From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent

Chapter 541

"Oh." Adah's tone was flat, almost dismissive.

She still remembered all too well the day she and Karen had gone to the Morris family to discuss the engagement. Daly and Sandra had teamed up to humiliate both her and Karen, showing them nothing but contempt.

Even now, whenever Adah thought back on that day, her teeth clenched with anger. Latham had treated the Morris family so well in those days. And how had they repaid him? By stabbing him in the back, showing no loyalty or gratitude whatsoever.

So Sandra's death from carbon monoxide poisoning? Adah couldn't help but feel it was nothing less than she deserved.

Really?

Daniel was stunned by how indifferent Adah's reaction was. He'd never imagined she could be so cold-blooded. The dead should be respected, after all. Sandra was gone, and yet Adah didn't even flinch. How could she be so heartless, especially when Rebecca had always looked out for the Christensen family?

No conscience. Absolutely no conscience!

Daniel couldn't hold back his anger any longer. "Adah! How can you be so callous? No matter what happened, Rebecca is still Sherman's fiancée! Now her mother's dead, and you're not even the least bit upset? Not even sad?"

Adah was known for her gentle temperament, but hearing this, she snapped. "That's what they deserve! It's karma!"

Just then, Karen came downstairs. Seeing Adah so worked up, she turned to the maid beside her. "What's going on? Who was on the phone?"
