Chapter 2497
Belinda was stunned.
Train Liberty?
She could never do that.
She had been the matriarch for so long. Even if she were to retire, she would let her biological daughter
inherit the position. Caroline was her true daughter. She was more capable than Celine and picked up
everything quickly.
More importantly, Caroline was cunning enough. She knew to play dumb and used it to her advantage.
Did she not manage to trick everyone in Jensburg?
Everyone thought she was weak, saying she grew up in the countryside and had limited knowledge.
Even if she had returned to the Fisher family, she was still useless. The outstanding results she
produced were all thanks to the capable individuals in her team.
Belinda seemed to be biased toward Celine and treated Caroline in a hostile manner.
In truth, however, she had adjusted her emotions quickly upon discovering Celine was not her
daughter. She accepted that Caroline was her biological daughter without much hesitation.
Belinda was old and almost at the age of retirement. Usually, even heads of families who were still
healthy would retire before they hit eighty. It was to prevent themselves from making undesirable
decisions due to old age that would affect the future of the family.
Since Caroline did not grow up by Belinda’s side, Belinda cooperated with Caroline after realizing she
had been playing dumb all along. It was to aid Caroline in familiarizing herself with everything as soon
as possible.
Belinda only managed to be the matriarch after killing her sisters. She already had a successor as well.
Returning the position to Tiara’s daughter was impossible.
Audrey laughed at Belinda’s speechless look. Her laughter sounded sarcastic to Belinda.
Belinda had always thought that the way Audrey carried herself was similar to Tiara's; something that
remained unchanged after decades.novelbin
Belinda thought of her daughter. Although Caroline was more talented than Celine, she was still inferior
compared to Audrey. Audrey had gained the trust of her father-in-law and husband after marrying into
the Stone family. She was able to make important decisions for Stone Group and had lots of
experience.
Caroline, on the other hand, was too young.
Belinda was frustrated. Was the bloodline of the Fisher family’s eldest daughter always superior?
Was Liberty not of Tiara’s bloodline as well?
Aside from a failed marriage, Liberty seemed capable in other aspects. However, she was not as
decisive as Audrey was in her younger days.
Actually, Elisa could be a successful career woman. However, she was unwilling to embark on that
journey. Her casual personality and straightforward way of speaking would easily come off as offensive
to people if she were to be the matriarch.
Nevertheless, with Elisa’s background, there was no need for her to be diplomatic. She never had to
worry about trouble after offending someone.
“Drey, I prepared some supplements since your daughter-in-law had just given birth. It’s for her to
nourish her body.”
Belinda changed the topic.
Audrey did not want to continue that conversation as well. She knew Belinda would never pass the
position of matriarch to someone else or let Liberty replace Caroline.
She simply wanted to find out Belinda’s thoughts. With that knowledge, she would not have to be
merciful when seeking her revenge in the future.
Of course, even if Belinda put on a touching act, she would still be merciless regardless.
