It was unmistakably evident that Juliet was consumed by fear, a fear that her son's presence would shatter the
fragile tranquility she had painstakingly pieced together.
"Mother, my son is about to get married. | cto share the news with you," Ariel announced.
Caught off guard, Juliet echoed, "Your son is getting married?"
"Yes, your grandson is tying the knot! Aren't you excited? Don't you wish to attend his wedding?"
Tears welled up in Juliet's eyes, rendering her speechless. The reality of her grandson's impending matrimony
was a stark reminder of her advancing years.
However, she knew Ariel too well. He wouldn't have visited her for such a trivial matter. "You cto escort me
to his wedding?"
"Of course," Ariel began, his voice trailing off, "The wedding is scheduled in two months. And as you know,
weddings are expensive affairs. There's the car, the house, the dowry, and the banquet. It all adds up." Juliet's
suspicions were confirmed, "So, this is a shakedown, isn't it?"
"Mom, don't phrase it like that," Ariel's wife interjected at the opportune moment. "Our son is your grandson.
Isn't it natural for family to support each other? It's not a shakedown."
A wave of disappointment washed over Juliet as she patted her empty pockets, "Do | appear to be swimming in
wealth?"
"Mom, you're back in the Kennedy family fold now. You've spent your entire life around them. Can't you tap into
sold connections for a quick loan?"
Ariel's question ignited a spark of anger within Juliet. Trembling with rage, she pointed at them, "How dare you
utter such shameless words?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"You two, with no skills of your own, can't even afford your son's wedding. Now you're targeting me, an old
woman. After all you've done to me, how do you have the audacity to say that?"
Ariel lost his patience, "What have | done to you? You always claim you're broke. Yet, look at you. You're still alive
and well. How are you managing without money?"
"| believe your years serving the Kennedys have made you forget who your son is. You've forgotten your role as a
mother!"
From across the room, Quinn observed Ariel in disbelief, shocked that such harsh words could cfrom the
mouth of Juliet's son.
Stepping forward to shield Juliet, she gestured sternly, "Out, both of you!"Ariel scowled, "Who are you to
interfere? She is my mother. What we discuss is none of your business."
Ariel's wife, with a sly glance, tugged at his sleeve and hinted with a knowing smile, "Oh, Quinn, we're here to
take Juliet home. She's too old for this work. We're bringing her back to retire in comfort." Quinn was far from
naive. If they truly cared for their mother, they wouldn't have abandoned her to a life of hardship.
Ariel caught on, "That's right, she is my mom. | can take her hif | want. Quinn, if you want her to stay, give
us half a million. Otherwise, she's coming with me."
Quinn's expression faltered as she locked eyes with Ariel's greedy gaze. She knew all too well that Juliet's life
would beca living hell if she left with them. "Why are you bothering her for? You wantto go back with
you? Fine, I'll go!" Juliet cried out.

But Quinn held onto Juliet's arm and shook her head vehemently. With tears threatening to spill, Juliet patted
Quinn's arm, "It's okay, I've survived these past three years, haven't I? What's there to fear? They won't kill me."
Quinn's lips trembled as she realized she couldn't let Juliet suffer again. After a tense silence, she reached for her
phone and typed a message to Ariel.
"I'll pay you the money!"
Ariel's eyes sparkled with anticipation, "Really? Then hurry up and hand it over!"
