Chapter 277
“Mind your words. You should reflect on your attitude before scolding me. Anyway, I’d like to point out that your castle is no longer habitable. I’m sure it’s infested with mice and cockroaches. The foundation must have decayed a long time ago. Renovating it now would be like administering medicine to a corpse. You of all people should know that!”
“What are you driving at?” Liza roared, her throat itchy.
Loraine continued indifferently, “Take it as friendly advice. Anyway, I don’t care if you don’t. The castle was built hundreds of years ago. It has served its purpose already. It’s only a matter of time before it comes crumbling down. Don’t waste your money on renovating it!”
“Hey, you are still adding salt to injury! Have you gone mad?”
Liza assumed that Loraine was not just talking about the old castle, but rather using it to satirize her deteriorating health.
Loraine rolled her eyes.
She didn’t give a shit about people who refused to take her advice. She had made her point clear, so she hung up on Liza, who was swearing non-stop.
The world suddenly returned to its peaceful state. What a waste of time to argue with a nasty old lady on the phone! It was best to invest her precious time in work, wasn’t it?
Meanwhile, Liza, who was cut off by the disconnect tone, almost passed out due to anger.
Keely hurriedly patted her back until Liza calmed down a Little.
To get into Liza’s good books, Keely stayed by her side and looked after her dutifully.
“Mrs. Bryant, please calm down. Loraine is not worth your anger. She’s an uncultured and despicable creature. That arrogant bitch isn’t the only architectural designer in the world. There are a host of others.
I’m almost back on my feet. How about you put me in charge of the renovation? I also studied architectural design back in college. I’m confident that you will be satisfied with my work. It will be better than Loraine’s.”
Keely acted like a well-mannered young woman who just wanted to be of help. But she had other plans in mind.
She reasoned that if she pulled off the renovation of the castle, Liza wouldn’t mind picking her as the new granddaughter-in-law. She figured that Marco would have no choice but to marry her at that time.
Liza rose to the bait almost immediately.
“ALL right. I’ll put you in charge of the renovation. You have to do an excellent job so Loraine will know you are better than her!”
Keely and Liza were discharged from the hospital several days Later.
The Bryant family was shocked when they saw Keely.
Liza didn’t like Keely. Why did she bring Keely back with her? This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
“Keely, why are you here?” Marco frowned.
Keely looked at him with a pout.
“We haven’t met in so long. Don’t you have anything else you can say to me?”
