“Felipe, we believe you. Don’t beat yourself up,” Miriam said.
Andy sighed and also expressed his forgiveness to Felipe.
Relieved, Felipe said, “By the way, three days later, I want to invite you, Harriet, Miriam, and your eight adopted sons to attend the Bass family banquet. At that time, I will reveal the truth and personally send Sadie to prison.”
Miriam and Andy were pleased with Felipe’s change of heart.
Once they dealt with Sadie, they could live harmoniously.
“She deserves it! I won’t let her off the hook, and I will return everything to Harriet,” Felipe added.
In fact, he wanted to take them all down in one fell swoop.
…
When the sky was adorned with twinkling stars, Harriet returned home from work.
She opened the door, changed into slippers, and lay down on the sofa.
Miriam brought over a fruit plate. Harriet took it and sweetly said, “Thank you, Mom.”
Andy also came to the sofa. They exchanged looks, and Miriam finally mentioned the matter.
“Felipe visited us today,” she said.
She winked at Andy, and he picked up the conversation. “My father said that the Bass family would hold a banquet in three days. He hoped that we could attend and deal with Sadie. He would send her to prison and restore your identity as Ms. Bass.”
Naturally, Harriet did not believe that Felipe would suddenly become so kind.
“Mom, Andy, you can’t trust him. There must be a trick in this!” Harriet said.
Miriam tried to persuade her. “I think we can trust Felipe. His attitude was quite sincere.”
“Mom, you must not be deceived by his show. Think about it! Why didn’t he help us before, and now, how could he suddenly want to help us? There must be some conspiracy waiting for us,” Harriet said. However, Miriam didn’t believe Felipe could be so heartless. After all, they were family.
“Harriet, trust me. Felipe won’t deceive us. He is not harboring any other motives this time. He just wants to restore our family bond,” Miriam tried again.
Harriet had to agree. “Okay, Mom, I’ll attend with my brothers.”
At bedtime, Harriet returned to her room and made a call.
Arthur answered the phone and blurted out, “What’s up, Yvonne?”
“Arthur, there is something I want to tell you,” Harriet said.
“Go ahead!” Arthur said.
“Today after work, Miriam told me that Felipe invited us all to the Bass family banquet in three days. I always feel there is a conspiracy, but Miriam and Andy trust him,” Harriet revealed.
“Yvonne, your feelings are correct. Felipe must have ulterior motives. Miriam is too sentimental. Unfortunately, people’s hearts are unpredictable,” Arthur said, agreeing with Harriet’s opinion. Felipe’s sudden invitation couldn’t be anything good.
