My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 1439

She could not stand seeing Lauren's family living better than her own.

Now, the market value of Baroque was already at several billions.

All of it should belong to her!

At this moment, several Mercedes-Benz cars stopped behind more than ten training patrol cars.

Nash and Hera got out of their car, followed closely by Melody.

"Huh, this woman arrived even earlier than us!" Nash's expression darkened.

Hera frowned. "She brought a group of thugs yesterday, and now she's brought a group of officials. I didn't expect her to have so much influence in Huevo County!"

"Let your uncle handle it. If they can't handle it, then we'll intervene!" Nash sighed lightly.

"No... we can't let them delay Maria's funeral!" Hera's tone was cold as she walked over with her own bodyguards.

Nash was slightly surprised. He had thought to consider Hera's feelings, but Hera was actually so decisive.

Melody approached with a smile. "Hera is no longer the weak woman she used to be!"

Nash's lips curled slightly. "Well... acting decisively and swiftly, that's the demeanor a strong woman should have!" "Mom... are you still going to be stubborn?

"Don't you ever think you're at fault?

"We used to be harsh on Hera's family, but in the end, didn't they forgive us?

"Kai and I are about to get married. I just want my parents to see their daughter stepping into the marriage hall!"

Helena was tearful as she walked up to her mother. She said, "Mom, please stop. Let's live together as a family from now on!"

Rooney slapped Helena across the face. She roared angrily like a shrew, "Don't call me 'Mom'. I don't have a daughter like you, you useless thing. You have no backbone. All you do is kneel to Harrison's family!"

"You're insane... You're completely insane..." Hubert stepped forward and pulled his daughter behind him.

Rooney landed another slap across Hubert's face.

In a cold voice, she said, "It's you who's insane... Don't go thinking I can't live without you. Can't you see? I command respect in Huevo County. I have influence everywhere. I go far beyond your hiding and sneaking in Jonford. I'm a thousand times better than you cowards!"

"You insane woman, you're beyond reason!"

Hubert's forehead veins bulged as he slapped Rooney's heavily powdered face.

"How dare you, you worthless thing?! How dare you hit me? I'll kill you today!"

Rooney raised her hand again to strike.

"That's enough!" Hera walked over with six bodyguards.

Rooney stopped her hand with a sneer. "Heh... so the slut is here?"

With that, she played the recorded message again on the megaphone.

"Adam... you little bastard, come out!

"Hera and Nash, get the hell out!"

Hera did not hesitate to slap Rooney across the face. She then grabbed the megaphone from her hand and smashed it on the ground.

"This is madness... Madness... You wretched woman, I'm going to kill you today!"

Rooney trembled with anger, her face twisted with rage as she pulled a mini pistol from her handbag and aimed it at Hera's forehead! The people around turned pale.

One of Hera's bodyguards grabbed Rooney's wrist at lightning-fast speed and forcefully twisted it.
