Chapter 776


    Simone continued. “In truth, Carme was a well behaved girl from the start. All the issuen arose when


    Estelle returned to this family! They aren’t even biological sisters, yet somehow they became rivals. If


    we embrace Estelle, we can’t embrace Carme, and vise versal”


    Bet thought carefully about Simone’s words and knew she had a paint. Frowning he asked, “So


    you chose Carme and gave up on Estelle?”


    Simone grabbed a tissue to wipe away her sudden tears, I had no choice but to pick one in this


    situation. I know it’s unfair to Estelle But I’ve invested too much time and energy in Carme. I can’t


    possibly put the same effort into Estelle Besides, and she doesn’t have the same potential as Carme”


    “It’s just a pity that her foster parents died early, and those who adopted her afterward gave her a


    mediocre upbringing making her unfit for our kind of family!”


    “Our family business has been going downhill these past two years, and our parents are approaching

    the time to split the assets. We need Carme to help solidify our position in the Macin family, so our


    parents won’t y favorites”


    Bet didn’t say anything. He knew Simone was thinking long–term, but something still felt off


    Maybe Simone’s choice today was too hasty because there was a lot about Estelle they didn’t


    understand.


    Like her rtionship with Jonathan.


    If Estelle had any connections to the Lamont family their choice today would be a huge mistake!


    After hesitating, he still decided to share his thoughts with Simone.


    Simone scoffed and shook her head. “Estelle said she’s just a tutor for the Lamont family. Have you


    ever seen a man from wealthy family marrying a tutor as his wife? If you’re hoping for Estelle to climb


    the socialdder with the Lamonts, you’d better think about Carme instead!”


    Outside the private box, the door was slightly ajar Carme stood there, listening to Simone and


    Bet’s conversation clearly


    She sneered and walked away


    After dinner, Estelle and the others left the mansion.


    Estelle handed a small gift to Henson, smiling. “Just a little something from me!”


    Janice refused, ‘I appreciate your thought, but I can’t ept the gift!”


    “Just take it, it’s only right” Jonathan took the gift and handed it to Henson.


    Janice scowled at Jonathan, retorting, ‘Ms. Macin works just as diligently for her earnings, you know.


    What’s with this only right nonsense?”


    Henson epted the gift, understanding the situation. He thanked Estelle.


    With his back to Janice and Alcott, he mouthed another ‘Thank you, Auntie!”


    Estelle’s ears turned red, and she turned to say goodbye to Janice and her husband.


    Jonathan said, “Bro, you guys go home. I’ll take Ms. Macin.”


    Alcott nodded, ‘Drive safely!”


    “Will do.”


    Everyone said their goodbyes and went to their cars to leave


    On the way home, Janice pondered, “Why do I feel like there’s something weird between them?”


    Alcott dismissed her concerns, “Young people who spend a lot of time together are all like that. You’re


    just being too sensitive!”


    Janice turned back to Henson and asked, “When Ms. Macin came over the weekend, did you notice


    anything unusual?”


    “No!” Henson said seriously, “Ms. Macin was very focused during ss. She left as soon as it was


    over.”


    Janice turned back and smiled, “Maybe I’m just overthinking it!”


    Henson looked out the window and secretlyughed to himself.
