If she had not slandered Cordelia, that Shadow Garden assassin would not have appeared. If the assassin had not appeared, she would not have been bitten by the seven–colored centipede. If she had not been bitten by the seven–colored centipede, Wilfred would not have died so quickly.
In other words, even if Wilfred was fated to die from the seven–colored centipede eventually, he could have led the Chalker family to expand their influence to the cities neighboring Jadeborough while he was alive.
Essentially, they saw Angelina as the reason for the Chalker family’s downfall.
When Angelina saw their angry gazes, she paled drastically.
That was not the worst.
The worst was that Emrys was already on his way toward her. The terrifying pressure in the air around him was suffocating her.
“Angelina, didn’t I tell you not to cross me? Why did you have to play with fire?”
Emrys‘ voice was like the devil’s.
Thump!
Frightened, Angelina felt her knees buckling, and she collapsed to the ground. The bottom of her skirt was damp.
As Emrys apathetically looked at her, he said, “I don’t know what gave you the confidence to compare yourself to Delia. If Delia is the brilliant moon in the sky, then you, Angelina, are just a glowworm on the ground. Who do you think you are to act so arrogantly?”
One mistake would lead to more mistakes down the road.
If Angelina had not made things even tougher for Cordelia Group back when Cordelia Group was in a crisis, then she would not be in this situation at that moment.
If she had not chosen to marry into the Chalker family and had not chosen to take revenge on Cordelia, then with her beauty, she would have led a comfortable life.
Alas, of all the choices to make, she chose the worst path to take.
One could only say that her jealousy was incredibly terrifying, but it was also her downfall.
“Please! Please don’t say anymore…”
Angelina gripped her head in despair as tears fell from her eyes. Her makeup was running, and she looked like a mess.

Chapter 111 No Longer…

Right then, Gerald suddenly said in an icy tone, “Mr. Lund, everything happened because of this woman. From now on, this woman is no longer affiliated with the Chalker family. It’s up to you to decide what you want to do with her, Mr. Lund.”
No longer affiliated with the Chalker family?
A shudder wracked Angelina as she snapped her head upward in disbelief. Then, she raked her tearful gaze across the Chalkers, including Gerald, Tyson, and her husband, Joseph.
Yet, everyone was looking at her in a cold manner. Some even had disgust in their eyes. It was clear that they were drawing a line between her and them.
Is this how ruthless the rich can be?
Only despair and desolation could be used to describe what Angelina felt at that moment.
Her husband’s attitude especially hurt her. When the two of them were making love to each other the night before, Joseph had even said that he was going to make her dance on cloud nine with his oral techniques.
Who would have known that Joseph would act so differently in less than a day? He now seemed like a stranger to her.
That revelation struck her harder than Emrys‘ words.
“Hahaha! Yes, everything is my fault. I’m the clown! Ha… Hic…”
Angelina sobbed miserably, her laughter dissolving into sobs before transforming into chuckles. In the end, no one could tell whether she was laughing or crying.
Angelina had lost her mind.
When Emrys watched her run out of the house like a madwoman, he sighed..
If only she had known that this would happen.
“Now that my son is dead and Angelina is mad, are you satisfied? Why are you still here?” Tyson hoarsely said as he shot an icy look at Osmond and the others.
Osmond and the rest did not speak, however. Instead, they quietly turned to face Emrys.
A moment later, Emrys finally said. “The score for today is settled, but dear Chalkers, have you forgotten about what happened fifteen years ago?”
A score from fifteen years ago?
The Chalkers were confused.
After taking a deep breath, Emrys uttered, “Gerald Chalker, do you have nothing to say about the fire at Sunshine Children’s Home?
