From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent

Chapter 540

Seeing Rebecca so wracked with guilt, even blaming herself entirely for Sandra's death, Daniel's heart ached for her.

He had never met anyone as kindhearted as Rebecca.

And yet, everyone seemed to have misunderstood her.

Especially Karen.

Rebecca was supposed to be her future granddaughter-in-law!

Thinking back to Karen's behavior last time, Daniel felt only cold disappointment.

"It's my fault! It's all my fault! Daniel, don't try to comfort me!" Rebecca sobbed uncontrollably. "If only I'd taken better care of my mom! She was always so good to me—I don't deserve to be her daughter! I don't deserve any of it!"

Daniel held Rebecca tightly. "Rebecca, please don't do this to yourself. If your mother could see you now, she wouldn't be at peace, even in the afterlife."

Now Sandra was gone, Daly was still in prison, and Rebecca had no one left in this world to lean on.

He had to find a way-fast-to see Rebecca married to Sherman.

Only Sherman could give her the support she needed now.

With that in mind, Daniel said, "Rebecca, you're not alone. You have me, and you have Sherman. I promise, I'll find a way to clear up the misunderstandings between you and him."

Rebecca buried her face in Daniel's chest, a small, triumphant smile tugging at the corners of her lips.

Daniel was Sherman's closest friend. Sherman trusted him implicitly, and with Daniel's promise, Rebecca finally felt reassured.
