Chapter 302
ire nodded, the frown between her eyes indicating her anxiety.
Soon, from the outside passage, Lady Wilson''s slow walking pace sounded, paired with the sound
of her cane hitting the floor. Behind her were Christopher, Harold, and Wendy.
Harold, who was beaten up and arrested some time ago, had just been bailed out by Lady Wilson
from the police station. Thus, he was full of resentment and hatred as he red at Charlie.
Charlie, of course, couldn''t care less.
Today was his wife''s office''s opening ceremony, he didn''t want to have any conflict with these
hooligans. He would not jump on them as long as they kept themselves decent.
Wendy walked ahead and sneered, "ire, you didn''t even say hi to grandma, when did you
be so rude?"
ire replied tly, "I was kicked out of the Wilson family, so, in other words, we are not rted!" 6
"D*mn it!" Lady Wilson banged her cane to the ground hard and said furiously, "You are a
descendant of the Wilson family, and we are rted by blood. You were born as one of us, and
when you die, you''ll be our family''s ghost too!" 4
Charlie said sarcastically, "You''re a little doublestandard, aren''t you? When you kicked her out of
your family, you said that she was not part of your family, yet now, you im that she is one of you,
alive or dead? Isn''t that a little too contradicting?” 2
Harold grit his teeth and said, "Shut up, loser! You don’t have any say here!"
Charlie red back at him. "Did you not have enough punches the other day? Do you want me to
loosen you up a little?" 3
Harold cowardly shrank his neck inward like a turtle and stepped aside. 1
He had already tasted Charlie''s strength firsthand when he had tried to take over the vi, so he
now knew that he was not on par with Charlie regardless 0 f the number of people he had. Hence,
the best he could do was to remain silent. 2
ire pursed her lips and turned her gaze toward Lady Wilson, saying, "Sorry, you are not wee
at m y opening ceremony today. Please leave now." 5
"Opening ceremony?" Lady Wilson burst out in disdain. "ire, do you truly think that someone will
come to your door if you operate a small studio like this?" 2
Christopher giggled contemptuously and chimed in, "I heard that you even sent an invitation to
Emgrand Group, am I right? Did it ever cross your mind how the Emgrand Group would look at your
tiny little office?" 5
"That''s right," Lady Wilson interjected. "ire, after all, we are a family. It''s important to stay united
and in ord. You are my granddaughter, you have my blood in your body. How long do you want
to fight with me?" 1
She continued with her brainwashing. "Look at you, working in such a dpidated office by yourself
without any money or resources. Why don’t youe back to the Wilson Group? I''ll let you be the
director just like before, and you can work for me like you always did. I''ll give you the shares of the
company and even elect you as the sessor. What do you say?" 4
The Wilson family was not doing very well now.
The Emgrand Group had broken off their coboration with them and even cklisted them, and in
addition t o that, the White family had called off their engagement with Wendy. She couldn’t count
on Harold at all. 6
Lady Wilson''s only hope was to get ire back to herpany, and hopefully, it could break the
unfortunate chain and make a breakthrough in their business.
Maybe ire could even get the Emgrand Group’s contract back! That way, the otherpanies
woulde to them for more projects, and she could reverse their situation in no time. 1
Never did Lady Wilson expect that ire would simply shake her head and say calmly, "Thanks, but
n o thanks. I''m not interested, I just want to do my own
thing."
Christopher sneered. "ire, I suggest you have some self-consciousness. Don’t you see how
deste your office is at your opening ceremony? Did anyonee t o congratte you? Do you
honestly think you can make it work? I bet you''ll go bankrupt before you start!" 7

Charlie''s expression was full of disdain. "It''s none of your business! I can make the prominent
figures in Aurous Hille and congratte ire whenever I want!"
