Chapter 29
“What?” they shouted as they looked at Eunice wondering whether she was really crazy or not.
“Are you okay? What did you girls do at the mall?” Harriet said as she checked Eunice’s temperature,
making the young lady dumbfounded.
“Mom, I know you don’t believe me but you have to! If you don’t then where don’t you ask Marie?”
Eunice said after being silent for some time.
Everyone looked at Damien so as to get his suggestion.
Although the old lady hated Marie to the core and wished she could kill her, she knew that if they didn’t ask the young woman, her granddaughter would not let the matter slide and also, she wanted to
get Amanda back as she was her ideal granddaughter–in–law.
Damien gazed at Eunice, expressionless as if he was trying to size her up. He knew that her sister
had always hated Amanda but he didn’t see any reason for her to lie to them. Also, since Amanda left,
she just mentioned her when something disgusting was mentioned. There was no way that Eunice wa
Amanda to come back thus he couldn’t understand why she had said that Amanda was in the city when she
clearly wasn’t.
When he heard Marie being mentioned, he frowned as he knew that if Eunice lied and asked them to ask
his fiancee maybe they were both in the plan together. But why? That was something he couldn’t
understand.
“Pfft. Look at you. You are just a coward. Are you afraid that if you find out Amanda is really back
she might never forgive you since you realized your mistake in divorcing her and want her back?” The
old woman said, making everyone speechless.
“Grandma, what are you saying? You know that I am engaged to Marie…”
Damien tried talking but was interrupted by his grandmother.
“Then why haven’t you gotten married to her after divorcing Amanda in the last four years?” the old woman asked, making the Scotts look at Damien as they also had that question in their mind.
Grandma, aren’t you the one who said that you won’t recognize me as your grandson if I marry her?!

Damien asked as he felt he would have a headache anytime soon.
“So you know, remember that you are my grandson and you have to listen to me? Didn’t I tell you not
to divorce Amanda but you still went on?” the old woman said angrily making Damien remain silent as
he didn’t want to be the cause of her getting admitted to the hospital.
“You won’t talk? Don’t think that I am a fool. I have lived longer than you thus I have seen a lot of things that you. You can’t deceive me! We all know that if you wanted to marry Marie you could have
but why haven’t you?”
Damien frowned as he fell into deep thought.
Marie had been insisting for them to hold a wedding celebration but he had always turned her down
mercilessly. Now seeing his family’s reaction and hearing the question, Damien wondered whether Marie
also thought just like them.
If that was the guess then he understood why Eunice said that the woman was back to the city. They
wanted to test him! Thinking of this, Damien massaged his temple and knew that he had to talk to
Marie and make her understand things so that they wouldn’t resort to such petty tricks.
“Eunice, don’t think that I don’t know what both you and Marie are up to! Amanda isn’t high and
that’s the end of talking about her,” Damien said angrily, making Eunice feel wronged.
But bro…”
“No buts, Eunice, I had a rough day at work and I don’t want to be troubled,” he said as he closed his eyes and lay on the couch.
“Eunice, are you sure you saw that wicked woman?” Harriet asked Eunice in a low tone and secretly bu
Damien had the question and wondered why his mother and sister hated Amanda so much.
Even though he didn’t love her, he didn’t hate her either.
“Mom, I really do and she has changed! It’s most likely that she is here to carry her revenge,” Eunice said, making them look at,her and start wondering whether what Eunice said was true.
“Damien, did you fail to look for Amanda?” the old woman asked.
Grandma, I did. After all, didn’t you tell me to go and invite her for your birthday every year?” Damien asked as he was getting tired.

“Then how did she manage to leave the city?” Harriet asked as that had been on her mind all the time
when she heard that Amanda was not in the city.
“I don’t know but maybe the Flores helped her out,” Eunice answered, making everyone agree with he
“Even though whatever happened on that day was painful, Amanda has never been such an unreasor
woman that she would go out of the city and then come back after a few years for revenge,” the old
woman defended Amanda, making Eunice angry.
“What if she is really such a person?” Harriet asked upon seeing her daughter filled with anger.
“Okay. Let’s assume she is such a person but what would make her go to the extent of being filled
with revenge lust?” the Old Mrs Scott asked as she was confused.
“Maybe because Damien has been avenging Marie by oppressing the Flores,” Eunice answered withou
thinking, making her mother lower her head in fear while Damien glared at her.
“What? Damien, is it true that you are behind the Flores businesses declining?” Old Mrs Scott asked
angrily as she felt she would faint anytime soon out of anger.
“Grandma…l..”
Eunice looked at what was happening in front of her in confusion as she had thought her grandma wa aware but she didn’t understand why she was that angry.
“Don’t you dare grandma me! What kind of a grandson are you? Do you think your grandfather is hap watching you behaving like an illiterate person just because of a mistress daughter?” the Old woman shouted angrily as she hit Damien with her walking cane.
“Grandma, they have been hiding Amanda. Since I couldn’t reach Amanda so that I could punish her then I had to oppress that family hoping that she would come back upon hearing what her precious best friend had been going on,” Damien said, making the old woman hit him hard.
“What did Amanda do to deserve this? Huh! If it is true that she is back for revenge then I will support her. Get out of here and from today you aren’t my grandson,” the old woman said angrily, making everyone shocked.
They all knew how much the old woman loved Damien thus they never thought she would one day say this because she was so disappointed in him. Damien looked at his grandma with complicated emotions in his

eyes.
He just turned and left since he did not want to see her getting ill because of his words.
“Look at that ungrateful brat! He can’t even say anything. He better leave his family just to be with
that woman,” the old woman said as she held her chest since she was in pain.
“Grandma.”
“Mom.”
They shouted when they saw the old woman falling down while holding her chest.
