Chapter 205: Chapter 205

Chapter 205 Money-Spinner

Sandra had never been slapped in the face in her entire life.

Before she married Avery’s father, Sandra had always been very bossy in the Bullock family. She would

get revenge on anyone who said harsh words to her.

So, for so many years, even if the Bullock family favored Jax, no one had ever been able to make a

move on Sandra.

After Sandra married into the Gallard family, she pretended to be a little softer. Though Andrew did not

like her, Avery’s father liked her and had always protected her. So, even though Andrew was dissatisfied

with Sandra, he never hit her.

But today, Andrew had clearly lost his mind due to anger.

Sandra was not afraid of anyone. Now that she had been slapped by Andrew, she did not dare to retort

at all. She covered her face in embarrassment.

George sensed something wrong. He was stunned for a moment before walking over. “Mr. Gallard,

although Sandra is young and ignorant, she won’t mess around.

“Could there be some misunderstanding? Could it be that Avery went out and picked up the phone, and

someone else told him about Ms. Garcia’s matter?”

Cyrus said in a low voice, “That’s impossible. When I helped Mr. Avery back to the ward, his phone fell to

the ground. After I picked it up for him, I checked it and confirmed that he did not contact anyone during

that time.

“Mr. Bullock, if you insisted on protecting Ms. Bullock, you would naturally make it

anyway.”

George sneered and turned to blame Sandra. “What are you talking about? Sandra, you know about

Avery’s situation. How could you be so careless when you talked?

“Your father–in–law even thought that you didn’t have a good upbringing. Come with me. I have to talk to

you.”

Andrew snorted. Given George was so humble, it was not good for Andrew to continue to blame Sandra,

no matter how angry he was.

Katrina’s face was pale, and her forehead was sweating. At this time, she was only trying to get herself

off.

“Mr. Gallard, I… I really don’t know what happened.”

Given what happened just now, Andrew should have also blamed Katrina, but no matter how angry he

was, he would not forget the Swale family’s background and the relationship between the Swale family

and his family over the years.

No matter what, Andrew shouldn’t teach Katrina a lesson, since the Swale family would not be as

humble as the Bullock family.

Andrew said coldly, “Alright. Go back to your father. Katrina, you are still young, and you grew up with

Avery. Don’t follow Sandra to cause trouble.”

Katrina immediately nodded. “I understand, Mr. Gallard.”

The slap that Andrew gave Sandra just now scared Katrina out of her wits. After she finished speaking,

she hurriedly left.

After Katrina went far away, Andrew sneered in disdain. “She’s indeed adopted. She’s so petty and can’t

be compared to her brother.

Even though both of them had been raised by the Swale family for so many years, Braylen was indeed

the biological son. He would never be so timid as Katrina.

Andrew thought of Darlene for no reason and felt even more unhappy.

If the Gallard family didn’t adopt Darlene back then, how could there be so many

troubles? It was really annoying.

George brought Sandra into the break room next door. After closing the door, he didn’t look angry as just

now. Instead, he was very nice to Sandra.

George sighed. “Sandra, I don’t mean to scold you, but you are indeed silly to provoke

Avery at this critical moment.

“Now that the Bullock Group is in trouble, I’m still counting on your father–in–law to

help us. At this time, you’d better behave yourself and try to please the Gallard family

Sandra no longer tried to hide her anger and unwillingness. She slammed her phone on the coffee table

and sneered. “Dad, that sounds nice. The Bullock Group has always been in trouble for so many years.

“Dad, what have you done to the company? All these years, I have worked hard in the Gallard family and

cleaned up the mess for you. Dad, don’t you know about it?”

George looked a little guilty. “Sandra, how could you say that? We are family. I did this for your own

good. If you behave yourself and please your father–in–law, your life in the Gallard family will be better.”

Sandra’s eyes were full of hatred. “Dad, don’t say such charming words. You’re just worried that I will

anger the Gallard family and ruin the money–spinner of the Bullock family, right?

“When I had just turned eighteen, you sent me to the nightclub and asked me to seduce that old man in

his forties.

“Now I am thirty–one, and that man is almost sixty. I’ve ruined my life for the sake of the Bullock family.

Dad, why are you still dissatisfied? Why?”

Sandra did not know why she could no longer keep her cool and smashed everything on

the coffee table.

She lost control of her emotions, and her eyes turned red. “Dad, how could you blame me? All these

years, for the Bullock family, for you, for Jax, what else do I have to do?

“I became the stepmother of a man who is only one year younger than me. I’ve tried my best to please

their family and get some money. How much have I spent on myself?

“But now I throw myself into a mess. Dad, apart from complaining that I don’t give you

enough money, what else will you do?”

George was a little panicked. “Sandra, what are you doing? I just casually said a few words. Alright. It’s

my fault. I won’t say that to you anymore. Calm down.”

As he spoke, George slapped himself twice. Now, the Bullock family was relying on Sandra. He could not

provoke her.

With that, she directly left the break room. When she went out, Sandra happened to bump into Darlene

and Gustave coming from the end of the corridor.

Darlene looked very bad. Given that, Sandra thought she must have come to settle accounts with Avery

for something.

Sandra calmed down and walked over with a smile. “Ms. Garcia, Mr. Walpole, why are you here? It’s not

dawn yet. Is there something urgent?”

Darlene’s face was gloomy. She looked at Sandra with resentment.

When Sandra met her gaze, her heart skipped a beat, but she tried her best to force a

smile.

Gustave asked calmly, “Ms. Bullock, which ward does Mr. Gallard stay at?”

Sandra pointed at the end of the corridor. “He is still in the innermost ward. Do you want to see him?

Now he is moody and not in a good condition. You may have to go in later.”

Before she finished speaking, Darlene walked straight to the end of the corridor.

Cyrus wanted to stop her, but Darlene pushed open the door and entered.
