Not One, But Two!

Chapter 141

Chapter 141

Seeing how Greg was acting, Valerie warned him with a frown, "It's your eldest sister. Take it easy on them."

"Don't worry. I won't cause them to go bankrupt, but I have to teach them a lesson. I have to let them know the consequences of daring to covet my people even though they are leeching off me. Furthermore, they even used such despicable means to instigate you into taking action. They will have to pay a price for their actions." Greg spoke lightly. He even had a small smile on his lips, but the murderous aura in the depths of his eyes was boundless.

She looked like she wanted to say something. In the end, she didn't say anything and simply waved her hand dismissively. "Don't tell Abbie about what happened today."

"Wow! Are you feeling embarrassed now? Did you realize that your intelligence was impaired just now? Who was it that looked so murderous just now? Abbie even mentioned that she is going to come and give you a check-up tomorrow. Do you still have the audacity to let her examine you? Don't you feel ashamed of yourself?"

"Get out! Get out now!"

She straight up lifted her foot and kicked him in the calf. It hurt so much that he hissed in pain.

"I have to ask, Old Madam Buckley, what happened to your manners? Why are you getting violent just because you can't win an argument? You stupidly let somebody else lead you by the nose, so why are you acting so unreasonable and unapologetic now!? Who gave you courage?"

"My daughter-in-law gave me the courage. What's the matter? Do you have a problem with it?"

Her retort immediately made him burst into laughter.

"Your daughter-in-law!? Didn't you say she was my nephew's woman just now?"

"When did I ever say such things? Have I ever said such words? Greg Buckley, let me warn you: Don't you dare slander me. I've never said that she was your nephew's woman!"

She was so confident in her manner of speech that he was speechless to the extreme.

"Right. You didn't say that. It's true you didn't say that. I'm just wondering, Old Madam Buckley—did you obtain all your business deals in the past by being this unreasonable and stubborn?"

"You damn brat! You're asking for a beating!"

She furiously picked up the feather duster and began waving it in his direction.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable for him, he immediately turned tail and fled.

"Old lady, I can promise you that I'll keep this incident today a secret. But, if you don't get justice for my wife's grievances, then don't even think about asking me and my wife to bring our children over to visit you. You can ask your grandson to take care of you in your old age."

After saying that, he got into his car, started the engine, and drove away without caring how angry he made her.

She watched him disappearing into the distance, then her kind expression immediately turned grim. "Lisa!"

A woman in her fifties walked out from the inside. "Yes, Old Madam Buckley."

"Investigate whether Jonathan slept with Emma when he returned from abroad five years ago. Also, find out when they got engaged and when Abigail left the Kain Family."

"Alright." The housekeeper, Lisa, withdrew.

Valeria's gaze was fixed on the tiny spot in the distance. She murmured to herself under her breath, "I gave you as much riches as I could possibly give you and paved the road for you as much as possible. If you remain unsatisfied with what you have and try to reach out your hand to steal what belongs to my son, then there's nothing I can do for you anymore."

Then, she turned around and went back into the villa.

After Greg drove away from the villa, he went straight to the company.

Troy immediately stepped forward at Greg's arrival and reported, "Mr. Buckley, I temporarily placed the project with the Fraser Family on hold. Also, I heard that the Fraser Family has been eyeing the land in the northern suburbs recently. They seem to be working quite closely with the assistant secretary under the guise of your name."

"Hah! The fox is certainly assuming the majesty of the tiger. Since he is wearing my tiger skin, then why can't he just obediently play the part of a decent and aspiring young man? Why does he have to dig his own grave? He is my nephew after all. Seeing how actively he is trying to dig his own grave, as his uncle, I would seem incompetent if I didn't give him a helping hand." Greg turned to Troy with an inquiring look.

Troy was tempted to retort as he thought, Who else but you can turn logic on its head yet speak so confidently, Mr. Buckley? Even if you claim that ducks have sharp beaks, nobody will dare to say anything to you—what more a powerless special assistant like me?
