Chapter 1123
Her words changed Harry''s expression.
After being chided by Rose, Grayson, who did not dare to open his mouth, became pale. Immediately,
he looked at her with panic in his eyes.
We''re finished. These two old women actually know how Lte feels about Toby!
Although he was panicking, Harry was still someone that had lived a long and experienced life. As
such, he quickly calmed down and clenched his fist before squeezing out a smile. "You jest, Mary. How
can I have such thoughts?"
"Enough. Since we''ve reached this stage, it''s pointless to keep pretending. We''ve known what that
granddaughter of yours feels about Young Master Toby for a long time now. I mean, how can we not,
seeing that your granddaughter practically glued her eyes to our young master everytime she sees
him? Even the blind could tell." Mary rolled her eyes discriminately. "Besides, you, Mr. Lore, are famous
for doting on your granddaughter, as you will do your best to satisfy her wants and needs. From this,
anyone can tell that you''d naturally support your granddaughter when she loves Young Master Toby so
much. Yet, since our young master and Miss Reed are together, you wanted to rile Madam up, using
her to break them apart. If that happened, wouldn''t your granddaughter stand a chance to get what she
wished for?"
Although the father and son duo tried to speak, they found themselves unable to rebuke her.
They thought they merely hit the bullseye based on their guesses. Yet, they never predicted that they
actually knew Lte was in love with Toby for such a long time.
If so, that meant whatever he uttered in front of thedies earlier was as ridiculous as one could be.
Suddenly, Harry felt a sense of shame and regret as he thought he was acting too rash earlier.
It was just as what Rose had mentioned. Their aim ining here was to persuade her so she could
put in a few words on behalf of the Lore Family. The best tactic would be to sessfully persuade Toby
and Sonia.
What it also meant was that the more urgent ordeal would be to smooth over the issues with Toby first.
As for breaking up Toby and Sonia, they were in no hurry to achieve that.
Yet, he could not help but smear Sonia when he was talking, thinking that if Rose could persuade Toby
into breaking up with her, would that not be perfect? What he did not foresee, however, was that Sonia
actually mattered a lot to Rose.
The more important thing was that Rose knew a long time ago that Lte fancied Toby, so not only
did his words expose his intentions, he also left a very bad impression on Rose.
I really f*cked up this time.
Just as Harry was regretting his actions, Rose took the cane handed over by Mary and said, "Also, did
you really think that I didn''t know what happened online?"
What?
Harry and Grayson fell into shock once again.
Subsequently, Harry met with the sneering gaze of Rose. "I only pretended to not know, as I wanted to
hear what you were going to say, you old fool. What did I hear? You, twisting the truth. I know about the
whole incident very well. Don''t think that I''m just some old woman staying in her home all day. I have a
very well-established informationwork. That granddaughter of yours was ndering Sonny online.
She didn''t want to stand up for Toby. It was because she fancied him and wanted Toby to break up with
Sonny, so she framed her and made it seem like she cheated on him, all that just to be with Toby. And
you, you old fool, you actually twisted it so it looks like she was trying to stand up for him. What a joke!"
"Not only is this ironic, he''s treating us as fools, Madam." Mary helped Rose along while looking at
Harry with a disdainful gaze.
With a pale and awful expression, Harry looked at them hopelessly. "You two knew, yet you pretended
not to. Is it all just to see me make a fool out of myself?"
Rose sneered, "See you make a fool out of yourself? I''m not that bored. I only wanted to see if you
were honest. If you had been sincere right from the start, I might still have valued you higher, seeing
that you came in person to make amends. But, you lied, and you even twisted the facts, treating us like
fools. So, why should I care about what you think? Go back. I won''t agree to your request and
persuade them to forgive you. I still have my conscience left."
"That''s right." Mary rolled her eyes. "Besides, not even bringing a gift along when requesting a favor?
This is how you do things? I think taking advantage is more apt for what you''re doing. You all are just
snakes in disguise. The granddaughter wants to be a mistress while the grandfather not only did not
chide her, he even supported this mess, like some pimp trying to find rich customers for her. What a
disgusting family. We wish that the young master would quickly cut ties with your family. If we keep
getting ourselves involved in your family''s matters, the young master might even be influenced
negatively by you all sooner orter."
"Y-You..Harry stood up and pointed at Mary while trembling out of anger.
Mary then snorted. "Cat got your tongue? Servants, see our guests off!"
"Understood." The servants standing by the entrance of the living room heard Mary''s order and walked
over immediately before gesturing to the Lore Family to leave with them.
Naturally, Harry was not willing to leave just like that, but he also dared not stay there shamelessly.
After all, he still wanted to maintain the rtionship with Toby and not push him away even further.
Despite his reluctance, he could only leave with Grayson. Soon, only Mary and Rose were left in the
living room.
Mary then smoothed out the wrinkles on Rose''s coat before stating unhappily, "These two thick-skinned
scums finally left. Young Master Toby was also quite unfortunate to have found such a teacher."
"It''s all because the teacher Toby was supposed to learn from passed away unexpectedly the day
before it got officialized. Left with no choice, we could only ask if that old man wanted to teach him. If
not for thepany''s urgency for Toby to seed in the position hurriedly, how could that old fool get
the position if Toby had more time for other options?" said Rose while wearing her coat.
Mary helped her along to the entrance of the living room. "No matter what, the young master is still
somewhat indebted to that old man. Still, after so many years of Young Master Toby shielding the Lore
Family, he has repaid his debts. It''s also a good thing to cut ties following this incident."

"It is. We have his granddaughter to thank for this," Rose remarked.
Laughing, Mary added, "True, but Miss Reed has indeed suffered through this."
"Prepare some gifts and send them to Sonny tomorrow. Tell her to not think too much into this and say
that the granddaughter of Harry''s has nothing to do with Toby, that they aren''t close at all," Rose
ordered.
Nodding, Mary replied, "Understood. I will prepare them, but I don''t think that Miss Reed will worry
herself too much over this, since I''m sure that the young master would have exined everything to
her."
"It''s up to Toby how he resolves that issue. As her senior, we should show our support as well to boost
Sonny''s confidence in that he did not lie to her."
"That makes sense. I''ll send someone over with the gifts tomorrow morning."
"Good," Rose affirmed.
