Chapter 122 Jacob stepped in to smooth things over, "Chloe, your sister didn't grow up with us, so naturally, she doesn't have the smanners and grace. She acted out of anger. As her sister, can't you forgive her just this once? After all, we're family. There shouldn't be any deep-seated grudges among us." Chloe had been silent ever since Connor showed up. Her demeanor was calm, like an onlooker detached from the chaos. When she finally spoke, her voice was icy and distant, "She might think this is a joke, but I'm not kidding, Mr. Jacob. I've severed ties with the Meadows family. Your apologies mean nothing to me. Whatever Lisa did totoday, I'll make sure she gets it back in the future. So, there's no need for her to apologize."

You've enjoyed a better life inher place. Can't you let this go? Chloe chuckled. "Mr. Jacob, your words are indeed amusing. I was just a baby when I was born. What could I have possibly influenced? Don't you bear any responsibility as the guardians of two children who had been switched?" "Even if we look at it from every angle, it was Ann's doing, not mine. If there's vengeance to be exacted, it should be directed at her. Don't blme for everything Lisa lost.

After it happened, your kindness towas just a show. If that's the blessing you speak of, then let Lisa have it all.
"Mr. Jacob, I'm done with the Meadows family. As I said, from 1. I today on we owe each other nothing and have no relations."
