Chapter 2472
Never mind if her best friends did not pick her up, but even her relatives were not there. Did they decide to curry favor with Camryn after she had taken over the family business? Now that Carrie was out of jail, she wanted to snatch the family business back. Her dad had run and managed the business all along. She could not let Camryn gain all the advantage. Besides, could a blind person like Camryn manage a company?Mr. Dalton Mitchell was most likely a pretentious person. He must have turned to Camryn after seeing Carrie and the Newman couple being sentenced to prison while Trenton was still in school. Since Carrie was released, he would probably side with her. Her dad had supported Dalton in climbing up the corporate ladder, so how could he be on Camryn’s side?Carrie stopped after taking a few steps.Two cars drove over slowly and stopped in front of her. Someone in the first car lowered the window. An unfamiliar, old face appeared. Well, that person was not that old

“Reveal your identity and the person who ordered you to pick me up. Otherwise, I won’t follow you.”After a short pause, the old woman said, “You’ve matured after being in prison. My husband’s last name is Clark and he was your dad’s business partner. They’re acquaintances.”Clark?Carrie did not know much about her family business. Her parents rarely talked to her about business as she was still young. The only thing she knew was her family was rich and her parents would give her anything in the world. Sometimes, she heard her dad mentioning that their business was booming. They must have come because they knew her dad. “How did you know that I’m being released today, Mrs. Clark?”The old woman’s smile never faltered. “I had someone find out this information several times. We’re friends with Mr. Newman as we collaborated on some projects previously. He requested us to look after his son and daughter before going to jail.“Your brother’s doing well. He’s on good terms with

Everything Mrs. Clark mentioned about helping her was simply out of courtesy. All of Carrie’s misfortune stemmed from Camryn and Serenity. Her parents, who had protected her all along, were in jail because of Camryn. She bore an irreconcilable grudge against Camryn and refused to witness her two enemies becoming the Yorks’ daughters-in-law.As for Trenton, he had been closer to Camryn than he was to Carrie since he was young. He always accused Carrie of bullying Camryn too. Carrie knew she could not count on Trenton to work with her. She was young and lacking in connections and capability. It seemed she had no choice but to join forces with other people. It did not matter whether what Mrs. Clark said was true. Anyone who was Serenity’s enemy could be her partner. The enemy of her enemy was an ally. Therefore, Carrie got into Mrs. Clark’s car. After the car started moving, Carrie asked, “Do you know how my aunts are doing now, Mrs. Clark? I can’t possibly seek revenge and

Half an hour later, Mrs. Clark brought Carrie to a motel. It was a small, mediocre motel. Although Carrie did not say anything, she mentally complained that Mrs. Clark was stingy for not giving her a room in a five-star hotel. Mrs. Clark booked a room for Carrie before ordering someone to bring a bag from the car and pass it to Carrie. She said, “These are new clothes. You can come back down here after bathing and changing. I’ll take you out for a meal.”Carrie accepted the bag and went to her room upstairs. Despite having spent some time in prison, the haughty nature she had from growing up in a privileged environment remained. She hated the motel. Carrie did not take a long time to wash up. She changed into the clothes Mrs. Clark had prepared for her after a quick shower. Then, she blew her hair dry and stared at her reflection in the mirror for some time before combing her hair. She had lost a lot of weight. However, she still looked beautiful as she was young.“I won’t

A hint of hatred flashed across Carrie’s eyes. She said, “In that kind of environment, most people get straightened out.“You mentioned you wanted me to provide you with information, Mrs. Clark. How much will you pay me?”Carrie was unemployed. After going to prison, her stuff was sent to her parents but belongings like her phone, bank card, and car keys were probably with Camryn when her parents were also jailed. While Carrie could retrieve those things from Camryn, she still had no say in Newman Enterprise. Not only was she unfamiliar with the company, but Camryn also had Dalton and Callum’s support.Moreover, Camryn had probably been entirely in charge of the Newmans’ family finances after being the head of the family for some time. Carrie felt disgusted at the thought of her needing to ask Camryn for her allowance. Mrs. Clark said gently, “You only have to find out information about Serenity and send it to me promptly. She’s the York family’s missus now. Everything she doe

Carrie thought, ‘I’ll have all the money I need after taking back what’s mine. Do I even need Mrs. Clark’s money?’Nevertheless, she hated Serenity and wished to see her suffer. Anyway, someone was willing to deal with Serenity now and Carrie simply had to gather some information without even needing to meet Serenity in person. She found it doable. Carrie said, “I’ll prove myself, but I was just released. My phone and bank cards are probably with Camryn now. We’ve been enemies ever since I can remember. She’ll never return those things to me. I need some money to work around.”Mrs. Clark handed a bank card to Carrie and said, “Of course. Here’s thirty thousand dollars for you to spend.“If you’re truly capable, you can go to the Newmans’ villa to take back what’s rightfully yours after this. Even if you fail, try getting your phone and bank card at least.”Carrie accepted the card and asked, “What’s the PIN?”“Six eights.”Carrie pocketed the bank card. Mrs. Clark was sting

Carrie cleared the food served on the table without minding her image at all. Mrs. Clark only managed to eat a few spoonfuls. She smiled as she watched Carrie gobbling everything down. After Carrie was done eating and wiping her mouth with a satisfied expression, Mrs. Clark asked, “Are you going back on your own, or shall I have someone send you?”“I’ll take the taxi, but I’m afraid you’ll have to pay the taxi fare upfront for me.”Mrs. Clark nodded. “Sure. You can take the taxi back.”She then handed Carrie a thousand dollars in cash and said, “This is for the taxi.”Carrie kept the money and did not linger any longer. She got up and told Mrs. Clark, “Thank you for the meal. Looking forward to a pleasant partnership.”Mrs. Clark nodded with a smile. “I believe we’ll work well together.”Carrie departed and Mrs. Clark paid the bill before leaving the diner upon seeing Carrie get into the taxi. Her subordinates were waiting for her. Once in her car, she said to the person in

After writing the prescription, Lilian passed it to Callum and said, “Do you still have the medicine I sent over previously? Get these newly prescribed ones and let Camryn have them with the previous medications.“I’ll examine her again when she’s done with the new prescription. Bring her out on strolls more often if you have time.”“Thank you, Dr. Carden,” Callum said earnestly. He would prepare Camryn’s medicine personally every day to ensure they were the right ones and had not been tampered with. Lilian teased Camryn about this before. Callum was the most attentive caregiver she had ever seen throughout her practice. She said Camryn would definitely have the sweetest and happiest life in the future.Spring finally arrived for Camryn when she met Callum as her life before him had been an endless, brutal winter. Although she received Dalton’s help later on, she had suffered a lot and was even abused when she was young. “The eye wash solution is running out, Dr. Carden. Does
