Chapter 45

somewhere secluded to avoid detection. That means there will be moments when our vision is blurred. Our best shot is to find our target in the changing room. Pay extra attention because we’ll be monitoring from many angles, and I might miss something if I work on my own.”Winnie was working on the screen of her phone at that time, and Jacinta was working hard to decipher what Winnie was saying.“Okay, so we have three phones with us. When the time is right, all I have to do is pay attention to the blue one, right?” asked Jacinta. “That’s right, Granny.”“Is there anything else I need to note? Nothing will go wrong, right?”“The probability of anything going wrong is low because the signal is strong.”“That’s good to know,” murmured Jacinta. She thought about it for a minute before adding, “I heard what Xavier’s father said earlier. He meant to say that the two of you will be divorced soon, right? Oh, that is wonderful news. I just hope everything goes smoothly later.”“Don’t worry, Granny.” Winnie gently held her grandmother’s hand. “It doesn’t matter even if things don’t go smoothly. I will still leave the Fairchild family.”A little after the party was over, the two of them were released and taken to another room.Both Xavier and Benjamin were already inside that room when they went over.The two ladies had just sat down when Hamish and Yara made their way there.Noticing how upset both Xavier and Benjamin were, they admitted defeat before anyone said anything.Hamish went straight to Winnie and grabbed her arm.“Winnie Garland, what is going on here?

The two of you killed my daughter all those years ago, and now you’re hurting my granddaughter! You don’t get to get away with everything. I’m going to kill you for this.”Jacinta’s eyes turned bloodshot with tears when she thought about her precious daughter who had died terribly all those years ago. She couldn’t find the right weapon then, so she grabbed her shoe and tossed it at Hamish right away.Hamish couldn’t move away in time, and the sole of her shoe smacked right onto his face and almost made his nose bleed.“You crazy old woman! Your daughter died of an illness. What does that have to do with me? Don’t assume that I will show you mercy just because you’re old.”“Enough!” shouted Benjamin. He had no time to listen to them. “Deal with your family’s drama at your own time and in your own place. My time is precious, and I’d like to get this over with in ten minutes.”Benjamin’s aura was strong, and it prompted Hamish to shut up. “O-Okay, just speak freely. We’re listening.”“Good, then take your daughter home tonight. The Fairchild family will not accept her as one of our own.”Hamish had
