Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks by Caspian Wood

My Billionaire Family 378

Chapter 378

Just when everyone thought it was over. Morris looked around the crowd again, asking, "Who was it that wanted

to teach my wife a lesson just now? And who dared to say she was uneducated, inconsiderate, and a bully?"

Even though he spoke calmly, there was a chilling threat in every word. No one dared to speak.

Mary wanted to defuse the situation, but Lucas stopped her, shaking his head.

After Morris got a chair for Cherise to sit down, he walked slowly over to Alice, looking straight at her.

There's no denying his intimidating presence even made the seasoned Alice shiver a little. "Morris, what is this?"

Everyone watched, unsure of what Morris intended to do to Alic. But it probably wouldn't be anything extreme.

Morris just stared at her, rolling his wrist until it cracked ominously. That move was really intimidating.

Lisa and Yulia exchanged a look, neither of them daring to step forward. Rita felt the same, as did everyone else.

It was better to avoid causing trouble.

A few seconds later, Morris coldly said, "Didn't think Mrs. Quinton would start using your age as an excuse? If you

don't apologize, it really will be hard to resolve."

As soon as Morris said this, many people found it quite scary.

Alice was the wife of Mary's eldest brother and the aunt of Arthur, the ruler of Clusia. After all, she was Morris's

relative and elder.

Now, Morris was even willing to cinto conflict with a highly esteemed elder for his wife.

Hearing Morris's words, Alice trembled with anger, shouting. "Morris, don't think that being the wealthiest makes

you special. | am your elder, your grandmother's sister-in-law.

"You don't even deserve an apology from me, let alone your wife who is practically from the countryside.

"Hey, this isn't right. My sister-in-law is really crossing the line with those words. What are we going to do about

it? No, we are the hosts of this party. | must go down and ensure justice is served, Mary said, attempting to

meddle in. Lucas quickly pulled Mary back, saying, "Jean, watch over your grandma. Don't let her disturb your

cousin Morris and his wife.

Jean was puzzled, feeling today was surreal, nodded, and said, "Okay."

Morris and Alice were still in a standoff.

Cherise stood up, walked over to Morris, and addressed Alice, "Didn't you just accuseof bullying with

influence? So now you're doing the sthing?

"I really didn't know being older gave someone the liberty to slander and criticize others as they please.

"With so many eyes watching, you say whatever you want, but don't you think your tendency to slander might

make others hesitant to get involved with your family in the future?

"After all, anyone who slightly displeases you is casually slandered by you. Looks like your family is going to have

speace and quiet, just the way you like it."

Honestly, these words touched Alice's heart.

For many years, it was thanks to their relationships with Mary and Arthur that so many people sucked up to the

Quinton family

The Quinton family gained quite a lot from these connections, but if no one cto flatter them anymore, how

would they manage?

Watching her grandmother being lectured by Morris and Cherise. Lisa quickly hurried to Alice's side.

Seeming humble, she addressed Morris and Cherise, "Mr. Chivers, Mrs. Chivers, we're all family here, can't we

both each take a step back? I'll apologize on behalf of my grandmother, can we just let this go and move on?"

Everyone thought Morris and Cherise would let it slide after Lisa's request.

Cherise gave Lisa a cold look and said, "And who are you? Why should | give you any respect? | haven't forgotten

that when Ms. Huber was smearing me, you were right there supporting her."

It was only after Cherise brought it up that everyone recalled the incident where Lisa indeed supported Amy.

The crowd started whispering among themselves.

"Now that the truth is out, it's clearly Amy who's at fault. Mrs. Quinton was just badmouthing Mrs. Chivers, so an

apology is definitely needed."

"She definitely needs to apologize, or else no one will be comfortable dealing with the Quinton family in the

future. It's just

needs to apologize, or the right thing to do."

Tm really worried now."

Alice and Lisa felt a bit embarrassed after hearing these words.

She pointed directly at Cherise, saying, "You..you're just using your position to bully others. Mary, please come

help your sister-in-law here"

After Alice said that, Cherise let out a dry laugh, "Ha, | always thought that people with power and influence were

educated and refined. But today | see they're just ordinary.

"1. Cherise, didn't cfrom a privileged family, but in terms of education, I'm a university professor with two

doctorates, surpassing many here.

"As for wealth, my company, Global Vision Group, is flourishing Money tois just a number. When it comes to

talent, my skills in traditional medicine can save lives in critical situations, "Unfortunately, when it comes to

judging people superficially, selites here are unrivaled."

After Cherise's words, many self-assured individuals had an epiphany.

Leaving Morris aside, Cherise herself was extraordinarily remarkable, but speople were quick to judge based

on background rather than merit.

Besides, there was nothing wrong with her background, and quite a few here also cfrom small towns.

The crowd began to murmur, "Apologize to Mrs. Chivers

"Please, Mrs. Quinton, apologize to Mrs. Chivers

"Apologize!"
