And then there was the Shaw family.

The Claude family had not treated Melody and her two kids badly, yet the Shaw family had raised three ungrateful wolves.

It was maddening.

Nishay held Anneliese’s hand tightly, tears slipping from the corners of her eyes. “Silly child, I’ve only dragged you down.”

Life in the White family had been so hard for Anneliese, yet she still tried to please them. Nishay knew most of it was probably for her sake.

The year Anneliese was found and brought back, Nishay’s health had suddenly gotten worse.

The White family had paid for two rounds of expensive medical treatment. That was the only thing Anneliese ever felt thankful to the White family for.

Those two bills had totaled more than 300,000.

For the White family at the time, that amount was the kind of money Melanie could spend on a purse. However, because of that money, the White family had constantly scolded Anneliese, saying she was siding with outsiders.

They used Nishay’s medical expenses to control her

many

times.

Later, Anneliese left the family and threw herself into starting a business with Zacharias. Part of the reason was that she believed in his team’s future, but she also didn’t want to keep being short of money and controlled by the White family.

They got lucky, catching the right wave in the industry. With generative Al technology, Zacharias built up great wealth in just a few years.

After that, they no longer had to rely on the White family to pay Nishay’s medical bills.

“Grandma, don’t say that. You’re my support, not a burden.” Anneliese frowned, puffed out her cheeks, and looked upset.

Nishay patted her head, and that was when Zacharias walked in with his mother and sister, carrying big bags.

“Ms. Morris, I brought my mom and sister…”

As soon as Anneliese turned and saw them, her expression changed. She stood up quickly. “Get out! Who said you could come here?”

“Anne, we came to apologize…”

“No need. Get out! Zacharias, my grandma just got a little better. Do you want to upset her so much she relapses? Get out!”

Anneliese pushed Zacharias toward the door, but Nishay’s voice came from behind. “Anne, let them in.”

“Grandma!”

“I’m fine. Listen to me.”

Seeing Nishay insist, Anneliese finally stepped aside.

Zacharias led Melody and Lenora inside and gave them a look.

Melody and Lenora stepped forward together and knelt in front of the bed.

“Nishay, I’m sorry. That day, I wasn’t thinking straight. I never meant to hurt you. Luckily, you pulled through, or I’d never forgive myself.”

“Ms. Morris, I know I was wrong. You watched me grow up. Please forgive me this time. I’ll treat you like my own grandma from now on.”

The mother and daughter cried hard, their faces messy with tears and snot. They looked so pitiful that Anneliese worried Nishay might give in. She stepped up and held Nishay’s hand, about to tell Melody and Lenora to stop, when Nishay spoke.

“Get up.”

“Grandma!” Anneliese protested quickly.

However, Nishay patted her hand. “I can’t accept your kneeling and apology. Get up, and let’s settle the score properly.”

Melody and Lenora almost smiled in relief, thinking they had convinced her.

However, Nishay’s latter words hit them hard.

Their knees, halfway raised, dropped back down as their expression turned ugly.

“S–Settle… what scores?”
