Chapter 2129

Celine was dumbfounded. She only spoke one sentence. Was Caroline, who always rendered her

speechless at home, actually upset?

Caroline even ran into the house aggrievedly. Was she going to tattle to their mother?

With that thought, Celine quickly jogged into the house. She could not let Caroline snatch the

opportunity of tattling to Mom.

Was the country bumpkin changing her strategy of fighting for affection?

When Celine entered the house, she saw Caroline sitting beside Mom. Caroline was speaking, but she

stopped when she saw Celine entering.

It was obvious that she had been tattling on Celine to their mom.

Their parents, brothers, and sisters-in-law’s expressions looked slightly off.

“Mom.”

Celine walked over quickly and squeezed herself between Caroline and their mother. She forcefully

pushed Caroline aside.

Next, she circled her hands around her mom’s arm intimately and said, “Mom, don’t listen to Caroline’s

nonsense. I didn’t do anything to her. She was the one who kept kicking or hitting my car and causing it

to ring non-stop. I just told her off nicely.”

Madam Fisher said, “Oh, I see. Caroline didn’t say anything about that though.”

Celine turned to look at Caroline. She told her mom, “Wasn’t she tattling on me to you? Why did she

look so upset just now?”

Madam Fisher glanced at her biological daughter, who kept silent. She explained in Caroline’s stead,

“Your elder sister didn’t tattle on you. She did come in looking upset, but that’s because she’s sad

about driving an old car. She doesn’t have a new car and said your car’s much better than hers.

“Carol, tell your sister to accompany you to the car dealer to get a new one. You can buy whichever

model you want. Don’t say that I’m biased toward your sister.”

Madam Fisher looked annoyed when she said that, but she still promised Caroline a new car.

She also made Celine accompany Caroline to buy a new car.

Upon hearing that Mom was buying Caroline a new car, Celine felt sour. She pouted and said, “Mom,

although her car isn’t new, how old can the cars in our garage get? It’s good enough that she has a car

to drive, yet she’s asking for a new one.

“What if she’s bad at driving and clumsily hit someone after switching to a new car? People from the

countryside are rough.”

“I may have grown up in the country, but I’m no longer one of them because I’ve returned to my

biological family. What about you, Celine? When will your registered residence be revised to your

biological parents’ address? You’ll become the rough country bumpkin when that time comes.”

Caroline’s words caused Celine’s expression to change.

If Celine were to return to her biological parents’ side, she would indeed become a country bumpkin.novelbin

“Mom.”

Celine said sweetly, “Look, Mom. Caroline’s chasing me away. You said before that you can’t bear for

me to leave.”

“Caroline, you don’t have a say in family matters yet. You scared Celine.” Madam Fisher’s husband,

who was also Caroline’s biological father, scolded her with a stern face.

Next, he told Celine, “Don’t worry, Cece. As long as your mom and I are still alive, Caroline can’t make

any decisions for this family.”

Caroline’s brothers supported their father’s statement. They all criticized her.

Emma also said, “You’re the youngest of your siblings, Caroline. It’s not your place to take charge of

the family.”

“Why not? I’m the young lady of the Fishers and the one who’ll be the matriarch in the future. Doesn’t

the matriarch have absolute power in this family? Are you guys the decision-makers? Do you have the

authority for the final say, Dad? Or do you have it, brothers?

“You can’t even be taken into consideration, sisters-in-law. You all are merely outsiders to our family.”

Caroline’s retort caused a drastic change in the expressions of everyone present. However, they could

not even utter a word of refute.

A man’s speech might have carried more weight in other families.
