Chapter 1148

Barnaby and Nora were beside themselves when Cecil and Claire orchestrated their own kidnapping drama.

There was no way Barnaby and Nora could just stand by when it came to their daughter. They sold their house, their little corner store, everything they owned, just to gather enough cash to pay the ransom for their daughter.

But when they found out the whole ordeal was a sham, cooked up by their own daughter and son-in-law, they were livid. It was a devastation that they couldn't recover from.

Without the income from the Yeager family business, the couple was left without any means to support themselves.

They started reaching out to Claire's extended family for help, which only stirred up more trouble. The relatives were already furious, advising Claire to leave Cecil, but she wouldn't listen, pushing them away to the point of cutting ties.

Life became even harder, and Cecil's frustration often resulted in him lashing out at Claire, even when she was pregnant.

Then Maria was born, and tragically, she had a congenital illness. Cecil blamed Claire, and just days after giving birth, she found herself on the receiving end of his wrath once again.

Claire's relatives couldn't understand it. Was she bewitched? They knew she wasn't foolish, she must see how Cecil treated her!
