Chapter 1212
Chloe gave a small smile, "Ms. Wendy going to such extremes shows how great Damon is"
If he wasn''t that awesome, why would others be so desperate for him?
Carolina went to extremes for money. No one can deny,
money was one hell of a good thing. Wasn''t the whole world hustling non-stop for money?
Wendy went to extremes for love. In this world, the only thing that could possibly rival money was
love.
She got the best love in the world. How many people wished for this kind of love?
She should feel lucky that her only rival now was Wendy,
because she didn''t have that many love rivals. Otherwise,
all the women rted to Damon... How many rivals would she have to face?
"You''re such a dork! Praising your husband like that, aren''t you afraid he''ll be shy?" Rose crossed
her arms over her chest, couldn''t help but tease. She sighed inwardly, Chloe was not the old Chloe
anymore.
Chloe blushed, "I... I''m just telling the truth."
“Alright! You''re all about the truth!" Rose raised her hands in surrender. The truth can really hurt.
Just as they finished speaking, Elizabeth''s phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, she paused for a moment, and her smile instantly faded.
The living room fell silent.
Elizabeth answered the call, her expression cold and her voice deliberately lowered, devoid of any
emotion. "Hello.
"It''s me, Grace"
"I know. What''s up?" Grace was silent for a while on the other end of the phone before she said, "I
heard... Wendy is injured, I''ve heard some rumors, and I just want to know what exactly happened.
Elizabeth''s face was cold, a hint of sneer shed in her eyes,

but her tone was still polite and cold. "She is indeed injured,
now recuperating at Presley''s. However, rumors are rumors,
half-truths, all things have causes and effects. It''s not something that can be exined in a few
words."
Grace was silent again,ughed dryly after a while. "When Wendy left, I told Presley to take good
care of her, I thought even if I didn''t say anything, you wouldn''t let Wendy be wronged in P City.
Wendy called me, said Presley insisted on taking her back to the Harper family for recovery, but you
all left in anger. She also said you don''t like her anymore. She was crying during the call. She didn''t
dare to reach you, so she could only call me to talk to you. You should go back too, Presley is too
old to be alone, it''s so pitiful.
“Don''t ruin your family over some outsider you do not even know about. We couldn''t let some
outsider sour the rtionships at home."
Her tone had no hint of usation; in fact, it seemed very generous. However, no matter how they
were heard, these words made people feel very ufortable. In her mind,
Wendy came to the Harper family to recover, ended up driving everyone away. She had already
talked to Presley earlier, and even if she hadn''t, Elizabeth should have naturally protected Wendy.
These usations and sarcasm made Elizabeth very angry.
"If Wendy wants to recover at the Harper family’s vi, then she should take care of herself. We
have to go back anyway.
It depends on when Wendy can recover.
"Since Wendy called you, I can probably guess where those rumors you just mentioned came from.
You should be in P City by now, right? Are you at the Harper family''s vi?" Grace closed her lips
tightly, looked at Presley sitting across from her, suppressed her anger, forced a smile and said,
“You''re really smart. Nothing can get past you. Yes, Wendy suffered so much pain. As her mother,
how could I sit by and do nothing?" "We haven''t seen each other in a long time. Since you''re going
toe back anyway, why note back now?" Elizabeth chuckled lightly, “Alright. I''ll listen to you,
I''m going back:
After hanging up the phone, Elizabeth''s face turned icy cold.
Just looking at that cold expression, you could tell how angry she was.
"I''m pissed!" Elizabeth threw her phone aside, yelled a few times, venting her anger.
Then she suddenly stood up from the sofa. "All she said was for me to go back, right? She''s ying
generous in front of me, then I''ll show her petty."
At the Harper family’s vi, Grace hung up the phone, put away the gloom on her face, and smiled
at Presley across from her.
"She should be back soon. Presley, sorry for the trouble."
Grace''s words made Presley feel awkward, as he only let Wendy recover at his house. Now being
told by her mother that she was causing trouble to him, any dignified person would feel awkward.
The two families had always had a good rtionship, and they watched these children grow up,
Now her injury was caused by his grandson''s wife.
Grace saying this was clearly trying to make him feel awkward. Presley clenched his lips, tightened
his jaw, and didn''t say a word in the end.
"I''m going upstairs to check on Wendy." Having had enough fun watching Presley''s awkwardness,
Grace timely suggested going upstairs, to which Presley naturally agreed.
Upstairs, after a night of treatment, Wendy''s condition finally stabilized.
At this moment, Wendy was nearly half-dead, her face so pale it was heartbreaking, her eyes
lifeless and her lips bloodless. She looked utterly weak.
Seeing Wendy in this state, Grace felt heartbroken.
“Mom..." When Wendy saw Grace, she cried out excitedly,
then tears started flowing from her eyes. Her lips were visibly trembling violently, she looked at her
mother, her face full of hurt and helplessness.
Even though Grace was torn up inside, her face showed no excessive sympathy, her gaze
indifferent, rarely revealing too much emotion. She was calm andposed, radiating an
unattainable vibe all over her. She always knew how to y the role of a proper high societydy,
how to y the hostess in a powerhouse like the Alonso family.
She was neither humble nor arrogant, neither fawning nor vulgar; she always maintained a
dignified, elegant, calm andposed image.
She walked over and sat by the bed, looking at Wendy''s pale face.
