Caroline said, “What’s the fun in going alone? It's more fun to have Ava and Ellie join in. If Mom comes back and sees us, you three won’t be solely responsible, and Mom won’t do anything to you.”
“Even though Mom drove her away in anger and said she was no longer a Fisher, what can Mom do if Celine does not cooperate? She definitely won’t change her surname. She’s very disdainful toward her biological parents. When her true mother came to see her, she dismissed her like a beggar.”
Caroline knew how Celine treated her biological mother when she came looking for Celine last time.
“Celine’s mother treated her so poorly, she deserves to be rejected by Celine.”
“I’m afraid that after Mom calms down, if Celine sheds a few tears, and acts pitiful, Mom might soften up.”
Emma said in shock, “Even in this situation, Mom might allow her to come back?”
“I’m saying just in case.”
Thinking about Caroline being treated indulgently by Belinda, Emma nodded. “There’s a slight possibility. I’ll message Ava and Ellie and ask if they want to witness Celine’s predicament.”
Last night, none of them dared to go outside to see.
After they dragged Celine out and left her at the estate’s gates, they returned to their rooms right away, not daring to stay any longer.
They needed to keep a low profile and avoid adding fuel to the fire that was Belinda’s wrath, which could burn down the entire Fisher family.
“Emma, I’m going for a run.”
“On such a cold day, you’re up so early for a run. I admire your determination, and consistency. I can’t get up for a run. Look at how my belly is growing bigger.”
Emma patted her slightly pudgy belly.
“You’re maintaining your figure quite well, considering how many women start gaining weight and have trouble controlling once they reach middle age. As long as you control your diet, you’ll slim down.”
