Second Chances Protecting Mrs. Hall

Chapter 57

Kate’s words not only mentioned Emma, but also Llam.

Kate and Elsie’s goal today was to deal a blow to Emma and Liam.

Therefore, the table that had just been moved over was high. One could only paint while standing.

Although Liam was tall, sitting in a wheelchair clearly meant he couldn’t paint using such a table.

Elsie, Brad, and the others wanted to humiliate Liam to the extreme in front of everyone.

This plan was not only vicious in humiliating Emma as an uncultured countrywoman, but also in humiliating Liam as a disabled person sitting in a wheelchair.

A few people who usually support Brad started to stir things up.

“Miss Johnson, aren’t you making things difficult for people?”

“One has had a life of luxury since he was a kid and came from an affluent background, while the other is a countrywoman who catches fish and farms. With an exceptional painting as a point of comparison, she won’t dare to come forward to paint.”

“That’s right. It’d be fine if Emma grew up in the Wilson family’s home. Despite being a modest family, they could afford education. But she was abandoned by them since childhood. She probably isn’t even as good as the late Aria.”

“Aria’s talent is just average. Emma is definitely even worse. For once, Mr. Hall returns to the Hall family’s home today, so let’s not cause

trouble.”

A few people had some drinks, and as they talked, they became more and more offensive, even to the point of offending Liam.

Outwardly, Elsie didn’t express her stance, but the corners of her mouth curled into a smug smile.

“Since that’s the case, then let’s just skip over Emma,” she said.

She couldn’t help but feel smug. “Who’s next,” she said.

“You think you can skip over me just because you say so?”

Just then, a woman’s cold voice sounded quietly.

Emma crossed her arms and stared at Elsie.

Elsie frowned as she asked, “Are you going to paint?”

“Didn’t you guys specially set up these things just to make me paint?” Emma said with a smile as she tilted her head, stepping forward in her high heels.
