Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim by Dream Fish

Chapter 179

What needed to be said must be said.

This was Angela's home. If she couldn't even say a few harsh words or send unwelcome guests away, then what was the point?

"You ungrateful woman!" Natalie shot to her feet, pointing a trembling finger at Angela. "How dare you try to kick me out? I'm your grandmother!"

"You... You..." Natalie's face contorted with rage, and she suddenly collapsed, fainting on the spot.
