Chapter 287 Everyone Is In Shock

The Quirks were left speechless, feeling that Lydia had been greatly wronged.

Finished

Up until then, Lydia had never realized that she had been Jared's secret object of affection. After Jared married, he had never really overstepped any boundaries.

As a result, Ava ended up blaming all her failures on Lydia.

She really should've taken a look at what she had done

Alexander hadn't given much thought to these matters. Upon hearing the truth, he understood why Ava dared to execute such a bold plan. It turned out there was a precedent, she knew what choices the Winters family would make under such circumstances. That was why she had the audacity to frame Damien and Deborah Unfortunately, things didn't go as smoothly as they did in the past.

Faced with her daughter's rebellion, Ava panicked and resorted to using the same methods she normally used on Damien to deal with Ruby.

"Are you leaving or not? If you're not leaving. I'll disown you!"

In reality, if Ruby looked closely, she could have seen the signs of her mother's breakdown and the craze in her bloodshot eyes. However, Ruby had been spoiled and was even more rebellious at her mother's words. She even went as far as to shove Ava away. In the end, Sergio couldn't bear it any longer. He stepped forward, grabbed Ava's arm, and warned in a hushed tone, "Enough! Now is not the time to cause a scene."

Sergio disregarded Ava after that, even if she pleaded with the most humble expression. He turned to Lydia, whose expression remained unchanged, and smiled. "I believe you've given this matter thorough consideration. What are your thoughts on this marriage, Mdm. Lydia?"

Lydia let out a cold laugh, ready to speak, but Oliver interrupted her.

"Did you not hear what your wife just said? Nothing happened between me and your daughter, are you still trying to frame me?" Oliver mocked, "Marry her? In your dreams!"

Sergio, being an elder, was utterly embarrassed when spoken to in such a manner by a youngster. However, it was clear that Oliver didn't care, so his usual roundabout tactics were useless against such a dumb ss. He had no choice but to confront him directly. He chose to push his daughter forward to confront the situation. After being nudged by her father, Ruby immediately felt emboldened.

"Oliver, how could you say such a thing?" Ruby, who aspired to be an actress, instantly put on an act, accusing him of being a heartless man.

The performance, however....

If she auditions like this, the director will most certainly kick her out.

The Quirks nodded silently, agreeing with Isabella's silent comment that Ruby's action was awkward to
