Chapter 132 He Is After Me
- The Kingston Family had been feared for their cruel torture, evident in Mrs. Croydon’s miserable state from her punishment in the dark room. When she was taken to the main building, she was seen to be weakly breathing, barely clinging to her life. However, Old Madam Kingston had already sent for the doctor to examine Mrs. Croydon’s condition. After the doctor left, she entered Mrs. Croydon’s room, only to witness the latter painfully lying in bed with a pale face. Old Madam Kingston then came to the bedside while Mrs. Croydon tried to sit up straight with all her strength. Nonetheless, the understanding old lady only waved her hand in response. “It’s alright. Just lie down.”
- In the meantime, Mrs. Croydon, who was bedridden, bitterly uttered, “I’m sorry to drag you into this mess, Old Madam Kingston! You’ve never had to beg anyone, but because of me, you had to make an exception and begged Young Master Henry.”
- Old Madam Kingston had always struck everyone else in the Kingston Family as an amiable and approachable old lady. Still, her attitude had changed much after all the things that had recently happened. Especially when she stepped into Mrs. Croydon’s room, her expression was so cold it could possibly freeze anyone who looked at it. “You’ve gone through thick and thin with me all these years, but I must say that you got ahead of yourself this time,” she stated.
