Chapter 119
Looking at Pearl crying so heartbreakingly, Mrs. Santiago hugged her. “Isn’t it just the Vanderbilts? Don’t
worry, your father won’t let the Vanderbilts go now. So listen to me and eat something first.”
After finally calming Pearl’s emotions, the butler appeared outside the door of the room. “Madam,
Pearl wanted to tear her apart badly upon hearing the name “Maisie Vanderbilt”. “I don’t want to see that
b*tch, I don’t want to! It’s because of her, it’s all because of her!”
Mrs. Santiago calmed her emotions and asked with a stern expression, “She’s ruined my daughter’s
future and is shameless enough to pay her a visit?”
The butler lowered his head. “This Ms. Vanderbilt is Mr. Goldmann’s girlfriend. She said that she wants to
talk to the young lady.”
‘Mr. Goldmann’s girlfriend? Could it be the one that Mr. Goldmann announced last night?’
Mrs. Santiago’s brows creased.
‘The Santiagos can’t afford to offend any of the Goldmanns, but Pearl has become like this. Her life has

‘She’s here to talk? What else can she talk about?’
She took a glimpse at her emotionally unstable daughter, got up, and said, “I’ll talk to her.”
The butler brought Maisie into the manor. The person who wanted to see her was not Pearl but Mrs.
Santiago.
Mrs. Santiago sat on the couch with a solemn expression. “My daughter has become like this
thanks to you, Vanderbilts. And yet, you still have the guts to come to the Santiagos looking for my
daughter. Do you plan to further embarrass us Santiagos?”
Maisie walked up to Mrs. Santiago and explained with a calm tone, “Mrs. Santiago, I’m not here to
embarrass the Santiagos today. Even if the incident that took place last night is related to the Vanderbilts,
it has nothing to do with me. To be honest, I was actually the intended victim.”
“The intended victim?” Mrs. Santiago snorted. “Isn’t my daughter the current victim while you’re standing
here totally unscathed? Don’t mention anything related to that incident if you’re not standing in my
daughter’s shoes.”
Maisie raised her eyebrows slightly, and her tone became a little cold. “I understand that you feel bad for
your daughter, but if I were to be the victim of last night’s incident, wouldn’t my mother
feel bad for me too? Although my mother has passed away.”
Mrs. Santiago was stunned for a split second and did not speak another word.
“Mrs. Santiago, you should listen to this recording first.” Maisie took out her cell phone and played
an audio clip that she had recorded last night.
Mrs. Santiago could hear her daughter’s voice clearly in the recording, and this had caused Mrs.
Santiago’s expression to change slightly
Maisie had not kept herself idle and turned herself into a sitting duck last night.
‘Since Willow asked Pearl to join forces with her to set me up, how could I not collect a piece of
evidence?’

“Mrs. Santiago, you should’ve heard it. Your daughter was instigated into trying to set me up first. I knew
about their conspiracy before it even began, but I still went to see your daughter.
“I gave your daughter a chance to repent, but she still insisted on proceeding with the scheme and even
hired goons in advance. I would’ve become the person on the news today if it weren‘t for my narrow
escape. Now tell me, is your daughter as innocent as you think she is?”
Mrs. Santiago had a lump in her throat and was left speechless.
But that was her biological daughter.
Her daughter’s life had been ruined now, so how could anyone expect her not to be heartbroken as a
mother?
“The Santiagos are people who uphold righteousness, and I believe that you share the same belief with
your family. Your daughter wouldn’t have been confused to this extent if it weren’t for the instigations.”
Maisie started her counteroffer by praising the Santiagos.
‘If Mrs. Santiago still insists on settling this account with me, it’ll only show that she’s a petty woman that
can’t tell the right from the wrong.
‘Judging from how much she loves her daughter, what would she do after knowing that her daughter has
been exploited and used by others?’
Mrs. Santiago’s expression could not help but dim. “Who’s the person who instigated my daughter?”
