Logan was shocked. “That Salvador girl has a mental illness?!”
“Yes, Grandpa.”
A sinister light flashed across Zoe’s eyes. “The Salvador family has kept Carrie’s illness from you all this time. She has severe autism, a mental illness. I was in the same junior high as her. At that time, the other students called her an idiot and a fool behind her back. She dropped out of school halfway through because of her illness.”
“No wonder… I felt she was strange. She’s already in her early twenties, but she still behaves like a child. There’s a problem with her brain? Shannon’s offspring are indeed defective spawns! She died but left her dumb daughter to my precious grandson?! Cough…”
Logan was so mad that he could not stop coughing, his face turning red.
Zoe quickly patted his back. “Grandpa, calm down! Your health is more important!”
“Your brother… Does he know?”
“He knows everything.”
Logan got even more mad, utterly bewildered. “And he still wants to marry her?! Is he crazy? Isn’t he afraid that their child would be born mentally ill too?! I don’t understand... What kind of woman can’t he get? Why must he obsess over a fool?!”
“Ryan must be deceived by Carrie’s pure and innocent appearance. He’s had too many luxurious delicacies, so he naturally finds simple things irresistible once in a while.” Zoe’s tone carried a hint of disdain.
Logan’s eyes reddened with anger, and he kept hitting the sofa’s armrest. “The Salvador family is full of liars! Trying to stuff their unwanted daughter to the Hoffman family... They can dream on! As long as I’m alive, I will never let that girl marry my grandson! Tomorrow morning, I’ll meet Nigel and call off the engagement.”
“Grandpa, that’s not the right approach.”
Zoe knelt on one knee at Logan’s feet, holding his shaking hands in her palm to soothe him. “If you suddenly meet Old Master Nigel, Ryan will immediately hear the news. You know how he is. At that time, chaos will ensue, and he’s also close to Mr. Salvador. His heart is with the outsiders, so we’ll be hurt in the end.”
“Zoe, you’re truly considerate and smart!”
The academy experienced such a major crisis, but in an orderly environment, it seemed that the storm would soon subside, no matter how big it was.
The surveillance footage was deleted, and nobody was at the scene when it happened. Due to the pressure from the Hoffman family, the academy kept Carrie’s identity and her being taken hostage a secret.
Carrie’s peaceful life was all crafted by Ryan.
If possible, Ryan really wanted to build a flawless ivory tower to hide and protect his lover, like a greenhouse flower.
But what he did not know was that the shocking conversation Carrie overheard that night outside the study had slightly cracked the glass walls of the greenhouse.
Perhaps it would end there, but it might also gradually spread, like a spider web. Finally, it might cover the entire greenhouse and shatter it.
Yasmin accompanied Carrie every day, watching her like a hawk.
