Sarah and Carlos called for the housekeeper to exin the situation, instructing him to have
someone keep an eye on the trio as they packed up and then send them away.
The butler, a long–standing figure in the household, was infuriated upon hearing the full story.
However, when he heard that even Lancelot was to be driven away, he was instantly filled with
panic, fearing that thedy’s anger might strain the bond between mother and son.
Although he did as instructed, the butler still wanted to consult with Lionel.
In reality, everyone in the main building had already retired for the night. However, themotion
they stirred up had roused them from their sleep, prompting them toe out and see what was
going on.
When they saw Greta returning lost, they asked the younger generation who had followed her about
what happened.
Upon learning of the situation, the men were so livid they wanted toe out and throw punches.
Eventually, Lionel emerged, asking about Greta’s decision. It was then that Greta calmly voiced her
thoughts.
Upon hearing her decision to disown her son, some elders couldn’t help but step in to advise. After
all, Greta only had that one son. They attributed his actions to his youth andck of understanding.
However, Lionel ultimately decided everything was left up to Greta herself. After all, she was already
in her forties, so she should make her own life decisions.
In the end, no matter how much Lancelot pleaded and cried to see his mother, he never got the
chance. Instead, he was ushered into a car by the housekeeper, along with two bodyguards and a
couple of other individuals.
Lancelot was restless, hence he was promptly tied up. Even Lancelot’s luggage was tossed in,
clearly indicating a firm resolution on his fate.
Everyone else was merely spectating and enjoying the show from the sidelines.
Seeing the car about to leave, Yasmine, with her disheveled appearance, spoke to Isabe, who
was standing closest to her.
“Could you please pass on an apology to Greta for me? We truly didn’t intend to hurt her,” Yasmine
said, tears streaming down her face.
“Enough,” Niel defended his beloved. “She’s already beaten you to this state. Things have been
settled long ago.”
Beside them, Lancelot was still struggling, resembling someone about to be abandoned. Clearly, he
had subconsciously realized that he had made a grave mistake and was about to lose the person
who valued
him the most.
Isabe didn’t expect Yasmine to disgust her onest time. Sheughed immediately and was the
first to speak. “I’m really curious. Why were you so willing to bend over backward back then?
Instead of trying to break up their family, why were you more inclined to be the mistress?”

Yasmine seemed to have found her stage to perform, excitedly saying, “That’s because I didn’t want
to ruin their family. I wanted them all to be happy, but I was also in love with Niel, so…”
“So, you wanted Aunt Greta to continue being the haggard wife, keeping the home front stable while
you two gallivant around, am I right? Word is, you couldn’t find a husband because you can’t bear
children, so having Lancelot, who treats you well, is enough for you. You’ve managed your
rtionship with Lancelot privately, not fearing that he might be spoiled because you know his strict
mother is still there to discipline him. So, Aunt Greta ys the bad cop, and you y the good cop.
What a clever scheme. You don’t have to spare much effort, nor do you need to work hard, yet you
get to enjoy the marital bliss and filial piety that even Aunt Greta can’t enjoy. All of this was
painstakingly nurtured and managed by Aunt Greta herself,” said Isabe.
That shocking exnation finally helped everyone there understand the logic behind the matter.
It was as though Yasmine’sst shred of dignity was stripped away. Indeed, she had thought as
such, but she couldn’tprehend why it sounded so sinister when someone else said it. She didn’t
believe she could be sinister when she bore no malice in her thoughts or actions. In the end, she still
believed she was merely making up for Greta’s shorings. In Yasmine’s view, Greta couldn’t
always be by her husband’s side to ensure stability, tenderly caring for him. As such, Yasmine only
saw herself as helping to look after Niel.
As for Lancelot, Yasmine believed the education of a child should strike a bnce between reward
and punishment. Since Greta was a strict mother, Yasmine assumed it was only natural for her to be
the lenient one. As such, she didn’t like how evil and scheming Isabe described her to be.
Looking at Yasmine’s expression, Isabe understood. She is genuinely foolish and wicked,
completely unaware of how detestable she is.
However, the impact of Isabe’s words on Niel and his father was undeniable.
Niel was momentarily stunned, but his rationality was swiftly drowned out by Yasmine’s soft sobs.
Lancelot was dumbfounded as if he had experienced some sort of shock.
