Chapter 506


    Theo narrowed his eyes dangerously.


    I quickly nodded. "I know."


    This man would be far from human when he lost his mind, so it was wiser to give in when


    necessary.


    Zedd was in charge of holding Grant Corporation''s annual meeting. Theo asked me if I wanted to go


    to the meeting but I did not want to. Besides, the Schumans were about to hold a family dinner


    soon.


    Yvonne had given me a call before this, inviting me to go to the Schuman''s ce earlier to stay


    there. It would not seem appropriate if I did not live even a single day in the Schuman''s house


    before my name was recorded in the family genealogy.


    Tyler gave me a call asking me when I was going so he coulde and pick me up. After telling


    him the date, I told him about the incident where I had injured Cindy.


    Tylerughed cheerfully. "I''m liking your new changes more and more."


    I furrowed my brows. "Serious."


    "Alright." Tyler cleared his throat. "Why didn''t Petra and Grayson pursue this matter?"


    I raised my eyebrows. "How do you know that they''re not pursuing this matter?"


    Tyler snorted. "If they were, then I wouldn''t be able to reach your phone by now. Also, I would’ve


    received news about it."


    I cast my eyes downward. "Cindy refuses to let this drop, obviously. She wants me dead. But Petra


    and Grayson decided to let it drop because they didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. I’m not sure


    why, though."


    Maybe they knew that Cindy was not their biological daughter. However, I was still not clear if Cindy


    was their biological daughter or not.


    "Alright."


    Tyler lowered his voice. "I won’t let them touch you. Try your best to stay away from Petra and


    Grayson from now on."


    I hummed a reply.


    Tyler chuckled. "I ordered a few gowns for you. Find time to go to the shop to try them out. It’ll be


    New Year’s soon and lots of banquets will be held. You can''t wear shabby clothes to attend them,


    can you?"


    "I have gowns." I pursed my lips. "In fact, one gown is enough. It''s just this time of the year where


    it''s needed the most."


    Gowns were expensive, and one could easily cost up to tens of thousands of dors, which would


    amount to a n astronomical amount of money for a few gowns. Besides, apart from attending


    banquets, I would never wear these gowns anywhere else. It would be a pity to just store them in


    the cloakroom.


    "Are you worried about the money?"


    Tyler knew me well, indeed.


    "Don’t worry, you don''t have to pay anything. Things that symbolize wealth, like these gowns, are


    necessary. Otherwise, others will think that you''re not presentable enough. Also, you should wear


    the jewelry that Theo bought you. Stop dressing yourself up like a working-ssdy."


    Me,"???"


    He was mocking me, right?


    This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    I exhaled and reminded myself not to be mad.


    "Carlson will probably invite Grayson. Be prepared," Tyler slowly said.


    I furrowed my eyebrows.


    I would have forgotten that the Louises were a distinguished family in Whaldorf City had he not


    mentioned it. The Schumans would surely invite the Louises to their banquets or it would seem


    pretty offensive.


    However, even if he attended, it did not matter. I was not concerned and just thought I should not be


    fighting with Petra and Grayson anymore.


    The things I did this whole time had cost the family greatly. I asked myself if I could not end their


    lives, then how far could I possibly go?


    Ruin their reputation and make them disappear from Whaldorf City?


    That would take a long time and a massive effort. It was not achievable in the short run and would


    be tremendously exhausting for me. It would also be hard to get along with life.
