Louis dragged her aside. “Is this still not embarrassing enough for you?”When the woman saw his appearance, her arrogance was instantly halved. “Mr. Lucas, you’re finally here! You have to be the judge of this matter for me. We’ll put the fact that this boy has beaten my son aside first. This woman just slapped me a few minutes ago!”“Mrs. Linwood, your son should apologize first for his impertinent remark.”Mrs. Linwood was dumbfounded. “My son... Since when did my son speak rudely? It was my son who got beaten. Besides, it was this woman who made a move on me first.”“If you want to get to the bottom of the matter between these children, you can pay the surveillance room a visit and check the footage out. As for the matter between you and this lady...” Louis gave Ryleigh, who was tidying her clothes at the moment, a sideways glance.Ryleigh met his gaze and instantly burst into wrathful laughter. “What are you looking at? You’re going to tell me that I’m at fault, aren’t you? M
Ryleigh was 5 foot 3 in height, and she was also dressed in a rather girlish style. Thus, she indeed looked a little short when she was standing in front of Louis, who was 6 foot 2 in height. But saying that she was flat-chested!?That might not be very aggressive, but it was extremely insulting!Colton laughed out loud.“Colton, you’re too much! You actually partnered up with such a person to bully your godmother. Do you believe that I won’t inform your mother about what you’ve just done?”Colton dashed to her immediately and hugged her coquettishly. “Godmother, it’s my fault, so don’t tell Mommy about this!”Seeing Colton acting all adorable and coquettish in front of her, Ryleigh became very gentle and cute again.When Colton saw the caller ID displayed on the smartwatch, his expression changed instantly. “Oops, Mommy is here to pick me up already!”Ryleigh took Colton out of the campus and saw a dazzling Rolls-Royce parked at the gate.“Mommy!” Colton rushed to hug Maisie a
“What are you doing?” Madam Vanderbilt felt uncomfortable deep down upon seeing him put his silverware down and throw a silent tantrum for no obvious reason.“You should know the relationship between Mr. Goldmann and Zee. Don’t think I don’t know what you have in mind. If you dare to go and argue with Zee, then you can go back to the ancestral mansion already.”Stephen had endured it for too long. He has endured a lot more than usual just because she was his biological mother.“What? How dare you threaten your own mother?”“I’m glad to hear that you still know that I’m your son.” Stephen calmed down. “Zee is your granddaughter, but you’ve never cared about her. Do you value your grandson so much? If you didn’t value a grandson as much as you do, I would have divorced Leila a long time ago. I wouldn’t have to be made a fool by her fake pregnancy scheme.”“A… A fake pregnancy?” Madam Vanderbilt was bewildered.She was still wondering why she had not seen Leila at home all day, thin
‘Madam Vanderbilt had always been keeping a close eye on it.’Maisie’s eyes narrowed slightly. “I must attend this meal if those people from the Vanderbilts are really planning to lay their hands on Vaenna.”“Zee, do you want me to accompany you there? After all, who knows what they’ll do.” Kennedy was worried about her attending this meal alone.Maisie was caught up in her thoughts for a split second.‘Kennedy is right. They must have a purpose since they asked to meet me. I don't know what they might do. In any case, I must go prepared.’…Maisie stepped into a high-end restaurant. She had tied her long hair into a neat high ponytail, was dressed in a black and white color-blocked dress with split ends, and had a pair of golden sequin earrings.She attracted a lot of attention from the guests around the area when she walked into the hotel.Seeing her extraordinary temperament, the waitress standing at the reception stepped forward and asked enthusiastically, “Miss, do you hav
“Yeah, Zee, anyhow, the Zimmermans are quite reputable in Coralia. You don’t have to worry about anything if you were to get married to this family.” Yanis and Madam Vanderbilt chimed in with each other perfectly as if they could not wait to marry Maisie to the Zimmermans at this very moment.Maisie chuckled. “I even have kids. Are the Zimmermans so desperate that you welcome the kids that come in a package with the daughter-in-law of your choice?”Yanis and Mrs. Zimmerman’s expressions changed upon hearing this. While Madam Vanderbilt responded immediately, “Zee, what are you talking about? Since when did you have children?”“Whether I have kids, you’ll know more about that after you’ve confirmed the details with Father.” Maisie crossed her arms and leaned back slightly. “The children’s father is actually Mr. Goldmann. So no matter how prestigious the Zimmermans are in Coralia, how can they be comparable to Mr. Goldmann?”Mrs. Zimmerman looked embarrassed in an instant. She glared
‘She’s a woman that has slept with other men, and she’s still planning to bring her kids along when she moves into the Zimmermans? That’s impossible.’But seeing how her son was reacting, Mrs. Zimmerman could only accept the fact that Maisie was a woman who had had children.‘She still has to come over and serve me after moving into the Zimmermans.’“Oh, do you want me to abandon my children?” Maisie smiled.“Zee, the Zimmermans don’t even care about the children, yet you still want to bring your children along when you marry Jimmy? Are you out of your mind?” Madam Vanderbilt sounded anxious.‘Is this b*tch planning to ruin the marriage arrangement? Keep dreaming!’Madam Vanderbilt quickly glanced at Yanis.Yanis naturally understood what she meant.‘Anyway, what’s been done can never be undone. We’ll make it happen today even if we have to achieve our goal through force.’How the Vanderbilts supported each other’s play halfway through the meal could almost form a theatrical a
When Linda turned around and was about to leave, Maisie suddenly opened her eyes, got up, walked forward, and stunned her.Seeing that Linda had dropped to the floor and lost consciousness, Maisie dragged her onto the couch in the small private room. “Heh, since you’ve planned to set me up, then don’t blame me for giving you a dose of your own medicine.”It was fortunate that she had come prepared. She had stopped at a pharmacy and bought some special antidote that could nullify rape-date drugs while she was on her way here. She had also taken it while traveling here, and its effect would last for four hours.The drinks placed in front of her had indeed been fully sealed, but it was a pity that she had noticed the tiny pinholes that were so subtly poked next to the opening of the bottles that they were difficult to detect.She drew the curtains, and the interior of the private room instantly dimmed. She then noticed the sound of someone opening the door coming from the outside, so
“This… This should have been Maisie. How did it become…” Madam Vanderbilt staggered.‘Didn’t we drug that sl*t?’Maisie walked in and covered her mouth slowly. “Ah! What is this?”“Maisie, you b*tch! It’s you, isn’t it? You’ve ruined my daughter!” Yanis stepped forward, wanting to slap Maisie, but Maisie managed to evade.Maisie hid beside Mrs. Zimmerman nimbly. “How can you blame me for this? Linda was the one who told me that she’s been admiring Mr. Zimmerman for a long time while sending me over. She even knocked me out. I was already in another private room when I woke up.”“Bullsh*t! You’re clearly—”The unconscious woman who was lying on the couch gradually opened her eyes and woke up. She then saw so many people standing in the room and felt a torrent of pain throughout her whole body. She immediately lowered her head, only to find herself naked. Her expression changed in an instant as she grabbed her clothes to cover her body. “Why… Why am I here…”She then saw Maisie an
