Beatrice and Monica were on their way to the front hall when they noticed the butler hurrying towards the ancestral hall with the Baldwin family elders. to the ancestral hall?" Beatrice

"Mom, why are we going

asked curiously. Monica looked around, her expression tense: "Oh no, something big is definitely going to happen."

She worried about Ryan and pulled Beatrice towards the temple.

As soon as I entered the temple, it was crowded with people.

The crowd stood on both sides in an orderly manner, and Beatrice quickly pulled Monica to stand at the inconspicuous end.

She looked up and saw that those long-lost elders had been invited inside.

Caden and Xander sat in the front row, with incense burning by their side, solemn and serious.

In the hall, Oscar knelt down, gritting his teeth.

Beside, Jessie's face turned pale, crying and making a scene, long gone was the supposed elegance of Mrs. Jessie Baldwin. "Ryan! What do you mean? Oscar got hurt because of your cheap daughter. Why do you think you can bring him back?" Ryan looked at her coldly and said, "Why did he get hurt? Do I need to repeat it in public?"

"You!" Jessie's chest heaved violently as she forcefully argued, "The Baldwin family had been raising Beatrice for so many years, what's wrong with asking her to contribute? It's not like it's her first time, so why make such a fuss about it!"

Beatrice was about to retort when Monica suddenly rushed out and slapped Jessie twice, knocking her to the ground.

Jessie groaned and struggled to get up for a while, relying on Oscar who was silent with his head down. Monica was also a woman who used to carry a baby in one hand and ten kilograms of rice in the other.

In recent years, although she has been spoiled, dealing with Jessie, this sickly child, was not a problem.

"Shut up! Your own son is not capable, so you use someone else's daughter as a substitute. I heard that foreigners don't care about age, why didn't he offer you up! Turns out he's picking on someone who is weak!"

Monica stood with her hands on her hips, looking at everyone, and said firmly, "I know you all look down on me! I have been meek and submissive for so many years, just for the sake of everyone getting along peacefully. Since it has come to this, I will just leave, and no one should dare to bring up my daughter again!"

"Outrageous!" Xander slammed the table and stood up. "Do you have the right to speak here? Drag her out for me!"

Monica was startled and her neck shrunk a little, only then did she realize that she had acted

Beatrice quickly rushed out and stood in front of Monica, saying, "Don't touch my mom!"

"It's you again!" Xander glared angrily at Beatrice and waved his hand, ordering, "Get them, the mother and daughter, out of here!" The result was a silent room, with no one listening to Xander at all.

At that moment, Caden set down the teacup.
