Priscilla's dissatisfaction escalated beyond mere scolding. She went so far as to instruct Romelius to intervene."Romelius, I command you, give her a good slap. I want this girl to know what it means to be taught a lesson," Priscilla ordered.Against her wishes, Romelius stood firm and tenderly patted Lana's head."Lana, ease up. Avoid any harsh words, or you might just end up ticking her off."Mandy added, "Seriously, Lana, it's best if you leave for now. We'll handle this situation."Romelius and Mandy calmly continued coaxing Lana out of the room, seemingly oblivious to Priscilla's presence.Frustration overwhelmed Priscilla. She couldn't suppress her anger any longer. "So, now you're all ganging up against me?" she exclaimed. "Fine, if you all wish for my death, I'll ensure it unfolds right before your eyes."She once again wielded the paring knife, pressing it against her neck.Certainly, they must have been fearful, right?By pushing her to this extent, surely no one
Emilia would have dismissed this kind of scam without a second thought if it hadn't unfolded on the Garrison family's premises.The pleasantly plump elderly woman was adorned in unassuming attire. She was unmistakably not a guest of the Garrisons.A genuine guest wouldn't find themselves meandering solo within the Garrison Villa.The awe-inspiring mountain scenery alone held the ability to captivate Emilia endlessly.Without giving Violet a chance to react, the white Lamborghini roared away."Damn it!" Violet cursed in frustration.Disregarding the money Emilia had tossed aside, Violet proceeded toward the cable car station.As she reached the station, Violet found herself unexpectedly face-to-face with Emilia.Tension hung thick in the air as their paths crossed once more.Emilia couldn't fathom why this persistent old woman wouldn't disappear.Why was she following her all the way here?Before Violet could board the cable car, Emilia quipped, "Hey, what's your deal, old la
After the guests settled into their seats, Hector gracefully took the stage, expressing gratitude for their presence and blessings on his grandson's special day.Concluding with an invitation to enjoy the feast, he returned to the main table, only to discover Liam and Violet were missing.Perplexed, he turned to Darla. "Darla, where are Lee and your grandmother?"Darla, with a concerned expression, explained Violet's going off alone and Liam's ongoing search. "Lee is still looking for Grandma right now!""What? Why wasn't I informed earlier? I'll dispatch security right away to locate her," Hector exclaimed.Having mobilized the security team, Hector tried calling Liam, only to learn that Violet was already safely back.However, her disheveled state caught their attention—dirty clothes, tousled hair, and a complexion that hinted at distress.Hector personally escorted Violet to freshen up, determined to uncover what had transpired.In clean attire, with help from Darla and the
Emilia, adept at navigating diverse social circles since childhood, took pride in her sophistication.Even when detecting the slightest hint of a potential misstep, she effortlessly maintained a commendable composure. Wearing a serene and collected smile, she gracefully approached Violet."Grandma Violet, what a delightful surprise to encounter you at the foot of the mountain. Fate has truly brought us together," Emilia remarked with a warm and friendly tone.With an affectionate gesture, she gracefully linked her arm with Violet's. "Have you been staying in Dawsbury recently? Allow me to play the host and show you around."Violet was immediately taken aback.This young lady not only possessed an inflated sense of superiority but also displayed a remarkable lack of shame in her demeanor.Typically, upon realizing a mistake, offering an apology would be the expected course of action.However, Emilia deviated from the norm. She pretended as if nothing had happened and immediately
After attending Hector's grandson's milestone celebration, Cherry couldn't shake off her gloomy mood.She decided to have a heart-to-heart with Hector, expressing her desire to find her place in Dawsbury instead of staying at Garrison Villa.Considering the remote location might not align with the preferences of young people who enjoy lively surroundings, Hector agreed to her request.When the time came for Cherry to leave, Liam volunteered to drive her to her new place.The atmosphere in the car mirrored their usual interactions at home—Liam focused on driving, and Cherry occupied the passenger seat, engrossed in scrolling through social media and shopping apps.An unspoken understanding permeated the air, and neither of them disturbed the other.As the car pulled up to the renowned hotel, Liam caught Cherry off guard by handing her an exclusive bank card just as she was about to step out.Perplexed, she glanced at him and asked, "Why are you giving me your exclusive bank card?
Soon, the companies participating in the bidding began to take the stage to introduce the products they had developed.As time went on, Lana and Matthew grew more confident.From their perspective, the products developed by other companies were simply not in the same league as theirs.Whether in terms of cost or space, their product was the best.As the presentation went on, Matthew's smile became increasingly radiant.Lana felt the same way as well. They were confident that they would win this tender, as long as no other strong competitors appeared today.However, they soon realized that things don't always go as planned.Soon, Emilia, representing the Watson family's aerospace company, took the stage and began her presentation.However, as soon as her presentation was projected onto the screen, Lana and Matthew's faces drained of color.They looked at each other in disbelief, then turned back to look at the product Emilia was presenting on the stage.Matthew said in disbeli
Lana became an overnight sensation after "slandering" Emilia's impressive achievements during the bidder conference.However, this time she became famous for the wrong reasons!Would Lana's aerospace company still be able to continue its operation in Dawsbury after offending a behemoth like the Watson family?Why was Lana so courageous at that moment?She actually dared to slander Emilia in front of so many people?She was simply too bold!Under Emilia's personal Twitter account, numerous sharp-tongued individuals turned up to join the "battle". Some even managed to dig up Lana's Twitter account and began to mercilessly attack her through her post. Some even went as far as sending direct messages to attack her personally."You think you're all that just because you're Mandy's daughter? Do you think you can simply slander others? You really live up to being the daughter of an actress, a true drama queen.""You used to be so quick with your comebacks, but now you're so quiet. A
"If I need your help, I will definitely ask for it. For now, I can still handle it."Lana, as always, refused Liam's help whenever something happened.She just thought that it wasn't the right time yet. She could still handle the situation at hand.However, her actions only made Liam feel even more sorry for her.Liam suddenly stepped forward and enveloped Lana in a tight embrace. "What am I supposed to do with you? I can't stand seeing you treated like this."Lana obviously had such a strong supporter by her side. Even if she used Liam once, he wouldn't suffer any loss.Such were the thoughts going through Liam's mind. Lana tightly embraced Liam back. "Can you please stop worrying about me? I'm really not as fragile as you think I am."Lana had overcome many difficulties in the past. Such a small matter was nothing to her.Liam suddenly proposed, "I'll go have a talk with Emilia!"Lana let go of him and stared into his deep eyes for a while. Then she smiled and said, "Even
