"Mom, I'm sorry. I was wrong" Candy sobbed, covering her face. "Next time, could you just slap my left cheek, please? My right side is numb.
Her left cheek was animated while the right side of her face was stiff, making her look both pitiable and ridiculous.

Candy cried even harder Tim sorry, Gwendolyn. Il never speak ill of you again. The thing with Jack, it was all my fault. You can slap me, scold me, anything" Candy knew that Gwendolyn had skind of healing touch for her facial paralysis.
But she had seriously offended Gwendolyn, and how did this country girl have such influence? "Why would you do such a thing to me? We have no quamels," Gwendolyn asked Choking back tears, Candy replied, "Selina is my best friend. I wanted you to divorce Howard, so I thought I could blackmail you with pictures. I swear I didn't hire anyone to hurt you" Gwendolyn's anger surged. "Did you ever stop to think about how those photos could shatter my reputation?" I'm truly sorry" Candy wept with genuine remorse.
Valor snorted, “Crocodile tears. You and your so-called best friend are cut from the scloth." Candy hurriedly explained. "I did it behind Selina's back, and she didn't know anything" Mrs. Walker shot a disappointed glance at her daughter and said, "Mrs. Chadwick, the Walker family is prepared to make amends privately, whatever it takes, within our means.” The Walker family was after a letter of forgiveness.
At that moment, Howard finally spoke up. "Mrs. Walker, is that all?" His eyes seemed to see night through her.
Mrs. Walker had hoped to negotiate slowly, not to offend the Chadwicks, but Howard saw through her ploy "There's another matter. Dr. Yates from acupuncture suggested that you, Mrs. Chadwick, might heal Candy's paralysis with your gifted hands. We would be grateful if you could help." "You Walkers always have an angle," Howard sneered, "Gwendolyn's help isn't cheap anymore." "Of course, Mrs. Walker braced herself to pay whatever the cost, even if it meant half of her fortune.
"Gwendolyn, Ill never speak ill of you again. If you say go east, I won't dare go west Candy pleaded pitifully, knowing the value of a girl's face.
Everyone turned to Gwendolyn, waiting for her decision.

Mrs. Walker brightened up. "Anything at all." Gwendolyn, recalling Howard mentioning the Walkers' wealth, stated firmly. "Revamp the infrastructure in Honeysuckle Hollow." "That's easy," Mrs. Walker exclaimed.
"And.." Gwendolyn locked eyes with her, "Ten percent of the Walker m Group's annual profits go to charity" She was pushing her luck, testing Mrs. Walker's limits.
"Agreed. I'll make the financial reports public and donate the profits to the Stellar Crescent Foundation, to be managed by you and Mr. Chadwick. Any other conditions?" Gwendolyn shook her head, "That's it."
"That's it?" Mrs. Walker offered eagerly. "I could also donate to fifty new schools, Mrs. Chadwick, how does that sound?" Her demeanor was overly solicitous, almost to the point of groveling, which even shocked Valor.
Gwendolyn nodded, her tone softening. "Fine."
