That time, on the way to the countryside.
Bawling her eyes out, Patricia reproached her mother, “Mom, look at the mess you’ve made! Now we’re
being shipped off to the boondocks!”
Xenia was already feeling low, and her daughter’s reproach only made it worse.
“Patri, I can take it from others, but how could you say that to me? Who am I doing all this for, if not
you?”
Patricia, at this point, had no patience to understand her mother and retorted, “I know you did it for me,
but you didn’t help at all. You just made things worse! Mom, we would’ve been better off admitting our
mistakes in front of Grandpa and Grandma; maybe they would have given us another chance instead
of sending us off to the countryside!”
Xenia felt a pang in her chest due to her daughter’s words, “Now you’re blaming me? Didn’t you also
fail to admit your mistake in time? And how could we have admitted it? Once admitted, it becomes
something that can’t be changed. You wouldn’t have a chance to prove your innocence ever again!”
Patricia understood the logic, of course. She just felt that even the worst outcome would be better than
being banished to the boonies! She didn’t fancy the desolate countryside one bit!
Grandpa said they were to live in the countryside, but he didn’t specify for how long. Would they ever
be allowed back?
There were so many servants accompanying them on this trip, obviously assigned by Grandpa to keep
an eye on them. Once they reached the countryside, they probably wouldn’t even have the freedom to
leave the mansion!
This was not the life she wanted!
The more she thought about it, the more unwilling Patricia felt, and the more she wanted to cry…
Seeing her daughter cry so bitterly, Xenia, despite her annoyance at Patricia’s reproach and
misunderstanding, still felt a twinge of pity for her. After all, she was relying on Patricia for her future!
So, Xenia patted her daughter’s shoulder, trying to console Patricia, “All right, all right! No more crying!
Patri now’s not the time for us to be at each other’s throats! If we let differences come between us,
wouldn’t that just make Ellinor happy, giving her a good laugh?”
Hearing her mother mention Ellinor would laugh at them, Patricia tried hard to stop crying. She wouldn’t
let that detestable Ellinor laugh at her…
She wiped her tears and looked up at her mother, “What can we do now? I’ve lost my brother’s trust
and affection, lost the love of my grandparents, the sympathy of my father, and even the opportunity to
kidnap Theo. There’s no way to turn things around!”
Xenia thought for a moment and checked what the servants around them were doing. Some were on
their phones, and others were dozing off. Then, she whispered to her daughter, “I don’t have an
effective plan to change the situation right now. We need some time to think it over.”
Patricia thought her mother had some new idea, but instead, she heard this useless sentence and
frowned. Did her mother really need to whisper such a thing in her ear?
Then, Xenia continued, “The most important thing now is we absolutely can’t be sent to the mansion in
the countryside. Once we’re there, we’ll surely be watched by your grandfather’s people!”
Patricia was slightly taken aback. She agreed with her mother but muttered, “But we’re already on the
way!”
Xenia gestured subtly towards the nervous and timid child in the back row, “Baber is here too, isn’t he?
We can use him…
