Afterward, Caroline led Tyler and Liora upstairs to wash up. It was necessary, given their contact

with dirty things.

However, Jade intercepted her, blocking her path. “Wait! What do you mean? What did my child do

wrong? Why did your rude child bully her?”

Caroline’s gaze turned icy, and she replied slowly, “Excuse me?”

Taken aback by Caroline’s stare, Jade stammered, “… I’ll say it again. I’m not afraid of you. Your

child-”

“It’s so noisy…”

Suddenly, Jamie’s voice echoed from downstairs.

Jade trembled with fear, falling silent immediately. She turned, picked up the crying Gigi, covered

her mouth, and hurriedly retreated into the washroom.

Jamie blinked in confusion, then tilted her head to observe Liora, whose eyes were red.

Concerned, Jamie approached her, her face showing irritation at the sight of saliva on Liora’s face.

“Who bullied you?”

Liora bit her lip and replied, “Madam, that woman bullied Tyler, Mommy, and me.”

Jamie stormed toward the restroom and slammed the door. ‘T’ll deal with you if you bully my

be swayed, she might have asked for more earlier.

14,000 dollars! Her family couldn’t earn that much even after a year of hard work.

After transferring the money to Jade, Caroline left with Jamie and the children. As they were on their

way to the restaurant, Liora asked, “Mommy, why did you give those demons 14,000 dollars?”

Caroline smiled and asked, “Isn’t it sometimes better to buy peace with money?”

“No, it’s not better at all!” Liora protested. “You shouldn’t have given them money!”

Tyler said, “Stop. Mommy knows what she’s doing

Liora did not believe it. She looked up at Caroline innocently. “Mommy, is what Tyler said true?”

Caroline nodded. “Yes, it’s true. Lia, don’t worry. I’m not such a silly person, am I?”

Liora was at ease. She threw herself into Caroline’s arms and stopped talking.
