Chapter 511

"Initially, we were going to drop by as a surprise but didn't anticipate that this would happen. Don't bother yourself with this. Let Grandma handle it,' Gideon said.

"Exactly. Only Grandma's sharp tongue can lecture these idiots," Gino added, rendering Hera speechless.

Mildred pointed at Lilith, who was about to give Amanda a hand, and ordered, "You, come here!"

Lilith stopped and was about to obediently walk toward Mildred when Amanda immediately held her back." You're not allowed to go there!"

"Exactly, you can't go there. Otherwise, we'll disown you!" Although Louis was being pinned to the ground, he did not forget to speak up.

He knew that Lilith cared about that the most. As long as he said those words to her whenever he asked her for money, she would obediently give it to him.

Indeed, Lilith did not walk over upon hearing his threat.

Seeing that made Mildred angrily hobble toward Amanda with the support of her cane. Amanda was so terrified that she immediately withdrew her hand.

Mildred took the opportunity to drag Lilith over and scolded her, "You're so useless! You're no longer a Cresswell since you belong to the Everett family!"

Lilith stumbled upon being pulled over and bumped into Hera, who supported her and asked, 'Are you alright?

"Hera, I've troubled you. I didn't handle these matters well. Mrs. Jones, I'm sorry." Lilith furrowed her brows as her eyes reddened from guilt.

Hera felt uneasy and said gently. "This has nothing to do with you. All of you should go in first." With that, she instructed Isla and Sarah Robinson to help Catherine and Lilith into the house.

Seeing that made Amanda reprimand Lilith loudly, 'You stupid bitch, come back here! I worked so hard to raise you, but this is how you treat me."

"Oh, Amanda Bennett! How dare you try to guilt trip her!" Mildred held onto her cane with her other hand on her waist

"Back then, you shamelessly asked us for a million dollars in cash and to build a mansion for you in the village. After receiving all that, you promised to break ties with your daughter and never contact her again! Yet here you are, causing trouble for my granddaughter!"

Amanda wanted to push the blame on Mildred and deny everything. Unexpectedly, Mildred took a copy of the contract from her pocket and slapped it on Amanda's face.

The agreement back then was clearly documented in black and white. All details were explicitly stated in the contract, including signatures and fingerprints. This left Amanda and Louis completely speechless.

A million dollars was truly considered a significant sum 20 years ago. But Amanda never expected Lilith to give birth to such intelligent sons and a talented daughter for the Everett family.

Amanda heard that Hera had created some kind of special medication. Although it was merely the size of a fingernail, it was sold for 500 million dollars.

In comparison to that 500 million dollars, the one million dollars from 20 years ago was nothing. Besides, Amanda did not even get to spend a penny of that one million as Louis had gambled it all away. Thus, she regretted her decision back then.

The surrounding crowd began to criticize them as Amanda tried to explain, 'This...I...

Mildred fiercely interrupted her, continuing to chide her, 'All these years, you should know very well how much money Lilith has secretly given to you.

"Seeing that we're in-laws, I've looked the other way, just considering that she was donating to the needy. Not

only are you two ungrateful, but you're even here to cause trouble now.

"You even want my granddaughter to respect and take care of all of you. Such rubbish. Go to hell!' Mildred's words sounded nastier as she continued reprimanding them. She didn't care about her reputation anymore.

But James still cared about his pride and reminded Mildred, "Mom, let's not waste time talking to them. They intentionally tried to ruin Hera's reputation. We'll send them to the police station right away regardless of our familial ties.

"Whatever they did earlier is considered defamation. According to the law, they could be jailed for up to three years..."

The thought of going to jail terrified Amanda, who hurriedly helped Louis up. "They're so hateful. Let's quickly leave."

Hera said, "Hold on. After talking all that crap, are you planning to just walk away like that?"

Upon hearing that, Nicholas immediately grabbed Amanda. Unafraid of escalating the matter, he licked his lips and asked Hera, "What shall we do with them? Should we throw dog shit at them?"

Hera said nothing. She wondered if nasty things were all he could think of. She looked at the reporters in the middle of their livestreaming.

"The audience has been following this story for a while, so they deserve to know everything. All of you must tell the truth in front of the cameras. Tell us who sent you here. Otherwise...
