Heartbreak was an understatement to explain what Laurel was feeling right now.
The anguish and the feeling of betrayal gnawed at her heart and suffocated her. She was crushed to learn James had been having an affair with Amelia.
However, what shattered her even more was the fact that Carl knew, and he helped them to be together.
In that case, what was her role here? What was her position in this family?
Even after all the things she had done for them, they didn't have the decency to tell her to her face that they didn't want her anymore; instead, they humiliated her.
They saw her as a fool who could be lied to.
For someone as prideful as Laurel, being fooled and humiliated like this was even worse than anything she had suffered.
It was even worse than the way the Starling family treated her when she joined the family for the first time ten years ago.
Whenever she saw them, she imagined they laughed at her ignorance.
"Laurel, are you okay?"
