Chapter 1237 An
Uncultured Girl
J brought Vera to a newly opened cafe next to the W Marks Studio.
As soon as they sat down, Vera asked impatiently, ''Where did you hide Laney and the child?''"
Instead of answering her question, J responded firmly, "What do you n to do with Laney after
finding her? Will you arrange for another assistant to spy on her? Or are you nning on just taking
the child away?"
Vera leaned back on the chair and sneered, "I won''t do anything to her. It doesn''t matter if she
comes back or not as long as she returns my granddaughter to me."
To her, Laney was someone who had ruined their family. She wanted Laney to disappear forever,
but the child was part of the Harding family, so she had to be returned.
Upon hearing Vera''s heartless answer, J felt a strong sense of disgust.
Vera was apparently unaware of her faults and did not regard Laney as family. With a mother-inw
like her, it was no wonder why Laney was so determined to leave.
J furrowed her brows and said coldly, "If that''s the case, then there''s no point in having a
conversation. Even if I knew where Laney went, I wouldn''t tell you."
Vera''s face darkened, and she threatened, "Don''t think you can get away with everything just
because you have the White family and the Larson Group backing you up. Are you sure you want to
go against the Harding family for just a bodyguard?"
J snorted disdainfully and replied, "Mrs. Harding, do whatever you want. I''m ready to take you
on anytime. But I''m curious. How would Garrett or Mr. Harding react if they knew you were here to
make things difficult for me?"
"You!" Vera cried angrily, feeling at a loss for words.
Vera came to humiliate J without Garrett''s and Leo''s knowledge. If they were to find out, they
would probably ground her.
Just then, a waiter arrived with their coffee.
After expressing her gratitude to the waiter, J took a sip from her cup.
Vera gritted her teeth in anger as she watched J behaving so calmly.
Meanwhile, J felt a little pleased when she saw the frustration on Vera''s face from the corner of
her eye.
While J respected her elders, she couldn''t help but feelpelled to speak up for Laney, who
had endured too much injustice in the Harding family.
"What will it take for you to tell me where Laney is?" Vera asked impatiently.
J set down her coffee and answered coolly, "Mrs. Harding, what''s the rush? Let me guess.
Kailee must have told you toe to me, right?"
Vera''s heart skipped a beat. She did not expect J to guess that.
J could tell from Vera''s reaction that she had hit the nail on the head.
She shook her head disappointedly and exined, "I won''t tell you where Laney is because I don''t
want you to be further manipted by Kailee. That will only cause trouble for Laney and even ruin
her rtionship with Garrett."
Vera''s face flushed when she heard J''s reasoning.
What J had said was undeniable.

However, she was a haughty upper-ss socialite. Being silenced by a younger person for the first
time left Vera feeling very angry.
Thinking about J''s life before she was brought back to the White family, Vera couldn''t help
mocking, "How dare you talk to me like that? You''re just an uncultured girl with no idea how
important an heir is to a family."
J felt her anger rise as Vera attacked her past. She couldn''t help but retort, "Despite your noble
upbringing, how could you be so easily manipted by others? Not only have you driven your
daughter -inw away, but now you can''t even see your granddaughter."
J''s words infuriated Vera, causing her face to turn livid in anger.
She red harshly at J and grumbled, "Is this how you were taught to speak to elders in the
White family? It seems that I have to get Johanna to discipline you properly!"
However, before Vera could say anything else, a voice came from behind.
"My daughter has always been perfect. She doesn''t need you to tell her what to do, Mrs. Harding."
