Chapter 389 Daphne’s Awake

+5 Pears

She knew her persistence with needle therapy, along with the spiritual essence, was working wonders.

There was no way she’d stop now, not when it was clearly helping her mother.

One day, her mother would recover and return to normal life.

Hendrix and Rory soon joined her upstairs.

For the first time in ages, the four of them were finally together as a family.

Daphne’s tears streamed silently as she gazed at her daughter.

Though conscious, she couldn’t move or speak—a prisoner in her own body except for her eyes.

She was desperate to say so much, to reveal what had happened, to ask about her family’s life.

Scarlett squeezed Daphne’s hand and said softly, “Mom, you don’t have to talk. I know who hurt you. Was it Matthew?”

Daphne’s eyes widened in shock, astonished her daughter knew the truth.

Thinking of her ex–husband filled Daphne with helpless fury.

That faithless man had even stolen their family’s heirlooms.

Scarlett’s voice was gentle. “Don’t worry, Mom. When you’re better, we’ll take him to court. He’s not doing well now, and his luck will only get worse. We’re only going to get better from here.”

She wasn’t exaggerating–Matthew was still scrambling for investors.

Leona and Hazel, after disturbing the Macks‘ tomb and trying to steal their fortune, had been exposed by Scarlett, and the backlash left them both sick and bedridden.

Daphne blinked again, signaling that she understood.

Scarlett launched into stories about their lives, choosing only the happy memories.

She didn’t mention the hardships she’d endured during her three years in show business.

She just smiled and said, “Mom, I’m an actress now. I have a lot of fans, and when you’re better, maybe my movie or drama will be out, so I’ll take you to see it.”

Daphne’s awakening filled the Sanchez family with joy.

Scarlett stayed home, devotedly caring for her mother.

She asked her father and brother not to tell anyone about Daphne’s recovery–it was best kept a secret for

now.

Her mother was still bedridden, and they couldn’t risk word reaching Matthew,

Chapter 389 Daphne’s Awake

+5 Pearls

Matthew had harmed Daphne for the family’s antiques.

If he knew Daphne was awake, his crimes could be exposed, and he wouldn’t hesitate to hurt her again.

And they couldn’t be on guard 24/7. They’d let things slip.

As long as Matthew didn’t know Daphne was conscious, he wouldn’t make another move.

For now, the news had to stay hidden.

Hendrix and Rory understood the stakes.

Scarlett had never told them before that Matthew was to blame for Daphne’s condition.

Now, she explained everything, saying she’d learned the truth while living in the Bailey house, but lacking evidence, they couldn’t press charges–they could only wait for Daphne to recover.

Father and son trembled with rage.

They knew there was nothing they could do for the moment.

All they could do was wait and trust that justice would catch up with Matthew.

Scarlett decided to spend the entire winter break at home with her mother.

During this time, Cedric called her.

rlett, there’s a short–term guest spot on a variety show, just ten days. You’d still be back before the

er starts. Interested?”

Starlett refused without hesitation.

“Mr. Joyner, not this time. I have other plans for the break, so I’m not taking any jobs.”

Cedric didn’t push her.

Scarlett spent her days cultivating and caring for her mother.

Word soon spread through the town that she was home.

Neighbors often stopped by to visit.

The Mack family, especially, sent her half a pig after their Christmas slaughter.

Tad delivered it personally.

“We’ve had great luck these past months, and it’s all thanks to you, Scarlett. You never took a penny, and we’re grateful. Stay home for Christmas, all right? Keep the pork, and in a few days we’ll bring you half a

lamb too.”

Tad often brought homemade dishes or treats to the Sanchez family.
