Chapter 1237 An Uncultured Girl

Janet brought Vera to a newly opened cafe next to the W Marks Studio.

As soon as they sat down, Vera asked impatiently, “Where did you hide Laney and the child?”

Instead of answering her question, Janet responded firmly, “What do you plan to do with Laney afterreplaceing her? Will you arrange for another assistant to spy on her? Or are you planning on just taking thechild away?”

Vera leaned back on the chair and sneered, “I won’t do anything to her. It doesn’t matter if she comesback or not as long as she returns my granddaughter to me.”

To her, Laney was someone who had ruined their family. She wanted Laney to disappear forever, butthe child was part of the Harding family, so she had to be returned.

Upon hearing Vera’s heartless answer, Janet felt a strong sense of disgust.

Vera was apparently unaware of her faults and did not regard Laney as family. With a mother-in-lawlike her, it was no wonder why Laney was so determined to leave.

Janet furrowed her brows and said coldly, “If that’s the case, then there’s no point in having aconversation. Even if I knew where Laney went, I wouldn’t tell you.”

Vera’s face darkened, and she threatened, “Don’t think you can get away with everything just becauseyou have the White family and the Larson Group backing you up. Are you sure you want to go againstthe Harding family for just a bodyguard?”

Janet snorted disdainfully and replied, “Mrs. Harding, do whatever you want. I’m ready to take you onanytime. But I’m curious. How would Garrett or Mr. Harding react if they knew you were here to make

things difficult for me?”

“You!” Vera cried angrily, feeling at a loss for words.

Vera came to humiliate Janet without Garrett’s and Leo’s knowledge. If they were to replace out, theywould probably ground her.

Just then, a waiter arrived with their coffee. After expressing her gratitude to the waiter, Janet tookgritted her teeth in anger as she watched Janet behaving so calmly.

Meanwhile, Janet felt a little pleased when she saw the frustration on Vera’s face from the corner of hereye.

While Janet respected her elders, she couldn’t help but feel compelled to speak up for Laney, who hadendured too much injustice in the Harding family.

“What will it take for you to tell me where Laney is?” Vera asked impatiently.

Janet set down her coffee and answered coolly, “Mrs. Harding, what’s the rush? Let me guess. Kaileemust have told you to come to me, right?”

Vera’s heart skipped a beat. She did not expect Janet to guess that.

Janet could tell from Vera’s reaction that she had hit the nail on the head. She shook her headdisappointedly and explained, “I won’t tell you where Laney is because I don’t want you to be furthermanipulated by Kailee. That will only cause trouble for Laney and even ruin her relationship withGarrett.”

Vera’s face flushed when she heard Janet’s reasoning.

What Janet had said was undeniable.

However, she was a haughty upper-class socialite. Being silenced by a younger person for the firsttime left Vera feeling very angry.

Thinking about Janet’s life before she was brought back to the White family, Vera couldn’t helpmocking, “How dare you talk to me like that? You’re just an uncultured girl with no idea how importantan heir is to a family.”

Janet felt her anger rise as Vera attacked her past. She couldn’t help but retort, “Despite your nobleupbringing, how could you be so easily manipulated by others? Not only have you driven yourdaughter-in -law away, but now you can’t even see your granddaughter.”

Janet’s words infuriated Vera, causing her face to turn livid in anger.

She glared harshly at Janet and grumbled, “Is this how you were taught to speak to elders in the Whitefamily? It seems that I have to get Johanna to discipline you properly!”

However, before Vera could say anything else, a voice came from behind.

“My daughter has always been perfect. She doesn’t need you to tell her what to do, Mrs. Harding.”
