Chapter 274 Care About Her
When Timothy spoke those words, everyone in the Hargreaves family’s faces changed.
Though Timothy had said similar things before, they hadn’t taken him seriously, thinking he wouldn’t really go to such lengths for Jennifer.
But after the cage incident, they truly believed he was capable of such things.
The three of them sat in the cage with growling stomachs, unable to imagine what it would feel like actually to starve for three days.

Asher turned to Jennifer. “Jennifer, I remember that even though you were locked in the basement, I still had the butler bring you food.”
As for why she hadn’t eaten it, well, that wasn’t his fault.
Timothy looked at Jennifer in surprise. “They brought you food?”
“On the surface, yes, someone brought food, but Sarah would either throw it on the ground or dump it out and make me
eat it off the floor.”
After Jennifer’s words, Timothy’s

expression grew even colder as he stared at Asher. “What do you have to say about this?”

Only then did Asher turn to Sarah. “Did you really do that?”
“Asher, I didn’t dump it on the ground! I just sometimes forgot when I was busy and delivered the meals a bit late, that’s all. I absolutely didn’t abuse Jennifer!”
Sarah’s voice trembled as she explained, terrified of provoking Timothy’s wrath.
The more arrogant and smug Sarah had been a few days ago, the more pathetic and frightened she was now.
Who could have guessed that Jennifer, who had been kicked out of the Clark
family just days ago, would now be back in Timothy’s good graces?

Timothy’s voice carried an icy edge. “I’m a

fair person. Whatever you did to my fiancée, I’ll do the same to you.”
After speaking, he glanced at Eric.
Eric caught on immediately, grabbed a plate and, scooped up some leftover food from the table, then shoved it into the cage.
But none of the three people in the cage made a move toward it.
Dylan stared at the food on the plate, growing angry. “Jennifer, I wasn’t even home when you were locked in the basement those days.”
It had nothing to do with him.
Timothy’s gaze was glacial. “But you run

“Timothy, didn’t you say you were fair? You think this behavior is fair?”

“Don’t preach kindness until you’ve walked in their shoes. That’s the principle here.”
Dylan felt incredibly frustrated.
Jennifer, seeing Dylan question Timothy, spoke up, “Dylan, if you admit that what Sarah did before was wrong, we could consider letting you out since you really weren’t home at the time.”
For a moment, Dylan was tempted. He

couldn’t stay trapped in this humiliating
cage.

Once he got out, he’d definitely withhold the lab’s drugs from Timothy. He’d wait until the Clark family came begging for his help.
This grudge from today would definitely
be settled.
Timothy added, “But if you leave, everyone else stays locked up an extra day.”
Dylan fell silent.
If he left now, wouldn’t that make him
look like a total sellout?
Dylan glanced at Sarah, who put on her

best understanding face. “Dylan, you should go. One less person in here is better than none.”
Her words only made Dylan feel more guilty.

After all, he and Asher had abandoned Sarah when they were underwater earlier.
Timothy continued, “This condition
remains in effect going forward.”
Jennifer noticed Dylan’s face darken at
these words.
She glanced at Timothy, impressed by how well he knew how to deal with the hypocritical Hargreaves family.
At that moment, Daniel approached.

“Jennifer, are you alright? I was wrong before. I should have been more forceful in getting you out of that basement.”

Jennifer’s expression remained calm as she faced Daniel’s apology. “I accept your apology, but that doesn’t mean I forgive you.”
“The damage done by keeping her locked in that basement can’t be erased with just an apology.”
Timothy looked at Daniel. “For these three days, you’ll be in charge of
supervising them and bringing them food. But there’s one condition. You must treat them exactly as they treated Jennifer when bringing her food.”
Daniel could only sigh helplessly. He had

no right to refuse.

He looked at Timothy. “I had no idea you cared so much about my sister.”
