Chapter 61

The Honors Class’s evening study session in twenty minutes later i an the others. As Larry parked up his books and walked out, he saw s the hallway outside the claruhom with tears in her eyes.

She was petite and pretty, and the moment she appeared, the instantly caught everyone’s eye

“Larry” May started. As soon as she spoke, the tears started streaming down her face.

Larry belt a headache coming on. He thought, ‘Why is May still such a crybaby, just like when we were kids?

He didn’t dare walk over. He just frowned and asked, “Why aren’t you going here after school? What are you doing here?”

“I’m waiting for you.” May replied, biting her lip. “Did you hear about the inci

incident with the stolen piano in the music hall?

Larry always heard about anything that had to do with Edith. He’d wanted to look into the cave, but Edith turned fim dos

When he heard from the school administration today that it was all just a misunderstanding, he figured it was eady taken care of so he didn’t bother

with it anymore.

May recounted the whole thing between her and Edith and then sad while crying. “Edith still blames me and won’t forgive me. She ignores me when I try to talk to her. Larry, what should I do?”

Larry frowned. “Seriously? You’re crying over something like this?”

May paused for a second. “I just don’t know what to do. I got anxious and started crying

“Edith has always been generous. She wouldn’t hold a grudge over something so minor” Larry said coolly. “She’s busy with her studies, so don’t bother het With that, he headed downstairs.

Larry frowned. He’d heard from his own parents that May’s grandfather had disgraced himself in his old age and caused a huge scandal, dragging the whole family down and leaving them in shambles. May was just a young girl, none of that was her fault.

Besides, if he turned her down now, there would be no difference from the Larson family or those social climbers in Bonrea who only kicked people when they were down

Larry said coolly, “I’ll visit your parents after the midterms are over.”

“Larry, you’re the best!” May broke into a smile through her tears.

The car pulled up to the Lovett Manor. Edith opened the door and stepped out. As soon as she walked into the living room, she could feel the hewy

tension in the air.

Vincent and Karen were both sitting in the living room. When they saw her come in, they both stood up, looking like they were ready to confront her

“Edith, come here,”

here,” Vincent said, trying his best to keep his voice calm, “Why didn’t you tell me about what’s been happening at school thest low days?”

He thought, ‘Edith is always so independent–linded. She has managed to keep something this serious completely hidden from us. If I’d known sooner, I wouldn’t have been caught off guard today!

Edith set her bag down and then said with a faint smile, “Why don’t you ask Hallie that question? She was the one behind the whole piano theft. Shouldn’t you be asking her why she kept it from the family

Vincent didn’t know what to say. Halle was the one who messed up, sit of course she’d cover it up. This was no way share t

When he brought it up with Hallie endlier, she just started howling, so ba had to let it go for now. One daughter past cried all the time, so tough and direct that she let him completely speechless

“So you knew all along that Hale was behind thist” Karen seized on the key point. “You went out of your way to find evidence and report You were trying to get Hallie thrown in jail on purpose”

She’d already pieced together the whole story. At first, the entire school suspected Edith, and the

adelinal for three days to clear her Karta

Karen thought, Most girls her age would’ve run straight home for help the moment something like this happened. fut this little brat actually managed to dig up the evidence and even talked the school into calling the cops.

“And after that, things just spiraled out of control. Our family has to leverage all our connections and spend a ton of money put to smooth things over

“Spending money is the least of it, the real problem is that Hallie’s reputation is almost ruined. I’ve poured my heart into resing Hatlie. There’s no way I‘ let this bitch bring her down!

“Do you have any idea how much trouble you’ve caused our family?” Karen hissed through clenched teeth. “Your dad’s so stressed out he’s got blisters

on his lips!”

“That’s a pretty odd thing to say,

say, Karen,” Edith said with a faint smirk. “Hallie’s the one who caused all this trouble for the Lost family. What does any of

it have to do with me?

“instead of holding the real culprit accountable, you’re coming after me. Is it just because I’m not your own daughter?”

Karen’s jaw clenched even tighter. She thought, This damn bitch is so quick with her words. Just a few words, and she has dragged Hallie right back into the mess!

“Dad, maybe you should spend more time keeping Hallie in line,” Edith said coolly. “She’s hanging around with those troublemakers. She’s probably picked up some bad habits. If she dares to steal something worth hundreds of thousands, maybe next time she’ll even hire a hitman.”

Before Karen could say anything, Edith turned and headed upstairs

Vincent looked up at Karen and said, “If you can’t even keep Hallie in line, then there’s no reason for the beauty salon to stay open.

Karen felt like her weak spot had just been seized. She’d married into the Lovett family with nothing, always at a disadvantage compared to Vincent

If her beauty salon took off, she’d finally have assets of her own and could slowly start moving some of the Lovett family’s money into her own pocket, so there was no way she could let the salon close down

She let out a sigh and said, “Hallie’s just too naive. She got mixed up with the wrong crowd and ended up making a mistake. I’ll make sure to discipline

But Edith, after six years in a small town with no one to guide her, acts so recklessly.

“Take the Reed family, for example. They had already agreed to the marriage alliance, but she just had to interfere, and now the Reed family is doing everything they can to get my nephew thrown in jail.

“And as for what happened today, it could’ve been handled simply, but because she kept it from us, now the Lovett family has to donate and building just to settle things.

“A whole building—that’s almost a million! Do you know how many projects we’d have to take on to earn that back?”

Vincent’s expression grow even more sullen. Lately, it felt like the Lovett family was getting hit with one problem after another, and he was starting to feel completely exhausted.

“Ever since Edith came back, the Lovett family hasn’t had a single peaceful day.” Karen sighed. “Even Melinda died in that car accident because of Edith. Don’t you think Edith is a jinx or something!”
