Female Novel
Chapter 2522
Belinda furrowed her brows and finally answered Celine’s call.
“Mom…”novelbin
As soon as the call connected, Celine cried out.
“What happened, Cece? Who’s bothering you? Tell Mom, and when I get back, I’ll take care of it for
you.”
Despite her frown, Belinda’s words were filled with affection, as if nothing in the world could harm her
adopted daughter with her protection.
“Mom, when are you coming back? While you’ve been away, I’ve been tormented by Caroline. She
bullies me and constantly infuriates me. She’s wicked. Every time she harms me, she puts on an
innocent act.
“Not to mention me, even Dad can’t eat or sleep well because of her. He’s lost weight because of her. I
feel so sorry for him.
“She’s also sowing discord between my brothers and their wives. She made them argue every day to
the point where Emma asked Adrian for a divorce.”
Belinda sighed. “Does Caroline have that much influence? She’s just a klutz. If she had that kind of
ability to drive all of you crazy, I wouldn’t have to worry about the succession issue. Sigh, she didn’t
grow up by my side, and I didn’t raise her. No matter how I try to educate her, it’s difficult. If I’m strict,
the public would accuse me of favoritism.”
Celine sobbed and said, “Mom, Caroline is so cunning. She’s a wicked person.”
“You said Caroline is sowing discord and is causing arguments among your brothers and sisters-in-law.
What did she say or do?”
Celine replied, “My brothers have mistresses, and she revealed this to my sisters-in-law, leading to
arguments. Men like my brothers, who are successful and good-looking, often keep some side chicks.
It’s not a big deal.
“How many people out there have mistresses or side chicks? My brothers just have one each, they’re
merely playthings and not a threat. They can’t even compare to those high-class women. I’ve known
about it for a long time.”
Belinda was also aware of it.
Belinda controlled Hunter, by not giving him any allowance and preventing him from cheating. She felt
that men would go astray when they had money.
Hunter often found himself possessing not even five hundred dollars.
However, when it came to her sons, Belinda often would turn a blind eye. She felt that her sons were
capable, and her daughters-in-law should be the ones keeping their husbands faithful.
“I accidentally bumped into Caroline’s car, and she demanded that I pay the repair fees. I said we are
family; why should I pay her? Then I went shopping. When I was at the checkout, I found my bank card
had been frozen.
“Mom, what right does she have to freeze my card? You can’t imagine how embarrassing it was for me,
I’m so pissed. Mom, please come back immediately. When you’re not at home, I’m constantly being
tormented by her.”
Celine was no longer the heir of the Fisher family. Deep down, she knew she could not inherit a single
penny of the family’s wealth.
Hence, she planned to use Belinda’s affection and pampering to her advantage. She splurged every
day on luxury items, in hopes of making a fortune out of them.
Long story short, she was aiming to secure her future.
Caroline wanted Celine to return to her mother, Carmen, but there was no way Celine would have
accepted it.
Even if Carmen came to see her, she would not acknowledge her and would just give her some money
to get rid of her.
Celine insisted that she was a Fisher, wanting to live in luxury and bask in wealth and status.
As long as Belinda was alive, she would never lack money.
As long as Caroline did not become the heir, there was still hope left for her.
Belinda had always favored Celine, having raised and taught her—these were something Caroline
could not compete with.
Caroline's only advantage was simply inheriting Fisher's blood.
Celine’s sisters-in-law encouraged her to fight until the very end. Even if Caroline became the heir, they
told her to never give up. There would still be opportunities.
In their eyes, Caroline was just a weakling and not worthy of the name Fisher.
