*****Inside the Johnson Family's estate.Although the Old Matriarch couldn’t pinpoint the reason, ever since she had Fiona and her family removed from the main branch yesterday, she’s been feeling kind of greatly relieved.Presently, the old woman who just woke up not long ago after a night of amazing rest could be seen having her breakfast.Looking at her right now, her look has reverted to how it had been the previous two days ago, filled with energy.‘Had I known all along that this woman’s family would be the cause of my sleepless nights and unhappiness, I would have driven them away years ago.’ She couldn’t help but think to herself in a good moodThat’s right, she just thought this.Although it wasn’t known to the public ears, Fiona’s father was actually not the Old Matriarch’s son.In fact, she was only married to David’s father after David’s mother died.Back then, David was just a little bit over a year old when his mother died, and although the old Patriarch, David
***** The moment Fiona who was inside heard this voice, she became furious and irritated.‘What are these greedy bunch doing here again'She hissed to herself before jumping to her feet and walking toward the entrance door.…..“Aish! Look who we have here!”The moment the three women of Sally’s age saw Fiona, one of them uttered with a mockery-filled voice, making the coldness on Fiona’s face intensify, but these women doesn’t seem to care at all.“Pretty girl, were you still able to cope with this fool?”Another one of them suddenly questioned with a voice filled with care but a face filled with sarcasm.“I doubt that. Well… you should blame your mother because I’ve advised her times without number for her to marry you to my awesome son who's a manager of a big hotel.”The third one added.Hearing all this and seeing their bitchy behavior, although Rex Magnus was currently furious to death, he choose not to act.The fact that his wife who on a normal day would ha
***** While the daughter and mother duo were stunned to the core right now, a funny look appeared on Rex Magnus' face.‘Were they talking about the same family whose old man I treated?’‘Yes, it should be.’Thinking of this, Rex Magnus's lips abruptly formed a slight smirk, then he felt his pocket with one of his hands.Realizing that the Golden Card was still there, the smile on his face widen, turning playful.‘Didn’t that ass kisser tell me I could pretty much do anything I want at their properties as long as I have this card on me?’Recalling this, Rex Magnus abruptly glanced at his wife’s face, then he became deeply excited.Of cause, Rex Magnus wasn’t that dumb, so he has long realized that the three women currently before them were trying to use him to insult his mother-in-law and wife.As much as Rex Magnus was excited about his mother-in-law’s present situation, the anger he was also feeling at him and his wife being taken as a joke couldn’t be overlooked.
***** The moment the old Matriarch was escorted inside the company, she felt the atmosphere filled with excitement, but she didn’t give a single fuck when everybody in sight rushed to greet her respectfully.Without responding to them, she rushed to the CEO's office exhilaratingly while busily imagining the important person said to be present by her grandson.But the moment she reached the entrance to the office, she stopped for a moment to calm her thundering heart which was caused by the way she had run.It was only after some moments of effort does she finally calmed down greatly and the countenance of a grandiose old grandmother descended upon her.This was the countenance she had on at her birthday banquet before Rex Magnus and Alan Bottoms got involved.After she eventually successfully controlled her emotions, the Old Matriarch finally mustered her courage and pressed the little button on the door.Even before she could take the finger she had used off, the door
*****Back inside Fiona's Villa.Sally whose mouth just stopped moving a few seconds ago since her so-called sisters left could be seen staring dumbly and unfocused at Rex Magnus right now.It was as if she just recalled something which she hadn’t remembered all along.Witnessing this, Rex Magnus who hadn’t made not even a single sound even after his mother-in-law had cursed, insulted, and fired him was looking surprised at the moment when he saw the unexpected behavior of his mother-in-law.‘Is this a calm before another storm?’Sighing softly, Rex Magnus subconsciously shook his head as he immediately realized his thought should be right, then he turned a helpless gaze at his wife whose face has long been painted with helplessness.Upon realizing that she was also gazing at him, Rex Magnus smiled wryly, realizing that she was also thinking the same thing as him, then he glanced back at his mother-in-law.Before Rex Magnus gazed back at his mother-in-law, neither he nor his w
***** Just as beads of sweat were starting to appear on Ethan's forehead, the Old Matriarch finally opened her mouth and spoke, gazing intently at Rivers Rodriguez. “On behalf of the company, I apologize for not informing you before taking the action we took. We also have no other option than to act because our hands were tied.”The instant Ethan Heard this, he hurriedly nodded his head profusely, supporting his grandmother's statement. ‘Ho! You are so great, grandmother! Even I who knew the best almost believed you, what would this man who knew nothing do?’If Rivers Rodriguez was to hear his thought right now, he would have become utterly speechless while thinking in his mind that he wasn’t a fool like Ethan because right now, Rivers Rodriguez was only filled with sarcasm in his mind.‘These pair of Grandmother and her Grandson… are they taking me as a fool?’Just as he thought this, Rivers Rodriguez abruptly released a deep sigh, startling both the Matriarch and h
*****Crest Company, inside the CEO's office.“What choice would I make?”The Old Matriarch couldn’t help but repeat blankly to herself, her face looking like someone who has lost all purpose in life.If someone were to compare the current Old Matriarch to the one who left her estate with enthusiasm not long ago, they would discover zero similarities, including their appearance.Seeing her like this, nobody showed her any pity whatsoever.Still gazing emotionlessly at her, Rivers Rodriguez finally replied to the Old Matriarch’s previous question, repeating his previous words.“Yes, Madamé Johnson, what choice would you make?” Rivers Rodriguez appeared indifferent to the plight of the elderly woman and her grandson. Meanwhile, his two aides behind him fixated their gaze on Ethan and his grandmother, displaying curious expressions.It was as if they were hoping for the duo to choose a particular option so much.Back to the Old Granny.Upon hearing Rivers Rodriguez repeat his
*****“That’s right, Old Woman, it is us two brothers that taught him a lesson, and if not for master that stopped us, I wouldn’t have minded turning him into a waste to teach him a lesson he would never forget for the rest of his life just for the fact that he dared to be rude to our master like that!”The Old Matriarch became dumbfounded when she heard this, and followed by this was a great awkwardness which also immediately disappeared the moment it arrived.Just like in a fast-track movie, all sorts of expressions began to flick on the Old Matriarch's face.At last, a tinge of anger coupled with hatred, helplessness, worry, and tiredness remained on the Old Matriarch's face.After staring at Rivers Rodriguez for a while, the Old Matriarch eventually turns back to stare at her precious grandson with the most caring gaze ever.“Grand… grandma, I’m… I’m so scared!”Like a little kid who had been scared by ghosts, Ethan suddenly embarrassed his grandmother tightly, his face fil
