Mr. CEO's Substitute Bride
Chapter 1590 - 1580: As Far as the Eye Can See—Who Gave You the Face
Lorelei Howard was panting heavily, her son—someone she normally wouldn’t let lift a finger—was disfigured by Eva Hayes, which would make any mother feel heartache.
Bodhi Lancaster glared unhappily at his unreasonable sister-in-law. If it weren’t for the old man and his son citing family rules, he would surely argue with this unreasonable shrew.
"People like you are better off dead!" Aurora Lancaster muttered disdainfully, though her voice didn’t dare to be too loud.
On the main seat, Daxton Lancaster’s eyes revealed a hint of a smile, like the curve at the corner of his lips, exuding a sense of mockery.
"Since Second Mom remembers that your second branch has already set up their own household, why bother coming to our main branch to sponge off!"
The first line Daxton delivered was derisive, but as he continued, his eyes suddenly grew sharp, the curve of his lips vanished, and his gaze turned icy.
Once finished, without giving Eva Hayes a chance to retort, he continued, "I, Daxton Lancaster, am generous, not a fool, and I certainly won’t feed a pack of ungrateful wolves!"
After Daxton finished speaking, the Lancaster family all looked displeased.
Because the meaning Daxton wanted to convey was clear: we won’t be covering the living expenses of your second branch anymore.
"Who are you calling ungrateful wolves?" Eva Hayes shouted angrily.
She glared at Daxton with hostility, as if she’d pounce on him and fight if he said it was about her family.
"Heh," Daxton let out a cold laugh and slowly squinted his eyes, asking leisurely.
"Why? Did I say something wrong? Isn’t your second branch a pack of ungrateful wolves?"
At this point, Joseph Lancaster narrowed his eyes once more and suddenly opened them wide, his voice becoming stern again, pointing at the Lancaster family resolutely.
"Your entire family, eating my food, living in my house, while bullying my wife and brother.
Eva Hayes, who gave you the guts, who backed you, to dare challenge my boundaries!"
The Lancaster family’s expressions grew even more unpleasant as Daxton called Eva Hayes out by name, clearly intent on tearing down all pretenses.
It’s always said ignorance is fearless, as Eva Hayes still failed to recognize Daxton was about to enforce family rules, and defiantly continued to mock loudly.
"Humph! Daxton Lancaster, who do you think you are? When we hadn’t branched out, you were like the sky; now we have our own factories and businesses, we no longer rely on you for survival, what aura are you trying to put on in front of us?
Let me tell you, we regard you as Family Head only if we see you as a person. If not, you’re nothing but a fart to us!"
After saying that, Eva Hayes spat at Daxton.
Violet Zimmerman frowned in surprise, encountering such an unreasonable and uncouth woman speaking of her nephew in such a manner was eye-opening.
"Sigh!" Bodhi Lancaster angrily turned his face to the side, and Lorelei Howard did the same, fuming at Eva Hayes.
The Lancaster family’s faces flashed with smugness; against Daxton, a self-important man, it needed a woman like Eva Hayes, unreasonable and boorish, to handle him—it’s impossible to reason when a wise man faces a fool!
"You uncultured woman, who are you calling a fart?" Joseph Lancaster stretched his neck, glaring at Eva Hayes furiously, like he was about to strangle her at any moment.
His brother held a godlike status in his heart—the Family Head of the Lancasters, who single-handedly supported the entire Lancaster family.
"Hey, you little brat, how dare you call me uncultured," Eva Hayes rolled up her sleeves and raised her hand to slap Joseph Lancaster.
