Cupid's Arrow hit me hard! -
Chapter 2130
However, a daughter's words carried the most weight within the Fisher family.
Caroline was Madam Fisher's only daughter. She was indeed the young lady of the Fisher family who would take over as matriarch in the future. Therefore, she did have the final say in the family. Her brothers had no rights of inheritance, let alone her sisters-in-law. Although women were prioritized in the Fisher family, they had to be a Fisher and not someone who married into the family. "Alright. I'm still catching my breath. What are you all quarreling for?"
Madam Fisher said in a serious tone, "Since I've already promised to get Caroline a new car, I won't go back on my word. If you have any opinions on that, swallow them.
"No matter what, Caroline is the young lady of our family. It's embarrassing for her to drive an old car around. She represents the Fishers now. Her embarrassment reflects ours too. I'm doing this for our family's reputation.
"You shall accompany Caroline to get a car tomorrow, Celine."
Then, Madam Fisher told Caroline, "Let me know which car you've taken a liking to. I'll send someone over to pay for it."
"Thanks, Mom."
Caroline thanked her elatedly.
She was too lazy to care about what others thought.
After pretending to be harmless for over a year, she had to display her powers occasionally to prevent everyone from thinking she was a weakling.
"Where have you been this evening? I didn't see you at all, and you're only back at this hour," Madam Fisher suddenly asked Caroline.
Caroline replied honestly, "I went to Queen Manor to visit Mr. Donald. Mr. Hayden and Mr. Kevin were present too, and they invited me to stay for dinner. I couldn't refuse their enthusiasm, so I ate with the Queens before coming home."
Upon hearing that, Celine was green with envy.
She wanted to get closer to Hayden, but he was unwilling to talk to her.
She also tried to rescue him last time. Not only did she fail, but Kevin also ordered people to chase her out, which embarrassed her.
Celine recalled the gentle attitude Hayden had shown Caroline during the last banquet. She got even more jealous.
To Celine, Caroline was not as outstanding as she was, and Hayden was only treating Caroline well because of her identity.
If Celine were still the heir of the Fishers, Hayden would surely treat her well too.
She hated Caroline.
She despised her for snatching her identity as the heir and making her become a fake daughter. She had become an awkward existence in the Fisher family and the entire high society of Jensburg. "Was it Mr. Hayden who invited you?" Celine asked sourly.
"I went on my own. I said I had gone there to visit Mr. Donald. Meeting Mr. Hayden was not my intention."
Caroline said coldly, "I'm bound to interact with those tycoons frequently in the future. It'll benefit Fisher Enterprise if I visit and build connections with them when I'm free during weekends.
"I had a pleasant conversation with Mrs. Queen. Time flew as we spoke. Mr. Kevin and Mr. Donald went fishing and grilled the fish they caught. That's why they asked me to stay for dinner.”
Caroline's father scolded his daughter sternly again, "Did you go there to visit Mr. Donald, or were you aiming for Mr. Hayden? Caroline, Mr. Hayden's the best of all elites. He'll never become a live-in son-in- law for the Fisher family. I'd advise you to give up."
It was a fact.
However, the old man only said so to make Caroline feel terrible.
