Chapter 264 A Bunch of Trash
Caroline chuckled with frustration. âWere we close in the past?â
Upon hearing her question, Jade erupted, âOh, my brother! You died so miserably. Your daughterâs
wealthy now, but she acts like she doesnât know us!
âMy mother, my brother! Who will bring us justice? We canât survive. Itâs better to dieâ¦â
Caroline clenched her fists on her lap, glaring at Jadeâs dramatic outburst. She couldnât fathom it. Her
father had great gambling debts in the past, yet they had never kept in touch. Why were they suddenly
here?
Caroline was lost in thought when a sudden, sharp crash interrupted her. Looking up, she saw Gigi
smashing a rabbit ornament Neil had given her when she first started her company.
âWhat a piece of junk! It shattered when it fell,â Gigi remarked with disdain.
Pursing her lips, Gigi reached for another item on the display cabinetâa vase on the third shelf. She
couldnât reach it, so Gregory helped her retrieve it.
Caroline couldnât take it any longer. She stood up and leered at them. âIf you can converse politely. my
employees, I wonât
I can stay calm, too. But if you continue breaking my things and disruption converse politely.
hesitate to use force to stop you.â
Brandon clutched his chest and laughed wickedly. Iâm shaking in my boots.â
As he spoke, he approached Caroline and leaned in. âYouâre going to use violence to stop us?â
Brandon was uncomfortably close, and his foul breath made Caroline cringe. She swallowed her
discomfort and stared him down. âYes,â
âGo on, then!â Brandon raised his phone and pushed it toward Caroline. âHit me! Get someone to hit
1. me. Iâll record it. How shameless can you be!â
Carolineâs anger boiled over. She swatted his phone away and slapped him. âStop being rude!â
Jade, who had been crying, rushed over to cradle Brandonâs face. When she saw the red handprint on
her sonâs face, she pointed at Caroline and scolded her. âShameless! How dare you slap my son?â
She rolled up her sleeves as she spoke, ready to teach Caroline a lesson.
Brandon intervened, âMom, donât hit her! Let her do it.â
While speaking, he lifted his red face and gestured at Caroline. âGo on. Hit me. Iâll have plenty to
say when the reporters arriveâ
âWhat do you want?â Caroline asked.

âNot much,â Brandon replied. âWe want to stay with you for a while. Youâre living in a villa, right? Let us
experience it, too.â
Caroline offered, âI can arrange a hotel for you.â
âNo, we want to stay at your place. If not, weâll expose it on the Internet.â
Caroline closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She had to endure this, at least for now. If more
negative news came out, it would harm her company further.
Gritting her teeth, she said, âFine! Iâll take you home with me.â
Suppressing her emotions, Caroline left the office with her troublesome family.
The employees who had witnessed the spectacle quickly retreated to their offices.
Once Caroline and her guests were gone, they exchanged worried remarks.
âWhat kind of people are they?â
âWhy does Ms. Shenton have such shameless relatives?â
âEvery family has its problems. We canât help her, but we can work hard here.â
Naomi said, âItâs better to work than gossip.â
Everyone fell silent.
