NovelEndChapter 463:
Once the call ended, Melany halted mid-reach for her meal and turned her attention to Carrie. “What's the
trouble? | overheard something about Lise transferring funds to your housekeeper’s son. Can you fillin?”
With her skilled insight from years as the Norris family matriarch, Melany quickly pieced together the essence of
the situation.
Elsewhere, not far from Bayview Villa, a Mercedes-Benz business sedan stood parked along the roadside. Inside,
Daxton finished his phone conversation and began idly tapping on his device.
Shrouded in the car's shadows, his expression was obscured, replacing his typically affable manner with an air of
aloofness and reserve.
The man seated next to him inquired, “Mr. Garcia, you didn’t inform Ms. Campbell previously, so what prompted
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou to reach out to her now? With Kristopher’s grandparents there, they're bound to defend him.”
A cold smile crept across Daxton’s face. “Without knowledge, they remain on the edge. It's crucial that they
understand the full picture, as they're likely to support Kristopher when it matters most. This alignment ensures
that if things fall apart again, Carrie will have no soft corners to retreat to. She tends to be overly influenced by
what she perceives as family loyalty.”
His companion expressed confusion. “But they’ve just mended things.”
“Isnt it too soon for another fallout?”
Daxton met his gaze, laden with implication, yet remained silent. He flicked through his phone and chuckled at
an embarrassing snapshot of Carrie, caught vomiting on the set.
To the astonished elderly couple, Carrie laid out the plot. Lise had not only paid the housekeeper to spy but also
enlisted Emito orchestrate a smear campaign against her with online mercenaries.
A gasp escaped Melany, her features twisted in disbelief. “I can’t believe Lise would stoop so low! | always knew
she wasn’t the nicest, but this is downright wicked.”
Without a word, Shawn's expression darkened, his lips tightly sealed.
Noticing their reluctance to side with Kristopher, Carrie reassured them. “There's no need to worry anymore. I've
let the housekeeper go.”
Shawn added firmly, “Moreover, I'll ensure her family is relocated far from Orkset, never to return.”
Just then, the door swung open as Kristopher entered. Casting a glance at those gathered at the dining table, he
teased, “What, no one thought to wait for me?”
Shawn faced him with a hard gaze. “Are you still planning to join us for dinner?”
Pausing, Kristopher slipped into the slippers offered by a servant, raising an eyebrow. “Really now, what have |
done to be denied dinner?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStanding by Carrie, Melany chimed in, “So, when do you plan on sending Lise away?”
As he approached, Kristopher explained casually, “I told you both last night about her heart issue; she needs
extra care right now.” He had hoped his grandparents would relay his message with kindness, yet here they
were, confronting him directly.
Melany’s voice was cold as she dropped her fork with a clink. “What does her heart problem have to do with
you? Shouldn't you be more concerned about your wife, especially if you want to start a family?”
