Chapter 140 Self-esteem and Self-confidence
Hearing Caroline's words, those present began to speak in whispers.
"You're talking a load of crap! He is my father. When did I insult him?" Raymond fulminated against Caroline.
"Didn't you? You know what grandpa minded most was Living Hope Foundation when he was alive, but you sold it to others!
"You're humiliating grandpa!"
"Raymond, you care for nothing but money! Grandpa had high hopes for Living Hope Foundation! You sold it at such a low price! You said that grandpa would be pleased if he knew. Aren't you insulting his intelligence, his moral character and his ability? Am I wrong?"
Caroline scolded Raymond from the bottom of her heart, mixing with many complicated feelings!
The man she called father was so disappointing!
"How dare you talk to me like that!"
"What should I do with Living Hope Foundation is none of your business! You are an outsider!"
Raymond glared at Caroline in an uncontrollable rage. "If your grandfather were alive, he would be angry with you! Don't forget you used to be a prisoner!"
Caroline trembled all over. In such an occasion, Raymond hinted everyone she was no longer the member of the Jameson family, and she was a murderer, a prisoner who came out of prison!
It was generally known that domestic shame should not be made public. However, Raymond already said that she was an "outsider"!
Caroline clenched her fists. Could she refute him? How could she refute him? What position could she take?
With a feeling of tiredness hitting her, she closed her eyes and opened them. The light that had just dimmed in her eyes lit up slightly again. She forced herself to raise her spirits.
"Mr. Jameson, if grandpa were still alive, he would protect me with all his might, because he trusted me from beginning to end!"
Tears glimmered in Caroline's eyes. Now, all people's attention was on the farce. No one noticed that Caroline, one of the protagonists of the incident, was getting pale.
Nathan had been standing aside, but he came over at the moment. "Stop it." He walked up to Caroline, standing six feet away from her. His handsome face was covered with anger.
"Pack it in. Do you want the Jameson family to become a laughingstock in Lehcaster again?"
"Grandpa spoiled you. He took you with him and taught you personally. Although he was wise all his life, he didn't judge you correctly. He always said that you are the most brilliant one in our generation, but he did nothing wrong except to trust you."
"I guess grandpa had never thought that you would make so many mistakes. If he knew what you did, he wouldn't trust you and protect you."
"Callie, don't always think that someone will protect you. You got what you deserved. It is nobody's fault but your own."
Caroline was trembling with anger. After Nathan finished speaking, she calmed down, raising her head and quietly looking at the handsome man in front of her for a while. Suddenly, she chuckled.
