Chapter 700

On the other end of the phone, when Frank heard Summer’s words, his heart sank

A sinister chill seemed to pass through the signal

Summer said, “How long do you think you can keep acting so smug? I’m facing the consequences of my actions, but aren’t you facing yours too?”

“No one escapes the consequences of what they’ve done?”

“Shut your mouth!” Frank roared over the phone, furious at her words.

Everything the Holland family was suffering now did feel exactly like retribution, just as she had said.

Summer said, “You really have some nerve. You kept telling me to handle Evan’s revenge against the Holland family, and you kept telling me to save the child.”

“You used that child to scheme against the Wright family, and you used him to scheme against me too. You’re vicious beyond belief…”

The thought of how she had begged Stella again and again for that child made Summer’s chest tighten with rage.

She had even knelt to Stella for that child.

Summer hung up.

Tears kept sliding down her face.

The word “retribution” kept spilling from her lips.

Before, she had never believed in it.

She had never believed in something like retribution.

But now, she did.

Now, she truly believed it.

In this world, retribution really did exist.

“Yes. This is retribution.” Dora’s voice sounded from not far behind her.

Summer turned back and looked at Dora, her chest tightening.

At that moment, Dora’s eyes held a satisfaction Summer had never seen before.

Clearly, Dora had heard everything Summer had said to Frank just now.

Now, endless delight flashed in Dora’s eyes.

“That child actually wasn’t yours Hahahaha Hahahaha

Her laughter pierced Summer’s heart

“What are you laughing at? He used that child to scheme against you too.”

“He did scheme against us. But at least we didn’t lose to Frank”

They had lost to Stella. That was something Dora had to admit.

But Summer was different

“You’re different. You lost to a scumbag. He used you, schemed against you, and you still treated him like a treasure.”

Frank had wanted to use that child to scheme against the entire Wright family, but had he succeeded?

No.

After Stella interfered, every plan Frank had against the Wright family had failed.

So they had lost to Stella.

Summer was different.

She had truly been schemed against by a man until she lost everything.

In the end, even the child was not hers.

“Tell me, are you really that stupid? Or what?You didn’t even know whether the child was actually yours!”

Summer said nothing.

Her face had already been pale, and after Dora’s ridicule, it turned almost transparent.

Dora said, “No one escapes the consequences of their actions. It just takes time.”

For years, Dora had never believed in retribution.

She had never imagined that her own son, Evan, would personally bring that woman’s daughter back.

And he had insisted on marrying her too.

“A shameless woman like you deserves an ending like this.” Dora’s words became harsher and harsher.

Summer trembled with rage.

But now, because of the guilt she felt toward Steven, she ultimately said nothing more to Dora.

Back in the basement, although Dora had also suffered a blow today, her expression was clearly much

better now.

Fiona asked, “Did something good happen?”

At a time like this, Dora actually had a smile on her face. That was truly rare.

Thinking about it carefully, how long had it been since they had smiled?

Probably from the moment Stella entered the Wright estate, all that torment had made them unable to smile again.

But now there was a smile on Dora’s face.

At a glance, it was obvious that something good had happened.
