Chapter 749
Old Mrs. Wright glared at Dora.
“You really didn’t keep a single dollar?”
Seeing Dora’s expression, she grew even angrier.
At this point, she did not care about anything else.
She only wanted to know whether there was any money left.
Then Dora said, “No.”
That answer nearly sent Old Mrs. Wright into a rage.
They had failed to hold on to a single thing from the Wright family.
Not even money.
“How are we supposed to live from now on?
“How could you be so stupid? You could’ve hidden something valuable in the house…
“Stella brought more than twenty people with her. We couldn’t even get upstairs. How was I supposed to hide anything?”
Dora finally snapped.
Was it really her fault that not a single dollar had been left behind?
Had the rest of them kept any money either?
Why was it suddenly all being pinned on her?
Old Mrs. Wright said, “You…”
“Mom, I know you’re angry. But the Wright family didn’t end up like this because of me alone.”
“Who else is responsible, then? You’re the one who caused her mother’s death. This all started because of you!”
Old Mrs. Wright shouted at Dora even more fiercely.
Every bit of this had started with Dora.
And now she was claiming she was not the only one to blame?
“Yes, I caused her mother’s death. But everything I did was for the Wright family!”
“If it hadn’t been for the family, if it hadn’t been for Harold taking control of the Wrights, would I ever have done any of it?”
She had done those things for the Wright family.
How could they blame her alone now?
Old Mrs. Wright glared at her.
“Harold, say something!”

Old Mrs. Wright had been yelling at Dora for ages, while Harold had not said a word.
Was he deaf?
Thinking about the life Harold had built for himself overseas made Dora’s chest ache even more.
How could he treat her this way?
She had been the one left behind in Harbor City, taking all the pressure alone while he lived comfortably abroad..
And now, while his mother tore into her, he showed no sign of defending her.
After all these years of marriage, Dora suddenly felt none of it had been worth it.
Harold gave her a cold look.
There was nothing in his eyes that resembled the way a husband should look at his wife.
Dora felt even worse.
“What do you want me to say?” Harold asked. “Do you want me to say that things ended up like this because of how badly you treated Stella?”
“You…”
Harold’s words left Dora struggling to breathe.
He was blaming her too.
Anyone in the Wright family could blame her.
But what right did Harold have?
She had stood by his side all these years, doing everything he could not do openly himself.
Everyone else could accuse her.
But not him.
“Harold, you’ve truly disappointed me.”
Tears slipped down Dora’s face.
No matter what Stella had done to her lately, or how the Wright family had mocked and ridiculed her, Dora had
never cried.
She had never felt this hopeless.
But faced with Harold’s coldness, she finally broke.
Harold looked away. “Mom is right. The Wright family ended up like this because of you.”
