Mr. Longbottom had promised Carrie. She had to kidnap Mrs. Young-Johnson’s adopted son once they verified his identity. If she could accomplish that, he would give her all of the Newman family assets and let her do whatever she wanted to Serenity.
Mr. Longbottom never told her that his promises were worthless.
There was no knowing if Carrie would still be alive after the deed was done. He would never make an enemy out of the Yorks and Buchams for her sake.
The bodyguards were aware of that. However, they were assigned to watch Carrie and assist her. It was not their place to reveal anything else.
He would just let Carrie dream on.
Otherwise, how would she be motivated to help Mr. Longbottom?
After pursing her lips, Carrie said, “I understand. Why are you guys so cold to me? You still have to address me respectfully before others.”
While the bodyguards treated her with respect in front of others, they were like her managers in private and kept controlling her.
They were highly skilled in fighting as well. On the other hand, Carrie was powerless. She could never escape their grasp.
Whenever they attacked her, they would do so without hesitation or sympathy.
Even if Carrie complained about it to Mr. Longbottom, he would advise her not to offend the bodyguards. His excuse was that the bodyguards were barbarians who did not have an ounce of gentleness in them. They even took lives before.
That had scared Carrie. She dared not anger them anymore after that.
“You’ve shown yourself to Serenity as a new person today. After this, you should return to being Carrie and provoke your sister. Making your presence known will prevent them from suspecting you.”
If Carrie Newman had disappeared when an unfamiliar Mrs. Longbottom showed up, some people could draw a connection between them easily.
