Chapter 670


    Cordelia did not stop there. Since she had offended Hannah, she might as well go all the way. She


    looked at Janine and said softly, “Mom, I think this family doesn’t seem to wee me very much…


    Rather than being gossiped about here, I’ll just go back to my parents!” Janine was inwardly in glee.


    When did her daughter-inw pick up her skill of backing down for an attack? In that case, she must


    not waste her effort! The mother and daughter-inw exchanged a look and immediately understood


    the next scene of the show. Before Janine could get herself into it, though, a deep voice rang. “Who’s


    going back to her parents?” Cordelia jolted. It went silent instantly as a sense of pressure weighed


    down on them. The crowd automatically parted to two sides to make a path for the Baker patriarch,


    Franklin Baker. His hair was white, and he wore a gray checkered suit with a fedora. He was old, but


    the confidence and presence hemanded could still intimidate everyone. Cordelia was anxious and


    lowered her eyes. Hannah scurried forward. She was fretting about how she would turn the tables


    around and here came the old man! “Ah, dad!” She greeted him warmly. “Don’t me Cordelia! She’s


    young and ignorant, wanting to go back to her parents over something small. I’ve been there, I


    understand! “We’re throwing Janine a wee back party today. Don’t get mad, dad!” Janine red at


    her. How dare Hannah frame her!? She was going to say something when Franklin asked with a smile,


    “Huh, do I look angry?” Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books

    “And when did I say I’m ming our Cordelia? Hmm?” Cordelia looked up to meet the friendly gaze of


    Zephyr’s maternal grandfather. The old man did not me her. Instead, he stood before her with a


    straightened back and coughed. He scanned the crowd and paused his gaze on Hannah.

    “You’re really something to make my granddaughter-inw ask to go home!” Hannah turned pale and


    nearly lost her footing. Ava hurried over, pulling Noah along, but Franklin shot them a sharp look. “One


    word from you, Noah, and I’ll chase this mother and daughter out of the Bakers!” Noah stammered and


    sweated. Ava held Hannah’s arm. Both of them shrank back into themselves, not daring to lift up their


    heads. Franklin’s presence wasmanding. “Do you think I’m deaf and blind because I’ve gotten


    old? I heard everything you said just now! “Hannah Johnson, do you think I’d tolerate you till now if it


    weren’t for Noah!? Not only aren’t you grateful, but you’re even bullying my granddaughter-inw now!


    “What? Are you nning to drive Cordelia back to her parents, break her and Zephyr up, then kick me


    out!?” “Dad…” Hannah shook in fear that even her tone changed. “Dad, what are you talking about? I


    wouldn’t dare—” “Heh! What wouldn’t you dare?” Franklin was sharp. “You wouldn’t dare try anything


    with me, but you dare to goad my son and make him kick up a fuss and ask money from his family over


    and over again!” Hannah’s eyes turned red. It was like she was thrown into an ice pit as she felt chilled


    to the core. Ava did not even dare make a sound. “That’s right, I’m favoring my daughter and her son.


    So what? My money and mypany, I give them to whoever I want!” Franklin snorted. “Not only am I


    favoring them, but I’m also biased toward my granddaughter-inw and the baby in her womb! “Anyone


    whoys a finger on them is against me!” Franklin’s cane hit the ground loudly while the people


    surrounding him listened with bated breaths lest they were caught in his rage.
