Chapter 148 The Phoenix
Ang pushed Britney aside without paying attention to Scarlet’s anger. “Are you sure you are my legal
mother? Are you sure you want me to acknowledge you? Huh?” Ang gave Britney an icy re while
speaking in a chilly tone.
Britney rubbed the painful spot on her wrist. She was in too much pain to speak for a moment, but this
also gave her some time to clear her mind. When Ang was young, she was always treated as a
burden. As a child, she was either scolded, beaten, or used as freebor–food was only given as a
means of keeping her alive. Now that she’s sessful, and especially since the’s not my biological
child, she really isn’t obligated to do anything for me. Hore could I expect her toe back to me?
Britney though
Fanny was her biological child, and they were connected by blood. Fanny was someone who wouldn’t
be able to get rid of her. Moreover, the Kins Family clearly only cared about her biological child, so she
had to hold on tightly to her own flesh and blood!
After sorting it out, Britney straightened her back, snorted, and swept past the people of the Kins
Family. T almost got fooled by you guys! She is not my biological daughter. Don’t try to deceive me just
because I can’t find my biological daughter! If you don’t call my biological daughter over now, I will
make the whole Riverdon know that you are keeping my daughter away from me and bullying a country
bumpkin like
me.”

Ang rubbed her palms together as she looked at the scene before her eyes with a smile on her face.
This is more like it, she thought. Samuel was so angry that his chest heaved violently. His face was
burning, and he clenched his fists in preparation to smash Ang’s face. At this moment, Oliver rushed
out from aer before fiercely grabbing Samuels
arm and throwing him over his shoulder. Thud! Then, Oliver quickly twisted Samuel’s arm and pressed
it against his back.
Both the sound of bones cracking and Samuel’s screams filled the air simultaneously. Aside from
Ang, the Kins and Britney were all shocked by this sudden turn of events. Scarlet screamed and
was about to rush over, but James held her back. “Mom, she belongs to Jonathan now,” he whispered.
Scenes of the past reyed themselves as Samuel writhed in pain. Hatred suddenly bubbled in his
chest, along with a hint of regret. I should have… found a ce where no one was around, he thought.
Ang nced over at James and George, who were holding themselves back. A mocking smile
surfaced on her lips as she looked at Samuel. “You truly are the most brainless one in the Kins Family.”
“Ang!” Scarlet pointed at her angrily. “You’re bing more audacious! Just because you’ve
attached yourself to Jonathan, you think you’re soaring like a phoenix above all of us. You never know
when you might fall down!” Scarlet shouted.
As her words fell, another cold and indifferent voice spoke up. “Mydy can be audacious if she wants
to. As long as I support her, she won’t fall.” Jonathan was wheeled over by Simon, and Ang’s eyes lit
up when she saw him. “Jonathan, weren’t you busy? Why did you suddenlye?” she asked.
I’m done with my work. I came to pick you up. Jonathan’s tone changed into one that was gentler as he
took her hand into his. George couldn’t help but feel nervous when he saw the situation. He nced at
James, whose expression also showed a hint of uncase.
The father and son exchanged a nce before they both put on a smile and approached. Jonathan.
George bent down with a warm smile, “Mr. Lawson, my wife didn’t mean what she said just now. It was
all
a misunderstanding. She was upset that Ang married you without telling us. Fanny is engaged to
Christopher, and now Ang is married to you. Our families are really getting closer.”

Jonathan raised an eyebrow as he shifted his intimidating gaze to George. The look in Jonathan’s eyes
sent shivers down George’pme. “If I remember correctly. Ang has already been adopted by the
Donald Fanuby, so she has nothing to do with the Kins Family, right?”
jonathan’s gaze shifted back to see the calm look on Ang’s face, and a hint of a smile surfaced on
his hips. Is that correct. Ang
Yes.” Ang replied.
George’s smile froze, and he felt a wave of regret and frustration. How could Ang keep this from
them for so long, especially when she had been married to Jonathan for almost two weeks already?
Realizing that Ang had nned this all along, George felt a surge of anger.
Jonathan gently stroked her soft hand with his thumb as he looked at George with a rxed
expression. “I heard that thetest municipal project has already been offered to the Kins Family”
George paled when he came back to his senses. “Mr. Lawson…”
“Mr. Kins Jonathan interrupted him casually, his tone amused. “That project is quiterge. It’s not easy
toplete it. In order to thank the Kins Family for taking care of Ang, the Lawson Family has
helped you bear some of the burden. In the future, if there are simr challenges, the Lawson Family
will also be happy to assist.”
The new government project was the result of George and James efforts for nearly six months, and
they didn’t know how much money they had invested in it. However, if the Lawson Family wanted to
take it away, they would be able to do so with the snap of a finger. Moreover, the connections they had
painstakingly built in the city government would also be severed.
And Jonathan’s casual remark about the Lawson Family helping with simr challenges meant that the
Kins Family would never be able to grow in Riverdon. They wouldn’t have the chance to secure any
major contracts in the future. George was sweating profusely as he tried toe up with a response.
James‘ lips were tight, and his voice steady as he spoke. “Mr. Lawson, this is just a minor issue.
There’s no need to blow it out of proportion. Ang is my sister, and we were just joking around.” After
speaking. James looked at Ang as if saying. Hurry up and resolve this for me. Ang!
Ang wanted tough. Why is James acting all noble and haughty? Ang tilted her head and tucked
her hair behind her ear while pretending not to understand his message. James pursed his lips as the
color drained out of his face. Scarlet had also lost her momentum and rage at that point, but deep
down, she was still unhappy about the situation. It’s my right to discipline Ang! What right does
Jonathan have to interfere?! Even if Ang marries Jonathan, I’m still his mother–inw, and Samuel
is still his nephew. How can she treat her nephew like this?
But since her husband didn’t dare to speak up. Scarlet had no choice but to hold her anger in. The rage
that she suppressed within her chest was so intense that she felt like she was about to explode.
Jonathan slowly lowered his gaze to nce at Samuel, who was still lying on the ground. Samuel was
in too much pain to speak.
Although his expression was as cold as ice, there was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes. “I don’t like to
y around,” he hissed.
James‘ face darkened. He stood frozen in his spot, and he felt like there was a lump in his throat that
stopped him from speaking. Ang pursed her lips to form a scorn on her delicate face. Jonathan is
right. I have already been adopted by Uncle Donald’s family. James, even if you consider me your
sister, I’m

actually just your cousin.”

“It’s best for elders not to meddle in other people’s affairs,” Jonathan spoke calmly before looking at
Ang with a gentle smile on his face. “Are you tired? Let’s go back and have May make us something
to eat.” Ang smiled slightly. “Okay.” As she spoke, she naturally took the wheelchair from Simon
before pushing it and striding off with Jonathan.
George tried to contain his fear as he wiped his sweat and dragged James along with him. He wasn’t
ready to give up on going after them.
Simon shot him a cold nce as he extended his arm out. “You should know your limits, Mr. Sanders.”
All of a sudden, there was a crisp sound of bones breaking, followed by a muffled groan from Samuel.
