Chapter 56 Misjudging Milly

Jordan entered the room, tossed his briefcase onto the sofa, and surveyed the chaotic living room. He was furious. “What are you all staring at? Come over and clean up this mess.”

Upon hearing his words, the servants, standing nervously on the side, finally approached and quickly tidied up the chaotic living room.

“Both of you, come over here and stand properly. Now, what exactly happened? Why on earth were you fighting?” Jordan loosened his tie, his face dark as he looked at the two of them.

Matthew snorted coldly and remained silent.

On the other hand, Anthony didn’t hold back. He began complaining. “Jordan, you don’t know how outrageous Matthew is. He threw Milly’s things out and said he didn’t recognise her as his sister. He even claimed that if Milly is here, then he doesn’t belong, Jordan, do you think he deserves a beating or not?”

Anthony’s shamelessness almost amused Matthew, “Stop exaggerating. I never said anything like that.”

Anthony began rolling up his sleeves, and it looked like he was about to explode again. “Do you dare say you didn’t claim you only have Stephanie as a sister? Do you dare say you didn’t throw Milly’s things out?”

“Yes, but…” Matthew tried to explain, only to realise that those words did seem to have come from him.

But he didn’t mean anything with those words at the time. How did they get twisted when they came out of Anthony’s mouth?

It was hard to pinpoint what was wrong, but something just felt off.

Seeing Matthew’s hesitant response, Anthony seized the opportunity and continued to add fuel to the fire. Jordan, he admitted it. Hurry up and teach him a lesson!”

Matthew became anxious. “I didn’t do that. It was Milly who bullied Stephanie first. I didn’t really mean. not to recognise her. I just wanted to give her a little lesson.”

“You still dare to deny it!”

Seeing that the tension between the two was about to escalate again, Jordan, piecing together the situation from their words, sternly reprimanded, “That’s enough!”

Upon seeing Jordan angry, the two fell silent immediately.

Jordan’s face darkened as he looked at the items in the box that had been thrown out. Looking at Matthew, he took a deep breath. He spoke with an unquestionable and firm tone, “Matthew, come over and apologise to Milly!”

Matthew widened his eyes, momentarily taken aback. “Jordan, why should I? She bullied Stephanie!*
