He stormed over and grabbed her. “It was you! It had to be you!”
Yunice looked up calmly, meeting <b>his </b>eyes. “That’s right?
“I simply mailed myself a package. If someone couldn’t resist taking what wasn’t theirs, well- she scoffed, “maybe they shouldn’t assume everyone else is as dumb as they are. In the end, it’s her own greed—and <b>her </b>own arrogance–that made her look like a fool.”

Owen couldn’t take it anymore. He shoved Yunice. “Who are you calling an embarrassment? If you hadn’t set this whole thing up, how could our Saunders family be humiliated like this? You’re responsible for ruining our reputation today you’re paying for it!”
Yunice smiled. “Fine. I’ll take responsibility. I’ll expose every single dirty deed Elsie’s ever done and rip off thatke, saintly mask of hers.”
“You” Owen was at a loss for words, his anger boiling over.
Just as he raised his hand, another hand blocked it—<b>and </b>then smack–a pnded hard on his
Owen <b>was </b>stunned. He looked up in shock and saw who it was. “Mr. Carl?”
Carl stood in front of Yunice, flexing his wrist, “Huh, I saw someone trying toy a hand on Yunny from across the room, and it turns out it’s my dear nephew?”
He was smiling, but it was impossible to tell if he was joking or furious.
Elsie rushed over. “Mr. Carl, it was Yunice who disrespected Owen first. He was just trying to reason with her he did nothing wrong….
Carl didn’t even look at her.
Owen, thinking the p was an ident, added, “Mr. Carl, you’ve been abroad all these years;

you don’t know how rebellious Yunice has be. Did you <b>see </b>wen abroad all these years;

“Oh?” Carl straightened his face and gave a sharp (sk. “Actually, I didn’t see a thing.”
He nced at Yunice, then turned a scrutinizing look back to Owen. “<b>And </b>how exactly did she drag your family through the mud?”
Owen thought he had found his moment. He jumped in, “She made Elsie wear knockoff clothes to make everyoneugh at her! And then she nted a stolen ginseng to frame Elsie!”
Carl raised a brow. “Never heard of this Elsie you keep talking about, but is she that stupid? <b>Yunny </b>
To wear <b>fakes</b><b>, </b><b>and </b>she does? Tells her to give away stolen herbs, and she just goes along

back in front of Carl.
Carl’s gaze darkened, catching every movement.

Yunice turned to him calmly. “Mr. Carl, since you’re here, may I ask you to judge this fairly?”
“Elsie ims I sent her a package to set her up. So tell me whose name was on that package?”
Elsie hesitated, then answered meekly, “It was addressed to Yunice, of course…”
Yunice asked sharply, “Then who is Yunice?”
Elsie’s eyes filled with tears. “Yunice, I’ve been called Yunice for three years. It’s my name too- I’m used to it now.”
Yunice gritted her teeth. What a shameless excuse, stealing and acting like it’s <i>justified</i>!
Afraid Carl might misunderstand, Owen jumped in. “It’s like this, Mr. Carl. Yunny spent three years in a mental hospital due to her condition. I didn’t want people talking, so I asked Elsie to pretend to be Yunny in public.”
Carl gave a half–smile and nodded. “Ah, I see.” Then he finally turned to Elsie, “So you open anything that says ‘Yunice‘ on it? How were you so sure it was meant for you?”
He chuckled. “If you weren’t sure and opened it anyway, isn’t that just stealing?”
Elsie immediately tried to weasel out of it: “I was sure–because she never lived at the Saunders. mansion. If it got delivered there, it had to be for me.”
She nced timidly at Yunice and added in a soft voice, “Yunice knew that, and that’s how she managed to frame me…”
“Oh?” Carl looked intrigued. “If she doesn’t live with the Saunders, then where <b>does </b>she live<b>?</b>”
Elsie looked at Owen, <b>unsure </b>what Carl was getting at. Wasn’t he here to back us up? Why is he interrogating me instead?
Owen, frustrated, snapped, “That’s exactly what’s been bothering me! Ever since Dad passed, Yunice has been totally <b>out </b>of control–<b>always </b>out running around, never home. I’ve talked to her, yelled at her, but <b>nothing </b>works!”
He grumbled, “Mr. Carl, now that you’re back, <b>you </b>have to <b>help </b>me keep her in line. Otherwise<b>, </b>I won’t even be <b>able </b>to face my dad’s grave<b>!</b>”
Yunice sneered. “Oh, <b>and </b><b>you </b>really care so much about <b>Dad</b>, <b>huh</b>? <b>How </b>many times a year do you even visit his grave?”
What does that <b>have </b>to do with this? Owen snapped. “Stop dragging <b>me </b>into it!”
Elsie jumped in to smooth things over. “Yunice, don’t argue with Owen. He’s been supporting our whole family all by himself. He’s so busy he <b>can’t </b>even take care of himself. Saying that just hits
