The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1485

However, a quarter of an hour later, the servant informed her that no bracelet was found in the room.

Wrenn’s brows furrowed. Before she could speak, she heard the smug voice of Maggie.

“Well, what did I say? I knew this little brat was talking nonsense, but you wouldn’t believe me! Now you know it, don’t you? Did you really think that the child raised by that ungrateful Neera would be any good? Let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t trust her so blindly. She’s nothing but an ingrate, even ignoring her adoptive parents who have been kind to her, let alone treating others. All this talk about being sensible, gracious, gentle, and virtuous is all a show for you!”

Penny’s eyes instantly welled up with tears, and she stomped her foot in frustration.

“My mommy is not that kind of person! She’s the best woman in the whole world, and I won’t let you slander her!”

Sammy and Harvey clenched their tiny fists tightly, brimming with anger, wishing they could charge forward.

Their good upbringing, however, prevented them from making such a rude gesture.

Even if they were seething with hatred, they still upheld the finest manners they were taught at home.

Yet, Maggie was aggressively domineering, wearing the smug expression of a petty person who had come into power, which was truly nauseating.

“Slander? Who exactly is slandering whom? If it weren’t for your lies, little brat, things wouldn’t have escalated, making everyone uncomfortable. I haven’t even blamed you yet, but you sure know how to make a fuss, accusing me of stealing your bracelet. How ridiculous!”

After she finished speaking, she looked up again at Wrenn.

“So, Mrs. Beauvort, you should believe us now, shouldn’t you? After today’s incident, don’t you think you owe us a sincere apology? After all, we were wrongfully accused, nearly slandered as thieves by your grandchildren. We can’t bear such an injustice! Also, you did promise us earlier that if nothing was found, we could name our terms as compensation. So, if we do ask for something, you will agree to it, won’t you?”

Wrenn looked at the greed that was so obvious on her face, her expression growing increasingly solemn.
