Chapter 295: My Daughter Is Not for Others to Discipline

As soon as Willow finished speaking, Muff and Jasper came downstairs. Jasper's face was stern as he glanced at Willow and Lily Ward in the living room. "The Reed family's children are not for you to discipline!" "Mr. Reed, Jasper..." Willow stood up in a panic when she saw them appear. "I didn't mean it that way. I just wanted to remind Tina."

"After all, Tina has been away for a long time without anyone to guide her. She might not be like a proper lady..."

"Nonsense!" Muff was so angry that his beard trembled. "What do you mean no one guided her? Our Tina is well-behaved and outstanding. She doesn't need an outsider like you telling her what to do!" Muff's attitude was forceful, and Jasper's expression was cold. "Ms. Ward, my daughter doesn't need your guidance."

"Jasper!" Willow hurriedly tried to explain herself. "I didn't mean it that way. I had good intentions..."

"Mr. Reed, my mother is just concerned about Miss Reed," Lily Ward interjected to support her mother. "We want to resolve past misunderstandings and hope to become friends with Miss Reed."

"I don't need friends," Tina said as she threw the magazine she was holding onto the table and stood up. "Nor do I need your concern."

Could she not see through Willow and Lily Ward's intentions? Did Willow want to take the position of the mistress of the Reed family? As long as she hadn't figured out whether Jasper had anything to do with her mother's death, she would remain the eldest daughter of the Reed family, and Willow could forget about becoming her stepmother!

"Miss Reed," Lily Ward adjusted her attitude in front of Muff and Jasper. "No matter what you think, you should respect Tina."

"We are visiting out of respect for Mr. Reed. You should know how to treat guests properly."

Tina lifted her chin and looked down at her. "You consider yourself a guest?"

With that, Tina turned and went upstairs, leaving Willow and Lily Ward standing there in frustration.

"Tina doesn't want to see just anyone," Muff added with a glare at them. "If you don't respect Tina, then the Reed family doesn't welcome you."

"Jasper, I..." Willow tried to explain further, but Jasper didn't even look at her. "I don't want to hear anything more from you. Go back."
