Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 780 Dirty Touch

On the other hand, Onyx was furious when he witnessed what was going on. What’re you doing, my daughter?! You’re embarrassing the White Family. Do you know that?!

“Should we step in and say something, dear?” Lyra expressed her concern for Adelpha’s reputation.

“What are we supposed to say to her? She is going to take care of her own mess. I’m not going to waste my time and energy cleaning her mess for her.” Onyx glared at Elise and hid in the corner, tired of observing his daughter’s action any further.

Elise was helpless at that moment, but deep down, she knew Anastasia was a lady who was obsessed with relationships. “Grandpa.” Elise reluctantly asked Benjamin for help. “Do something.”

“I could help you, but what if you turn your back on me like you did the last time after that?” Benjamin purposely gave Elise a hard time.

“I guarantee I won’t.” Although Elise could deny all accusations that Edmond threw at her, she believed the strained relationship between ‘Anastasia’ and Benjamin was no secret among their social circles. After all, the only way to keep herself out of trouble is to be backed by Benjamin.

“Hmph!” Benjamin grunted coldly and said, “I don’t give two cents about your guarantee!” Despite his rejection, he acted against his harsh attitude and took a step forward, behaving like an intimidating boxer who was stepping into the ring. “Ladies and gentlemen, today is my 70th birthday, but this man seems to be ruining the occasion with an unidentified voice recording that he was using to frame my granddaughter for having fallen in love with him. I may not know a lot of people, but I’m sure everyone here is somewhat influential and well-known. Therefore, I’m sure any one of your sons would probably make a better match with my granddaughter than this young man would. For that, I’d say this young man is making a fool out of my granddaughter and the Joslin Family, as well as everyone else here. Don’t you find this funny, ladies and gentlemen?” Benjamin managed to depict Edmond as a clown with his subtle and eloquent use of words.

“Oh, come on. Does this guy know who Anastasia is? He needs to see the truth by looking at himself in the mirror.”

“That’s outrageous. I’m pretty sure this guy must have gone mental!”

“If even a lousy guy like him can marry into a rich family, I suppose we’re going to have to keep a close eye on our daughters in the future so that those bootlickers don’t get too close with us.”

“Don’t let someone like him continue to ruin your occasion, Mr. Joslin. Show him the way out of this place. We’re better off without him here.”

Since it was Benjamin’s birthday celebration, it was not surprising that no one sided with Edmond as they all thought the man was messing around.

to lighten up a little as he still didn’t crack a smile. When he approached Elise and Benjamin, they somehow didn’t seem to be happy with each other’s presence. “Mr. Joslin, may you live a long life full of prosperity and happiness.” Lyra had her ancient painting in her hands, ready to present it to the old man.
