Chapter 2525
"Nicole, why do you keep on causing me trouble?" Chloe bawled loudly before Mr. Riddle Sr. could answer Nicole.
"When did I cause you trouble?" Nicole frowned.
Thinking back on Jared's words, she could understand Chloe's attitude towards her, but how as to how she had
repeatedly caused Chloe trouble, she did not know.
"Oh, so you're playing pretend now?" Chloe gritted her teeth." Because of you, my leg turned out like this. And now,
you're severing my only source of income? Without money for treatment, I'll be a cripple forever."
As Chloe lashed out, her emotions grew more intense, and she became even louder. She was leaning forward in
her wheelchair, almost to the point of falling over.
"Come on, take it easy. We're here to let Grandpa do us justice," Miley softly comforted her.
"How could I not get anxious?!" Chloe choked. "I've waited all these years, and yet my leg is still not treated. I’m

because of her. Don't you get it? I'll never be able to stand up in the future!"
"There, there. Don't cry. Your grandpa won't overlook this. He will definitely make things right," Miley said while
looking at Mr. Riddle Sr.
"Dad, you'll do justice to Chloe, right?"
"Please watch your words, Miley," Nicole said coldly. "What wrong has she suffered that she needs Grandpa to make
things right for her?”
"W-Why? Everyone has heard the reason just now. Chloe has become a paraplegic because of you." Miley's
expression stiffened for a split second before she regained her composure.
"Did I break her legs?" Nicole snorted, her tone icy and blunt.
"Why you..." Miley choked, her face blanching. "How can you talk like that?"
"Isn't that the fact?" Nicole retorted, her expression cool and calm as if she had never been involved in this.
Although Jared did explain that she was involved in Chloe's broken leg, Nicole was certain that she did not
personally break it. Therefore, this had very little to do with her, if at all.
At a loss on how to respond to Nicole, Miley shot Chloe a glance and started weeping. "Oh, why were we born with
such rotten luck?"
"Silence!" Mr. Riddle Sr. bellowed upon hearing Miley wailing.
Damien then glared at Miley and said, "What are you crying about? No one is dead yet."
Hearing that, Miley choked and kept quiet while her face became white as a sheet.
"Dad, would you just look at Chloe's legs? It does require medical attention and physical therapy. Now that the
company has shut down, we have no way out," Damien sighed.
"Damien, Miley. So what's your purpose in bringing Chloe back to Grandpa?" Nicole asked when she noticed the
family putting on a show.
"Why we..." Damien hesitated, feeling that they had expressed their intentions clearly.

fairest of them all," Nicole said as she gave her uncle a meaningful stare.
Damien felt an inexplicable pang of guilt, as Mr. Riddle Sr. was already upset with him because of the previous
incident. If anything, Nicole's words now felt like a threat to Damien.
"You can't tell?" Nicole asked coldly.
Frustrated, Damien bit his lips and glared at Nicole.
He then continued, "Dad, Chloe is your granddaughter after all. You wont just stand by and watch her rot in a
wheelchair forever, right?"
Mr. Riddle Sr. sighed. "In that case, the money for Chloe's treatment will be on me."
"Dad, but..." Damien stuttered and frowned, as this was not the outcome he wanted.
"What's wrong?" Mr. Riddle Sr. stared Damien down.
It was then that Nicole frowned, and as she observed Damien's indecisiveness, she coldly said, "Damien, aren't you
worried about Chloe's leg? Grandpa has already promised to help. Is there anything else you're not satisfied with?"
