Chapter 45
The crowd was stunned. Had the young master of the Joyce family been bewitched?
Madam White was so angry, stomping her cane on the ground. “Ridiculous! Corey Joyce, this is our White family’s territory. It’s not your place to behave atrociously!”
Corey didn’t take her words seriously at all. The staff of the White family couldn’t resist the bodyguards of the Joyce family, so they didn’t dare to act rashly. Although Mr. Joyce had brought the girl to the gate and was about to get her in the car, no one was willing to take action. Everyone knew it was unreasonable, but they also knew that they didn’t need to offend the Joyce family for a widow. Besides, Harold was dead, and it was useless to have a wife. The other could just take her away at will.
Freda had always been wary of the Joyce family and had the same thought in her head. It was not worth it to offend the Joyce family for Crystal’s sake. But due to the fact that she was the White family’s daughter-in-law, she had no choice but to put on an act. As they were about to disappear, she ordered the servants to come forward. “Why don’t you get her back? Do I pay you to do nothing?!”
The servants hurried forward, looking as if they were trying not to do anything too offensive. “He’s completely lawless!” Madam White was so furious. The cane in her hand was about to pierce through the floor. “This b*stard… We won’t let him off!”
Freda comforted the old lady. “That’s right. With the strength of our family, we will deal with him sooner or later. Mother, don’t be too angry. It’s not good for your health.”
“I shouldn’t be angry? Your unfilial son is the reason why our White family has become like this!” Madam White vented her anger on Freda. “Think about how glorious the White family was when Harold was still alive. How would the Joyce family dare to come and make trouble here? My descendants are useless and they make I, an old woman, suffer with them!”This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
Freda felt wronged. “Mother, Corey and Harold have a grudge against each other. Why are you blaming Mark and me for what happened today? To put it bluntly, Harold used to be too cruel and merciless, and now, his retribution has come!”
“What did you say?!” Bonnie White rebuked angrily. “That b*tch Chloe had at least given birth to Harold. As for you, only useless kids crawled out of your belly! The latter is even more stupid than the former!”
The old woman had gone too far. Bonnie had always looked down on Chloe Graham, otherwise, she wouldn’t have forced the woman until she went crazy and killed herself. Everybody in City W knew this scandal. And now, in front of a lot of outsiders, she was said to be worse than Chloe, which meant she was no different from a lowly person.
Freda looked so grimaced, but she couldn’t talk back to Bonnie. She swallowed her anger, “Mother, we’re family. It’s better to keep the harmony. My children are still young, and they’ll be successful when they grow up… Look at Harold, wasn’t he like this? He was only capable when he grew up…
Don’t be angry. It’s time for you to take the medicine. We don’t want to see your blood pressure surging. I’ll call the Joyce family right now and let Clyde talk to Corey. He’s going too far!”
Until then, Madam White remembered Mr. Joyce. “You don’t have to do that. I’ll call him myself!”

Freda couldn’t wait to leave this place and go to appease the guests. After all, she had to care about the Whites’ reputation.
It was Crystal who suffered the most after such a scene.
The man was carrying her on his hard shoulder, which was uncomfortably pressing against her belly, giving her an impulse to vomit. “Hey… put me down, I can walk by myself…”
Corey felt that this little girl was quite obedient. “Really?”
Crystal said, “I’m just afraid to be carried.”
Corey put her down and stuffed her into the car. He put his hand on the car door, looking at her. “You
can throw up. Anyway, this car is only worth two million dollars. If you make it dirty, just give me the compensation.”
