After knowing Who She Is They Kneeled novel Chapter 66

Chapter 66

Juliette bit her lip and shook her head. “It’s not my sister’s fault. The Whitman family just went through too much, and she can’t accept it.”

Her words seemed harmless, but they were actually a death blow to Annelise.

Naomi’s brow furrowed. “Julie, just say it. We’re here for you, don’t be afraid. She can’t bully you!”

“My sister didn’t bully me!”

Juliette stuck her neck out, lowering her eyes meekly. “She just misunderstands us. The Kendrick and Whitman fami- lies are close, and my teacher accepted me as her student. To show his gratitude, my father gave the Etherhart Herb to the Kendrick family, and then…”

Naomi sneered, “And then she shows up here making trouble for no reason!”

“Naomi, calm down.”

Rosalie put on a magnanimous air. “It’s good to clear up misunderstandings. Otherwise, people who don’t know the situation might think the Kendrick family’s Etherhart Herb wasn’t obtained legitimately.”

Annelise watched this boring play unfold and slowly smiled. “The Kendrick family? Do you have anything that was obtained legitimately?”

“I see you’re just all talk!”

Herbert’s eyes blazed with anger. “If you’re so capable, then produce an Etherhart Herb yourself!”

She could grow an Etherhart Herb if she wanted to, but there was no need to show it off here.

Annelise’s lips curled, her eyes deep and unreadable. She paced over to Rosalie. “My grandmother gave birth to an unfilial son who helped outsiders steal our family’s Etherhart Herb. That’s her retribution, and she said to let it go.

But, on behalf of the patients, I’d like to ask the Kendrick family one thing: do you sleep soundly at night?”

“What do you mean by that!”

Herbert rushed forward, about to hit Annelise!

A Winthrop family bodyguard stopped him with a raised hand. “Sir, this is the Winthrop family’s private property. No violence is allowed.”

The Winthrop Patriarch stood right in the center, silent, his eyes heavy and pressing.

Rosalie knew they couldn’t keep arguing over these petty matters. If they annoyed the Winthrop family any further, no one would come out of this well.

“Patriarch Winthrop, I stake the Kendrick family’s century-old reputation on it. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this Etherhart Herb.”

Rosalie was thick-skinned, holding Juliette’s hand. “This is a gift from my student and me to the Winthrop family, to *treat the Young Master Winthrop.”

Hearing this, everyone pretty much understood what was going on.

That Etherhart Herb originally belonged to Isabella. The Kendrick family must have found a way to make Stephan Whitman snatch it and claim it as their own.

But this kind of thing… was ultimately the Whitman family’s private affair. As long as Isabella didn’t speak up…

Even if the Kendrick family took it, what could anyone do?

After all, the actual granddaughter, Juliette, had come along willingly.

There was no need for the fake one to seek justice for Isabella.

This was the reaction of most people.

But some people didn’t agree.

For example, Pennington Yi and Joel were furious. “That old hag Rosalie makes it sound nice, but this is clearly rob- bery!”

Alvin suddenly understood Annelise. “Sis, no wonder you’re being so stubborn today. It was all for Grandma Whit- man.”

Not entirely. Annelise didn’t say anything, just glanced down at the time on her phone.

Joel shook his head. “But this Etherhart Herb is too rare. Even if the Winthrop family knew the whole story, they probably wouldn’t refuse that old hag Rosalie.”

That’s right, who could refuse a miracle remedy that cures all illnesses?

Especially for Young Master Winthrop, who already had one foot in the grave.

After all, the will to live is a basic human instinct.

This was also why Rosalie stood here today, fearing nothing and no one

She set the wooden box down, strolled over to Annelise’s side, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, “Little girl, take a good look. The Kendrick family is vast and powerful. What do you have to fight us with?”
