Chapter 83
Danielle immediately looked at me and examined me carefully.
I wriggled my lips, trying to say something, but I found that I couldn’t utter a single word.
Because of the way my grandmother looked at me, I felt a chill in my heart, as if she was a stranger.
Suddenly, she exclaimed excitedly, “How is it possible? Who are you? How could I have possibly given this bracelet to you?”
This bracelet was left for my beloved daughter–in–law. You are not my beloved daughter–in–law, so give it back to me quickly. Return my bracelet to me.”
Danielle forcefully tried to pull the bracelet off my wrist as she spoke.
That excited look, it was somewhat terrifying to watch.
I stared at her in a daze, and the kind and gentle appearance of the old woman in front of me instantly blurred.
So, what is this considered?
The bracelet was clearly given to me by her own hands, and Reynaldo also clearly told me to keep the bracelet properly.
What’s happening now?
So, is this them coming together, deliberately retaliating against me, deliberately messing with me?
Chapte
Well, it’s true, everyone knew that I used to treat Reynaldo badly, so it’s common knowledge.
Grandmother couldn’t have not known.
Reynaldo could not possibly speak highly of me in front of her.
So, just like Reynaldo, Grandma has always despised me?
When we first met, that kind and gentle side of hers was just an act, and the bracelet she gave me was intentional. It was also her deliberate instruction for me to stay overnight, all for the purpose of what is happening now.
Is it?
Ha!
I always thought that “revenge” was straightforward.
But I didn’t know that there could be more ways to beat around the bush.
Let me first feel guilty and moved, lift me up to the clouds, and then pull me down fiercely.
This was truly a good means of revenge!
An indescribable anger surged in my heart in an instant.
I pushed Danielle away.
Of course, I didn’t exert much effort, after all, she was an elderly woman well past her prime.
Danielle took a few steps back.
Chapter 3
Ronan quickly grabbed her and glared at me coldly, saying, “Esmeralda, watch your attitude!”
Snap!
Then, the noblewoman slapped me.
She sneered at me and said, “You stole from the old lady, and you dare to argue? You even had the audacity to push her!”
I covered my swollen red face and stared at her coldly.
She snorted at me and said, “It’s useless for you to look at me like that. Let me tell you, Winston left after the party ended. Don’t expect him to come out and protect you.”
“Yeah, shameless, flirting with men everywhere, now even daring to steal old ladies‘ bracelets!”
“I saw that their family had fallen on hard times, they were desperate for money, even resorting to stealing things and bringing them here.”
“Haha, she used to look down on Mr. Reynaldo before, it’s really worth letting Mr. Reynaldo see her sneaky appearance.”
“Fortunately, we managed to expose her, otherwise who knows how much she would have stolen while taking advantage of this.”
The servants chattered away, their tones filled with mockery towards
- me.
Danielle glared at me with even more hostility and shouted, “Where did this wild girl come from? How could someone with such dirty hands and feet be a part of our Humphrey family? Tell her to return the bracelet to me immediately and get out of here.”
The lady of the house laughed and said, “Mom, you don’t know, she

was brought back by Reynaldo.”
“Impossible!” Danielle asserted firmly, “How could Reynaldo possibly be involved with a woman like her? Either she’s clinging onto Reynaldo!”
I didn’t know if Danielle was a skilled actress.
She at this moment is completely different from her previous self.
She knew very well that I came with Reynaldo, but at this moment, look how she pretends.
I laughed at myself, thinking she was such a good person, feeling guilty to death.
Well, originally, the two of them, the grandmother and grandson, had been fooling me, playing with me all along.
The anger in my heart surged higher and higher, that overwhelming anger almost burned away all of my rationality.
I forcefully took off the bracelet and shouted at Danielle, “You think I treasure this worthless bracelet? Even if you give it to me, I don’t want it. Take it back!”
After saying that, I recklessly threw the bracelet at her.
At that moment, I was really angry to the point where I didn’t care about anything.
I also believe that all those “handed down from ancestors“, “deep meaning“, and “something to leave for future daughter–in–law” are all lies.
That was all a lie to me.
