Chapter 98

Stella wished those three shameless relatives would never come crawling back. She snapped, “Remember your words today, all three of you. If you ever go back on them and come begging to us, you’ll be worse than a snake in the grass!”

Anthea shot back a look, her eyes dark and fathomless. “What goes around, comes around. Don’t forget the show you put on today! Don’t descend to the level of a weasel!”

Stella snorted disdainfully.

They would come begging to her? A lowlife only fit for the basement!

Carole made it clear she wanted to cut ties, but neither she nor the Yeager family were worried. They knew Carole would soon regret her actions. Within a month, she’d be back on her knees.

Gemma turned to Elaine, saying, “Sweetie, if that rotten apple comes back begging, don’t you dare forgive her so easily! We’ll only consider it after Irvin gives her the nod.”

Elaine nodded, “I know, Mom.”

Anthea booked a ride on her phone.
