Carrie remarked, “When I saw the stand-in, I thought she was my twin sister. Her body shape, face, and voice are all very similar.”

Carrie believed it was remarkable that two unrelated individuals could resemble each other so closely. She had never met the stand-in before, and when they first encountered each other, both were taken aback, thinking their parents might have had other children.
This realization heightened Carrie’s apprehension towards Mr. Labbe. In just a few days, he had found a stand-in who perfectly mimicked Carrie’s habits and speech.
“Does your sister really have no suspicions?” Mr. Labbe inquired. He was pleased with his choice but recognized Camryn’s intelligence. Despite being blind for ten years, Camryn was sharp and observant. Could it be so easy for her to accept the stand-in as Carrie?
“There’s no doubt at all. Even their voices match. Why would she have any reason to question it?”
Carrie had raised suspicions before since she hadn’t learned to alter her voice, which made Camryn and Serenity wary.
“It’s just one instance, so we can’t be certain. If you perform the scenes a few more times and she continues to have no doubts, then she will believe it,” Mr. Labbe warned. “There are many astute individuals around Camryn. Be careful they don’t realize you’re using a stand-in.”
Carrie smiled, saying, “Mr. Labbe, you worry too much. Camryn and I have been sisters for over 20 years. I know her well. If she suspected it wasn’t me, she wouldn’t even pay attention. However, to ease your concerns, we’ll act out more scenes. By the way, she upset Callum and was slapped a few times by the York family bodyguards. She wants compensation. You can decide how much and transfer the money to me.”
Mr. Labbe replied, “Once you both agree on the amount, let me know, and I’ll provide it to you.”
Carrie, noticing an…
“You have the opportunity to earn some money,” he smiled. “That’s fine. I’ll talk to her when I get home. Just a few hundred dollars per slap.”
Mr. Labbe replied, “Regardless of the amount, as long as you feel it’s worth it. You performed well today. I’ll transfer some money to your account for you to buy jewelry or bags, whatever you prefer.”
Upon hearing this, Carrie sweetly thanked him, saying, “Thank you, Mr. Labbe. I will work harder.”
“Keep up the good work, and aim to gain Serenity’s trust and become her friend soon.” Mr. Labbe wanted Carrie to infiltrate Serenity’s circle before the New Year. Serenity might encounter Jane at a party, where they could verify whether Jane’s adopted son was the one Mr. Labbe was searching for. He couldn’t rest easy until he found the boy and reclaimed what belonged to the family head.
Although he was the acting head of the family, he could never truly be the real head. Despite everything he had done, this was the outcome, and he was unwilling to accept it!
