Eleanor Sterling left the Sterling Family with a grim face.
She had used every ans possible, even threatening Faye Sterling’s life, but Rosalie Ray stubbornly insisted there were no heirlooms, claiming she knew nothing.
Is it really that there are no heirlooms, or is she just unwilling to speak?
Eleanor Sterling was in a bad mood, so she headed to the cetery alone.
Back then, she never saw her child, never held her, and this was the morial she set up using the small clothes she bought when she left Veridia City with Estelle Sterling.
Nothing was written on the tombstone except for a birthdate, a detail Eleanor Sterling had custom-made.
She placed the doll she was holding in front of the tombstone, thoughts welling up, her eyes gradually moistening.
The child’s remains were gone, becoming food for a rabid dog.
All of this was orchestrated by Faye Sterling and Rosalie Ray; they conspired to ruin her, and after she beca pregnant, they forcibly detained her.
But the child was her own flesh and blood, born from her body, how could she possibly be without feelings?
Eleanor Sterling’s thoughts churned.
"Baby, mom is useless, I still couldn’t get the whereabouts of grandma’s things out of those villains. I rember your grudges, and I will seek vengeance for you sooner or later!"
After she spoke, Eleanor Sterling sat silently alone.
A gentle breeze blew, a few leaves silently fell, leaving only Eleanor Sterling’s solitary figure in the quiet cetery.
...
At this mont, in the Faulkner Family.
Estelle Sterling and Caleb Faulkner were inside the room.
This was Estelle Sterling’s first ti coming to Caleb Faulkner’s place, he was sowhat excitedly looking around.
"No wonder you’re the Crown Prince of the Faulkner Group, your treatnt is really not sothing I can compare to."
Estelle Sterling clicked his tongue, his voice filled with envy.
Caleb Faulkner grinned, stepping forward to put an arm around his shoulder, "What are you talking about? What’s mine is yours, we’re brothers after all."
Estelle Sterling looked at Caleb Faulkner, at least he had a conscience and hadn’t forgotten about his big brother; his mood couldn’t be better.
"Little Star, it’s so late already, why don’t you stay here tonight?"
Estelle Sterling frowned, "But Sister Eleanor went back to the Sterling Family, and I’m not sure about the situation."
He wasn’t worried about Eleanor Sterling being bullied; he just wondered if it was alright to leave her alone?
"I’ll call Sister Eleanor later, if she agrees, then I’ll stay."
Caleb Faulkner could only nod, then changed the topic, "Alright, let’s go downstairs for so late-night snacks? The Faulkner Family’s kitchen auntie makes delicious snacks."
The two went downstairs together.
Elijah Hayes had brought Caleb Faulkner and Estelle Sterling to the Faulkner Family and then left.
At this ti, Alaric Faulkner was in the study.
Listening to Elijah Hayes’ phone report, he talked about recent matters including today’s handling of the Sterling Family’s matter regarding Faye Sterling’s paternity test.
Downstairs, in the living room.
Mrs. Faulkner sat on the couch, her mood was very bad, extrely bad, she had participated in the high-stakes betting ga in Veridia City.
But she happened to bet on Faye Sterling winning.
And now she lost everything.
Now, Alaric Faulkner unapologetically brought back that woman’s illegitimate child, when she saw Estelle Sterling, she couldn’t help but get mad.
Mrs. Faulkner pointed at Estelle Sterling and said, "Get that little brat out of here."
Even though the servants knew Estelle Sterling was brought back by Alaric Faulkner, they still didn’t dare defy Mrs. Faulkner’s orders.
After all, in the Faulkner Family, she was the Empress Dowager not to be trifled with.
Estelle Sterling, who was happily going downstairs with Caleb Faulkner for snacks, never expected to encounter such an unreasonable old lady.
And this old lady was actually his grandmother.
His own grandmother wanted him kicked out?
This was just absurd.
He frowned and said, "What right do you have to kick out?"
Caleb Faulkner also stood protectively in front of Estelle Sterling, "Grandma, you can’t kick him out, he is..."
He was just about to reveal Estelle Sterling’s identity, but Estelle Sterling tugged at him, and he ca to his senses instantly.
Caleb Faulkner cleverly changed his words, "Little Star is Sister Eleanor’s son."
Mrs. Faulkner sneered coldly, "I know he’s that little wench’s son, that’s exactly why he needs to be kicked out!"
Estelle Sterling put his hands on his hips, looking at Mrs. Faulkner, and laughed, "Little Yi calls Sister Eleanor mommy, which makes us brothers.
Since we’re brothers, I’m also part of the Faulkner Family. Since you call Brother Eleanor a wench, what does that make you? An old wench?"
Mrs. Faulkner was livid at Estelle Sterling’s absurd logic, her entire body trembled with anger, breathing heavily.
She was so angry she couldn’t watch her mouth, saying, "Unruly! This ill-mannered bastard! If I don’t throw out this bastard today, I won’t rest!"
Estelle Sterling looked disdainful, "I have no manners? Compared to your foul mouth, it seems the one lacking manners is you."
Mrs. Faulkner burned with fury, shouting, "What are you standing around for? Get moving!"
Caleb Faulkner shouted, "Let’s see who dares to make a move."
Although Caleb Faulkner was still young, when he beca stern, the cold sharpness of his features resembled those of Alaric Faulkner.
Alaric Faulkner was known as "Hades of Veridia City", a fearso and terrifying presence.
The servants naturally hesitated in the face of Caleb Faulkner, pausing for a mont, unsure whether they should step forward.
Mrs. Faulkner saw that they were defying her orders, veins bulging angrily on her forehead, "Do you all not want to work here anymore? Who’s really in charge here!"
After weighing the pros and cons, the servants opted to align with Mrs. Faulkner.
Thus, they moved forward again.
Estelle Sterling leaned in and whispered to Caleb Faulkner, "Little Yi, if I ss things up with the servants here, will you also get kicked out?"
Caleb Faulkner nodded, "If I get kicked out, so be it, I’m all for it."
Originally, he was only staying in the Faulkner Family for Eleanor Sterling’s sake, otherwise, he would have already revealed the paternity test and moved in with Eleanor.
"Good, then I’ll turn this place upside down."
Estelle Sterling grinned, revealing his mischievous inner demon.
As the servants closed in to grab him, he deftly slipped through their arms like a nimble fish.
"Are you all useless? Can’t even catch soone!"
Mrs. Faulkner watched, anxiously.
Caleb Faulkner watched happily, his face full of glee.
The servants, scolded so harshly, felt embarrassed and surrounded Estelle Sterling on both sides.
Estelle Sterling stood still, not moving erratically.
When they lunged at him together, Estelle Sterling crouched down at the crucial mont.
"Ouch!"
The painful cry rang out as the two servants collided with each other, clutching their heads, dizzy.
The two hadn’t anticipated Estelle Sterling being so agile, struggling to catch him.
Estelle Sterling stood on a chair, gazing down at Mrs. Faulkner, arrogantly smiling, "Want to catch ? Try in your next life! How about you do it yourself, ha-ha..."
Mrs. Faulkner was furious beyond belief.
Seeing the servants fumbling about, she decided to take action herself, walking towards Estelle Sterling.
Just as she was about to grab him, Estelle Sterling hopped off the chair, Mrs. Faulkner had lunged forward, not expecting him to dodge.
She missed entirely, falling down flat on her face.
