Chapter 227 Back To The House

One of the bodyguards removed his coat and handed it over to the startled Stephanie. She immediately put it on and continued shivering in fear. No longer was she the arrogant heiress of the Clintons she had always been.

Oscar marched over and glared at her in the eyes. He instructed in a callous tone, “Get up.”

She raised her head and catapulted in Oscar’s direction the moment she saw him. Seconds after she reached him, she wrapped her arms around him and gasped out her reply, “Oscar, where have you been? I was afraid they would take me out for real! You should’ve rushed here to take them out sooner!”

It was then Stephanie found out she couldn’t live without her family’s support. Apart from her family members, no one would tolerate her and her arrogant attitude. None of them would listen to her, let alone do her a favor when she wasn’t affiliated with the Clintons. Throughout her life, she had spent most of her time splurging instead of generating a stable source of income. In fact, she thought working was merely a waste of her time. Unfortunately, when she was away from home, she found out she couldn’t even make a living to sustain her lifestyle.

Over the past few weeks, she approached her friends for their aids. However, when they found out she was no longer affiliated with the Clintons, they turned her down without a second thought. It was the same when she approached Cassie. Cassie transferred a hundred thousand to Amelia and told Amelia to try harder if she wished to return to her family members.

When she made a trip back to the Clinton residence, the guards pretended as if they weren’t aware of her identity. In spite of the harsh remarks she made, they stopped her from making her way into the residence. She tried camping near the residence in an attempt to approach her parents. However, the guards would chase her away without showing her any mercy.

As someone who had been living a carefree life ever since the day she was born, the past few weeks were the darkest period of her life. It was then she figured out she was but a nobody if she wasn’t a member of the Clintons. To be precise, she was inferior to those from a low-income family.

Oscar pushed Stephanie away with all his might and bellowed, “Suck up your tears! Otherwise, I’ll leave at once!”

Stephanie gaped at her brother’s warning and went dead silent as instructed after a short while. Afraid of getting on his nerves, she dared not try anything silly.

He deadpanned his questions, “Have they done anything silly?”

Shaking her head, she answered his query with her lips pursed, “N-No… It’s thanks to the bodyguards who have rushed over in the nick of time! Otherwise, they might have long gotten their hands on me! Oscar, I’m your only sister! You need to avenge me!”

Oscar’s disappointment was written all over his scrunched-up face. He couldn’t believe she wouldn’t stop seeking revenge even when she was in such a pathetic state.

He asked in return, “Since you’re the mastermind who has tried to bring upon my wife and son’s demise, am I supposed to avenge them as well?”

Stephanie was rendered speechless by her brother’s question.

Meanwhile, Olivia, who was in the car, couldn’t take it anymore. She handed over Tony to Amelia and said, “Amelia, stay here with Tony! We’ll head over and check on Stephanie!”
