Spoiled by the Silver Fox

Rebecca seethed with anger inside, but her face was adorned with a polite smile as she spoke, "I'm flattered that you still remembers me. But I'm curious, what urgent matter required my presence here today?" Jaxon, seeing her direct approach, replied candidly, "I heard this little miss is Jeffrey's offspring."

Rebecca's face turned stone-cold in an instant.

"What exactly are you trying to say, sir?"

"Oh, nothing much. Just making an introduction. This is my adopted granddaughter."

A twitch flickered at the corner of Rebecca's mouth. "Did Sebastian ask you to recognize her?"

"No, took a fancy to her myself and decided to make it official."

"And then? What are you getting at, sir?"

"Well, Miss Snider, since you're a straight shooter, I'll lay it out plain. It's rather harsh to deal with such a young kid so ruthlessly, don't you think? From now on, she's under the Ingram family's protection.

If you still harbor any ill intentions towards her, you'd be openly challenging the Ingrams. So, do you represent the Perez family in picking a fight with us, or is it just the Sniders?

If it's the Perez family, it might be a bit more complicated. I doubt they'd be pleased, given the girl's also their kin.

But if it's just the Sniders, Well, I don't need to remind you of your family's current standing, do I?"

"Are you trying to push me too far? My personal affairs are none of your business!"

"Personal affairs? When Sebastian brought Emily here for my protection, how could I let him down? He's my only useful grandson, and I'm counting on him for my retirement. Whatever he entrusts to me, I take it seriously." "So you're saying, you're taking charge here?"

"That's right, I am! Or maybe you, Miss Snider, dare to cross me?"

"Heh. I wouldn't dream of it. Since that's the case, I've lost my taste for tea. I'll take my leave now."

With that, Rebecca turned on her heel, her face a mask of ice, and made to leave.

Jaxon made no move to stop her; he had said all that needed to be said.

However, the pretty little girl sitting on his lap suddenly shouted, "You're not worthy of Jeffrey, and you're certainly not worthy of the Sullivan family's protection!"

Rebecca whipped around, her gaze laced with venom, and swept over the girl.

But this wasn't her turf, and she couldn't lash out.

She took note, though.

Did she ever care for Jeffrey or the Sullivans?

To her, nearly all men were worthless.

Except for her brother and her father, the rest were trash!

And Sebastian, the one decent man, always had to be a pain and oppose her!

Did no one understand why she needed Ashley to suffer, why that bastard child needed to die?

But who could grasp the depth of her hatred!

Jeffrey had ruined her life. She

He had always looked down on her and the child she bore.

Well then, everything he cared about was going to suffer.

Better they all die!

Even if Jeffrey lived, he deserved nothing more than living as a walking corpse!

No one was going to have it easy!

In the Ingram family's garden, Sebastian was approaching, toying with a silver little fox in his hands.

He bumped into Rebecca, who was storming towards the exit.
