Chapter 299 Clive's outstretched hand dropped weakly.
The sandalwood box containing the golden needles slowly slipped from his hand.
It was then caught steadily by someone from the third branch of the Walsh family, who had been standing by the bed.
"What did he just say?" "Something about giving the golden needles to Felicia?" "This old fool is still thinking about an outsider at the brink of death. He never thinks about us and how we'll live after this!" "Are you stupid? The arsonist took Harvey away. He's probably not coming back. The Walsh family will fall into our hands now." "As for the golden needles... they're nothing. Whoever wants them can take them. He's the only one who treats them like a treasure!" "You're right." "What are we waiting for? Let's notify the relatives and friends and prepare for his funeral." The murmurs were filled with excitement, with no hint of sorrow-only barely contained joy.

At the top was a tower, weathered and old from the passage of time, with a centuries-old tree standing beneath it. A sign beside the tree indicated it was over 700 years old.
Carmen had cspecifically for this. She magically pulled out two small wooden plaques tied with red cloth from behind her, nudged Felicia, and said, "This tree is very powerful. Hurry! Write a wish and hang it up!" Felicia couldn't help but smile, helplessly amused.
The tree was already covered in red cloth and small wooden plaques. As the wind blew, the plaques clinked together, adding an air of solemnity to the ancient tree.
Carmen was already writing, her face full of seriousness.
Felicia didn't want to contradict her, but she didn't know what wish to make, so she wrote "Peace and Safety" on the plaque.
Carmen kept writing line after line, her handwriting dense and tight.
Felicia couldn't help but laugh. "Aren't you being a little greedy?" Carmen finally stopped writing, a bit embarrassed, and said sheepishly, "I guess I might have written a little too much..." "It's fine. You can just hang it higher so your wishes are seen first." Felicia winked and tied the "Peace and Safety" plaque onto a branch.
Carmen was delighted as she ran over to find a stone to stand on, trying to hang the plaque as high as possible. But it still wasn't high enough.
Seeing this, Felicia picked up a stick and handed it to her. With the stick's help, Carmen successfully tied her plaque to the highest spot possible on the tree! Though it wasn't the top of the tree, it was the highest position among all the plaques! She clapped her hands out of satisfaction.

Immediately, Myra's indulgent reply followed, "Alright, alright. Since today is about spending twith you, you can decide." "Thank you, Mom! You're the best!" The two walked arm in arm toward the ancient tower, chatting and laughing until they saw Felicia. Their laughter instantly stopped.
Kayla cheered joyfully, her smile radiant.
At that absurd and chaotic birthday P.n
party, when it was revealed that Felicia had orchestrated and incited Mina to bring in the xeporters to cause trouble, Myra was so enraged that she lost control and slapped her hard, ordering her to leave.
Afterward, even though she extended an olive branch by asking Sebastian to bring Felicia back Felicia o m repeatedly refused, even declaring that she was no longer part of the Fuller family. Myra then resolved to make Felicia beg her to return! She was certain Felicia must be living a hard life after leaving the family, with neither money nor friends.
How long could Felicia last after leaving the family?
