“I’ve chastised you in the past, urging you to make amends for your mistakes. I never imagined you’d sink even lower and resort to trying to kill Stella.”
His brow furrowed, his tone growing colder.
“Do you have any idea that Stella…”
Waldo’s words hung in the air, but Lucia intervened with a gentle touch on his hand, urging him to halt.

This verdict effectively expelled Jeremy and Charlene from the Clark family.
Jeremy’s and Charlene’s faces paled.
This was a turn of events they had never anticipated.
Charlene stumbled towards Waldo and pleaded tearfully, “Dad, please grant us another chance. Our actions were motivated by the well-being of the Clark family and to heighten Matthew’s vigilance. You can’t do this to us…”
Waldo coldly shrugged off her grasp, causing Charlene to fall awkwardly to the floor.
