Ex Cried as I Wed a Tycoon

Chapter 410

Mitchell was seething with anger, but with Mr. and Mrs. Ryan standing right there, he had no choice but to swallow his words.

Just you wait, he thought to himself. The moment Mr. and Mrs. Ryan leave, Effie is going to pay for this.

It wasn't long before an airline attendant came over to let them know that Mr. and Mrs. Ryan's flight was boarding.

The Ryans said their goodbyes to Effie, clearly reluctant to leave her. Their attitude toward Mitchell, however, was far from warm.

Mitchell, for the sake of appearances and future cooperation, could do nothing but grit his teeth and force a polite smile.

As soon as the Ryans actually left, Mitchell finally let his temper loose.

"Effie, do you even know what you're doing?" he hissed between clenched teeth.

Effie shot him a cool glance, a mocking smile playing on her lips. "Mitchell, did you really think you could threaten me by using my grandmother?"

Mitchell's heart skipped a beat. What did she mean by that?
