Chapter 395 Straight to the Point
Tilda went straight to the point.
Talking in circles with Abram wasn’t her way
She had no taste for games.
Abram lifted his cup and drank again.
He didn’t hurry with his reply.
Tilda stayed quiet.
She waited, steady as stone, more patient than him.
“Talda, do you think the people carry values here in this family?
“Values of their own?” Abram finally spoke.
She thought for a breath before she answered the question.
Yes. Everyone does.
“Take Rebecca, for example.
In your eyes, she’s only a step for Jude to climb higher.

“Anyone who fights him for power has worth.
“Their use is to test if Jude can carry the Bells‘ name.”
Those words from most people would sound cruel.
But out of Abram’s mouth they rang true.

“What I did cut me deep.”
“You didn’t look cut when you ordered her fingers taken.

“One more thing, Abram. I will never throw away my own life for anyone again. My dreams and my path belong to me. Even if Jude and I get married, I still go by Tilda, not Jude’s wife.”
She turned and walked away without a glance back.
She knew what Abram wanted. If she wanted to marry Jude, it meant she must live as his
puppet.
She didn’t know how Jude’s grandmother had endured in this house. But she would never take that path.
Lucas rushed forward as she tried to leave. “Ms. Tilda-”
Her eyes went cold. “Do not stop me, Lucas. Unless you wish to see a bloody scene.”
Lucas froze, his voice swallowed by silence.
