From Jackson Family of San Carlos, the successor who will inherit the family business soon — Morris Jackson!
Also, a big shot capable of shaking the entire stock market with just a wave of his hand!
Iris Mitchell sneered, "Lyra Smith, why would you mention Mr. Jackson all of a sudden? You think you can aim for someone like him? Have you weighed your worth? Do you believe Mr. Jackson would set his eyes on a faded woman like you?!"
'Slap!'
Just as the last syllable dropped.
A crisp slap echoed.
Iris Mitchell, covering her slapped cheek, looked at Kaitlyn Lan with disbelief, "Aunt, you actually slapped me?"
Kaitlyn Lan, flicking her wrist, face turning sour, "How dare you insult my daughter, calling her a wane and dejected woman in my presence? If I didn't slap you, who would I slap?"
"Kaitlyn Lan!!!" Emily Lan shouted in rage, shocked at first, but regaining her composure to protect her daughter, "On what ground did you slap my daughter!"
"If you can't discipline your own daughter, is there a problem with me, her aunt, disciplining her in your stead?" Kaitlyn Lan's face showed no grace or poise of a lady, her anger was terrifying.
Even Emily Lan didn't dare to retort.
Kaitlyn Lan continued, "No matter how my daughter behaves, she's mine to discipline. Iris Mitchell, as her older sister, you didn't advise your sister positively and instead insulted her. Is this the way the Mitchells educate their children?"
"Woo woo woo woo woo..." Iris Mitchell, terrified by Kaitlyn Lan's discrimination and the painful slap from Kaitlyn Lan, didn't dare to challenge Kaitlyn Lan and could only cry bitterly.
Emily Lan was beside herself with anger. "Don't get cocky, Kaitlyn Lan!"
"Who's being cocky? You rushed into my house, insulted my daughter. Is it my place to plead at your mercy?"
"..."
"Whimpering."
"What are you crying for! It's embarrassing to cry in my house!" Kaitlyn Lan said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this.
Iris Mitchell even dared not cry, she looked at Kaitlyn Lan with teary eyes, trembling a bit.
Lyra Smith, hiding behind Kaitlyn Lan, slowly looked up and caught the eye of Iris Mitchell crying bitterly across from her.
Before Iris Mitchell could speak, Kaitlyn Lan's sudden demand, "Apologize to your sister right now!" choked off her words.
She stared at Kaitlyn Lan in shock, "Aunt, I know I shouldn't have said those words just now, and I won't say them again. But why should I apologize to Lyra Smith?"
Kaitlyn Lan snorted, "You won't apologize? Fine, then I'll repeat your words about Lyra Smith, word for word, and I won't have to apologize, how about that?"
Iris Mitchell: "..."
Iris Mitchell came to sniff out the situation. Despite Lyra Smith's relaxed exterior, deep inside she must be wracked with regret for being caught this morning, but that was just her bad luck, and Iris Mitchell happened to be there to see it.
In order to smooth it over, she even claimed that the man she was with was Erwin Jackson!
However, Erwin Jackson is still in H Country, probably won't be back until tonight.
Earlier, at the hotel, Iris Mitchell had doubts about Lyra Smith's slip-up. Thankfully, Iris was clever and checked the hotel's check-in records and Erwin Jackson's Weibo to find out he was attending an event in H Country.
Lyra Smith couldn't stand loneliness and messed around with a random man, even leaving traces. Once her scandal goes public, let's see how she'll face the world!!
Despite being slapped and humiliated, Iris Mitchell felt a sense of satisfaction as she anticipated that the scandal of the Smith Family would soon be the talk of the Select Society of Capital City. Today's insults would then seem insignificant.
"Sor… ry." Iris Mitchell apologized to Lyra Smith.
Lyra Smith thought to herself, her mother always cleaned up her messes!
"Alright, alright, let's call it a day this time. Don't throw insults around next time, see? You got slapped too." Lyra Smith, with a look of righteousness, reminded her.
Iris Mitchell, covering her burning cheeks, said, "Mom, let's go."
Compared to Kaitlyn Lan, Emily Lan was not as firm. Moreover, considering the flourishing Smith family, she decided to be patient for now. As her daughter had said, the good days of the Smith family are coming to an end soon.
After Emily Lan left with her daughter.
Kaitlyn Lan turned around and saw Lyra Smith sneaking away, she roared, "Stay right there!"
Lyra Smith froze on the spot.
Kaitlyn Lan walked over, after looking her up and down, asked in a serious tone, "What did you do that enabled this mother-daughter duo to find a loophole?"
Lyra Smith, scratching her head, said, "I explained everything when I came back."
Kaitlyn Lan thought about Lyra Smith's words, she had provoked Morris Jackson.
"You're really outstanding!"
"I won't dare... Mom... I was wrong..."
Kaitlyn Lan saw her daughter apologize and her heart softened, "Provoking a Morris Jackson wouldn't scare you like this. What exactly did you do to irritate him? Tell me so your dad and I can work out a solution for you tonight."
Lyra Smith: I upset his brother!
