Chapter 76 68 +5 Free Coins Gilbert immediately helped her up and brought her a glass of water. “Sherry, have some water.” Sherry didn’t refuse. Her throat felt parched. She then ate something. “What did you do with them?” She finally asked a question. Gilbert said, “Jean was sent abroad. Liam and the Hunts are almost bankrupt, being chased by debt collectors everywhere, worse off than street dogs. As for Teresa, she was disciplined by the Campbells.” Hearing this, Sherry smiled wryly, as if she’d heard a joke. “Disciplined?” Sherry’s smile seemed to mock him as well. “Edward brought it up himself. I guarantee…’ “I’ve told you many times. They would never punish Teresa.” “No. Edward assured me. He’s a man of integrity.” Having him take over the Campbell family was the best decision he could have made. “Integrity? Do you believe he’ll find all sorts of excuses not to punish Teresa the moment he turns around?” “Impossible!” Gilbert was confident in his judgment. Edward wasn’t a liar. “Sherry, Edward did this hoping you could let go of your grudges with them. How could he possibly break his promise?” “He won’t do it. I won’t let this go. Since you’re unwilling to take action, I’ll do it myself!” “Sherry, can you stop judging people? Don’t assume others’ faults just because you’re angry.” Women are just too emotional. “I know you men all too well. Once a woman sheds a tear, you can’t bring yourself to punish her. Edward is the same, unable to distinguish right from wrong!” Gilbert frowned. “How are we unable to distinguish right from wrong? Don’t assume others’ faults based on your own malicious thoughts. Sherry, stop being unreasonable! Be forgiving. Do you have to make a scene?” Why was she so fixated on this? Why didn’t she ask Wendy? He desperately wanted to tell her that from now on, Wendy was no longer an obstacle between them. Besides, why did she distrust her family so much? A promise made without commitment doesn’t count. But how could she not trust his promise? Gilbert believed there was a reason Sherry was being targeted. She wasn’t completely innocent. Sherry had completely given up hope on Gilbert. 1/3 Sat, Chapter 76 Just like she wouldn’t ask Wendy. Because she knew Gilbert wouldn’t punish Wendy. Relying on anyone else was not as good as relying on herself. “Give me the camera.” She had to repair the damage she had suffered herself. 68 +5 Free Coins Gilbert continued, “Everything’s been resolved. What do you need that thing for? Looking at it will only remind you of bad things. You know that…” “I want the camera.” Sherry stubbornly insisted. Gilbert’s face darkened. “You don’t trust me to handle this for you?” “No,” Sherry said, enunciating each word clearly, “At least Teresa and Wendy won’t get the punishment they deserve.” “About Wendy…” Gilbert wanted to be frank. Sherry interrupted. “I don’t want to hear you talk about her. I just want the camera. Since you can’t do it, I think the police can give me justice.” “You’re going to call the police?” Gilbert was extremely surprised. “Why can’t I call the police?” She had been cowardly before. The Campbells said they didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. Otherwise, everyone would know Claire was useless, unable to distinguish between good and bad people, letting her own daughter suffer so much. Claire already had little standing in this circle.
