Chapter 521

Bailey's expression darkened. One of the things that she hated was people questioning her parentage.

Initially, Bailey had wanted to spare Olivia from the humiliation on the account of the former's relationship with Justin.

However, since the old woman had decided to trample all over her, Bailey had no reason to put up with it. After all, she was not a sanctimonious doormat.

So what if Olivia was older? The woman had no self-respect and thus, did not have the right to demand respect from Bailey.

“I'm an illegitimate child whose biological father is not a stellar person. This is a well-known fact, Mrs. Xuereb. I don't need you to remind me of this.”

When Bailey said that, she angled her head at Zephyr and continued, “I don't think I need pity. But you, Mrs. Xuereb, deserve the pity more than I do. After all, even your own grandson won't acknowledge you, and he can't wait to put you out of your misery. I'm begging you to regain what's left of your humanity and spare him. It's sad that one so young already has seeds of deep hatred planted in his heart.”

Olivia was so angry that she shuddered. “Y-You... My son owns this medical base! Get lost!”

Bailey arched a brow and smirked. “Your son, you say? I seem to remember that it was my man who paid for all the construction, and it was my man who funded Justin's research and development. I daresay the one who needs to leave is you.”

Olivia convulsed twice, gasping for air as her eyes rolled back. Eventually, she fainted.

Bailey immediately stepped forward and reached out to catch the old woman before she landed on the ground. She then looked outside and shouted, “Mrs. Xuereb has fainted! Can someone hurry and bring her to bed so she can rest?”

A middle-aged housekeeper hurried inside with two younger women behind her.
