Rose stared at Luke. "I'm the one who's vicious? Uncle Luke, you can't just throw baseless accusations at me just because you want to protect Summer after she found someone to ruin me. I have no idea what this broken car you're talking about is. What do your car's issues have to do with me?""You got someone to sabotage the car!" Luke shouted furiously.This morning, when he and Kristen were about to rush out, they were stopped at the garage by Phoebe.Initially, the two of them had insisted on leaving. It was only when Summer came downstairs and intercepted them that they learned that their car had been tinkered with."The surveillance cameras in the garage have been tampered with," Summer said lazily.Rose rolled her eyes and laughed. "So, you don't have any evidence? I'd always treated you as my family since you raised me for years. Since you're going to cover for Summer so shamelessly, let's just lay everything on the table today!"With this mess, there was no way Rose would
The Many Faces of a Vengeful Heiress Chapter 103
The person who had tampered with the car was one of the gardeners that had been recently hired to tend to the Hartford residence's yard, Terry Bullard.Rose had overheard him on the phone and learned that he was a hopeless gambler who racked up massive debt. His creditors were pressing him so hard that his life was basically on the line.Rose had been desperate when she chose to harm Luke and Kristen. So, she paid off all of Terry's debts, which nearly wiped out all the savings she had secretly accumulated over the years.Even though the surveillance footage had been destroyed, Rose still took some precautions. After Terry sabotaged the car, she ordered him to immediately flee as far as possible and only to return once the storm had settled.She was certain that he had been on the run. That was why she was being so arrogant in front of Summer."Rose, are you still refusing to admit it at this point?" Luke, who was usually very composed, was angrier than he ever had been.That nas

"Ms. Hartford, everything I said is true. I just wanted to pay off my gambling debts. How could I dare to kill anyone? You have to believe me!" Terry panicked as he pleaded with Summer."Rose already said she doesn't know you. What else can I do?" Summer said helplessly."I have proof!" Terry suddenly shouted.Rose's expression instantly changed as she kicked Terry. "What else are you going to pull out to frame me?"Terry grabbed her foot and shoved her away. Rose lost her balance and ended up falling to the ground.It was the beginning of summer, so the housekeeper had taken the thick carpets away for cleaning two days ago. Rose fell directly on the cold, hard floor, and she lay there for a moment, unable to move."Good thing I knew to protect myself, or I'd be dead because of you!" Terry spat.After that, he looked at Summer, "Ms. Hartford, she told me that she would give me 150,000 dollars to pay off my debt if I tampered with the car. Then, she would give me another 50,000

"Yes! I ordered it! I wanted the two of you dead!" Rose shouted at Kristen and Luke."You wretched thing!" Henry, who had been watching dumbfounded, finally snapped out of it. He let out a furious roar as he raised his hand to slap Rose.Summer stopped him. "Grandpa, she's not worth dirtying your hands over.""I spent so much money to raise you, and this is what you've become? You're a heartless, venomous creature." Henry frowned as he looked at the recording.Rose sneered. "Did I ask you to raise me? Do you really think you're my savior? If you hadn't stood by and done nothing back then, would my parents have died? Would I have become an orphan? I would never have needed to rely on your so-called pity and lived in this house.""How could you say something like that?" Kristen looked at her in shock."Am I wrong? Don't think that I don't know why you took me in." Rose's face was full of ridicule.She continued, "Back then, my parents' deaths caused a huge stir. How did the public

Rose's mind went completely blank under Summer's constant bombardment of questions.When she got her hands on that photo last night, she had thought that Summer wouldn't have any evidence against her. Otherwise, there was no way Summer would have let her run free for so long.She never expected that Summer had everything she needed to completely destroy her.Summer chuckled softly. "As for your claim that I used you to clear my own name, weren't all of the so-called stains on my reputation caused by you in the first place? Shouldn't I be using you to clear my own name?"Rose looked at Summer, furious. "So, it seems like you know everything.""I know far more than you think," Summer said slowly."Summer, you really do know how to put on an act. It's a shame you weren't an actress!" Rose spat."Rose, you harmed Summer, and now, you're acting like she's in the wrong? You're just like that useless father of yours!" Henry said furiously.That was what Rose hated to hear the most. He

Those words felt like a dagger to Rose's heart."You've already been completely exposed. There's nothing more to say, so just get out. From tonight onward, you have nothing to do with the Hartfords," Summer said.Rose thought her threats had scared Summer, and she immediately grew emboldened. "You think you can just kick me out like that? What you said earlier just reminded me. You caused me to lose all my money, and I've been defiled. You should at least compensate me.""How can you be so shameless?" Luke asked in disbelief.They were already being more than merciful by not holding her accountable, and she was still shameless enough to ask for compensation.Rose sneered. "You can say whatever you want. I don't want much. Get me a standalone villa and three million dollars in cash. Since you're kicking me out, I need to survive myself. I need to eat and have a place to live. This amount is nothing to you anyway."Summer suddenly laughed.Rose eyed her with caution. "What are you

Was severing ties with Rose a negative move for the Hartfords? Strictly speaking, it wasn't. Back then, Summer had faced the press for Rose's sake, which made it clear that the Hartford family supported Rose. So, why would they suddenly sever ties with Rose now?This question alone would spark a lot of discussion.But no matter how much discussion it stirred, it wouldn't affect the Hartford family at all.On the other hand, Rose, who had always flaunted the Hartford family name outside, would lose their protection. She would be having a miserable time ahead."Are you just going to let her go crazy like this?" Rose was on the verge of breaking down thinking about how much she would be affected after they severed ties.Henry looked at Rose in disgust. "Summer is right! Since you think we only showed you kindness and raised you for the outside world to see, then we'll just sever our ties with you. The Hartfords won't take advantage of you any longer!""You're insane! You're all in

Kristen held Summer's hand tightly. "You should be just like this from now on. If anyone bullies you, don't endure it. Fight back! But you can't take these risks anymore. You have to tell us, okay?""Okay." Summer nodded."What do we do with the gardener?" Luke asked.Since they weren't pursuing the matter with Rose anymore, the question of what to do with Terry became an issue.Summer raised an eyebrow slightly. "Let him go.""Wouldn't we be going too easy on him if we just did that?" Henry objected."Bad people will always be dealt with by other bad people," Summer said meaningfully.The three adults exchanged confused glances with each other. But in the end, they did as Summer said and released Terry.Rose was thrown out of the Hartford residence in broad daylight. There were a lot of people passing by. Thus, she suppressed the anger inside her, stopping herself from yelling."Summer, just you wait!" She glared fiercely at the Hartford residence one more time before she tur

"I got it." Summer knew that going head-to-head with the Hunt family this time must have caused Mason to be caught in the middle of some immense pressure and criticism.So, she didn't want him to worry about her too much.Chandler's incident had stirred massive public attention following Summer's live stream. In the next two days, more and more people were speaking out online.The police department responsible for the investigation was finally compelled to issue a statement, promising a lawful and thorough investigation into the case.Paul's family had rested at the Hartford residence for a day before they started to recover a little."We won't hold the funeral here. Our family back home is already handling the arrangements," said Paul's wife, Bailey Oak. Her eyes were still swollen from crying.Kristen nodded. "Alright. Don't worry. Mr. West has worked with our family for over ten years. He was practically one of us, so we'll make sure to take care of your family in the future."

"You know how vicious the Hunt family can be. Back then, I…" Kristen instinctively pressed her hand to her lower abdomen with an expression of grief. "I'm afraid of losing another child."Luke had an expression that was full of heartache. He gently pulled Kristen into his arms. "That won't happen. From now on, we will face everything together. We'll definitely protect Summer."Can I really do that?" Kristen's tears fell uncontrollably.Back then, she thought she could protect the child in her belly, too. But in the end…Luke said firmly, "You can. You definitely can. My wife has always been the strongest person I know!""Yes." Kristen nodded as she leaned against his shoulder.They had never spoken of that pain over the past 20 years. This was the first time. Summer's actions today had been like a key that unlocked this long-suppressed wound in Kristen's heart.Neither of them knew that Summer hadn't gone to sleep, either. She stood at the window in her room and could just see th

"Something like that happened?" Rosanna looked shocked. She had been locked up at the time.Jane sighed deeply. "I just heard about it, too. The kidnappers told her not to go to the police. They said they'd kill the kids if she did. In the end, she didn't report it and ended up paying 70 million dollars in ransom."Jane sighed again. "But she ran into some real monsters. After they got the money, they sent her a location to get the kids. When she got there, all she saw were their decomposing bodies!"Rosanna covered her mouth. "Oh, my God! Did they catch the kidnappers in the end?"Jane shook her head regretfully. "They were professionals, so how could anyone catch them? She lost her money and her children. Mrs. Mills fell seriously ill and is still in the hospital.""Those kidnappers are truly heartless!" Rosanna said."They were only missing for three days. Based on the state of the bodies, the kids were probably killed the moment they were kidnapped," Jane said.As Rosanna lis

Jane always outshone Rosanna in every way, so how could Rosanna possibly like her?Jane said softly, "Rosanna, I know you don't like me, but you're still family. I know you're just a straightforward and blunt person. You've never meant me any harm.Rosanna rolled her eyes internally at that. Jane couldn't be more wrong."I don't want you and Aspen to get divorced." Jane helped Rosanna sit down and crouched to examine her ankle. "It's sprained. I'll call a doctor.""No!" Rosanna was incredibly vulnerable at that moment.A vulnerable person's greatest weakness was someone being gentle to them.Jane frowned. "How could you not see a doctor? Just wait here. I'll go quietly. I'll make sure no one notices and bring the doctor over. No one will find out."After a pause, Jane continued, "I won't tell anyone about the divorce, either."Rosanna's ankle was throbbing with pain. After a moment of hesitation, she nodded. "Don't tell everyone!"Jane smiled gently and went off to find the doc

"As lawyers, we only need to achieve the desired outcome for our client. Nothing else matters," Malcolm said.The assistant fell silent.Aspen slumped down onto the hospital bed, looking defeated, while Rosanna sobbed uncontrollably."Enough crying. Go check on Mom," Aspen said impatiently.Rosanna choked out, "I refuse! Your mother never liked me to begin with. With what happened to Chandler, both of us are responsible as his parents, but your mother will definitely only blame me! You can go if you want!"After that, Rosanna grabbed her purse."Where are you going?" Aspen asked."I'm going to figure out a way to save my son!" Rosanna snapped and started to walk off.Aspen grabbed her arm. "I'm warning you. Don't go after Kristen again! This has nothing to do with her!""Kristen, Kristen! She's all you care about, even now. Her daughter stood there and humiliated you in front of everyone, making you out to be some creepy stalker, and you're still defending her?" Rosanna finally

"Chandler from that certain all-powerful family underwent a psychological evaluation every six months at his school abroad. Just over two months ago, when he had just returned to the country, he had one done. "His mental state is fine. You parents might've been driven crazy by anger, but not him."There was a frenzy online.The original post was quickly deleted, but people had already saved screenshots of all the relevant documents.Inside the Hunt residence, Aspen's hand was wrapped in gauze when he heard what the lawyer had to say. He exploded on the spot. "Who leaked something this private? Check with Chandler's school! I'm suing them! Every last person who leaked it!"The lawyer said gravely, "I've already checked. The school's digital database was hacked. Mr. Hunt, I told you yesterday to maintain a good line of communication with the victim's side. If you did, there might have been a chance for settlement. Why did you hire online trolls to spread lies?"The lawyer added, "N

"Mason, I'm not doing this for the Fridman family. I'm now a part of the Hunt family as your aunt. Even if you don't want Violet, that's fine. Summer really isn't right for you!" Jane still wore that sincere, gentle expression."Have you ever thought about why a girl with such ambition would want to be with you?" Jane asked.Mason looked at Jane. "That's where you're wrong. Summer wasn't the one who came looking for me. I'm the one who chased after her."Jane was speechless.Who in their right mind would believe that?At that moment, the elevator arrived. Mason didn't say another word to her as he got in the elevator and left.Jane stood in place.She never imagined that everything she had so carefully planned would be thrown off by the Hartford Group heiress who appeared out of nowhere."All that effort, Jane, and you were paving the way for someone else." A flamboyantly dressed woman walked over at that moment.She, too, was one of the many daughters-in-law of the Hunt family

"Tell Grandma I was here," Mason said before he turned to leave.These past few days had been unbearable for Aspen, especially with everything Summer exposed that day.All these years, people had assumed that there had been something between him and Kristen. It had always been something he could brag about, but the truth was exposed to the public today. That last shred of connection he had with Kristen had shattered as well.On top of that, Chandler was about to face serious criminal charges. Aspen felt like his heart was being set on fire."Mason!" he shouted after Mason, but Mason ignored him.Aspen clenched his teeth and rushed toward Mason with a sharp fruit knife in hand.Things had come to a point of no return anyway. If he had nothing left to lose, he might as well drag Mason down with him. If he killed Mason, maybe Royal Financial Group would fall back into Victoria's hands.But Aspen had underestimated Mason too much. His blade didn't even graze Mason. Mason merely gra

In the end, Mason still went to the private hospital that the Hunt family owned. As he stepped out of the elevator, all he saw were members of the Hunt family, gathered in full force.Mason knew exactly what was going on.These people hadn't shown up out of affection. They were just afraid that Victoria might actually die, so they were here early to wait for the inheritance."Mason, what the hell did you do to Grandma?"The moment they saw Mason, they pounced like a pack of wild dogs, but not a single one of them actually dared to touch him.If Victoria did die, Mason's threat level would skyrocket a hundredfold."This is a hospital. Why are you all being so loud?" Mason asked coldly.Jane ran over. "Everyone, calm down. This had nothing to do with Mason. She only got a heart attack because of Ms. Hartford's press conference."After that, Jane looked at Mason. "Mason, everyone's just worried, so they're a bit emotional. Don't take it to heart.""Where is Violet?" Mason asked.
