Chapter 100 Vengeance

Erin took Angie to her family, and they stood together. She kept caring for Angie, asking if she was fine, and Angie felt surprised. She could see that Michael had decided to abandon her, and she couldn’t stay with them anymore. Just when she was going to fall into the pits of despair, Erin suddenly showed up and took her in. Nicholas was standing beside her, telling her that everything was going to be fine, but she wasn’t paying attention. Instead, she was coming up with a plan.

Crystal hated Cameron, while she was Cameron’s own daughter. If Crystal would stay in a coma forever, then it would be better for Angie, but if she were to regain consciousness, Crystal would treat her with disgust. I probably can’t get anything from Michael and his family. I can’t rely on Xander or Cameron either, so I have to plan for my future.

She had eight brothers, and four of them were her cousins. They used to adore her, but now, only Cedric and Nicholas cared about her. Crystal and Cameron were half-sisters. She was Cameron’s daughter, while Cedric was Crystal’s son. They were related, so no matter how nice Cedric was to her, she could never marry him, but she could marry Nicholas.

Michael had called the cops, and Angie knew that Cameron must have been arrested. The fact that Cameron was her mother would be revealed soon, and once the news made the rounds, she would become worthless in the community, and it would be impossible for her to marry into any good family. But I can marry Nicholas.

He might just be the Wendels’ third family’s second son, and that’s not even comparable to the family’s heir. But at least they’re the richest family in Wendel City. As long as Wendel Corporation still stands, I can live a good life forever.

She would never have even considered Nicholas before this. She was arrogant back then, and she was aiming for the heir to the second largest family in Worrick. Marriage between rich families was a big deal, and back then, she was the only princess of the Wendels. She thought she was worthy of any man in the world, but now, she didn’t even dare think about having her pick of men. The more prestigious a family was, the more they cared about their children’s partners’ backgrounds.

Cameron’s infamy was well known, and Angie only became a part of the Wendels because of Cameron’s switcheroo, and the truth would drag her down. No rich family would want her to marry their children. She would have never considered Nicholas before this, but now, he was her best choice. If she let this chance slip, she would lose all initiative, and instead of her doing the picking, men would be the ones picking her. And they won’t be great men either.

I have to grasp this chance and establish my status as Nicholas’ fiancée before my friends find out about my real identity. Even if I am no longer a part of the Wendels after that, being their daughter-in-law can at least keep my status intact, and my friends won’t laugh at me.

Her plan was made, and she sorted everything out in just a few moments. She leaned closer to Nicholas and acted even more pitiful.

Nicholas was the closest to her in age out of the eight boys in the Wendel Family. They were the same age and were classmates from elementary to high school. Aside from Michael’s sons, he was the one who interacted with her the most, and he was deeply attached to her. If he had to choose, he would lean toward Angie. Cameron might be at fault, but Angie was innocent.

And Madeline tried to get Uncle and Auntie to chase her away? That’s too much. Angie did nothing wrong, but she has to leave? He thought it was pitiful that she had to lose her family, so he supported his mother in taking her in. He sympathized with Angie, seeing as how she was putting on the act of a pitiful victim. He kept promising her that he would take care of her and that everything would be alright.

Angie looked at him tearfully, feeling touched. “Thank you, Nicholas.”

Her look of reliance fueled his sense of brotherly love, and he held her shoulders firmly, promising, “As long as I am here, you’ll always be a part of the Wendels. If anyone tries to bully you, you come to me. I’ll take care of them for you.”This is property © of .

Angie kept nodding, and she looked at Nicholas gratefully.

Nicholas wanted to say something, but the butler was already coming in with Robert.

After Sebastian and Madeline went to bed last night, Michael called his brothers and locked Harriet in the basement after he asked their opinion. She would be judged after they came. It was late night at that point, and he asked Robert to stay over, but his father refused. He wanted to return home no matter what.

Worried, he asked Jonathan to follow Robert, but Robert refused. He didn’t want anyone to follow him. All he wanted was to be alone. It had only been one night, but Robert looked like he had aged ten years. His back was hunched, his face was pasty, and there were dark circles under his eyes, as if he just recovered from a bad illness.

His sons felt sad seeing their father looking like that. They went to him, then helped him to the couch and sat him down.

Robert sat down and asked Michael, “Where’s Harriet?”

Michael answered, “Still in the basement.”

Robert said, “Get her here. I have something I need to ask her.” He didn’t sleep for the whole night. Robert was reminded of a lot of things, and he had a lot of questions to ask Harriet.

Michael nodded and looked at Jonathan. Jonathan then told the bodyguards to bring Harriet up.

A few minutes later, two bodyguards took her into the living room. Harriet blanched and shivered when she saw the whole Wendel Family in the living room. She pushed the bodyguards away and staggered over to Rovert. She then knelt before him and hugged his legs. “Rob, please, have mercy on me! For old times’ sake! Please, I’ve raised your sons for you! No matter what I ever did, my love for you is true! And my love for the boys is true as well! Rob, I—”

“Shut up!” Morgan was the closest to Harriet, and he kicked Harriet to the ground. His face was red with fury, and he pointed at Harriet. “You took care of us? You raised us? Are you f*cking kidding me? If you hadn’t killed our mother, she would have taken care of us better than you did! If she was around, we wouldn’t have even needed you!”
