With a loud smack, Edgar slammed his silverware down on the table, making everyone flinch.

He shot a fierce glare at Lucia. “Just shut your mouth and stop making trouble.”

He knew what happened at the Clark family’s party.

The news of Alexei flying into a rage for Natasha had spread like wildfire all over the city.

Those grand fireworks lit up the night sky for hours that night.

He wanted to step in, but he could not do anything about it.

He thought, ‘Only these idiots in my family would still be stirring up trouble when the knife is already at their throats.

‘Instead of thinking about how to smooth things over, they’re still here fanning the flames.’

Lucia stubbornly raised her chin. “Alexei’s woman is supposed to be the future head of the Turner family.

How can someone like Natasha, who has no one to rely on and is so disrespectful, ever be allowed into our family?

‘As his elder, isn’t it my job to keep an eye on who he brings home?”

Just thinking about how arrogant and nasty Natasha was the last time she showed up at their house made Lucia’s blood boil.

If she marries Alexei, then where does that leave me?‘ Lucia thought bitterly.

Dereck poured Edgar a cup of milk and said coolly, “Miss Clark doesn’t measure up in terms of background.”

With Alexei’s abilities, he didn’t need to marry for status. The background of his wife didn’t

matter much.

If anything, picking someone with a humble background would make things even easier for

them.

But what they wanted was someone easy to keep in line, just like Unity.

Judging from last time, Natasha was a real piece of work. She was sharp, sly, and not afraid to

bite back.
