Mrs. Shaffer's heart went cold when she heard this.
"Dad, do you want the Shaffer family to have no descendants as much Cody Shaffer does?"
"No. But with what the Shaffer family has done over the years, do you think it will be possible for its descendants to survive?"
Chad Shaffer's eyes opened with heartache.
In fact, no one would be more heartbroken than he was.
He had been wise and brilliant all his life, but both of his sons' merits were lost out by Cody Shaffer, and now he was burdened with stigma.
He knew better than anyone that if this incident was exposed, no one, not to mention Mr. Hill, could save the Shaffer family.
And over the years, had anyone in the Shaffer family been clean?
If there was a thorough investigation, the Shaffer family would be scattered, and no one would escape, including his daughter-in-law.
He knew that Mrs. Shaffer had suffered in the Shaffer family over the years, but she had also helped Cody Shaffer do some bad things for the sake of her child's well-being, and Cody Shaffer had just threatened her with these things.
Neither of them could get away with it.
Perhaps it was because of this that Mrs. Shaffer planned to see Cara one last time while she was still unconscious.
Chad Shaffer had mixed feelings now.
Mrs. Shaffer froze for a moment and then understood what Chad Shaffer meant. She said with a bitter smile, "So now Cara is known by them?"
"What do you think could be hidden from Mr. Hill and Mr. Morty?"
Chad Shaffer's words were tantamount to shattering all hope in Mrs. Shaffer's heart.
Did they know?
So she couldn't even keep her daughter, could she?
No!
No way!
All these years, she was the one who had done all the bad things, and her daughter was innocent!
She had sent her away because she wanted her to have a life of her own, but why couldn't she do that in the end?
Twenty years of separation had brought no peace to her daughter, so what had she been living for these twenty years?
Mrs. Shaffer suddenly had an emotional breakdown.
Looking at her daughter-in-law like this, Chad Shaffer also felt bad in his heart. He turned his head away and looked out into the thick darkness of the night. He knew that the dawn would not last long and that the Shaffer family would not survive much longer.
Rather than let others expose the Shaffer family, ...
Chad Shaffer's eyes flickered, and his heart ached so much that he choked, but he still opened his mouth.
"You get something on Cody for all those things he did, don't you?"
"Dad?"
Mrs. Shaffer was completely shocked.
Chad Shaffer never lived at home but was always by Mr. Hill's side. They all thought he knew nothing about what was going on at home. But now that he knew, did that mean Mr. Hill knew too?
Mrs. Shaffer's mind was racing.

What is it with Chinese authors. The characters are slow, he finally opened his mouth, it took him so long just to say two words...the house keeper would have put the person out before he even spoke....is this really how people are over there..the characters are always lost in thought, they might as well live in their heads.....
