Chapter 373: Settling the Account for the Death of My Grandmother

Jasper furrowed his brows, his expression darkening. It seemed inevitable that Jared and Tina were determined to resolve things today. He narrowed his eyes, lowering his voice, "Tina, Jared, your grandmother may have been provoked today, and Tina has been wronged these past days. Let's not speak of what happened before. From now on, I will send her to a retreat to ensure she is no longer mistreated in this household."

Juliet smirked to herself. Who was mistreating Tina? Ultimately, wasn't it just him and that illegitimate daughter? The younger generation, including herself, got along well with Tina.

Tina lifted her gaze, her cool eyes briefly meeting Jasper's. She spoke calmly, "Your promises are worthless. Mrs. Reed wants to settle accounts, so let's clear them all at once, to avoid any claims that I took advantage of the Reed family!" Jasper's eyes narrowed, a dangerous look crossing his face. "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Tina smiled, "Yes."

Jasper met her gaze, her eyes seemingly piercing through everything, which unsettled him. He was about to speak when Tina looked away, stating indifferently, "Uncle, I'm hungry." "Alright," Jared said softly, "let's clear this account and then go eat."

Lily observed Jared and Tina behaving as if no one else mattered, which infuriated her. Yet, a foreboding feeling lingered in her heart; speaking up might just implicate herself. Especially since Jared had just mentioned that the police were still waiting outside. Although she was confident she hadn't done anything illegal, who knew if Tina might frame her? She knew she had to be cautious.

She definitely did not want to visit the police station again.

"Mrs. Reed," Jared's voice suddenly turned icy as he looked at Annabelle with eyes sharp as arrows, his voice as cold as frost, "let's now settle the account for you killing my grandmother, and for the care of her three friends and six nannies!" Silence fell so heavily that even the sound of the wind was distinctly audible.
