    Chapter 524 All of This Is Because of Tilda


    nished


    “I actually came out to take Reba for a walk, hoping it might cheer her up a bit–and <b>maybe </b>K could helpfort her.


    “But she’s like this now.”


    Daphne’s eyes went red; she started to tear up.


    ir lowered her voice. “Are the rumors true? Reba offended Abram, so they cut off her fingers?<b>” </b>


    “It’s true. You know how strict that old man is. When he says something, it’s final. Even his own grandchildren get punished if they break the rules.


    “In his eyes, there’s no sentimental blood–tie–only value. People are just things to be measured.


    “And it didn’t stop there. Cutting off Reba’s fingers ruined her spirit. She spent months in aa in the hospital.


    “He did not visit her. When she woke up, they were going to send her out of the country immediately. I begged and begged until they agreed to let her stay through the holidays before they sent her away.”


    “Is it that bad?”


    ir’s eyes widened.


    ir had heard Reba was hospitalized and called Daphne to confirm.


    Daphne had been too distraught to answer properly and hung up.


    Later, when the Preston incident happened, ir texted Daphne again and got no reply.


    Today, Daphne brought Reba along to invite ir and K out for some beauty treatments, which surprised ir when she got the


    message.


    With her own bad moodtely and the heavy atmosphere at home, she happily agreed to go with K.


    Beforeing, ir still held onto a bit of hope, thinking maybe she had misunderstood, but reality turned out to be far more tragic.


    K, who seemed to know something, sucked in a sharp breath and said, “Oh my God, that’s awful, Mrs. Bell. What can we do? Is there any way to save Reba? I feel so bad. I feel sick just

    thinking about it.”


    Finished


    Daphne shook her head. “There’s nothing we can do. The old man has spoken. Who can overturn him? Even my son was implicated. Jude got something on him and stripped him of branchpany control. He’s a shell of a man now, depressed and listless<b>.</b><b>” </b>


    “Even Jude turned out like that…”


    No wonder K had been thinking about Prestontely.


    He had not contacted her in a long time.


    Even though K’s heart had started stirring again after Tobia appeared, neither Jude nor Tobiaspared to Preston in her mind–at least not until she actually had them.


    K had tried contacting Preston several times, only to receive perfunctory replies hourster, which infuriated her.


    However, with so many problems on her te–e, patchy hair loss–she needed treatment and could not risk meeting Preston in that state.


    K had heard, not from Preston, that he had been removed from his position. That news sparked small, resentful calctions–a belief that Preston, aside from his legitimate Bell bloodline, did not actually measure up to Jude or Tobias.


    He was, at best, a mid–level sympathizer.


    “Daphne, you … Take care. I believe this will pass. This hardship is only temporary.” ir tried tofort her, unsure what else to say.


    “My family used to be fine. My children were the pride of the family–perfect heirs and the apple of our eye. All of this is because of Tilda. If not for that damned Tilda, my family wouldn’t be like this!” <fn10d4> Checktest chapters at find{n}ovel</fn10d4>


    At the mention of Tilda, murderous intent shed across Daphne’s face. Her knuckles whitened as she dug her nails into her palm–pain that could not bring back reason.


    “Tilda? Daphne, what are you talking about?”


    ir was confused. How did this involve Tilda?


    “You don’t know? It’s all because of that bitch Tilda…


    Daphne caught herself. “Anyway, it’s the holidays. I don’t want to talk about it now. But it’ll be dealt with soon.”


    Daphne did not hesitate to air her hatred in front of ir.

    Finished


    After all, Tilda and the Jensons were totally estranged now, and so much had happened since.


    Daphne presumed the family must hate Tilda with a passion.


    What she did not know was the Jensons‘ current collective attitude toward Tilda.


    A few days ago, Skin Organization contacted Daphne, asking her to prepare 150 million to buy Tilda’s life.


    One hundred fifty million–a number a normal person could never dream of in ten lifetimes.
