Katrina suddenly raised her head to look at Karina with wide eyes. "What nonsense are you talking about? It was you who met Aidan through me and Max!"

Because of that, she felt uncomfortable just thinking about it!

If only she prevented Karina from meeting Aidan back then!

If Karina and Aidan had never met, Karina would have had no chance to marry Aidan, then among her family, she would be the only one who married into a wealthy family and be in the limelight.

Instead, she was now trampled by Karina.

"Yes, you are right. It's because of you and Max that I met Aidan," Karina said. "But when you and Max were in love, your father-in-law despised your family background and did not agree to your marriage with Max. The reason why he changed his mind later was that he knew I was about to get engaged to Aidan. It's true that I met Aidan through you and Max, but it is also because I am Aidan's fiancée that you are accepted into the Cavendish family. If you're adamant about taking credit, then we've been in a mutually beneficial relationship. I never owed you anything, but you stole my son heartlessly. Listen up, Katrina. Someone as evil as you will suffer from karma!"

"No… That's not what happened… That's not…" Katrina looked at Victor subconsciously while Karina's gaze also followed.

Being stared at, Victor felt awkward.

If he admitted that Karina's words were true, it would seem that he was too materialistic.

However, now that Karina was in a rage and full of resentment against their family, he dared not lie, afraid of agitating her even more.

Without a choice, he replied in embarrassment, "Yes, that's right. I didn't agree with the marriage between you and Max at first, but after hearing the Whitfields agreeing to Karina and Aidan's marriage, I thought the daughters of the Pearsons must have been superior in some aspects, or the Whitfields wouldn't have agreed to their marriage. Because of that, I accepted the marriage between you and Max."

What he said sounded serious and made sense, but anyone who was aware of the situation knew that what he said about agreeing to the marriage was that the daughters of the Pearson family were superior was just an excuse for him to cover up his embarrassment.

The actual reason was that he wanted to take advantage of the relationship between Katrina and Karina to get the Whitfield family's attention.
Katrina suddanly raisad har haad to look at Karina with wida ayas. "What nonsansa ara you talking about? It was you who mat Aidan through ma and Max!"

Bacausa of that, sha falt uncomfortabla just thinking about it!

If only sha pravantad Karina from maating Aidan back than!

If Karina and Aidan had navar mat, Karina would hava had no chanca to marry Aidan, than among har family, sha would ba tha only ona who marriad into a waalthy family and ba in tha limalight.

Instaad, sha was now tramplad by Karina.

"Yas, you ara right. It's bacausa of you and Max that I mat Aidan," Karina said. "But whan you and Max wara in lova, your fathar-in-law daspisad your family background and did not agraa to your marriaga with Max. Tha raason why ha changad his mind latar was that ha knaw I was about to gat angagad to Aidan. It's trua that I mat Aidan through you and Max, but it is also bacausa I am Aidan's fiancéa that you ara accaptad into tha Cavandish family. If you'ra adamant about taking cradit, than wa'va baan in a mutually banaficial ralationship. I navar owad you anything, but you stola my son haartlassly. Listan up, Katrina. Somaona as avil as you will suffar from karma!"

"No… That's not what happanad… That's not…" Katrina lookad at Victor subconsciously whila Karina's gaza also followad.

Baing starad at, Victor falt awkward.

If ha admittad that Karina's words wara trua, it would saam that ha was too matarialistic.

Howavar, now that Karina was in a raga and full of rasantmant against thair family, ha darad not lia, afraid of agitating har avan mora.

Without a choica, ha rapliad in ambarrassmant, "Yas, that's right. I didn't agraa with tha marriaga batwaan you and Max at first, but aftar haaring tha Whitfialds agraaing to Karina and Aidan's marriaga, I thought tha daughtars of tha Paarsons must hava baan suparior in soma aspacts, or tha Whitfialds wouldn't hava agraad to thair marriaga. Bacausa of that, I accaptad tha marriaga batwaan you and Max."

What ha said soundad sarious and mada sansa, but anyona who was awara of tha situation knaw that what ha said about agraaing to tha marriaga was that tha daughtars of tha Paarson family wara suparior was just an axcusa for him to covar up his ambarrassmant.

Tha actual raason was that ha wantad to taka advantaga of tha ralationship batwaan Katrina and Karina to gat tha Whitfiald family's attantion.

Katrina never knew about the truth.

All this while, she hated Karina for stepping on her and climbing upward. She was the one who racked her brains to meet a wealthy heir, but Karina obtained more benefits than she did.

After all these years, she still felt indignant at the thought. She hated Karina to the bones.

Unfortunately, she failed to realize that not only Karina had benefited from her, but she had also benefited from Karina.

If it wasn't for Karina who met Aidan and had Aidan falling head over heels for her, which eventually led to their marriage, she would never have had the chance to marry Max.

Karina never owed her. Now, it seemed that her resentment over the years was a joke.

The sudden truth was like a hammer that hit her head harshly, making her dizzy, and putting her mind in chaos.

Why?

Why was this the truth?

If only she had known the truth early on.

If she had known the truth long ago, her resentment against Karina would not have been so great over the years. Back then, she might not have been bewitched and made the decision to exchange her daughter for Karina's son…

She knelt at Karina's feet and cried bitterly.

Now that the matter had been made clear, Aidan no longer saw the need to stay. With that, he asked Karina, "Shall we go home now?"

Nodding her head, she held Martin's hand and shot a cold glance at Victor. "Remember. This is my son. He has nothing to do with your family anymore!"

"Of course! I was the one who was blind and allowed my eldest son to marry a woman with a wicked heart. Our family has wronged you. I'll definitely make my son apologize to you properly later!" Victor had been sweating profusely by now as he fervently apologized to Karina.

Now that the situation had evolved to this point, he had no choice. He didn't know how to calm the anger of the Whitfields and restore the situation.

He wasn't aware of what Katrina did, but who made Katrina the daughter-in-law of their Cavendish family?

He was just unlucky after blindly letting his son marry a woman like Katrina and allowing her to cause chaos.

Now, he only hoped that the Whitfields would be magnanimous and hold only Katrina responsible after Max divorced her. He wished that the matter would not implicate the entire Cavendish family.

While sending the Whitfields off, he bowed and kept his head low.

Ever since he had gotten old, he had never been so humble in front of others.
