Chapter 4
It was unsettling to realize that all the toys I’d collected were kept in my bedroom. That camera would completely invade my privacy.
I sneered at her and said, “You learned a lot abroad. You even learned how to do voyeur shoots then?”
Elena’s looks changed drastically. She immediately grabbed the teddy bear and tried to explain. “Victoria, you’ve misunderstood. This teddy bear is an electronic toy with glowing eyes.”
I looked at her and shook my head. “Are you having fun? Do you think you’re such a good actress, or do you think I’m an idiot? Did you forget so quickly about the last time you set me up and the whole thing collapsed in your face?”
Elena looked around to make sure there was no one around, then suddenly sneered. “Victoria, I’m only being nice to you as you’re my sister–in–law, but do you really think you’re the mistress of this family? Your last name is Harrell, not Caldwell!”
I just quietly watched Elena reveal her true face.
Elena saw that I looked indifferent, and she was a little angry. She came over and whispered in my ear, “I fell in love with my brother when I was a child, and my brother loved me too. You know, we are not related by blood, but it’s a pity that a witch like you got there first. I was so angry that I ran away overseas and didn’t come home. Look at what’s going on now. Both my brother and mother changed as soon as they saw me come
back.
“So Victoria, you can’t beat me. I am the treasure of the Caldwell family, and I am the master of this family and even the Caldwell Group. All of

this belongs to me!”
After she finished speaking proudly, she raised her hand and slapped herself, making her face red. Then she pinched her arm hard, leaving bruises all over.
“Victoria, do you think I don’t have any more tricks? I was careless last time with the surveillance cameras, but today. I turned off all the surveillance cameras in advance. Let’s see how you explain this later!”
She kept hitting her face and scratching her neck with her nails, which made her look bloody and scary.
“Victoria, it won’t be long before you pack up your things and get out of this house. Get out the way you came. My brother’s love, the family’s money, clothes, jewelry, and servants. All of them, mine!”
I crossed my arms and watched calmly as she tortured herself.
After such a long time at it, she only ended up with some minor injuries. She had been abroad so long that it seemed that her skin had gotten thick and tough, so the injuries weren’t serious.
Seeing that she was still thinking of ways to hurt herself. I couldn’t help but sneer and point at the knife on the table. “It seems that you have been abroad for so long that you haven’t seen the TV shows and novels here. Those bits of injuries are not enough.”
Elena was stunned.
I smirked faintly. “You can’t convince them unless you end up in the hospital.”
Elena immediately grabbed a knife and gestured at her arm for a long time, but couldn’t bring herself to do it.
I yawned. “I think you are still too green and not ruthless enough. If it

were me, I would have cut off my hand in one go.”
Elena might have really lost her mind. After hearing my ridicule, she actually grabbed the knife and pierced the back of her hand.

With a scream, her body tilted and fell heavily onto the glass coffee table.
This was truly tragic. Elena was covered in glass fragments and rushed to me covered in blood, rubbing all her blood onto me.
Then, she screamed loudly so people outside could hear. “Mom, help! Alex, save me!”
Alex and Margaret, who had just seen the guests off, rushed in together.
I turned around and gestured, prompting Betty, who had been hiding in another room, to come out and hand me the mobile phone that had recorded the earlier videos of the scene.
I held the phone and said nothing.
I decided to endure Elena’s performance a little more, just to see if Alex and Margaret were really blind and if they would rather believe the false accusation of their adopted daughter who had been away from home for many years than believe me, their closest relative who had been taking care of the family for many years.
Margaret hugged Elena, who was covered in blood, and her eyes were red. “Victoria, what did you do? How could you be so cruel!”
I sneered inwardly and thought, “Elena hasn’t said anything yet, but Margaret automatically assumed that I did it.”
I looked at Alex.
Alex was trembling all over. He grabbed the bloody knife and raised it towards me.
