Chapter 1229

Chapter 1229

Such a noble man, how could he possibly be with other women.

"Can you stop being a pain in my ass?"

Ava rubbed her temples. None of the people around her were making her happy. Becky grabbed Ava's arm and cooed, "Mom, I'm just going to take a look, I promise I won't cause any trouble! I can even help you watch over my cousin...

"Enough, cut it out!"

Ava, looking irritated, shook off Becky's hand and walked away. Becky stomped her foot in frustration, then with a glint in her eyes, pulled out her phone and booked the next flight to P City.

Presley rarely surfed the internet, so he was completely oblivious to Chloe's online news today.

Elizabeth, Rose, and Yulia hadn't even reached home, and they had already seen the news about Chloe. The video and photos of her hitting Rhys were going viral.

Yulia and Rose couldn't help but laugh out loud at the sight of Chloe suddenly kicking Rhys down the steps at the entrance of Starlight International. They kept replaying the scene, laughing every time they watched it.

"It's hilarious! Chloe normally uses her brain to solve problems, so what on earth did Rhys do to make her hit him like that?" Rose laughed so hard she could hardly breathe.

In all these years, apart from dealing with the Summers family, Rose had never seen Chloe actually hit anyone.

Especially in front of so many journalists.

Rhys was utterly humiliated!

However, Rose stroked her chin, "I'm really curious, what did Rhys say? What made Chloe so mad?"

Yulia was also curious, "We don't know, we'll ask her when we get back"

"Don't mention this when we get back, okay? Otherwise, Presley will get mad!"

As the Harper family's mansion came into view, Elizabeth's expression became serious. They both nodded, and Elizabeth made a "shush" gesture to Anya. As soon as the car stopped, Elizabeth carried Anya out of the car.

But as soon as they entered the living room, they heard the TV broadcasting the news of Chloe and Rhys that they had just seen. Sitting on the sofa were Presley, Robin, Grace, and Wendy.

"Ms. Chloe is so brave! She dares to hit the viscount!" Grace said mockingly, causing Presley to change his expression.

"As long as it's someone who deserves to be hit, why wouldn't she dare to?" Elizabeth's calm voice came from behind.

Grace's face stiffened. "You're back?"

"Who turned on the TV?" Elizabeth ignored Grace and asked Addie coldly.

Addie lowered her head and said, "Mr. Presley wanted to watch TV, so I turned it on"

Elizabeth sneered, "And it happened to show this?"

Addie remained calm. "I'm old, I'm not very good at Operating it!"

“Are you saying that because you're old, you're not able to do your job as a servant properly? Shouldn't you resign for the sake of Presley's health?"

Addie turned pale. “I can still take care of Mr. Presley...

"But I don't trust you!"

She walked away as if the matter had been settled, leaving Addie in a state of panic.

“Are you trying to gradually strip me of my power in this house?" Presley spoke softly, his voice full of authority.

Addie was delighted and moved to stand beside Presley.

This clearly meant that she was Presley's servant, and naturally, she had Presley's support. Elizabeth had no authority to arrange Addie’s tasks.

"You are the master of the Harper family, and all the power is in your hands. Even if I wanted to gradually strip you of your power, I wouldn't be able to do it by the time I die. My life is good, i just want to see my grandchildren now, and I have no interest in taking anything from the Harper family"

Presley was silent for a moment. “...If you have no interest in taking anything from the Harper family, what about Royce? Since you are a member of the Harper family, don't pretend to be so innocent."

Elizabeth's eyes were cold. "Presley, I am only looking forward to the birth of my grandchildren now and don't want to argue with you too much. If I have no right to handle the affairs of this house, especially the trivial matters, then I won't handle them. You can manage them if you want. But please don't manage me, or my son and his wife!"

“Then what should I manage?"

"Whatever." Elizabeth's voice was full of determination. She didn't understand why Presley had changed his attitude in just a few hours. She glanced at Grace and Wendy, and her heart filled with anger. As the mistress of the Harper family, she felt so wronged! Presley didn't give her any respect in front of these people. "Aren't you leaving?"

Grace laughed, "Don't like us much?"

Elizabeth forced a smile. "Whether I like you or not is not important. What's important is whether Presley likes you.

So what's going on? Has Presley made a decision? Is he planning to drive us alt out of the Harper family?"

Robin suddenly said, "You're being too extreme. We're all family, why do you have to say such drastic things?"

“Who and who are family?" Elizabeth turned her gaze to Robin. "Who do you think I should be family with? I'm beginning to think that the people of the Alonso family are really shameless! How shameless can they be to keep clinging on to someone else's home?"

Wendy's face instantly crumpled. "Mrs. Harper, don't say that... we... came specifically to keep Grandpa Presley company."

Elizabeth, Rose, and Yulia were all left speechless, puzzled, and even a little nauseated. So she was saying she was leaving, but just spending the night somewhere else and coming back the next day? Indeed, if a person had no shame, they would find countless ways to be shameless.

Chloe arrived at the office, and before she knew it, she had been busy for quite a while. By the time she returned home, it was already dark outside. But to her surprise, the two people who were

supposed to leave were still there.

Her eyebrows twitched slightly, her gaze swept over Elizabeth who was sitting silently with a cold face, and she let out a soft laugh.

"The superstar's back.’ Grace said with a smile.

"Ms. Chloe.’' Wendy also obediently called out.
