Chapter 840
Rosemary’s eyes lit up with understanding. She nodded vigorously. “Right! It was Flavia Cartwright! Freya took Flavia Cartwright! Carey died a long time ago. We don’t know anyone named Carey p>
She took a deep breath, her voice wavering slightly. “But… what if Ca― what if Flavia Cartwright gets her memory back p>
They couldn’t hide the truth forever.
“What’s there to be afraid of? This is Valerium. Even if Freya managed to get Carey out of the house, they can’t escape the country!” Dowager Vance’s earlier panic had vanished. She slowly sat down, picked up her phone, and dialed the butler’s extension. “Where is Flavia Cartwright now p>
Valerium was their turf.
Who was Caitlin?
Just some upstart girl who had barely turned twenty.
The butler’s respectful voice came through the phone. “My lady, the Madam is temporarily staying at a hotel owned by the Palmer family with Miss Gonzales and her friend p>
After hearing the reply, Dowager Vance hung up.
Rosemary immediately pressed on, “Mom! We need to send people to that hotel and drag that worthless woman back here! Since Freya has already taken her to a hotel, it means the Richardses and the Gonzaleses are probably already on their way to Valerium p>
Both the Richards and Gonzales families were major powers.
They were not people the Vances could afford to offend.
Dowager Vance let out a small, cold laugh. “Afraid? The one who should be afraid now is Freya! So what if the Richards and Gonzales families are all-powerful in Eldermere? Don’t forget, this is Valerium. And in Valerium, you abide by Valerium’s laws! Their influence in Eldermere means nothing here p>
A sinister smile played on her lips as she turned to Rosemary. “Rosemary, didn’t you lose a jewelry box today? One worth millions p>
“Huh?” Rosemary was momentarily confused, not grasping her mother’s meaning.
Dowager Vance continued, her voice dripping with venom, “That little
bitch Freya not only broke into our home and stole your jewelry box, but she has now kidnapped a member of the Vance family! What is that? is that It’s a crime. How dare she openly defy the laws of Valeriumin this day and age p>
There were no security cameras inside Vance Castle.
Forget one jewelry box.
Even if they claimed Caitlin stole ten, she would have to take the fall.
Rosemary instantly understood. A grin spread across her face. “Yes, Mom, you’re right! That jewelry box was worth a fortune, and now she’s kidnapped my sister in law. With those two charges combined, she will have to pay p>
“Making that little brat pay isn’t enough,” Dowager Vance added. “Since the Richardses and the Gonzaleses are on their way, I want them to personally bring that bitch Flavia Cartwright back to me get on their knees, and beg for our forgiveness! If they refuse, they can start preparing Freya’s coffin p>
This was Valerium.
They had the backing of Valerium’s most powerful faction.
For Dowager Vance, getting rid of Caitlin on charges of theft and kidnapping
would be as easy as crushing an ant.
Rosemary’s initial anxiety completely evaporated.
Her mother was right.
No matter how powerful the Richards and Gonzales families were, once they set
foot on Valerium soil, they had to play by Valerium’s rules.
