Chapter 1212

Chloe gave a small smile, “Ms. Wendy going to such extremes shows how great Damon is.”

If he wasn’t that awesome, why would others be so desperate for him?

Carolina went to extremes for money. No one can deny, money was one hell of a good thing. Wasn’t the whole world hustling non–stop for money?

Wendy went to extremes for love. In this world, the only thing that could possibly rival money was love.

She got the best love in the world. How many people wished for this kind of love?

She should feel lucky that her only rival now was Wendy, because she didn’t have that many love rivals. Otherwise, all the women related to Damon… How many rivals would she have to face?

“You’re such a dork! Praising your husband like that, aren’t you afraid he’ll be shy?”

Rose crossed her arms over her chest, couldn’t help but tease. She sighed inwardly, Chloe was not the old Chloe anymore.

Chloe blushed, “I… I’m just telling the truth.”

“Alright! You’re all about the truth!” Rose raised her hands in surrender. The truth can really hurt.

Just as they finished speaking, Elizabeth’s phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, she paused for a moment, and her smile instantly faded.

The living room fell silent.

Elizabeth answered the call, her expression cold and her voice deliberately lowered, devoid of any emotion. “Hello.”

“It’s me, Grace.”

“I know. What’s up?”

Grace was silent for a while on the other end of the phone before she said, “I heard.. Wendy is injured, I’ve heard some rumors, and I just want to know what exactly happened.”

Elizabeth’s face was cold, a hint of sneer flashed in her eyes, but her tone was still polite and cold. “She is indeed injured, now recuperating at Presley’s. However, rumors are rumors, half–truths, all things have causes and effects. It’s not something that can be explained in a few words.”

Grace was silent again, laughed dryly after a while. “When Wendy left, I told Presley to take good care of her, I thought even if I didn’t say anything, you wouldn’t let Wendy be wronged in P City.

Wendy called me, said Presley insisted on taking her back to the Harper family for recovery, but you all left in anger. She also said you don’t like her anymore. She was crying during the call. She didn’t dare to reach you, so she could only call me to talk to you. You should go back too, Presley is too old to be alone, it’s so pitiful.

“Don’t ruin your family over some outsider you do not even know about. We couldn’t let some outsider sour the relationships at home.”

Her tone had no hint of accusation; in fact, it seemed very generous. However, no matter how they were heard, these words made people feel very uncomfortable. In her mind, Wendy came to the Harper family to recover, ended up driving everyone away. She had already talked to Presley earlier, and even if she hadn’t, Elizabeth should have naturally protected Wendy.

These accusations and sarcasm made Elizabeth very angry. “If Wendy wants to recover at the Harper family’s villa, then she should take care of herself. We have to go back anyway. It depends on when Wendy can recover.
