Chapter 280

Marcel snapped, “You missed Noella? The nerve of you guys!”

Upon witnessing the opulence of the Schnabels‘ home decor, Vincent made up his mind to stick around, at least until he got his hands on some cash.

“Look, sir, my mom treated Noella far better than she ever treated Briony, her own granddaughter!”

Bringing up Harriet proved to be a mistake.

Marcel scoffed at the mention of her name.

“Harriet was good to Noella because Noella’s her granddaughter, which has nothing to do with you.” .

Vincent thought Marcel meant that Old Mrs. Lambert treated Noella like her own granddaughter without any ulterior motives.

“Sir, we’ve raised Noella for nearly nineteen years. I believe we deserve some recognition for that.”

Marcel raised an eyebrow, his mere presence commanding respect.

“You claim to have raised her, yet you’ve never celebrated her birthday, skimped on her tuition and allowance, and even restricted her from eating her fill at night. This is what you call for raising her for nineteen years?”

Vincent insisted, “Little girls who eat too much end up struggling to lose weight when they’re older! You’ve no idea how hard Belinda had to work to slim down. I Want Noella to go through that. Restricting her

Belinda and Vincent.

Marcel couldn’t help but laugh. “So, you’re saying you starved Noella out of concern for her?”

“That’s right.”

“What exactly are you here for? Speak now or I’m calling the police!”

Vincent wasn’t here for Noella; he was obviously after the Schnabels‘ money.
