Chapter 1400:
Her mother had toiled alone to raise her all these years, and she was determined to repay her.
Keira tugged Sandra back from the door. “Stop staring. They'll watch us all night, reporting back to the Harpers.
Hmph, as if that'll stop me. | still got the story out. They think their tactics can outsmart me? No way!”
Sandra looked at her mother with admiration. “Mom, you're incredible. | was honestly terrified the Harpers might
hurt us or even kill us. But you turned the situation around. You're my hero. Don’t worry. Once | beca
member of the”
Harper family, I'll make sure you get money every month. Gamble as much as you want; I'll support you
financially.”
Keira’s face softened with pride. “I know you're a good daughter.”
Sandra smiled warmly, picking up the ointment. “Mom, letput this on for you. It'll ease the pain.”
Back at the Harper estate, Shepard stood in the bedroom, offering Giselle the expected apology.
“Honey, please don’t be angry. It's been years. How could | have known she’d reappear out of nowhere, causing
trouble with that grown daughter of hers? | admit | messed up back then.”
Giselle remained unmoved, her face a mask of indifference, refusing to offer forgiveness.
“What's done in the past is done,” she said coldly. “But what about your constant dinner meetings and social
gatherings now? Don’t think I'm clueless about what you did.”
Giselle had endured enough over the years, maintaining a good image with Shepard for the sake of their

no longer keep up the pretense.
Shepard replied, “You know those were for business. The Harper Group is massive; how could | avoid them?”

“You say you recognize your mistakes, but is this how you show remorse? Shepard, I've put up with you for over
twenty years. I'm done. | know exactly what you're like; you'll never change. Get ready for a divorce.”
In a fury, Giselle shoved Shepard out of the bedroom and slammed the door, collapsing onto the bed, seething.
Her eyes stayed dry; years of silent tears had left her with none to spare. Brenna, watching from her slightly
open door, caught the tense exchange in her parents’ room.
With a heavy sigh, Shepard trudged upstairs to the bedroom Ernst used to stay in before.
Only when he was out of sight did Brenna quietly shut her door.
She grabbed her phone and texted Ernst.
