Chapter 1004
Britney looked away. “What if Conrad wants to help Esme? What should we do?”
Barbara recalled Fia’s suggestion. “Then we’ll ask Finn for help! The Parkers owe me, and I’ll tell him everything! If
he still has a heart, he will help us!”
Britney shook her head. “Barbara, I don’t want to drag you into this.”
Barbara wrapped her arms around her. “You’re not dragging me into anything. That woman knows how to get on
our parents’ good side. If this continues, she’ll eventually take over everything that our family owns. I can’t let that
happen!”
When Britney thought about her father, she asked, “Dad… Didn’t hesitate in accepting her as me at all?”
“Ha! It’ll be weird if he grew suspicious at all. He wished both of us would put profit first even since he was little.
Esme… She suits his every expectation!” As Barbara said that, she logged into her home’s security system through
her phone and deleted the footage without raising any alarm.
Around nine at night, Esme remained awake waiting for Mr. Thomas to return home.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen he got home, she limped toward him to help him take his briefcase.
“Why are you home so late tonight, Dad? Are you tired?”
“You’re the best, unlike Barbara. She has never been this considerate!”
After Mr. Thomas sat down, Esme limped away in front of him.
“Dad, you must be tired. Do you want me to give you a massage?”
“It’s fine. What’s with your legs?” he asked.
“When I was coming home earlier tonight and stopped my car, someone covered my head. with a bag and dragged
me into the bushes and hit me,” Esme said pitifully.
Mr. Thomas was angered. “What is the meaning of this?! I’ll check and see who did that!”
He immediately took out his phone and used the app to log into the residence’s security system. He muttered,
“Strange… Why is footage around eight at night gone?”
Esme pretended to be shocked and said, “What happened? Don’t tell me they could event access our home’s
security system?”
Mr. Thomas was immediately suspicious of Barbara. ‘Why did she do that?’
Didn’t she love her sister the most?
What was the reason behind her doing this?
When Esme saw that everything was going as planned, she slowly said, “Dad, there’s something I need to tell you.
Promise me you won’t be mad.”
He nodded. “I promise.”
“Didn’t Barbara bring back a strange woman? Mom was unhappy so she said something to her, and she then
moved out together with that woman.
Esme was thinking that if she couldn’t make Mr. Thomas act against Fia because Conrad was behind her, then she
would make him act against Barbara!
Once he was completely disappointed in Barbara, she would be able to take control of the entire Thomas estate!
“Why did she move out with that woman?” Mr. Thomas became irritated when he thought of his daughter who
would argue against him at every turn. “Did we ever starve her?!”
“Dad, have you ever heard of lesbians?” Esme carefully said to him.
Mr. Thomas’s eyes opened wide. “I’ll kill her myself if she’s one of those people!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Dad, Barbara always has her own opinion. Maybe we can just let her do what she wants this time?”
“Never!” Mr. Thomas stood up and immediately ran upstairs to find his wife.
Mrs. Thomas was changing the bed sheets in Esme’s room. When she saw her husband walking over with a sour
face, she asked, “What happened? Things didn’t go well at work?” “It’s your daughter!” Mr. Thomas grabbed a
pillow and threw it at her.
“What did I do?” Mrs. Thomas said, stunned.
“Tell her to come back right now! I was wondering why she wanted a divorce from Finn after marrying him! That
she could abandon everything the Parkers had to offer so easily! To think that she likes women all along… This is so
shameful!”
Mrs. Thomas felt her heart sink. “How did you even end up with such a ridiculous conclusion?” “Ridiculous? Didn’t
you find it strange that she brought that woman back? She doesn’t even love her sister as much anymore! She’s
completely blinded by her own lust!”
Originally, Mrs. Thomas didn’t believe him. But she began to panic after hearing what her husband had said.
“I’ll call Barbara and ask her about it.”
Mr. Thomas nodded. “Tell her to come back! If she’s not willing to listen, tell her to break away from our family
herself!”
