Chapter 1839

When Manfred heard Vivian's words, a shadow passed through his eyes. "They're too preoccupied with their own troubles to bother me for now." "Did I really scare them?" Vivian exclaimed in surprise. Not wanting her to feel disappointed, Manfred nodded. "Yes, they're feeling guilty and uneasy. Your actions just happened to frighten them. They've been taking medicine and resting these past few days." It wasn't as simple as them being scared. Manfred had done something as well. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at a few books stacked near the bed. It seemed reading really was useful. If Vivian wanted those two vile people to fall ill from fear, then they'd best stay sick. "That's great! After the way they've treated you—spending your mother's money while still mistreating you—they deserve punishment! I told you they'd face retribution." Vivian felt like a weight had been lifted off her chest. These past few days, just thinking about Randall and Zea made her seethe with anger.
