Chapter 131
Chapter 131 Elizabeth Was a Thief Mary and Carter sent the parents to the hotel together. Sherry’s mother was in poor health. Previously, when she was in the Notman family, she had been holding strong. The moment she left the Notman family, she was like a deflated ball, extremely weak. Now that Sherry had become like that for Mary, Mary felt that it was necessary for her to take good care of her family on behalf of Sherry. Thus, she kept taking care of Sherry’s mother in the hotel. “Mrs. Notman, stop being busy.” Sherry’s mother leaned on the head of the bed and gently stroked her chest, “This is an old problem for me. I’ll be fine after I rest for a while.” “You have a noble status, so don’t take care of me, or you’ll lose your prestige.” Her words made Mary pause slightly. A moment later, she sighed. “Auntie, don’t say that.” “Although I am William’s wife, I am also Sherry’s friend.” “It is my duty to take care of you.” At the mention of Sherry, Sherry’s mother coughed even harder. “Get up.” At the side, Carter glanced coldly at Mary. His voice was low and cold. “My mother is overly sad. She will be fine after resting for a while.” “Don’t get in the way here.” After saying that, the youth rolled his eyes coldly and turned to open the door of the room. “Let’s go.” Mary pursed her lips. Carter’s actions always made her feel uncomfortable. “Mrs. Notman, you can go back.”
Sherry’s mother leaned against the headboard and continued, “It’s already so late. You haven’t eaten yet, right?” “It’s all my fault…” After she finished speaking, she glanced at Carter. “Send Mrs. Notman back. Do you hear me?” “Okay.” Carter curled his lips. “I will definitely send her back even without you telling me.” Chapter 131 Elizabeth Was a Thief “No matter what, she is a weak woman. Even if I hate the Notman family, I won’t leave her alone.” The young man opened the door and looked at Mary again. “Please.” Since they had already said this, it was not good for Mary to continue staying here. She looked at
Sherry’s mother and took a deep breath. “Auntie.” “I know that there are some things that should not be said by me, but I still want to say “Although Alexander is not very good at talking and is also very strange.” “However, he was the one who proposed to marry Sherry, and he was also the one who took the initiative to fight against his family for Sherry.” “Also, the problem of shares that you care about is not that Alexander wants to marry Sherry for the sake of the shares. It is my husband who is afraid that Alexander’s parents will disagree and make things difficult for him. So he promised to use ten percent of the shares as a congratulatory gift for Alexander’s marriage.” “There is no such thing as Alexander marrying Sherry for money.” She especially came over to explain this matter to Sherry’s family. After all, Alexander would not take the initiative to explain, and William could not chase after them, so this matter could only be done by her. “Even if he isn’t doing it for money, what about his parents?” “Aren’t they doing it for money?” Carter rolled his eyes. “Moreover, didn’t you hear what his mother said?” “But, Sherry married Alexander.” Mary bit her lips. “You can’t judge a child with his parents, right?” She took a deep breath. “Then can you see that my mother left me when I was born and my father is an alcoholic?” “I have foster parents.” “My foster parents are greedy. For the sake of money, they forced me to repay their kindness of raising me and to marry William.” “If we follow the logic that like mother, like son, I should be a profit-oriented, morally corrupt, and irresponsible person, right?” Her words caused the entire room to fall silent. Sherry’s parents looked at Mary in shock. What they were shocked about was not only Mary’s background, but also the courage of this girl. They had only met today at the Notman family.. Chapter 131 Elizabeth Was a Thief She was, however, willing to be honest when a disagreement occurred and to reveal all of her past to them. Her sincerity made Carter feel a little embarrassed to continue speaking ill of her. After a while, the youth curled his lips. “Why are you saying so much?” “Are you leaving or not?” “Let’s go.” Mary bit her lips before bowing and saying goodbye to Sherry’s parents. She turned around and left with Carter.
Coming out of the hotel, Mary saw that there was a dumpling restaurant opposite the hotel. She remembered that when Sherry participated in the program, she once said that she liked dumplings the most, and her younger brother also liked dumplings the most. So she pursed her lips and directly pulled Carter into the dumpling restaurant. “It’s already so late. Uncle and Aunt haven’t eaten yet.” Her reason completely convinced Carter. The youth unwillingly sat down opposite Mary. The dumplings were cooked very slowly. Mary could not help chatting with Carter. The content of the chat naturally could not be separated from Sherry. “She will get better.” Carter poured himself a cup of water and sipped it gently. “My sister is the most sensible.” “She won’t let my mother lose two daughters in a few years.” Two daughters? “You have an older sister?” Mary frowned. Carter’s body paused slightly. “Sort of.” “But she isn’t my parent’s biological daughter.” “It’s Elizabeth.” Elizabeth? “She’s your sister too?” Mary widened her eyes in shock. “Yes.” Carter’s face was now filled with attachment to Sherry. “My sister was kidnapped and Chapter 131 Elcabeth Was a Thief sold when she was young, but in the end, she escaped from the human traffickers by herself.” “Later, she was sent to the orphanage.” “She met Elizabeth at the orphanage. They were like sisters.” “Later, when the police took my parents to find her, she asked my parents to adopt Elizabeth.” “So. “Later, my mother took her home and raised her like a biological daughter.” “But…” “You saw it now,” he said, lowering his head. “My sister gave Elizabeth a family, giving her hope of living again.” “But what Elizabeth did in return was that there was always a place in the heart of the man my sister loved the most.” His words made Mary sigh and especially wanted to cry out for Sherry. But on second thought… “Actually, this is not Elizabeth’s fault.” “She might not have expected it either.” “HowProperty © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
could she not have anticipated it?” “She’s a thief,” Carter sneered. Mary pursed her lips. Before she could ask Elizabeth what exactly she had stolen from Sherry, the dumplings were already cooked. Carter stood up with the dumplings in his hands and waved goodbye to Mary with a smile, The moment he turned around, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something. He turned his head and smiled coldly, “Elizabeth stole my sister’s most important thing.”
