Chapter 1844


    In the living room.


    A crowd gathered around Bernard.


    "Grandpa, please, wake up." Chasel''s tone was filled with concern and worry.


    "With your level of mental fortitude, why bother to watch the video?" Sean hadn''t expected the old man

    to be so frail that he''d pass out right after the video ended.


    Next to them, Cornelia closed her eyes in grief, letting her tears flow unchecked.


    "Granny, don''t cry over it. Let''s just pretend we never had that granddaughter. Shedding tears for


    someone like that isn''t worth it," Belinda Griffith consoled her, patting her back empathetically.


    Cornelia was feeling too upset and too angry.


    She had thought their granddaughter’s return would add warmth and joy to the household. But she


    could never have imagined... never in her wildest dreams, that Serena could do such heinous things


    behind their backs!


    Had they not seen the video today, they''d have remained unaware of the hardships Be had endured!


    At that moment, one of the sharp-eyed servants spotted Arabe, as if seeing a beacon of hope, her


    eyes lighting up.


    "Ms. Be''s here!"


    Everyone turned as Arabe made her entrance, her strides brisk yet graceful. Despite rushing, her


    cool and confident presence still managed to turn heads.


    "Is Granny here?" Arabe smiled warmly at Cornelia. Not having time for a catch-up, she knelt beside


    the couch, her delicate and fair fingers checking Grandpa Bernard''s pulse, "It is caused by vascr


    Swiftly opening her medical kit, she selected a fine needle and expertly located the corresponding


    pressure point.


    After a few pricks, and a short wait, Bernard slowly opened his eyes.


    Everyone crowded around him, their faces alight with joy.


    "Ms. Be''s amazing. Just a few needles and he''s alright."


    "Mr. Collins is awake!"


    "Grandpa, you''re finally up."


    As Bernard''s blurry vision cleared and he recognized Arabe, his emotions overwhelmed him again,


    and tears streamed down his face.


    "My child, this family has wronged you." he grasped Arabe''s hand, visibly shaken.


    "Grandpa, please take deep breaths. Your health is what''s most important," Arabe soothed him


    gently, "This family hasn''t wronged me. On the contrary, I''ve received so much care and warmth here I


    can''t even count. The ones who did wrong are Serena, Erik, and Martha. They''ve been fanning the


    mes, leading her down the wrong path. There''s no need for self-me; this isn''t your fault."


    "If we hadn''t been so blind to people''s true natures, you wouldn''t have suffered here for so long, my


    poor granddaughter."


    Bernard, ordinarily resolute, couldn''t help but embrace Arabe, crying like a child, "We''re so sorry,


    we''ve been fools, keeping such people close. You must be so upset, my child, I''m so sorry."


    Arabe patted his back gently, "I''m not the one who should be upset. Serena is the one who should


    be. She had everything going for her but she squandered it. Now she must be filled with regret."
