In the hall of the old house.
Laurel continued after pausing for a while. “Well, Grandma, you must be wanting to talk about my
marriage with Bruno, right?”
Wendy was stunned. She didn’t expect Laurel to guess the right answer.
This wasn’t something Laurel experienced in her previous life because what happened last night didn’t
occur and neither did the trending topics. The reason why she could guess it was that these people had
been colluding with the Scott family to take over her right of inheritance.
Laurel embarrassed the Scott family, so Wendy had to seek. justice for them and teach Laurel a
lesson.
Laurel’s toughness surprised Wendy. Wendy felt ashamed just after a few words she said.
“I may as well tell you the truth. I indeed took Hayden’s gem last night and disgraced Bruno in public.”
As she was speaking, Laurel took out the shining sapphire.
The gem had dazzling light and flawless carvings. Along with its rarity and long history, the sapphire
made all women crazy about it, and even Wendy couldn’t help taking a few more looks.
However, on Wendy’s face was disdain for Laurel. “How dare you say that. Shame on you!”

“I took the gem for a reason. One, my family runs a business, and merchants won’t decline free meals.
I don’t have a reason to reject Hayden’s gift. Two, I’m well aware that you’re a gem collector, so when I
saw the sapphire, I knew you’d like it. If not for Hayden’s disruption, I’d have won the auction. Though I
failed in the end, I took it with a clear conscience since he was willing to give it to me.”
Wendy was yet to fully understand.
Laurel added, “I was going to give the gem to you.”
The look in Wendy’s eyes changed.
She was tempted.
She had heard about this gem but knew that she was unable to win the auction, so she never
mentioned it. But now, it was right in front of her. How could she not be attracted?
“Didn’t Belle ask my mother if she brought you gifts? We did, but unfortunately…” Laurel said with a
smile. “You said that you didn’t care.”
Wendy felt a heavy slap in the face at that moment.
She was going to say “if that’s what you think”, but she held back.
Laurel didn’t give Wendy the chance to take back her words.
Wendy just glared at Laurel and the shining sapphire on her finger. She wanted it so much.
“Stop showing off! Do you think Wendy is a snobbish. person?” Belle interrupted to feed into her
arrogance.

Wendy shot daggers at Belle.
She just made things worse!

Laurel could tell from Wendy’s expression that she regretted it so much. She didn’t expect the gift to be
a gem.
But Laurel already brought the gem here, so Wendy had to believe that it was a sincere gift.
The more Wendy thought about it, the more awkward she felt.
Laurel echoed, “Belle, you’re right. How could Grandma be so snobbish? She would never go back on
her words.”
“That’s for sure!” replied Belle.
Wendy’s face was in utter lividness.
Kermit understood everything after seeing this scene. He stopped Belle. “That’s enough. Just shut up.”
Belle glanced at Kermit with displeasure.
Wendy swallowed. “I don’t care why you took Hayden’s gem and I don’t have time to find out the
reason. I’m just warning you that you must not screw up your marriage. You can’t find another good
guy like Bruno once you miss him. You’d better know what you should do!”
“Grandma, I don’t need you to worry about my marriage.”
“Do you think I want to do that? I’m just worried that the marriage will be canceled. Do you think Bruno
would marry no one other than you?” Wendy belittled Laurel as much as she could whenever she had
a chance.

Laurel thought that it was because of Wendy that she compromised so much and was unconfident in
her previous
life.
“I don’t know if I’m the only woman he’s interested in, but I have to make it clear that he’s not the only
guy I want! Grandma, you don’t have to show your concern about my marriage. After all, when
Grandma wanted me to marry Bruno, you strongly opposed it.” Laurel spoke out all the words she
dared not say in the previous life.
Anyway, she had fallen out with her family. She wasn’t the embarrassed one.
“What nonsense did you say?” Wendy was provoked by Laurel again.
“Grandma, didn’t you want to pair Avril up with Bruno? You even threatened Grandpa with all kinds of
methods. Your failed in the end. I’ll misinterpret your kindness for ulterior motives when you care about
my marriage all of a sudden!”
“Laurel, you ingrate. You…” Wendy’s face turned livid from Laurel’s speech. She wished she could kill Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Laurel with a slap.
“Don’t tell me to get lost again. I’ve reminded you. I’m tactful enough and I know that staying here will
only annoy you. I’d like just a few more words before leaving.” Laurel ignored Wendy’s fury and still
looked calm.
“Grandma, you should care less about our family affairs. You’re quite old and should enjoy the last
moments of your life. The younger generations can take care of their life, so I think you should let go.”
“Are you saying that I’m nosy?” Wendy snorted coldly.

“Don’t you know what you’ve been doing?” Laurel didn’t intend to give Wendy a way out.
Wendy’s face was full of anger.

“Grandma, take care. We’ll be leaving.” Laurel turned a blind eye to Wendy’s emotions.
She knew her grandmother too well.
Once given a chance, she would turn the world upside down.
From now on, she had to get rid of Wendy’s arrogance.
Laurel held Blanca’s hand to leave.
But she thought of something before walking away.
She turned her head.
This time, she was talking to Kermit. “Kermit, today is not the weekend. Why do you not work in the
company?”
Kermit’s expression immediately changed..
“My cousins are not working as well, are they?” Laurel raised
her brows.
“What do you want to say?” Kermit fiercely stared at Laurel.
“Nothing.” Laurel smiled. “I just understand why Grandpa chose my father to be the heir. If our family
business had been given to you, we’d have fallen.”
“Laurel, do you think you can do and say everything at will? I’ll kill you. Believe it or not!”
