Zachary walked over to Yvette and stood behind her, his dark eyes fixed on the old lady, who looked like she was about to faint from anger. "What Yvette says is what I say. If she says 'show you out, then you're being shown out. And if you feel we shouldn't maintain ties anymore, then that's fine with us. We'll just go our separate ways and never speak again."

The expressions on the faces of the Chambers family relatives in the living room were truly something to behold. Their reactions were nothing short of spectacular.

The old lady, clutching her chest, wasn't faking it anymore-this time, the pain was real. Trembling, she pointed a shaking finger at them. "You... you.... you two are outrageous!"

Seeing Yvette's frown, Lucas quickly stepped forward. "Please, this way."

In the end, seeing that no one was going to back her up, the old lady had no choice but to leave the Chambers family home, cursing under her breath as she went. The room was left in an awkward silence.

but deep down he still looked down on Yvette, believing she must have used some underhanded tactics. This belief was deeply ingrained in his mind, so no matter what Zachary said, he remained convinced. The man was unwilling to accept it, but out of respect for Zachary's authority, he could only meekly reply, "If it's not, it's not.
