Edith and Lilian both fell silent their expressions grim
Stanley didn t say anything more
Z ayn pulled up in a sleek Rolls Royce Stanley got into the car and drove away
At the Crone family s estate the house was steeped in an eerie suffocating silence that hungover everything as Edith s at on the couch She had just smashed everything on the coffee table
Rare antique vases that she had treasured for years had crashed to the ground shattering into countless pieces These were some of Edith s most cherished possessions things that everyone else had to handle with the utmost

The second and third branches of the Crone family had arrived all of them gathered without exception
Edith still furious after breaking everything muttered bitterly What a bunch of trash Not one of you is better than Wendy
She grew up in the countryside yet she s a genius from Har field and she sDr C eyl an If she were my granddaughter I would have been the queen of Hove n dale by now
Now Wendy s riding over us and we can t fight back at all It s all because you people are useless
Harry and Archer had rushed back from the company They couldn t believe what they had just learned that Wendy was the famous Dr C eyl an

Harry still in disbelief muttered Looks like she is
As they thought back to how they had groveled before that fake Dr C eyl an they imagined how Wendy must have thought they were complete fools
Edith scowled What should we do now Wendy has her sights seton us She wants to unmask the one who killed her father and make them turn themselves in

Even after all these years Lilian Harry and Archer hadn t been able to forget that night
Wendy had asked them if they had ever experienced nightmares if Jerry had comeback to haunt the masa vengeful ghost
And the truth was they had
Archer spoke up his voice thick with guilt Jerry loved Wendy the most We thought if we sent her to the countryside we dbe rid of her and the Crone family would live in peace forever But she came back to avenge Jerry
Harry sighed regret heavy in his voice If Wendy really gets her revenge our whole family will fall This feud is impossible to resolve
