Chapter 260
The family blamed everything on Bonnie. Still, Yolanda had to suppress her hatred for her husband’s sake. She asked, “What will it take for you to treat my husband, Bonnie?”
Bonnie said arrogantly, “After you chased me out just now,
what do you think it’ll take?”
Trina interjected, “Although you’re no longer one of us, my parents raised you. Their blood courses through your veins. Are you going to be cruel and make them kneel and beg?”
Yolanda was just as scheming as the rest of the family. Therefore, she knew what Trina was trying to do. The older woman glanced at Gresham and Vera, asking, “What are you waiting for? Kneel before Bonnie. She hates us now, and that’s the only way she’d treat Harold.”
Bonnie squinted, regarding Trina as a dead woman.
Meanwhile, Gresham and Vera gawked at Yolanda. The former asked, “What are you talking about, Mom? Why should we kneel before her? She’s our birth daughter, for crying out loud. Th–that’s just-”
Yolanda grunted, “What else can we do? Your dad will die if you don’t beg for Bonnie’s help. Some people are just cold–blooded and don’t care about their family. Are you one of those people?”
The older woman insinuated that Bonnie was one of those people. However, the older woman laid it thick so Bonnie could not have missed it.
“I beg of you, Bonnie–no, Sis. Don’t make Mom and Dad kneel. Please save Grandpa. I’ll do anything if that’s what it takes,” Trina said as tears rolled down her cheeks..
At that moment, Trina resembled a kind soul who looked out for her family, while Bonnie was a rotten soul who did not give a rat’s ass about them. The latter raised her brows and said, “If that’s the case, I want you to get on your knees and beg me.”
Trina was still crying at that moment. She froze when she heard her former sister’s
words.
Bonnie looked at her condescendingly and roared, “Do it! Aren’t you trying to be the good little girl?”
Gresham and Vera exchanged glances. They were not about to sacrifice their dignity for
anyone, not even their beloved daughter. Ultimately, letting Trina take the fall would be
better.
“We’re sorry you have to do that, Trina. We’ll compensate you after Bonnie treats your grandpa.”
Trina regretted sticking her neck out for her family when she realized they had weaseled their way out of kneeling. Meanwhile, Yolanda grew impatient when Trina froze. The former roared, “What are you waiting for, Trina?! Is your pride more important than your grandpa’s life?”
Trina was in a dilemma and had no way out. She gritted her teeth and fell to her knees with a thud.
