After listening to her words, Bethany's mind spun as she stumbled to her feet. "You... You're able to come back? When are you planning to return? Are you back to take revenge on Ryan?!"

Zoe gritted her teeth fiercely. "He made my life hell. How can I let him have his way?! From the moment he slapped me three times at the party in front of Bella, Justin, and all the elite of Savrow, we're no longer family. We're enemies!"

"Yeah, Ryan went overboard! He hasn't even married Carrie yet, and he's already abandoned his sister and defied his mother. If they really got married, what would happen to you and your mother?!" Bethany sniffed, backstabbing Carrie and fanning the flames.

"Hmph, don't act like you're concerned for me. All that talk, but you're just hoping for me to return so you can use me to avenge yourself, right?"

Zoe saw through Bethany's despicable thoughts and sneered. "Your backing has collapsed. Without your mother, what fight do you have left? You can only watch as your retarded sister marries into a wealthy family and surpasses you."

Bethany thought about the jewelry Ryan snatched from her and how it would soon belong to Carrie. She was so mad that she trembled violently, her body aching with rage.

She was the eldest daughter who carried the hope of the family and their parents' favorite daughter. How did she reach this point? How could she let that retard catch up to her?!

"No... I can't let Carrie marry Ryan... Never!" Bethany's eyes reddened with rage.

"I feel the same. But you know how Ryan is. It's impossible to make him give up on that fool, so we need to plan this meticulously to perish his thoughts!"

Zoe smiled sinisterly. "I think we will need to work together soon. You should understand by now from your mother's situation that it is futile to place all your hope on someone else. "You need to avenge yourself for it to be satisfying!"

Bethany understood the implications of Zoe's words. Zoe wanted to involve her as an additional security measure, dragging her down.

However, Bethany bore too much hatred.

As long as she could deal a heavy blow to Ryan and Carrie, she was willing to do anything, even if it meant sacrificing herself.

"Haha... Nothing you say now will mean anything. Let's wait until you return to discuss further!"

Justin and Ryan walked out of Tideview Manor, their luxury cars parked outside the gate side by side.

This place was not Ryan's home, but it seemed Justin no longer considered it his home either.

"If Carrie likes that stuff, you can just tell me. I would have collected them for her, as many as she wants."

Justin's eyelashes hung low, and he glanced at the heavy bag in Ryan's hands. "Why bother taking Shannon's last remains to my sister? How morbid."

"If we don't take it, should we have let that dumb chick take advantage? I'd rather smash these to pieces!"

Ryan's brows raised smugly. "I feel so satisfied when I think of Bethany holding a hammer, her face as red as a beet! Hahaha! That feeling of not being able to get something she wanted must be driving her crazy with torment!"

Justin's thin lips curled up as he looked at Ryan.

"Actually, Carrie doesn't want these."

Ryan's eyes glimmered, and he sighed. "That day, she met Shannon one last time, and it left her feeling awful. She even felt a strong sense of guilt toward you. Therefore, I suggested selling the jewelry Shannon left her and donating the proceeds to the charity foundation you're setting up in your mother's name. Although it's not much use, it's a way to do something good, and Carrie might feel better." Upon hearing it, Justin's heart suddenly tightened.

This was what he feared most. He was afraid that Carrie, who had a kind soul, would blame herself because of the pain her mother brought him, affecting their sibling bond.

"My mother's grudge with Shannon had been settled. Besides, Shannon wasn't even pregnant with Carrie when she entered the Salvador family. She has nothing to do with it."
