Surprisingly, Neera shot back without hesitation, showing him no respect.

“I’m not insinuating anything. I’ve made myself very clear. You know exactly what you’ve been up to! I suppose you thought you could take advantage of the time when my aunt and uncle were getting married to plot behind their backs, didn’t you? This is a clear case of when the cat’s away, the mice come out to play. You had better know your place, as I’m still in charge! I have assumed this position as the head of the family in a fair manner, conducting myself with dignity and integrity. Even if there are shortcomings, they are not severe enough to warrant my dismissal. If you wish to remove me from this position, you must have a legitimate reason. If you resort to underhanded tactics behind my back, I will not accept it. Mr. Robin, what do you think?”

When Robin saw her domineering demeanor. He chuckled and nodded, saying, “I think you’re absolutely right. You, as the head of the family, are doing an excellent job in the eyes of discerning people.” With his affirmation, Neera felt much more at ease and continued to speak boldly.

“Mr. Baxter, I know you’re not satisfied, but even if you’re not, there’s nothing you can do about it. Either you submit to me, obey my orders, and stop your underhanded actions, or you can leave this house right now with your followers because I will absolutely not tolerate any disobedience!”

No one expected her to utter such harsh words. Everyone present was stunned.

Meanwhile, Jean, who was in the corner of the room, had his arms folded in front of him, laughing nonchalantly with a face full of pride.

That’s my wife out there, full of charisma and glory!

Baxter sprang up from his seat, his face filled with rage.

Troy and Ollie were also glaring at Neera, unable to contain their anger.

“What did you say? What gives you the right to drive us away? Dream on if you think you can expel us from the Gordon family!”

“Who knows whether dreams come true or not? You were the one who asked me what right I have to drive you away. Have you forgotten? I am still the head of the Gordon family. My word is law, and I am the symbol of power. I can kick the three of you out with a snap of my fingers!”

As Neera spoke, she lightly tapped the edge of the table with her fingers, her demeanor calm yet commanding.

“Don’t forget that as the head of the family, I have the right to make the final decision. The reason I’ve been tolerating you all this time is because I didn’t want to stoop to your level, and I believe we’re all family, so there’s no need for hostility. But that doesn’t mean I’m a pushover and you can manipulate me however you want. It’s been so long, yet you still can’t accept it. If that’s the case, I don’t think we need to make things difficult for each other. The Gordon family can function perfectly well without you. If you can’t stand the sight of me, then get out of this house. But if you want to stay, then behave yourselves and keep your noses clean! However, I must warn you in advance. The Gordon family is currently under the jurisdiction of Lordsworth Estate. If you leave the Gordon family, you will lose its protection. Lordsworth Estate will naturally not care about your survival at all. As for Bartitsu Guild, let me remind you that the Gordon family has long since fallen out with them. If you’re thinking of seeking their support now, it’s simply impossible. After all, Matthew is a person who tolerates no one!”

Baxter and his sons were suddenly stunned when they heard Neera’s barrage of words.

It was only then that they realized they had no bargaining chips at all and the trump card was in Neera’s hand.

At that very moment, even if they were reluctant, they had to admit that Neera was quite capable, as she had pinned under her thumb.

If they were to lose the protection of the Gordon family now, they would indeed be finished, just as Neera had said.

In the end, this internal strife was thoroughly quelled by the sheer dominance of Neera.

Even though Baxter was filled with indignance, he finally saw the situation clearly.

He had to admit that he was no match for this young head of the family.

Chad really has a discerning eye to have chosen quite an impressive individual. She appears gentle and harmless, like a person who couldn’t hurt a fly. But in reality, this woman is feisty and ruthless, definitely not one to be trifled with.

Having dealt with the internal chaos of the Gordon family, Neera could finally set her mind at ease and head to the Cox residence.

Neera was happy to be reunited with Avery after a long separation.

“It seems like your old wounds have mostly healed since we last met, hasn’t it?”

The two reminisced about old times.

Avery lowered his head and let out a soft chuckle, then lifted his gaze to meet her glistening eyes.

“Yeah, thanks to your medicine, I’m almost completely healed. We haven’t seen each other for a while, and you look much healthier. It seems that Mr. and Mrs. Gordon’s wedding has brought you a lot of joy.”

“Of course, I’m thrilled that my aunt and uncle finally tied the knot. It’s just a shame you couldn’t make it. Uncle Chad even mentioned you at the wedding.”

“There’s no helping it. The Cox family has too much going on right now. I simply can’t get away. However, I have given them a generous gift. I hope they like it.”

As he spoke, he began sizing up Neera once again.

“Have you been doing well back home recently? I haven’t heard from you in a while. I intended to call you, but I’ve been swamped with work here. Also, with the time difference, I haven’t been able to reach out to you.”

Neera smiled and said, “Everything is going well. Thank you for your concern.”

Beside them, Jean was listening to their conversation, feeling slightly uncomfortable inside.

However, he didn’t say anything as he sat quietly by the side.

It was Avery who looked over, greeting him indifferently, “Mr. Beauvort, long time no see.”

With a slight lift of his eyebrows, Jean responded nonchalantly, “Indeed, Mr. Cox. It’s been quite a while since we last met.”

Just a single exchange between the two of them was enough to change the atmosphere, making it feel somewhat

tense.

Whenever two individuals with overwhelmingly strong auras come together, sparks would always fly.

When Neera started to feel it, not only was she getting a headache, but she also began to regret why she brought Jean with her.

She cleared her throat and quickly changed the subject to discuss matters concerning the Cox family

“Before I came here, my uncle mentioned that Bartitsu Guild has been frequently challenging and suppressing the families under the Cox family. What’s the story behind this? And what does the Cox family plan to do now?”

The mention of serious matters elicited a solemn expression from Avery.

“Bartitsu Guild was merely using the same old tactics. When I left, some of my followers, due to various reasons, did not. The guild seized this opportunity to suppress them, aiming to target me through this. Those partisans have been following the Cox family for so many years that they can almost be considered a part of the Cox family. The Cox family cannot abandon them, so I had no choice but to send men to help them resist. For now, they are still holding up.

But this time, Bartitsu Guild has put in a lot more effort. They’re hoping to use this opportunity to completely destroy the Cox family, leaving us with no chance to make a comeback. Of course, there’s another possibility. I feel that Bartitsu Guild wants to make an example of the Cox family to intimidate Lordsworth Estate.”

Upon hearing these words, Jean couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.

Do those fools from Bartitsu Guild really think they’re capable of intimidating Lordsworth Estate? They must be dreaming!

Of course, he didn’t voice these words.

Upon hearing Jean’s snigger, Avery glanced at him out of the corner of his eye. He didn’t say anything, nor did he take it to heart as he continued his conversation with Neera.
