Chapter 2076
Estelle was supposedly crushed, trampled underfoot by the high society, yet somehow, she had risen like a phoenix from the
ashes. How had she done it?
Granddaughter of the prestigious Jarvis family, CEO of the renowned GK Enterprises, and wife to the president of the Lamont
Group.
How had she achieved all this?
She had stayed away, silent, unresponsive—was she just biding her time to deliver a fatal blow when they were most excited?
It had to be the case. Estelle had always been cunning.
The Crawley family was unreachable by phone, likely a lost cause now. The Macin family was finished. Jonathan and the
Jarvis family would never let them off the hook!
Watching Simone grow increasingly irate, Carme turned with indifferent eyes and made her way upstairs.
Once in her room, she dialed a number. "Where are you?" she asked tersely.
Victor''s voice was cautious. "Carme, there''s trouble with the Macin family, isn''t there?"
"Yes!"
"Then you better get moving, don''t dy!" Victor''s voice dropped to a whisper. "I''ve got the money, anyway. If the Macins
catch on, we''re both done for!"
“Right, I''ll meet you at the airport. I''m leaving now!" Carme replied in a hushed tone, ncing at the firmly shut door before she
began packing swiftly.
The designer clothes in her wardrobe were too bulky and conspicuous; she had to leave them behind. But the jewelry Simone
had bought her—diamonds, gemstones—she had a whole drawer full, and naturally, she intended to take it all.
She stuffed her valuables into a designer limited-edition handbag and hurried out.
Simone was still in the living room, her shrill voice betraying panic as she made call after call.
Carme didn''t bother saying goodbye, clutching her handbag as she rushed out the door.
Her nerves,pounded with anxiety, made her fumble with her shoes. As she turned, she mmed into Bet, who had just
returned in an equal rush.
"Ah!"
The collision sent Carme stumbling back, her handbag tumbling to the floor, spilling diamonds and jewels across the carpet.
"Carme!" Bet rushed to help her up.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.
But she was solely focused on her gems, frantically gathering them back into her bag.
Simone approached with a furrowed brow. "Carme, where are you going?"
She snatched the bag from her hand and gaped in disbelief at the contents. "Are you running away? You''re going to abandon
your dad and me?"
Carme paled, shaking her head vehemently. "No, not at all!"
"So where are you going with all this at this hour?" Simone''s anxiety was palpable, her expression darkening.
Carme, eyes wide and panicked,
blurted out, "I—I was going toseay)

Simone was momentarily touched, regretting her rush to judgement. She was about to offerfort when Bet''s stern voice
cut through.
"Who is Victor Brown to you?"
"What?" Carme looked up in shock.
