"Mr. Edward, don't blame grandma. This is clearly your fault. She did nothing wrong by criticizing you. I'll call mom and tell her that you're having an affair with another woman!" Justin shouted angrily, panting with rage and glaring at Edward like he had committed a heinous crime. He would not let Edward go this time.
Coco gazed at Cynthia in wonder. She was surprised at her youth and beauty. When she heard Edward call her "mom, " she thought she had misheard. But when the aggressive little boy called the woman "grandma, " she was startled. Who would think that such a charming and enchanting noblewoman was old enough to be a grandmother?
"You brat, what did I do? Am I naked right now? I didn't do anything. Unless you think that the woman in front of you is more attractive than your mother." Edward was eager to defend himself. He was careless to say such improper things to a child.
"It seems you're right. But why does this aunt wear so little clothes and look so sloppy? Does she think that her clothes are too tight and burdensome, that she feels the need to take some off?" In Justin's eyes, every woman who tried to seduce Edward was an old and ugly aunt. Although the woman in front of him looked a little pretty, she wasn't as beautiful as his mother.
Coco felt embarrassed at Justin and Cynthia's intrusion. Though she quickly pulled up her clothes, they still mocked her to her face. How could she bear the humiliation? Her face paled in an instant and her body trembled with fury.
"Oh! I don't think it's because her clothes are too tight. Maybe she has a tendency of exhibitionism." Cynthia sided with her family. Although she was a little surprised to hear Justin's vulgar words that weren't appropriate for his age, she understood him. This was not the time for good manners. Caring too much was exhausting.
"You... You're bullying me too much!" Coco growled. It's true that Coco took off her clothes by herself, but they were treating her as if she was invisible. She became angry from the embarrassment.
"Bullying? I don't think so. Grandma, are you bullying her? We never bully people, only foxes." Anything that harmed his mother's interests was unforgivable. It wasn't their fault to treat the strange woman this way. If she hadn't coveted something that didn't belong to her, she wouldn't have humiliated herself like this.
"Justin, stop it. Coco, get out! The news about the contract's termination has been released to the public, we can't take it back. The FX International Group's decision is final. Behave yourself and leave." Edward knew that Justin was more mature than his age. But he didn't agree with Justin's behavior of arguing his way through everything. This would restrict his further development in the business world when he grew up.
Coco glared at them before she rushed out, covering her face with her hands in shame. She had never felt so humiliated in her life. She had heard about Edward's bastard son Justin, but she didn't expect him to be so vicious. He didn't behave like an innocent boy, and she was not that stubborn, so she left to spare herself from further humiliation.
"Why are you here?" Edward watched Coco leave as he slowly sat down. He looked expectantly at Justin and Cynthia.
"We come to have lunch with you! Let's go, dad! Grandpa is waiting in the car." Justin was very smart. He knew that he had upset Edward, so he mentioned his grandfather to reduce the tension between them. Despite his cleverness, he missed the important point that Edward would never listen when it came to Jonathan.
"Let him wait! I have work to finish." Knowing that Jonathan was also present made Edward more resistant. He acted like a child who went against his unaffectionate father. Sometimes, men were more ruthless than woman, and Edward was this type of man. He was well past the age of indulging himself with his father's affections. But because he never felt his father's love, he did everything to garner his attention and this was his way of doing it.
Dad, how could you have time to flirt with a woman in your office but not have the time to finish your work? I'm hungry! Can't you work after we eat?" Justin didn't know Edward's thoughts. He was a foodie. When he heard that they would go out and eat, his eyes sparkled with anticipation. He couldn't wait to eat his favorite dishes.
Edward felt speechless at his son's love for delicious food. Thinking that he was a handsome and graceful nobleman, he wondered why he had a son like Justin who would lose himself when it came to food.
Eddie, let's go! If we stay too long, your father will come up." She didn't know what was going on between Edward and Jonathan. They were both being stubborn and arrogant. They were father and son, but why did they act like enemies? Jonathan was reluctant to come up, and Edward was reluctant to go down. She felt caught in the middle, and she looked disagreeable if she didn't take sides.
"Haha!" Justin laughed gleefully when his grandmother called Edward Eddie. Eddie sounded very amusing. And it perfectly matched Edward's childish behaviour.
Mom, don't call me by that disgusting name. Edward hated it when Cynthia called him that. He was an adult now. Didn't she find it inappropriate to use such a nickname for him?
Disgusting? I don't think so! Justin, what do you think? Okay, she was definitely doing it on purpose. How could he not take his father seriously? Although he was his son, she felt it necessary to punish him, or he would get too cocky and forget who he was.
It's not disgusting. I think it is a good name for dad. Justin held his laughter. He didn't expect his young and beautiful grandmother to be so funny. Since he like her a lot, he decided to echo his grandma and ignore Edward completely.
