Chapter: 1387
Upon hearing this, Julie nodded in agreement and interjected, “However, I believe it's important to clarify that our intention is not to bring about her downfall.”

"Indeed. Consider this a mere warning. She will have to face the consequences of her crimes. The debt she owes to Maria can only be repaid through justice," Anthony declared with unwavering certainty.

Just then, Vivian entered the inner court. "Mrs. Jenkins, did you summon me?" she respectfully inquired, performing a kowtow before Mrs. Jenkins.

Vivian felt a surge of flattery at being noticed by Mrs. Jenkins. The matriarch had only sought her presence during festive occasions. Without any hesitation, Vivian knelt down and lowered her head to the ground, displaying utmost deference.

“Yes, I wish to speak with you, Vivian," Mrs. Jenkins replied.

Seated in her chair, Mrs. Jenkins maintained an impassive demeanor, striving to conceal her intense emotions beneath a mask of composure.

“I have a few inquiries to make, if you don't mind. However, please understand that you have every right to decline answering any questions that pertain to personal matters. I will not compel you to divulge any information," Mrs. Jenkins stated in her icy, lifeless tone, sending shivers down Vivian's spine.

"Mrs. Jenkins, feel free to ask whatever you wish. I will be completely honest with you," Vivian responded, her excitement overcoming the unsettling effect of the old woman's Laughter.

Yet, in an instant, Vivian's mood shifted and she Lost her composure.

With a penetrating gaze, Mrs. Jenkins peered deeply into Vivian's eyes, a fierce intensity emanating from her.

She inquired, “What exactly is the connection between Maria and the Sky Group? How much do you know about the Sky Group?"

Vivian couldn't help but feel unsettled by the probing questions.

She had previously lied to Mrs. Jenkins, claiming ignorance regarding Jack.

However, she hadn't anticipated Mrs. Jenkins growing suspicious and becoming determined to uncover the truth.

Suddenly, Barbara appeared by Mrs. Jenkins’ side, her gaze fixated upon Vivian's face.

As Vivian grew increasingly uncomfortable under the unwavering scrutiny, Barbara spoke to her, “Vivian, I strongly advise you to tell the truth for the sake of the Jenkins family. Grandma has been troubled by this matter. Our family is engaged in business with the Sky Group.”

Anthony, the founder of the Sky Group, happened to be Maria's romantic partner.

Maria and Vivian had been embraced into Julie's loving arms, becoming part of her family.

When Maria found herself in a difficult situation, Jack, the representative of the Sky Group, had graciously stepped forward to offer his assistance.

Without Vivian's intervention, Mrs. Jenkins would have remained oblivious to the truth. These issues had consumed her thoughts for quite some time but now everything fell into place.

“Hmm, I see," murmured Mrs. Jenkins, her pensive demeanor shrouded in mystery, leaving Vivian feeling uneasy.

A mix of excitement and fear coursed through Vivian's veins.

She held high expectations that Mrs. Jenkins would reward her for the valuable information she had provided.

Countless thoughts whirled in her mind. Her daydreaming was interrupted as Mrs. Jenkins began to speak “Well, Vivian, you have performed admirably.”
