The Healing Avenger novel Chapter 294

Chapter 294 Everything Is Over

The recording sent by Finnegan shattered Bernice’s beautiful illusions about her family members,

leaving her devoid of any sleepiness.

After freshening up, she left the room.

Inside the dining room, Millicent and Sapphire were having breakfast.

Seeing her come out, Sapphire feigned friendliness and said, “Bernie, you’re up. Come and have some

breakfast first. Let’s go shopping once Queenie wakes up.”

Bernice’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.

If it weren’t for the recording sent by Finnegan, she would be very pleased with Sapphire’s attitude.

After listening to that recording, Bernice felt a chill run down her spine, realizing that Millicent and the

others had a hidden agenda.

Seeing that Bernice made no move, Sapphire called out to her again, “Bernie, what’s wrong? Come

here!”

With a quiet sigh, Bernice adjusted her mindset and walked over.

Instead of sitting down, she took out her phone and, under the puzzled gazes of Millicent and Sapphire,

she played the recording. The conversation between Queenie and Sapphire was heard.

“Take advantage of Bernice’s absence to sleep with Finnegan. Once that’s done, Finnegan and

everything else will be yours, and your grandpa will change the decision he just made.”

“Mom, I don’t like Finnegan.”

“What are you saying? You need to consider your father and your brother, not just yourself.”

As the recording played, the expressions of Millicent and Sapphire gradually stiffened.

Once the recording had finished playing, they still hadn’t fully reacted, their faces just a bit paler than

before.

Bernice, struggling with discomfort, said, “Grandma, Aunt Sapphire, I initially thought you had changed,

and from now on, we would be a loving family, free from quarrels and scheming. But it seems I’ve

idealized human nature too much!”

Clutching her phone tightly, Bernice turned around in disappointment. “But rest assured, I won’t give

this recording to Grandpa, nor will I let anyone else know. You ought to behave yourselves from now

on!”

With that, Bernice departed in sorrow, no longer holding any hope for those family members of hers.

“Mom, Finnegan gave the recording to Bernice. What should we do?” Sapphire asked.

Millicent opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, she could only let out a long

sigh. “As expected, Finnegan did give the recording to Bernice. It’s over, everything is over now!”

After her plan failed the night before, she still thought of buttering Bernice first and then devising a new

strategy. But now, Bernice holds the recording in her hand, which is equivalent to her having control

over all of us. What else can we do?

Sapphire anxiously said, “Mom, are we really giving up Just because of this recording?”

“What else can be done?” Millicent said irritably, “Can’t you figure out why Bernice didn’t directly give

the recording to your father?”

That recording was being used as leverage to blackmail them.

If they behaved themselves in the future, Bernice wouldn’t hand over the recording to Bruce, as if the

recording never existed.

However, if they refused to behave, Bernice would hand the recording over to Bruce.

Bruce was a prideful man.

If he were to learn about it, it wouldn’t just be Bishop’s family who’s in trouble. Even Millicent, his wife of

nearly fifty years, might be driven out of their home.

Sapphire was unwilling to accept it. “Mom, is there really no other way? Are we going to be at the

mercy of Bernice’s family from now on?”

“Unless your father has passed away, you should behave yourself now.” Millicent shook his head with a

bitter smile. “So our plan last night was like shooting ourselves in the foot!” she uttered. Who knew that

Finnegan was just pretending to be drunk? Who knew that the b*stard was actually setting a trap to

catch us off guard? Who knew he would turn around and hand it over to Bernice?

Of course, Millicent wasn’t too surprised by this. She just didn’t expect it to happen so quickly that she

hadn’t had time to prepare a response.
