Chapter 281 It’s Right Not to Have Deep Friendships,Coolest Girl in Town
By placing an elder under house arrest and blatantly handling a helpless, weak elderly person without even bothering to put up a pretense, Faye had turned this big, gloomy mansion into her territory where she did as she pleased. “Looks like you don’t interact with elderly very often, Miss Sinclair,” Faye pointed out calmly. “So what if it’s true?” Elise argued, frowning slightly. Very subtly, she raised her brows while the corners of her lips drooped. With her alluring eyes brimming with confidence, she said, “Since that’s the case, you definitely don’t know how the elderly in their seventies act like a child.

At her age, Grandma is most likely to get careless. If there’s no one to take care of her and she loses her way or some accident happens to her, who could bear this responsibility?” Her explanation got Elise speechless. It was said that not even a fair judge could settle family affairs, and family disputes were the trickiest cases which couldn’t be simply lorded by people on the sidelines. If Elise stood on moral grounds and started criticizing Faye, it was highly possible that she would end up with a bunch of accusations. On the other hand, she couldn’t stand by and watch as an elderly person was pushed around.

“Of course I believe that your intentions are kind, Miss Anderson. However, there are many examples in this world where bad actions turned out of good intentions, and I wonder how much you know about the penalty for abuse.” With the same look in her eyes, Elise looked Faye in the eyes so that the latter would know how it felt to have a taste of her own medicine. Without waiting for Faye to open her mouth, Elise added, “Going against an elderly person’s will, putting her in confinement, restricting her freedom, inflicting mental abuse, etc…

Taking all these into consideration, it can easily end up being a two-year sentence. Miss Anderson, do be careful.” With the most innocent tone, Elise had uttered the most threatening words. The look on Faye’s face kept changing, and she didn’t look pleased at all. Narrowing her almond-shaped eyes, she surveyed Elise undisguisedly. Rowena hit the nail in the head, she thought. This is a university student without any ideas of the world. It’s a small matter to be slapped with a lawsuit, but if word got out that I’m confining two old women, it’ll definitely affect the plan I’ve painstakingly carried out for years.

After giving her an icy stare, Bertha then stole a peek at Elise before lifting her foot, turning around, and walking back into the house. With one step at a time, her pace was steady, and even though it was just from the back, Elise saw the figure of a strong woman in her youth. Finally, Faye urged Elise on purpose after catching her staring at Bertha for a while, “Miss Sinclair, please leave if there’s nothing else. I have other matters to attend to and
