Chapter 672


    Chapter 672 Utterly Useless


    Caroline asked, “What do you want?”

    “It’s quite simple. I’ll grant you freedom if you manage to persuade Neil to return,” Grayson replied,


    pausing to catch his breath.


    Caroline found the idea ridiculous. “I can’t alter a choice Neil has made. Do you truly believe he’d


    change his mind just because I asked?”


    Grayson’s expression grew serious. If you can’t bring him back, no one else can! Are you going to


    stand idly by as I send your brother to prison? Caroline, you bear the responsibility for influencing Neil’s


    actions!


    “E would be looking after me if it weren’t for you! And why do I face humiliation? It’s all because of


    you! None of this would have urred without your involvement!


    “You’ve brought unhappiness to your parents, and now you’re causing misery to Neil and me! To what


    extent are you willing to dismantle the Xander family?”


    Caroline could no longer maintain herposure. “Isn’t all of this your own doing? Would my parents


    be suffering if you hadn’t exiled my father from the family due to your disdain for him? Would my


    brother be distancing himself from the family if he wasn’t disillusioned by your eptance of a bitch as


    your granddaughter?


    “You’re too proud to admit your own mistakes, so you ce the me on me! You don’t deserve


    anyone’s


    respect. You’re getting what you deserve now!”


    Caroline’s words took aback Grayson.


    As he gazed at Caroline’s angry face, he briefly saw Eleanor’s face.


    He recalled how Eleanor had addressed him when she sought to sever ties with him.


    She had told him that he didn’t deserve respect…


    Grayson’s lips trembled, and he extended his quivering hand toward Caroline.


    “Ellie…” Grayson mumbled, his eyes reddened with tears.


    Caroline swiftly retreated.


    “I’m not my mother! You don’t need to put on an act to gain my sympathy!” Caroline retorted coldly.


    Grayson snapped back to reality, his gaze once again dimmed.


    Grayson scoffed. “Heh, just like Ellie…”


    Grayson staggered away, and a sorrowful expression took over his face. “She said that to me before


    she- left… But what good was Hugh? He was utterly useless aside from pleasing Ellie.”


    Grayson sat down unsteadily. “Ellie was a clever girl, far better at managing a business than her


    brother!


    She was meant to marry a suitable man and elevate the Xander family to unprecedented heights in


    Angelbay. Yet, she lowered herself to be with a ne’er–do–well like Hugh! How could I find sce in


    giving


    my exceptional daughter to him?”


    Caroline’s anger transformed into pity as she witnessed Grayson’s mixture of anger and sorrow


    Grayson loved his daughter but loved her in the wrong way. He wanted to dictate her life with his


    inflexible mindset, ultimately leading to tragedy.


    It was detestable, pitiful, and disgusting.


    Despite all this, Caroline felt no sympathy for him.
