Not One, But Two!

Chapter 162

"Greg Buckley!"

Angered to the point of not caring about anything anymore, Jonathan shouted Greg's full name, only to be slapped by Victoria right after.

"What is wrong with you?! How could you talk to your own uncle like that? Is his full name something you can just shout out? Apologize to him right now!"

Victoria felt her chest pain upon hitting her son. He's not so short-fused usually, so why is he so easily agitated today?

Glancing at Abigail, Victoria suddenly became a bit angry. It's all because of this woman!

A hint of hate flashed across her eyes, but she quickly hid it. The slap by Victoria left Jonathan feeling a bit helpless.

"Mom, it was him who started it first."

"Nonsense! If it weren't for your uncle helping to prop the family up, do you think that we can afford to live like this now? Have you forgotten all my teachings? Were all your etiquettes thrown away?"

Victoria, who always knew that she wasn't a true princess from the Buckley Family, always felt a bit inferior even though Valerie treated her very well. Thinking that she wasn't Valerie's real daughter, Victoria knew that some things were not set in stone. That was why she placed such importance on family heritage and influence, hoping that her son would some day marry a true rich girl from a prominent family, not someone from a second-rate family like Emma and Abigail.

Jonathan, who was challenging Greg right in front of her, was just seeking his own demise. Victoria would never allow a woman to disrupt her current living standards. Other people might not know what Greg was capable of, but she herself knew it very well, seeing how it was her that raised this wolf cub all by herself. So, how could she not know?

Handling Jonathan now personally would be better than Greg making a move, since Victoria could still hold back. But if it were Greg, it would not seem that he would care about whether he lived or not.

Facing his mother's anger, no matter how wronged Jonathan felt, he had to calm himself down irregardless. Now was still not the time to fall out with Greg. The Fraser Family was not entirely in the clear yet, so if Greg did something behind the scenes, they would really suffer a huge loss.

Thinking this, he regained his senses as he looked at Greg. Even though Jonathan was grinding his teeth out of hatred, he still said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Uncle Greg."

"What did you say? My ears are not too sensitive nowadays, so I might not hear you if you talk too softly."

Going to far as to pick his ear, Greg pretended as if he really could not hear Jonathan's words.
