Chapter 123 The Kennedy Family Was Hotly Discussed
Before leaving, Victoria called Thalia to keep her from worrying after seeing the news.
"Grandma, I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier." She was afraid Thalia would be upset.
Thalia was supportive. "No need to apologize. Do what you need to do. I'll always back you."
Victoria had doubted her place in the Kennedy family, but Thalia's unconditional love always reassured her.
"Thank you, Grandma," Victoria said, touched.
"Go on, I'm fine. Don't worry," Thalia replied.
After hanging up, Mia, who was with Thalia, saw the news and worriedly asked, "Will Victoria find out what they did?"
Thalia sighed, "What’s meant to happen will happen. The Kennedy family owes her and Esme, and they might never repay it."
The news was trending by noon.
Everyone was puzzled by the Kennedy family's sudden announcement to sever ties with Victoria.
During lunch, an insider claimed: [Victoria was harassed by Anthony from the Barnes family in Jakarda City last night. She fought back, putting him in the ICU. The Kennedy family, afraid of the Barnes family, cut ties with her!]
This revelation sparked heated discussions on Instagram.
Some understood, others didn't.
Netizens debated: [Victoria was defending herself. Cutting ties is 2 much. Kennedy fam is weak]
[How can they disown their own daughter? It's absurd!]
[They’re heartless. Victoria was the victim, and they abandoned her!]
[Now I feel grateful 4 my fam.]
[Blood doesn’t always = family.]
[Even though I’m from the countryside, my dad always stood by me.]
[Victoria was unloved from the start. This move is typical.]
The Kennedy family's decision caused a lot of controversies.
But for them, preserving their status was key.
Victoria went to work as usual, showing no signs of distress. Although everyone knew about her fallout with the Kennedy family, they couldn't see any sadness in her.
Was she just putting on a brave face?
Everyone felt more sympathy for her.
Being disowned is tough for anyone, especially when your family abandons you in your time of need. The Kennedy family was really cruel.
In Country M, Alexander hadn't slept all night.
He hadn't heard from Victoria.
He knew she was independent and had her own plans.
But she didn't even tell him, seemingly wanting to handle it herself.
He was puzzled. His sources said she had a long talk with Adrian in Jakarda City, but the Barnes family didn't publicly blame her for injuring Anthony.
Then today, the Kennedy family suddenly cut ties. How did they find out?
What did Victoria and Adrian discuss yesterday?
Or did they make a deal?
Alexander thought about the condition he set for her to resolve her issues with the Kennedy family in two months. Was this her solution?
Something was off. He knew Adrian was cunning. There were no fools in business.
Adrian wouldn't help Victoria without a catch. There must be something he missed.
"Dylan, investigate Adrian," Alexander ordered.
"Got it," Dylan replied.
