Chapter 233

Unmoved by the eight winds, for some reason, the few of us suddenly became less anxious.

Yes, Ophelia was not someone who lacked restraint and acted impulsively when provoked. Since she dared to agree, she must have had a plan.

“Then cousin, you should hurry back and study now!” Lenora picked up the book that Adalynn and the others had thrown aside and quickly stuffed it into Ophelia’s arms.

Ophelia smiled and put the book away, but after she left the school, she casually tossed the book onto the car without any intention of opening it.

In this bet, Adalynn and Bessie were confident, and she was no exception. Not to mention her medical skills, she had actually been quietly self-studying for a long time. She had already memorized a book titled “Encyclopedia of Herbs,” and it posed no difficulty for her at all. Even though she had never studied it, she had an extraordinary memory that allowed her to remember everything at a glance. How could she possibly lose this bet?

Thinking of the triumphant and expectant expressions on Bessie and Adalynn’s faces, Ophelia let out a cold laugh.

“To the Greene family!” She snapped back to reality and said to the driver.

As for the bracelet, she wanted to settle the account with Samuel. Samuel often had to go out, and she was lucky that whenever she went, she happened to catch Samuel at home.

“How did you come here?”

Upon seeing her, Samuel’s face immediately fell, completely different from the deliberately affectionate expression he had before. He had inadvertently learned that Winford cared about her, and he immediately realized that he needed to be a “good father” and wanted to use her to gain benefits from Winford.

But how could Ophelia let him have his way? After she caught him coming to see Winford and hinting at wanting some benefits, she straightforwardly expressed her disdain for this father to Winford.

So afterwards, Samuel couldn’t even get into Sunset Vista and the apartment, let alone ask for any benefits. After that, he tried to act under the name of Winford outside, but the news reached Winford’s ears, and he was severely warned. After that, Samuel understood that he could no longer rely on Mr. Winford, this remarkable backer.

Of course, she had no good attitude towards Ophelia, who had been meddling in the matter. Ophelia didn’t care either; she kept a cold expression and went straight to the point: “Don’t you know why I’m here? The bracelet that belonged to my mother, did you give it to someone else?”

Speaking of this, Samuel felt a bit guilty, but more than that, he was angry. He instead accused Ophelia, saying, “So what if it was me who gave it? Did you ever think about why I would give it? If it weren’t for you, the ungrateful daughter, deliberately preventing Mr. Winford from helping me, would I have needed to use your mother’s things to curry favor with others?!”

“Why would Mr. Winford help you?” Ophelia retorted directly. “Have you forgotten how you treated me all these years? For so many years, you never regarded me as your daughter, only having Erin and her daughter in your heart. Now, you want to use me to get benefits from Mr. Winford? What a daydream!”

“You…!” Samuel pointed at her, his face turning pale with anger.

However, regarding the matter of Erin and Bessie, he had always felt guilty. He believed that Ophelia still did not know the truth, that the Bessie sisters were actually his illegitimate daughters. Naturally, he did not dare to say much to her and instead scolded, “The bracelet was given to Bessie by me. She said it could help her connect with the Estrada family in Kingchester. You better not cause her any trouble!”
