Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 916

Debby continued, “Carter’s illness wasn’t this severe in the beginning. If they had been serious about treatment, he might have been cured. But at the time, the search for a doctor was all talk and no action. Susan put on a great show of being concerned, but whenever Ryan found a doctor, she would find fault with everything.”

“One moment, the treatment was too aggressive and would make her son suffer. The next, it was too mild, and the longer it took, the more her son would endure. No matter what method the doctors proposed, she had an issue. It really looked like she was just overly anxious about Carter.”

Anastasia asked, “But you see it differently, Debby?”

Debby gave a faint smile. “At first, that’s what I thought too. If I had a son so fragile and precious to me, I’d be just as cautious. But then, Susan suddenly gave up on finding doctors altogether, claiming no one could cure her son.”

It was an absurd claim. Carter’s condition wasn’t that bad back then, and several doctors believed he could be treated. But because Susan felt the methods would cause her son pain, she simply gave up, preferring to watch Carter suffer and his health deteriorate.

After so many years in a family like the Lancasters, Debby was no fool. How could she not see through Susan’s insincerity?

It wasn't that she was too anxious or loved her son too much; it was that she didn’t care about him at all.

“Before you and Harrison came back from Fairhaven, she was constantly in Ryan’s ear, trying to get Lennon a position in the company. She argued that Carter was entitled to a share of the inheritance, but since he was in poor health and still young, he couldn't gain experience at the company himself.”

“But since Lennon was his older brother, he could join first and hold Carter's place for him. Once Carter’s health improved, Lennon would return everything to him.”

But if she wasn't even looking for a doctor for Carter, and his health was visibly worsening, what future did he have?

What did she mean, Lennon would hold his place? As if anyone couldn't see her real motive!

An outsider with no blood ties to the Lancaster family thought he could get his hands on the family fortune just by changing his last name. It was absolutely delusional.
