"Sis, have you ever thought about Cole's feelings when he finds out that you want to leave?" Chloe persuaded.
Mrs. Yorks chuckled. "Well, if Angeline can give up on the man she loved for two lifetimes, then what does that prove? It proves that Yorks Stronghold is a place where hatred is greater than love. It means that this is our living hell, and we won't hesitate to pay the price t o escape from the rotten system here."
The afterglow of the setting sun shrouded the thin backs of three women. They walked on the long path and moved forward step by step.
Suddenly, a car pulled up next to them.
Carson jumped out of the car door and opened the door to the backseat like a gentleman.
Mrs. Yorks and Angeline got into the car. When it was Shirley's turn, Carson said a few words to Sis Shirley stiffly, "Sis Shirley, Young Master asked me to pass you a message."
Shirley stared suspiciously at Carson and then saw him dropping his head before saying, "I'm sorry."
Tears welled up in Sis Shirley's eyes. "Tell him that this isn't his fault."
Sis Shirley glanced meaningfully at Spencer in the
distance and continued, "The God of Destiny makes fools of the people. I don't blame him.”
Carson nodded.
With a crisp sound of the car horn, Angeline, Mrs.
Yorks, and Sis Shirley drifted farther and farther away from Mount Pearl.
