Liana was puzzled and walked stiffly over to Karan. "What's so funny?" she asked, genuinely curious.
Karan didn't hide her grin, instead, she patted Liana's head and laughed, "I'm laughing because my dear Liana has finally broken free from that bad guy."
Her touch was gentle, like she was trying to console Liana, "I saw how much you suffered because of Tyler all these years. Even though his death pains me, it's worth it if it means you're free now."
Karan was really good to Liana, spoiling her with both money and affection. When Liana first joined the Howell family, Karan even transferred all the money Hackett Howell had given her to Liana's account, even throwing in a few properties. Who would've thought that the once poor Liana would become a billionaire at such a young age?
In Liana's eyes, Karan was also really good to Tyler, always looking out for him, protecting him. Even when Tyler was cold and cruel towards her, she never held a grudge, instead, she continued to care for him.
But behind Liana's back, Tyler often accused Karan of being a hypocrite. Before Karan could even explain herself, Hackett would give Tyler a good beating, and Tyler would stop talking, storming out of the Howell house.
Whenever there was a conflict between the three of them, Liana would usually be upstairs. If she accidentally ran into them, Karan would signal her with her eyes to leave.
Liana always felt like she was beneath them, that it wasn't her place to get involved in their family matters. So, she would obediently leave.
After a while, she developed a habit of avoiding their conflicts and not eavesdropping, so she never knew what their conflicts were about.
But in Liana's mind, Karan was genuinely a gentle and kind person. She never said a bad word about Tyler in front of Liana, always praising him for being smart. Even the servants around her, she never spoke ill of them.
Liana thought, maybe Karan was genuinely happy for her, just like Aidyn Reyes. After all, both Karan and Aidyn were her family, they had blood ties. They obviously loved her more than Tyler, who had hurt them.
