Maria stiffened when she saw Anastasia, snapping, “What the hell are you doing here?!”“Aunt Maria,” Anastasia greeted and entered to look at the mess. After hearing about what had happened, she knew the house would be a mess. Still, it was worse than she had imagined.“Are you here to laugh in my face?” Maria asked asked after scoffing.“Why would I do that, Aunt Maria?” Anastasia blandly sighed, “I’m here to see how you’re doing. Don’t worry. Uncle Fabian isn’t involved in the more severe crimes. My father will see what he can do to help.”Her words made Maria realize something that made her attitude change. “Your father came back?” She realized she had misspoken and rephrased herself, “No, I mean, is your dad at home now?”“He’s not home now, but he has safely returned. Don’t worry,” Anastasia said meaningfully.Maria’s gaze wavered. “Of course, I’m not worried. Your father is a capable man, isn’t he? I’m more worried about your uncle. His parents passed away when he was a kid

Anastasia knew her aunt had always been good to her. However, Anastasia realized it was no longer the case as Maria only treated her well to curry favors with Cameron.Rhea thought her mother treated Anastasia better, but Maria would only pretend to make a fuss over Anastasia whenever something terrible happened. Meanwhile, Maria would weep through the night if Rhea were to scrape her knee.Anastasia liked eating sweets when she was little. Despite her tendency to gain weight, Maria still bought them whenever she craved them. Simultaneously, although Rhea loved potato chips, Maria stopped her from eating them and instructed the cooks to make healthier snacks for her.Only after growing up did Anastasia realize indulgence without moderation was not good. Just like now, Rhea had done so many wrong things, yet Maria still tried to defend her and keep her secrets. Of course, Maria also wanted to make it up to her daughter, who, unfortunately, still felt neglected and unloved. As a re

Since Anastasia did not come alone, she could leave even if Maria refused to let her go. Nonetheless, Anastasia did not want things to end so poorly for her aunt.When Anastasia returned to the car, she turned back to look at the house. All her childhood memories flooded her mind as she recalled her time here.“Would you like to stay a little longer?” Cameron asked, sitting beside her.“No.” Anastasia shook her head, knowing she should not dwell on the past.“Let’s go,” Cameron instructed the driver.As the car moved away, Anastasia looked at the receding house and buried her head into her father’s shoulder, sobbing, “Why? Why did things have to turn out this way?”Cameron caressed her head and sighed. He could feel her pain. He only showed Fabian and Maria mercy for his daughter’s sake. If not, Maria would have ended up in a cold, damp holding cell like Fabian.“It’s just human nature,” he murmured.“I don’t believe it.” Anastasia looked up with teary eyes. “Uncle Fabian and A

In the past, Anastasia would get upset whenever her father left for work. Now, she nodded and said, “Go do your thing, Dad. I know they are important.”Cameron looked at her proudly when he noticed how sensible she had become. He said, “It’s okay. Let’s send you home first.”When they arrived, Cameron waited until his daughter entered the house and closed the door. However, as he was about to leave, Anastasia thought of something and turned back to run over, saying, “Dad!”Cameron saw her hesitating and asked warmly, “What is it?”“I haven’t heard from Lily for a long time. I know Alex said she had something important to do, but I can’t shake the feeling she might be in danger. Can you give them a hand, Dad?” Although Anastasia seldom asked anything from her dad, she was worried this time.Cameron looked at her profoundly and nodded. “Don’t worry. I’ll think of ways to help them. Don’t forget, they’re no ordinary people. I’m sure they’ll be fine.”Anastasia felt relieved and happ

“We locked her up in the backyard,” Alexander said, “Would you like to see her?”He thought Cameron would not want to do that after what she had done to him.After some thought, Cameron stood up and said, “I guess I should.”Soon after, they arrived at the outhouse, and Alexander unlocked the door to enter first. Although he used the area to imprison Rhea, it was clean and did not stink. He looked inside and saw Rhea sitting against the wall in a daze.She seemed discouraged for the past few days as if she had nothing to live for. However, she was lively when she tried talking terms with Alexander. It was like she had a split personality.Alexander approached her and stopped Cameron from getting too close. “Rhea.”She blinked and smiled slightly. “Why? Did you change your mind? If you’re not here to discuss working with me, fuck off! I don’t want to see you.”“Well, there’s someone who’d like to see you.” Alexander stepped aside.Rhea was disinterested in knowing who the visito
