“Liberty.”
Caroline walked over, standing in front of Liberty, and solemnly apologized, “Liberty, my mom is getting
old and sometimes acts a bit confused. What she says and does can be a bit excessive. I apologize on
behalf of my mom.”
Liberty responded, “This matter has nothing to do with you, Ms. Fisher. If Madam Fisher doesn’t
consider me a guest, then there’s no need for me to stay any longer. I’ll take my leave.”
With that, she led her bodyguards, bypassed Caroline, and headed outside.
Belinda was infuriated by Caroline and irritated by Liberty’s assertiveness.
When she went to visit the Stones in Wiltspoon, Audrey had requested her to allow Liberty to compete
with Caroline and to treat Liberty as the legitimate heir of the Fisher family, providing her with the status
and treatment befitting the position.
Belinda was not willing, knowing that Liberty’s arrival was part of a scheme to secure her position as
the successor. So, Belinda intentionally hosted a family banquet and invited Liberty over, but also
wanted to use her seniority to suppress Liberty.
However, Liberty did not see them as her seniors at all. In her mind, she was invited by the Fisher
family and treated poorly, and with that, she had no reason to stay.
If the host did not welcome her, why bother staying?
Liberty would leave naturally.
She did not come here on her own accord; it was Belinda who sent someone to invite her, and that was
why she came.novelbin

At the doorway, just as Liberty was about to leave, Belinda finally spoke up.
She then rose and walked over with Caroline.
After taking a deep breath, Belinda made an effort to adjust her emotions. She spoke gently, “Liberty,
your grandmother is my older sister, and she raised me. I am your grandaunt and also the current head
of the Fisher family. You are indeed my junior.
“Everyone in this house is your elder… Indeed, if my sister weren’t dead, you would have been the
successor, seeing that you’re of her bloodline. In the Fisher family, the position of the successor is
second only to the matriarch.
“You don’t have to observe the etiquette of juniors in front of everyone. Even though you’re currently
not the successor, you’re still the descendant of my sister. Just now, well, I did indeed show a lack of
courtesy.
“I’m almost seventy-one now, I might’ve gotten senile of old age, please don’t mind me. Tonight, you’re
here in the Fisher household as a distinguished guest!”
Suppressing her anger, Belinda apologized to Liberty and invited her back again.
For a person as dignified as Belinda to bow her head and invite her back into the house, Liberty found
it hard to believe that there were no ulterior motives.
Liberty came prepared, fully aware of what she might encounter.
She graciously accepted Belinda’s gesture of inviting her back. She returned to the hall with her
security team surrounding her.
Then, everyone else in the Fisher family stood up in unison, no longer daring to abuse their privilege as
seniors.
They started making adjustments to the seating arrangement.
Liberty shared equal footing with Caroline. She was a guest, and also the descendant of the previous
matriarch. She was supposed to be the rightful successor. Therefore, she had the right to be on equal
footing with Caroline.
The only person who ranked above her in this family was Belinda.
Caroline looked at her mother, then turned her eyes to Liberty. She addressed the elders in the room,
“In the future, treat Liberty with the same courtesy you would extend to me.”
