Mrs. Shaffer's heart went cold when she heard this.
"Dad, do you want the Shaffer family to have no descendants as much Cody Shaffer does?"
"No. But with what the Shaffer family has done over the years, do you think it will be possible for its
descendants to survive?"
Chad Shaffer's eyes opened with heartache.
In fact, no one would be more heartbroken than he was.
He had been wise and brilliant all his life, but both of his sons' merits were lost out by Cody Shaffer,
and now he was burdened with stigma.
He knew better than anyone that if this incident was exposed, no one, not to mention Mr. Hill, could
save the Shaffer family.
And over the years, had anyone in the Shaffer family been clean?
If there was a thorough investigation, the Shaffer family would be scattered, and no one would escape,
including his daughter-in-law.
He knew that Mrs. Shaffer had suffered in the Shaffer family over the years, but she had also helped
Cody Shaffer do some bad things for the sake of her child's well-being, and Cody Shaffer had just
threatened her with these things.
Neither of them could get away with it.
Perhaps it was because of this that Mrs. Shaffer planned to see Cara one last time while she was still
unconscious.
Chad Shaffer had mixed feelings now.
Mrs. Shaffer froze for a moment and then understood what Chad Shaffer meant. She said with a bitter
smile, "So now Cara is known by them?"
"What do you think could be hidden from Mr. Hill and Mr. Morty?"
Chad Shaffer's words were tantamount to shattering all hope in Mrs. Shaffer's heart.
Did they know?
So she couldn't even keep her daughter, could she?
No!
No way!
All these years, she was the one who had done all the bad things, and her daughter was innocent!
She had sent her away because she wanted her to have a life of her own, but why couldn't she do that
in the end?
Twenty years of separation had brought no peace to her daughter, so what had she been living for
these twenty years?
Mrs. Shaffer suddenly had an emotional breakdown.
Looking at her daughter-in-law like this, Chad Shaffer also felt bad in his heart. He turned his head
away and looked out into the thick darkness of the night. He knew that the dawn would not last long
and that the Shaffer family would not survive much longer.
Rather than let others expose the Shaffer family, ...
Chad Shaffer's eyes flickered, and his heart ached so much that he choked, but he still opened his
mouth.
"You get something on Cody for all those things he did, don't you?"
"Dad?"
Mrs. Shaffer was completely shocked.
Chad Shaffer never lived at home but was always by Mr. Hill's side. They all thought he knew nothing
about what was going on at home. But now that he knew, did that mean Mr. Hill knew too?
Mrs. Shaffer's mind was racing.
Chad Shaffer, however, said gently, "You don't need to be nervous. You two have long since run out of
affection. Perhaps it was Cody's repeated attempts to hurt your children that made you give up on him,
right? The only reason you two haven't divorced yet is because of the interests involved. But if you say
that you are sincere in doing what is best for the Shaffer family, I don't believe it at all. You both get
something on each other to ensure that you can survive, don't you?"
Mrs. Shaffer was shocked but also a little impressed.
Older and wiser.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Chad Shaffer knew he had guessed correctly.
The family had become what it was, and the home that should have been a warm haven had now
become a gathering place for intrigue and conspiracy.
Chad Shaffer had to admit his failure, yet he knew that now was not the time for him to lament.
"There is no need for you to be surprised and nervous. The defeat of the Shaffer family is a foregone
conclusion. You'd better be mentally prepared."
Mrs. Shaffer froze for a moment but said nothing.
It would be nice to die with the Shaffer family.
She had lived long enough.
If it wasn't for Cara, she wouldn't have wanted to live a few years ago.
Chad Shaffer sighed and said, "You've been married to the Shaffer family for almost thirty years. the
Shaffer family is sorry for you, but in the end, I still have to ask for your help."
"Dad, don't say that. If you want to do something, just order me. Now, while I am still somewhat
capable, I will help you to get it done."
Mrs. Shaffer's words made Chad Shaffer feel even sadder.
"It's nothing else, just that when you see Mr. Morty later, just tell him all the bad things that the Shaffer
family has done over the years, and the things that Cody has done that have harmed the country and
the people."
"Dad!"
Mrs. Shaffer was instantly shocked.
Once these things were exposed, Cody Shaffer would definitely die, and her two children would also be
involved, and they would probably go to jail.
Mrs. Shaffer couldn't remain calm at all ...
"Dad, to be honest, I want Cody Shaffer to die as badly as possible, but Joy is also your granddaughter.
She and her husband have done a lot for Cody Shaffer. I can't betray my daughter!"
Mrs. Shaffer tugged on Chad Shaffer's sleeve and prayed, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
Chad Shaffer looked at her and said word by word, "Joy Shaffer is your daughter. Although she was not
valued, she was at least brought up as the lady of the Shaffer family, where she had no worries about
food and clothing, and because of her status in the Shaffer family, she married a husband with a very
high ranking family. If she had kept to her duties and raised her child at home, she would have lived a
very happy life. But she had to work for her father and got herself into trouble. Who is to blame for this?
If you don't want to betray her, do you want your youngest daughter, Cara, to be implicated and
executed along with them as soon as she learns her identity?"
These words struck Mrs. Shaffer's head like a thunderbolt.
She looked at Chad Shaffer and suddenly understood something.
"Dad, are you planning to sacrifice the entire the Shaffer family to keep Cara?"
Chad Shaffer's nose twitched, and tears trickled down his face.
He had been tough all his life, but in the end, he had failed his country and his conscience because of
his children and grandchildren's debts.
But he was also a grandfather!
He didn’t feel guilty for Joy, but he felt sorry for Cara!
Chad Shaffer gritted his teeth and said as if he had used all his strength, "The Shaffer family is almost
finished. You think you are being secretive, but justice has long arms. What do you think Xander has
been lurking and holding back for over twenty years? He just wants to give those people to Mr. Morty.
Besides, do you think Mr. Hill wouldn't know what I know? All my life I have followed Mr. Hill in his
battles, and I have been wounded all over, but I could not save the whole the Shaffer family. They're
not children anymore. If they do something wrong, they have to pay for it. That's the rules of the adult
game. But Cara is simple, clean, and protected by Samuel and Nicole. I'll give up my face while you
take the whole the Shaffer family so we can keep her, you know? She's the only clean person in the
Shaffer family, and the only one that has any hope of surviving."
Mrs. Shaffer's body went limp in the car seat.
At this moment, she didn't know whether she should be glad she had sent Cara away over twenty
years ago, or whether she should regret the decision she had made back then.
What should she do?
