Chapter 500 Behind-the-Scenes Helper

Scarlett's face twisted with anger, but she had no choice but to swallow her fury.

Patrick followed closely behind, his face showing concern as he spoke softly. "I can't believe Michael's mom is so unreasonable, slandering people like that. I heard she was at the Emerald City police station before? Is that true? Is she back to fight Michael for his inheritance?"

Candice sighed sympathetically upon hearing this.

She had once thought the Smith family seemed nice and had even fantasized about marrying into it. Now, it seemed best to avoid such trouble.
