Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks
My Billionaire Family 406

Chapter 406

After speaking, he stood up straight, shielding Cherise, and met Mullen's eyes. "Uncle, I invited you today just to share my happiness.

"It's your problem if you don't accept it. Cherise is Rayburn's bloodline, and that's an undeniable fact. No one can disrespect

her over it

"You must understand that the current head of the Muller family is me, Rayburn. If you don't want to share this joy with me it's getting dark. Please head home early for some rést!"

Mullen pointed at Rayburn and exclaimed. "You, you, are you defying our entire family? Ask any elder from the Muller family here and see who actually agrees with this.

"Let's not talk about Cherise's current status right now. Back then, your parents were already against your marriage to Megan. Bringing her back so suddenly, how could your late parents rest in peace knowing this! "Besides, I heard she's been living in the countryside for years. Who knows what means she used to achieve her current

status?"

After Mullen finished speaking, the other direct elders of the Muller family present also stood up to object, Mrs. Muller's expression visibly relaxed as she picked up the glass of red wine in front of her and took a sip. Mr. Muller was visibly angry and just as he was about to speak, Cherise stepped forward to stop him.

Morris and those who cared about Cherise in the audience noticeably changed their expressions, but seeing the people on stage show no reaction, they suppressed their tempers, not daring to get up suddenly. Cherise walked up to Mullen, clapping her hands. "I wasn't aware that the elderly have so much free time these days.

"I wonder how acknowledging my grandpa affects you elders or any unrelated person's business? Do you think that with me here, you'll get a smaller piece of the pie in the future?" Cherise said, giving a disdainful glance at Mullen. Mullen was taken aback by her look and clearly caught on, stepping back. "You bratty girl, speaking so arrogantly, aren't you just after a piece of our Muller family pict

"I know you're Morris's wife, so what? Without the strong backing of a powerful family, you're just looking for a way to stabilize your position as the head lady of the Morris family, aren't you?

"And with your attitude, showing no respect for your elders, you shouldn't have come into the Muller family"

Cherise sneered twice and looked straight at him. "The ancient siges taught me to respect the elderly, but that means elders with great virtue, not someone like you who makes trouble for others. You really don't deserve it!

"It's clear as day that I am Rayburn's granddaughter, and this bloodline can't be changed. 1, Cherise, have to reason to deceive. If you have doubts, you can ask Edmund or the director of the DNA testing center in Clusia, they're all seated right there.

"I see you're getting older, so I advise you to sit down and not let others use you, or you'll just end up losing out yourself

"As for whether or not I have any support, I know well enough. My greatest support is a grandmother who taught me well. "The Muller family's wealth is immense, but that has nothing to do with me: I, Cherise, truly don't care about it." His gaze was eerie, and Mullen stepped back two steps. "You, you you."

Someone in the crowd couldn't hold back any longer and stood. "Mr. Mullen, and all the branches of the Muller family.

Chapter 406

"Cherise, bearing the Leach name, has always been my granddaughter from the start. Even if the Leach manor isn't what it used to be, we still have our pride, and we'll always be part of Cherise's life"

The one who stood up to speak was none other than Oliver, Chenise's real grandfather. He had kept a low profile recently. but seeing Cherise criticized like this, he couldn't stay silent. Cherise nodded at him, a knowing smile on her face.

Someone from a branch of the Muller family overheard Oliver's words and chuckled. "The Leach manor is in a tough spot. but still proud, huh?"

Right after that was said, a familiar male voice was heard. "Does no one pay attention to me unless I say something?" Morns quipped as he casually walked onto the stage with a cup of water in his hand.

As he approached Cherise, he asked, "Thirsty? Why not take a sip first?" He held the cup right up to Cherise's lips. He didn't speak softly, so no one noticed how considerate he was, bringing the water to the stage himself. "Exactly, Cherise's strongest supporter is Morris. How could the Muller family be so oblivious?"

"Sure, a husband's side is important, but a woman's own family must have the strength to hold its ground too."

Seeing this, Mr. Muller said, "Uncle Mullen, it's best if you head back. You're no longer welcome at my party. No matter what I will always love my granddaughter, and I don't need anyone questioning that."

Mullen was losing face, and agreeing wasn't easy. "Do you really accept this woman who just showed up as part of the Muller family?"

After these words were spoken, many of the Muller family's side branches stood up and expressed their disagreement "Really? You guys are defying me, the head of the family?" Rayburn said angrily.

Cherise watched from the side, seeing the helplessness on Rayburn's face. No matter how wrong he had been before. Cherise couldn't stand by and let others bully him like this.

She stood in front of Rayburn, facing the standing members from the side families of the Mullers. "All you want is someone with a background you respect, right? You think I don't measure up to your family's standards? Fine."

After saying this, Cherise stood on the stage and made a phone call. People who weren't familiar with her had no idea what she was doing. In less than a minute, all of the side family members, including Mullen, received a phone call. "I've been fired,"

"My account's been locked."

"I got expelled from Betrico University."

"What happened? My project contract suddenly got terminated
