Kaitlyn blinked, slightly taken aback.

It wasn't that she felt there was anything wrong with Vivienne not repaying the money; after all, when she had helped them, she never expected anything in return.

But now, with Vivienne so earnestly declaring her intentions, Kaitlyn couldn't help but think Vivienne still looked down on them.

Pressing her lips together, Kaitlyn said, "I never wanted anything in return when I helped you back then."

Vivienne glanced at her and remained silent.

Then, pulling out her smartphone, Vivienne dialed a number, "Send over three cars. I'll text you the address."

Hearing this, Kaitlyn's face fell, "Ms. Hawthorn, what are you trying to do?"

Vivienne pocketed her phone. "I'm moving you to another place."

Clutching Amelia tightly to her, Kaitlyn eyed Vivienne with hostility, "Ms. Hawthorn, I've done nothing to offend you. Twelve years ago, I helped you. Why are you making things difficult for me now?"

Sadie and Julian, overhearing the conversation, quickly joined her side, glaring at Vivienne defensively.

Her husband, glaring helplessly at Vivienne, could only fret.

"Making things difficult for you?" Vivienne echoed, a hint of something crossing her mind.

"Sorry, I should have been clearer. I don't intend to repay the money; instead, I want to arrange a new place for you to live. This place is too cramped; it's not suitable for you."

Kaitlyn felt embarrassed, "I'm sorry, I thought you were..."
