Chapter 60

Sarah tried hard to persuade Wilma. After all, her father and two brothers had promised her that they would give her 6,000 dollars out of the 60,000 dollars.

The 6,000 dollars was equivalent to her one–year salary!

However, no matter what Sarah and Luke said, Wilma did not agree with them. In the end, Sarah said ruthlessly, “Daniel and Edward said that if this deal went off because of you, they’d blame you for life if Henry and Richard couldn’t afford to buy a house or marry a wife!”

Wilma was angry and anxious. “You guys… Do you guys have any conscience? Have you forgotten how Rosalie treated us before?”

Sarah smiled. “Mom, let the past be the past. We should focus on the present. You can’t risk all of us and ruin the future of the younger generations just for her. Besides, Rosalie is part of the reason why Henry and Richard can’t find themselves a wife. A girl from a good family will never be willing to get married to them after hearing that one of our family members was once a prisoner! If Henry and Richard don’t have a marital home, it would be even more impossible for them to get married.”

Wilma gritted his teeth for a while. Then, she looked at her third daughter with tearful eyes. “W–Won’t you feel ashamed in front of your sister?”

Sarah did not take the question seriously. As Rosalie’s mother had been dead for so many years, Sarah’s affection toward her had diminished as time flew by. Furthermore, money was more practical than the relationship between her and her late sister.

Rosalie was surrounded by several cousins in the front hall. Fiona Haberly, her elder cousin said with a faint smile while snacking, “Grandpa said that he has asked your father about you. Your father said that you are just a sweeper now. Is it true?”

Fiona was only one year older than Rosalie. However, when they were younger, Fiona would be downgraded when people compared her to Rosalie. Rosalie was a top student since young. On the other hand, Fiona could not even get into any university. Eventually, she went to work after graduating from high school and then married a blacksmith in the neighboring town.

At that time, Zachary, the son of a wealthy family, was still Rosalie’s boyfriend. Thus, when Fiona compared her husband to Zachary, she would feel defeated and ashamed.

Upon seeing Rosalie facing her downfall, Fiona naturally wanted to belittle her.
