not know how everything transpired. Looking at Celine being dragged away by his daughters-in-law, he showed fear but still could not say a word. Hunter would not have a good ending h
“Adrian, take me to your mom.”While Hunter felt sorry for Celine, he needed to protect himself first. After snapping back to his senses, he thought of admitting his mistake and explaining the situation to his wife. Adrian and Justin helped Hunter get up and walk out of the room. “Honey.”When Hunter saw Belinda sitting in the study with a stern expression, he immediately broke away from his sons’ hands and walked toward her. He knelt silently and proceeded to slap his mouth continuously. Belinda simply stared at him coldly. The brothers dared not put in any words for their father. They stood aside and watched as their father knelt and slapped himself without any pride left in him. Hunter struck himself hard, and his cheeks soon turned red. There was even a trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth. Belinda held her icy gaze. It was so emotionless that Hunter’s heart beat nervously when he glanced at her. He knew he would have to face a grave punishment. After s
“Mom, have a good talk with Dad, listen to his explanation, and don’t make decisions that you’ll regret,” Caroline gently advised.Belinda waved her hand, signaling her daughter to leave with her siblings.As Caroline passed by her father, she quietly said, “Dad, properly explain things to Mom. You and Mom have been husband and wife for decades.”Hunter nodded. He wanted to speak but did not know what to say.In critical moments, his biological daughter would still speak up for him due to their blood relationship.After all four children left the study, Belinda walked over and checked if the study door was closed. She opened it once more to look outside making sure none of her children were eavesdropping, before closing the door again.She then locked the door.Belinda turned back and stopped in front of her husband, looking down at him.“Honey, I really don’t understand why something like that happened. I’m sure both Celine and I were set up,” Hunter explained sincerely.Afte
Hunter, realizing his words, hurriedly continued, “Honey, it’s the alcohol’s fault. There must be something wrong with the drinks. Celine and I behaved like that because of the alcohol. You arranged a banquet tonight and someone must have tampered with the drinks.“It’s that person, her name’s Liberty, right? She is the descendant of your sister. Many people say you’ve caused your sister’s death, and she’s here for revenge, to retaliate against you. She doesn’t want your life to be easy. She knows you cherish Celine the most, and since Celine isn’t our biological daughter, she designed it to affect both of us and strike at you.”Belinda knew there was a problem with the drinks.She sneered, “Liberty didn’t touch the drinks from the moment she entered until she left. How could she have schemed against you and Celine? Hunter, even if you two were drugged, it couldn’t have been Liberty’s doing, even though I knew she came to Jensburg for the sake of the Fisher family.“I may be old, b
Hunter’s choice, unknown to the people in Wiltspoon, was made in the dead of night.Zachary’s phone rang in the wee hours, waking him up. He quickly grabbed his phone and answered without checking the caller ID. He then sat up, tiptoeing out of the bedroom. In a hushed voice, Zachary asked, “Who is it?”“Zack, it’s me.”“Kev, it’s late, haven’t you gone to sleep?”Hearing it was his cousin calling, Zachary hurriedly half-closed the bedroom door.After he stepped out of his room, only then did he speak a bit louder."Is something wrong?"Kevin asked first, “Zack, Serenity hasn’t woken up, right?”“No, since she got pregnant, she has slept very soundly. Did something happen to Liberty?”Otherwise, Kevin would not call him in the middle of the night.Zachary’s heart was hanging in suspense.His sister-in-law had only gone to Jensburg for a short time. If something happened, Serenity would certainly not be able to bear it.“There’s been an accident. We just returned to the hote
“Liberty’s bodyguards hitched a ride in Hayden’s bodyguard car. They all claimed to have drunk and couldn’t drive. The butler of Fisher Manor probably wasn’t in the know, but when Liberty made a request, she satisfied her every need.“The car crash seems like an accident, but none of us believes it’s accidental. The dashcams of the two bodyguard cars behind could be reviewed. The speeding truck overtook the two bodyguard cars and directly pursued the car Liberty arrived in at Fisher Manor. There were no vehicles in the adjacent lane. Normally, a truck could change lanes to overtake instead of directly chasing after a specific car and rear-ending it.“The truck was speeding, and the force of the rear-end collision was too great. The car Liberty was supposed to be in was flung into the opposite land and overturned with all four wheels in the air. Soon after, the car caught fire, and we couldn’t save anyone or put out the fire.”The Fisher Manor’s bodyguard who was burned to death died
