NovelUpdateChapter 500 After saying all that, Violet hung up immediately. At last, she'd managed to pick up on sof the conversation.
"Violet, are you threatening my mom?" Gwyneth's voice trembled in disbelief. She couldn't wrap her head around it-Violet, who had always doted on her, was now using her life to threaten her mother.
"Yes, that's exactly what I'm doing." Violet's voice was ice-cold. "Victoria stole everything from me-my life, my future-and she's the one who's about to sendto prison. Now, we'll see just how much you matter to your mother. If she doesn't love you, you can prepare to go down with me. If I don't get to live, you don't get to die in peace, either. I want Victoria to spend the rest of her miserable life drowning in regret." Gwyneth's tears dried up in an instant. She stared at Violet as if she were a stranger. Her little heart felt as if it had been smashed to pieces.

Gwyneth couldn't hold back anymore. She burst into tears again, but this tit wasn't out of fear-it was heartbreak.
Violet's frustration only deepened at the sound of her crying. "Shut up! You're drivinginsane. I never liked you-I don't like children at all. I'm warning you, don't start bawling in front ofagain. Or I'll tape your mouth shut and throw you out for the wild dogs." There wasn't a trace of compassion left in her. After Simms had forced her into the beds of those old men, she'd lost all standing in high society. No matter how much money she managed to make later, she could never squeeze herself into that so-called "pure and innocent" circle-a world that was rotten to its core beneath the surface.
Sthings you could get away with if no one knew. But once a scandal broke, you were finished in this world. Now, all she wanted was a spotless record and enough cash to start over somewhere far away-somewhere she could leave Starfall City behind for good. This country had nothing left for her. Disgraced and penniless, who would ever accept her? She didn't intend to stick around and find out. With enough money, she could indulge herself, maybe even get married abroad. As long as no one knew her past, she could be anyone she wanted.
Gwyneth was still just a kid-she couldn't process how someone she adored could turn into such a monster overnight. She wept quietly, her sobs turning ragged, barely able to breathe. Violet didn't spare her a single glance, only looking at her with undisguised annoyance.
Thank God she'd never married McNeil, Violet thought bitterly. Otherwise, she'd be stuck for life with this sniveling, spoiled little princess.
How many sacrifices had she made to keep Gwyneth happy? She'd bent over backwards for that child, practically becoming Victoria's unpaid nanny. But she was done now. She wasn't anyone's nanny anymore. She wanted money-lots of it.
She was betting everything that Victoria would never abandon Gwyneth. The woman loved McNeil so much she'd lost herself; she'd even risked everything to have Gwyneth and endured watching her daughter love Violet best, all for his sake.
