Chapter 1003
Barbara and Britney couldn’t say a word. They felt that Fia was also a tragic figure in all of this.
Fia said, “All I can say is that if you can accept the worst possible outcome, we can all make that bet.”
Eileen took a step forward. “I’ll go with you!”
Barbara looked at the two of them, her vision blurred by tears. “Thank you.”
When Fia saw her like that, she suddenly remembered a certain Parker.
“Barbara… To be honest, you can speak with Director Parker about this. He might be able to suggest to us a better
way of doing this.”
“No!” Barbara said as she wiped the tears off her face. “I’d rather die than speak to him about this!”
Only she knew how torturous it was when she married into the Parkers.
She really didn’t want anything to do with them anymore!
When Fia saw Britney holding Barbara’s hand, she whispered, “I can see that you two mean a lot to each other. As
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe older sister, if you want to help your younger sister, you need to sacrifice something too, right?”
Barbara was stunned.
“We’ll be leaving.” Fia smiled at the two of them and dragged Eileen away.
It wasn’t long before Esme came back, limping, together with the Thomases’ maid and driver. “Where are they?
Where did they go?!” Esme said in a hiss. When she saw Barbara, she quickly went over and asked, “Barbara, did
you see two women here just now?”
Barbara nodded coldly. “I did.”
“Which direction did they go?”
Barbara pointed to herself and the real Britney. “Aren’t both of us women?”
The maid and the driver couldn’t say a word. Just now, the young miss said that two women attacked her. Was she
talking about Barbara?
“What happened to you?” Barbara asked despite knowing what happened as she scanned her.
Esme said, “I was hit by two women outside the gate. I heard them just now.”
“So, are you saying that we hit you?” Barbara asked.
“No, not you! I know the voice. It’s not you,” Esme said in agitation. She even wanted to continue the search.
Barbara stopped her and said, “Why would they come over to our home to hit you? Did cross anyone lately?”
you
Esme stared at Barbara numbly. She felt that Barbara had been acting very strangely after her
vacation.
“I told you. Dad will hate it if we start any trouble. If it goes out of hand, he will definitely investigate what you’ve
been doing lately, so think carefully if you’ve crossed anyone lately.” Esme shook her head, but the maid and the
driver agreed with Barbara.
“That’s right,” the maid said. “If you didn’t offend anyone, why would they come to hit here?”
you
The driver also nodded. “You really should think back if you’ve crossed anyone. If it’s someone with a powerful
background, you should go and apologize, or you’ll drag the entire household down with you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBarbara then slowly said, “That’s right. You know our dad. The only thing he cares about is profit. If what you did
affects his business, he’ll…”
“I know,” Esme cut her off. “It’s not going to be a problem. We were quite cordial before this, but we had an
argument about something minor. I won’t mingle with them after this.”
Barbara tried her best not to roll her eyes. Instead, she pretended to be concerned with her. ” You really don’t want
to tell Dad about it? If they were simply harassing you, he will stand by your side as long as they don’t have much
influence.”
Esme quickly shook her head and said, “It’s fine. I can deal with this myself.”
If things got out of hand and they found out that the person who hit her was Sophia and Eileen, there was no doubt
that the old man would drag her to apologize to Conrad and Fia instead!
No, that wouldn’t do!
“Are you sure? If you’re worried about Dad not helping you, I can,” Barbara yelled out at Esme as she limped away.
“It’s fine!” Esme dragged herself even more hastily.
The maid and the driver also quickly followed her home.
“You saw it too, didn’t you? She’s a very cunning woman,” Barbara squeezed Britney’s hand and whispered. “Why
don’t we do as Fia suggested and give it a try?”
