Chapter 215: No Threat to Me
Claire’s arm trembled and she suddenly looked up, startled, at him, “No? How do you know?”
Sean’s hand gently pressed her slightly trembling arm and he said slowly.
“First of all, Paula’s reaction was wrong, if she really did it, there should have been a look of guilt on her face when you asked her, but she didn’t. You might say that she disguised herself well, but then when Master Summers questioned her, there was a clear flash of disappointment in her eyes, and her disappointment should have been towards Master Summers‘ attitude.”
These subtle changes in expression were not noticed by Claire, who only noticed that there really wasn’t a hint of guilt showing on Paula’s face when she asked her that question.
But she was still puzzled, “Then… why did she admit it?”
It was a murder charge, why would she admit it if she didn’t do it?
Sean smiled and patiently explained.
“Frederick had said before, Master Summers had always been very fond of your mother, he had two daughters who grew up together and one of them was preferred. The other ignored will always crave to be recognized and loved by their parents.”
Claire nodded her head, and she could understand this. She and Clarissa were like this, they grew up together, she was the one who was always ignored, she always studied hard, and desperately wanted to make her father notice her. The longing for father’s love in the bottom of her heart was stronger than that of any child.

Sean continued, “The moment Master Summers questioned her, all the expectations inside of her were shattered, your mother had disappeared for so many years, but Master Summers still didn’t fully trust her, and even suspected that she killed her sister, she was too disappointed and…”
Claire snaps, “So she decided to take the blame?”
“Pretty much.” Sean raised his hand, gently tapping her forehead, “It’s also possible that what happened to your mother has always been a pain in Master Summers’s heart, and that the whole thing, in fact, was caused by him forcibly, trying to break up your mother and Joseph, but as the head of the family, he has pride, and he won’t blame himself for his own faults. Paula probably wanted to relieve him of it, so she admitted it.”
After listening to Sean’s analysis, Claire thought it made sense.
It seemed… today’s visit wasn’t a wasted one, at least it ruled out Paula as the biggest suspect.
So the question was, if it was not Joseph or Paula, who else could it be?
The death of her mother was getting more and more confusing, Claire couldn’t figure it out, and she would have to wait until Paula sent her Winona’s
invectigate them one by one.

That was why when he went in, he didn’t say a word and just sat there quietly.
Just after they came back to the Vanderbilt family, Paula’s email came with a very detailed write–up, anyone who was even remotely related to Winona was
listed.
Paula even went so far as to detail who those people were and how close they
were to Winona.
Seeing this, Claire smiled as she took out her cell phone, walked over to the window, and called Paula.
As soon as the phone was answered, Claire got right to the point and asked, “Aunt Paula, why did you admit it if it wasn’t you?”
Paula was obviously stunned for s moment as Claire actually changed her
address of her.
The obvious change had drawn Claire closer to her.
It was a while later when Paula smiled and said, “You knew?”
“I knew. I was in a fit of anger and said something impulsive, I hope you don’t take it to heart.”
“Claire, it’s normal for you to suspect me, I can understand.” Saying this, Paula let out a despondent chuckle, “In fact, you could have asked me privately, I would have answered you. You didn’t need to go through so much trouble.”

trouble.”
“That’s different.”
Claire leaned her shoulder against the edge of the window, chatting calmly with someone from the Summers family for the first time, “If I took the initiative to approach you, with Master Summers‘ shrewd calculations, he would definitely swindle me into going to the Summers family, and might even offer to let me go back to the Summers family as a condition. I have to take the initiative so that you couldn’t ask me for anything, and certainly
couldn’t threaten me.”
Sure enough, Claire was even smarter than her mother!
Paula nodded, “You are right! My father was indeed that kind of man.”
Claire was speechless.
So, they agreed that Master Summers was a shred man?
Suddenly, the two laughed together.
Paula had never been happier and more relaxed, “Claire, I’m afraid you are the only person with whom I can complain about my father in this world.”
“I guess so. Although I haven’t had much contact with Master Summers, I have heard a lot about him and his character is known to everyone.”
If it weren’t for Master Summers‘ terrible character, how would Winona die and Joseph turn against the Summers family?
Paula laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes, and it was a long time later when she asked, “Claire, since you’ve already investigated that your mother’s death has nothing to do with the Summers family, why don’t you…

Paula laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes, and it was a long time later when she asked, “Claire, since you’ve already investigated that your
mother’s death has nothing to do with the Summers family, why don’t you…
come back?”
“No.”
Claire refused decisively, “I’m fine on my own, Sean and the Vanderbilt family are treating me well, the Summers family is better left to Kira.”
She didn’t covet the Summers family’s property, and she didn’t care about the Summers family’s power, so what was the point of going back to the Summers family?
Let Master Summers face her with guilt all his life and Kira live in her shadow, Paula continued to be denied the fatherly love she craved?
It was not necessary.
The situation now was better for everyone.
“Well, since you’re so determined, I won’t try to persuade you.”
Paula said seriously, “But Claire, you have to remember, you will always be a Summers, you are my sister’s daughter, no matter what had happened in the past and what will happen in the future, you will always be a Summers in the heart of the Summers family. In the future, if there is any need for help from us, just tell us, we will definitely do our best to help you.” This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
This time, Claire didn’t say no and didn’t say she had Sean again.
She smiled and nodded, “Okay, got it.”
