Matilda smiled, tapping her finger on her lip.
Kathy’s lips turned purple with anger.
she was about to reproach Matilda and Allen.
However, she couldn’t say it, her mind in a mess.
Shelby wanted to gain favor with Kathy.
Even knowing that Matilda would give her a piece of her mind, she had to show her attitude.
t would be best if Matilda could scold her more viciously, so that Brandon would favor her more.
shelby said, “Kathy is, after all, an elder. Even if you don’t get along with her, Matilda, you shouldn’t curse her.”
I’m just giving a friendly reminder so Mrs. Grimes can take precautions.”
As Matilda spoke, she lowered her eyes to look at Shelby.
I suddenly have a question. Who did Lola hear the word ‘bastard’ from?

Jolene has a mother, but she unfortunately passed away. But you, Shelby, your father is still unknown, so maybe you’re the
eal…”
Matilda didn’t pronounce the word “bastard”.
However, Shelby understood the lip reading.
She was stabbed where it hurt, and her face turned ashen instantly. Her childhood memories were heartbreaking.
From the time she could remember, she was taken around to different men by her mother.
She was beaten and scolded by those men and called a bastard until she was eight, when the nightmare ended after meeting Brandon.
Matilda wanted to say a few more words to Lola.
But experience told her that Lola wouldn’t listen to her and would cause new conflicts.
So, she nodded to Gillian.
Allen also nodded to Gillian.
Jolene said goodbye.
The three left the office and walked out together.
Cillian was amazed by the two’s sharp tongues and tacit understanding.
She watched the two holding Jolene’s hand, walking away in the sunset.
She desperately wanted to ship them as a couple.

If these two became a couple, they would definitely be an invincible combination.
Kathy was so pissed that she couldn’t breathe.
She tugged at the scarf around her neck and felt relieved only after cursing, Matilda a few times.
Lola understood what she meant and found Matilda more and more annoying.
Shelby said, “Let’s go, too.”
Unexpectedly, a loud and shrill female voice came from behind.
“Hold on. Jolene’s debt is settled, but Lola’s debt has not been settled yet.”
Gillian secretly twitched her mouth. “This is endless.”
She said nicely, “Mrs. Ponce, this…”
Elsa cut her off, “Ms. Fisher, please stay out of it. This time, we adults will resolve it.”
Elsa was at a disadvantage with Matilda, like she had eaten a mouthful of mud, and she had to spit it out.

Just now, Matilda asked Lola to apologize to Robin. Although it didn’t happen in the end, at least she had the thought.
That was better than the hypocritical mistress in front of her.
Anyway, Elsa’s family business didn’t depend on the Grimes family, so she had nothing to worry about.
Kathy was on the verge of exploding.
She and Elsa went at it hammer and tongs, cursing each other at will for a while.
Gillian quickly covered Lola’s ears.
Cursing was a physical activity that tested lung capacity.
Kathy was already out of breath after only a few minutes of cursing.
She said to Shelby, “It’s your turn.”
No matter how good Shelby was at arguing, when she met Elsa, who didn’t listen or care, and only focused on speaking her own mind, it was like talking to air.
Elsa started ranting at Shelby.
Lola has been misled by a woman like you. At such a young age, she instigates her classmates who show her affection and uses them to hurt others. Only a mistress like you, who climbed up the social ladder, could do such a thing.
“You act one way in front of people and another way behind their backs, crying and making trouble for no reason. Why don’t you look in the mirror and see if you are prettier than Lola’s real mother?
“In my opinion, you must have used some tricks to drive Lola’s mother away. Otherwise, why would she abandon her own child? What? Are you going to cry again? I won’t fall for that.”
Seeing Shelby being scolded so harshly that she was about to cry, Lola wiped away the tears on her face.

She roared, “You are not allowed to talk about my mommy. She is the prettiest, much prettier than Matilda…”
“You little ungrateful brat.” Elsa cursed and pulled Robin over.
You are not allowed to play with her again. Do you hear me?”
Robin nodded timidly, “Yes, Mom, I hear you.”
Are you going to cry again? I won’t fall for that!?’
shelby knew exactly who would fall for that.
Because of the wounds on his head and face, Brandon worked from home.
And he had online meetings instead.
However, the camera wouldn’t focus on his face.

The X3 R&D approach has changed, and we will conduct in-depth joint R&D with Buretin Imaging. The design scheme has been determined, and the specific circuit design will be carried out next. At all costs, we must beat Coreline Eternity to…”
Brandon had just finished the meeting when Shelby came in with red eyes.
He inexplicably felt a little irritable.
He could guess what Shelby was going to say before she opened her mouth.
He originally asked Tully to pick up Lola today.
But Shelby said she wanted to go herself.
t happened that Kathy was also there, so the two went together.
ust as he had expected, it made him feel even worse.
However, he knew it was not Shelby’s fault, and he would not blame the wrong person.
Brandon rubbed the top of Shelby’s hair and comforted her.
Don’t care about what others say. In my heart, you are as innocent and lovely as you were when you were a child.”
After saying that, he gave the set of jewelry he had bought for Matilda to Shelby.
With sweet words and the three-million-dollar jewelry, Shelby smiled through her tears.
But Lola, full of grievances, also wanted to vent out to her father.
She thought that after Brandon listened to her complaints, he would hug her, comfort her, and then try to find a way to help her get even, just like before,
Unexpectedly, Brandon suddenly became serious.
“Do you know what ‘bastard’ means? How could you call your classmate a bastard? Who taught you that?”
Lola had never seen Brandon glare at her.

She became dazed for a moment.
“It’s…” Lola mumbled, turned her head, and looked at Shelby.
