Chapter 98 Rtives
Her life seemed to return to normal again.
After work, Marissa shoved all those checks to Caroline.
"Marissa, thank you." Caroline did not refuse. She wanted to hide the money. When Bentley was
tired of this game, she would leave here with the money and nevere back.
Caroline walked out of Marissa''s office and carefully pressed the bag of checks and cash into her
handbag.
Caroline whispered, “This is the key to our dream of Gartane Lake. Give me some time, Delores. I
will try my best to carry out my promise.”

She thought of Delores''s ashes were still stored in the funeral home. “Delores, wait for me! I will
take you to Gartane Lake to see the clear blue sky and clouds there!”
Unusually today, Caroline took a taxi after work.
Downstairs in the dormitory, Caroline got out of the taxi, carefully holding her bag in her arms.
After paying off the taxi fare, she walked upstairs without stopping.
The corridor was quiet. She had been used to the quiet corridor when she came home every night.
While walking, she took out the key. She looked up and saw the two people in front of her door with
the dim light shining on them. Jameson was so shocked that she dropped her key to the ground.
Looking at the two people in front of the door, she felt as if time froze.
She opened her mouth, trying to address them, but finally bowed her head and said in a low voice,
"Mr. and Mrs. Jameson."
They were her parents. But she could no longer call them.
She hung her head and didn''t want them to see how embarrassed she was!
She tried to be calm, but her choked voice betrayed her emotions.
Mrs. Jameson looked at her with red eyes. "Callie, are you alright?" Mrs. Jameson was very
beautiful. Though she was not young anymore, she still seemed elegant and gentle.
Caroline''s eyes went wet.
The corridor was very quiet, and Caroline did not answer Mrs. Jameson''s question.
She hung her head as low as possible, her fingers trembling uncontrobly.
Raymond pulled a long face, fixing his fierce eyes on his daughter. For fear of waking up the
neighbors, he didn’t walk over to p her. In his mind, Caroline was a big disgrace to him.
He thought, “Now she realizes she has humiliated us, hanging her head deeply.”
"Mrs. Jameson," Caroline tried to calm down and her eyes moistened. She did not expect to see her
parents again after she was released from prison under such circumstances. "I''m fine," she replied.
"Callie, open the door first. Your dad and I have something to say to you," Mrs. Jameson said.
Caroline couldn’t tell how she felt, or whether she felt happy or sorrowful.
In a disturbed state of mind, she picked up the key on the floor, walked slowly to the door, and
opened it.
"Pleasee in."
Caroline had been keeping her voice low and soft, because she didn''t want to sound so
embarrassed in front of her parents, even though it was useless.
Raymond and Mrs. Jameson did not find there was something strange about Caroline, but just
thought Caroline had caught a cold.
After entering the dormitory, Caroline became a little nervous. "Mr. Jameson, Mrs. Jameson, I''ll get
you some water."
In a flurry, she put her handbag on the table, and then hurried to the kitchen.
She poured water out of a thermos jug. Looking at the white bowls, she started to regret it. “I should
have bought a few sses in advance.”
A white porcin bowl in each hand, she walked to the living room. "Mr. and Mrs. Jameson, I didn’t
buy ss, but the bowls are clean. You can rest assured."
Mrs. Jameson could not believe her eyes. “Is this really my daughter, the apple of my eye?” she
thought in grief.
Caroline walked to the table to put down the bowls. As she raised her head, she froze, and her face
changed color instantly. Her handbag on the table was open, revealing several stacks of banknotes
and checks!
"Caroline, tell me where the moneyes from!"
Raymond''s voice of authority shocked Caroline. The bowls in her hands shook violently, causing the
hot water to spill out. But Caroline remained still, letting herself be scalded by hot water.
She tried to calm down. "Mr. Jameson, please drink water."
There was a big p.
Raymond angrily dashed the bowl aside, and the hot water sshed on Caroline''s arm and her face
and neck!
Her sleeves were all wet through and the hot temperature made Caroline frown.
"Raymond, what are you doing?!" Mrs. Jameson turned pale and hurriedly went to take Caroline''s
arm. "Callie, let me look at you. Did you get hurt?"
"Cam! Go away! You have indulged her so much. You’ve made her into the person she is today."
Raymond pushed Mrs. Jameson away rudely. Mrs. Jameson stumbled and fell to the ground.
"Raymond, calm down. Let her exin. No matter what, you can''t beat her."
Caroline turned pale and hurriedly went to help Mrs. Jameson up when her wrist was caught, "Don''t
touch your mother with your dirty hands!"
Caroline froze, standing motionlessly. She said slowly, "Mr. Jameson, don’t touch me. Touching a
dirty person like me will make you dirty."
Raymond violently shook off Caroline''s hand and said, "What a tongue you''ve got! Caroline, exin
about the money to me!" He pointed at the handbag on the table and said, "How did you get it?"
Caroline still hung her head. From the very beginning, Mr. and Mrs. Jameson did not even see
Caroline very clearly. It was just that their understanding of their daughter and the information from
the detective agency proved that the girl living here was their daughter Caroline.
Caroline hung her head, her hands trembling violently. Listening to her father''s scolding, she
chuckled silently, her mouth tilting upwards slightly at the corners.
"Rather than ask me how I got the money, Mr. Jameson, why don’t you ask me which man I got the
money from? Or what did I give the man in exchange for the money?" She chuckled at the fact that
she had already been abandoned. How could she forget this fact?
