    When old Mrs. Riley heard that. her face suddenly turned cold, and a smile crept onto her lips as she nced at Edith.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    "Mrs. Burton, if you still trust me, leave Adeline with me, and you and your youngest daughter may leave now. Since this involves matters concerning


    our families, I have a few personal words to say to Tristan. I am requesting you to step aside.”


    Edith hesitated for a while as she looked at old Mrs. Riley''s smiley face. It wasn''t friendly and conveyed a sense of distance and dignity, keeping her


    at bay.


    Edith couldn''t find a reason to persist any longer, so she smiled and responded. “Alright. then I''ll leave with Vi."


    After all, she had already achieved her goal today.


    Before leaving, Edith held onto old Mrs. Riley''s hand and sighed, "After this matter is resolved, please do me a favor."


    As she said that, she nced at Adeline before she continued, "This girl is not happy with what I say all the time. She isn''t supporting the family and


    she also says that she wants to cut ties with me. Tell me. How could I not be upset when I heard that? You are highly respected, and this girl is willing


    to listen to you. Please help me to give her a few words of advice."


    When old Mrs. Riley heard "cut tie", she gave Adeline a surprised look.


    Edith raised the corners of her mouth and looked at Vi, with a satisfied look shing in her eyes.


    "Old Mrs. Riley, I''ll leave it to you then. I''ll leave first."


    After saying that, Edith left with Vi.


    After the door was closed, old Mrs. Riley looked at Logan and asked, "Is what Adeline said a lie?"


    Logan shook his head and answered, "I knew a thing or two about this back then.”


    “Okay.” Old Mrs. Riley nodded and looked at Tristan, "Tell me, what do you want to do when you get Adeline and Sara from me?"


    Tristan''s expression turned stern, and he had no intention of hiding it from old Mrs. Riley. He answered, "I will make them feel exactly of my son has


    suffered!"


    “Okay.” Old Mrs. Riley nodded and asked further, "Let me ask you again. Is what Adeline said about the incident and those things that happened to


    Sara true?"


    Tristan hadn''t even spoken yet, but old Mrs. Riley''s eyes gleamed with authority.


    “You should know, I''m not easily fooled. Lie to me once, and don''t evere looking for me again. Besides, I have plenty of ways to verify who''s


    telling the truth here!”


    Tristan didn''t look confident but


    lifted his chindefiantly. He said,

    who shevs, how can theypare

    cheap women. My son is farrnore


    noble than any of them! Itmiust have


    been their foolishness that led to


    their deaths!"


    A loud crash was heard.


    Old Mrs. Riley smashed the teacup in her hand


    "Tristan Morris! Do you realize why is your son so ipetent? It''s because he has a father with such twisted values as you!”


    "After hearing both sides, Adeline didn''t do anything wrong! Neither is Sara! As long as no lives were taken, they are not at fault!"


    "When ites to a matter which


    involves of several family members


    of your-Own, any person would rush


    to beat.up the culprits. Even an


    inanimate object would inhecit some


    human qualities, let alone. Sara"

    "Today, if you ask me for these people, my answer is a firm "no"! I won''t give any of them to you, not a single one protected by the Riley family!"


    “Not only will I not give them to you, but if you ever dare to touch them in the future, I''ll make sure the entire Prodiff knows that you''re against the


    Riley family!"

    Tristan was so infuriated that his mouth twisted. He asked, "Have you forgotten the favor you received from us back then, old Mrs. Riley? Do you


    want to turn against the Morris family?"


    After a pause, Tristan added with his hatred gaze.


    "If this gets out, don''t you worry that people will say that the Riley family is ungrateful?”
