Chapter 434: Chapter 444

Chapter 444 “This spread looks amazing. Thanks for your hospitality, Mrs. Brooks Senior.” Conner completely disregarded Hailey and took a seat.

Hailey responded with a cold voice, “It seems people from Lentimas City have no manners. I heard the Jefferson family struck it rich overnight, and that says a lot about your behavior.”

“Mrs. Brooks Senior, you seem to have a rather low opinion of me.”

“Hmph! You expect me to greet you warmly after you stole someone else’s granddaughter–in–Law?” Halley’s words dripped with sarcasm.

Henry, Initially skeptical of Maeve’s earlier words, now believed every one of them. If Nathalie married into the Brooks family, what kind of life would she have led?

Next door, Maeve calmly enjoyed her meal while Charlie and Lyra, who had been chatting earlier, set down their cutlery. They found the thin walls and terrible soundproots highly entertaining Maeve was quite pleased with the tension unfolding next door. If only Henry had come to see Hailey today, perhaps Hailey would have put on a friendly facade. But Henry had brought Conner, which was a clear provocation to Hailey.

Unfortunately, Halley was the type who would retaliate if she felt disrespected.

“Bang!”

As expected, Henry slammed the table and declared coldly, “Mrs. Brooks Senior, Conner is my son–in–law. Your words insult both my family and the Jefferson family!”

“Clara is carrying my grandson’s child! She belongs in the Brooks family, and Henry, you should ask your daughter what she wants!!

“As a father, I can make decisions on her behalf Sergio is still hung up on his wide and neglects my daughter. I will never let her marry such a heartless man!”

“You!”

Hailey stood up angrily. “Henry Ramoz! How dare you! Don’t forget, you’re at Seathburn! Who’s in charge here?”

“Just because the Brooks family runs this place doesn’t mean n you can do whatever you want. Let me be clear. I will never consent to my daughter marrying into your family!”

“Ridiculous. If your shameless daughter hadn’t crawled into Sergio’s bed and gotten pregnant, do you really think I’d allow such an indecent woman into my family?” Hailey shot back sharply.

“And let’s not forget, there’s still doubt whether Clara is even your daughter. A woman as deceitful as ber–who’s to say she hasn’t stolen someone else’s identity?”

“You old hag! What nonsense are you spouting?”

Henry’s face darkened with anger, and even Comer frowned slightly.

Hailey sneered, “Clara killed someone before, didn’t you know? Well, you should ask your beloved daughter about it. This isn’t the first time she’s stolen someone’s identity anyway “Just yesterday, she came to me in tears, begging to marry into our family. Out of pity for her pregnancy, I was willing to give her a chance. But clearly, none of you appreciate it!”

Hearing that it was Clara who approached Halley, Conner’s eyes turned hostile.

Hailey pressed on “Clara herself admitted that your so–called son–in–law forced himself on her, and her heart lies with Sergia.

Henry, you better be sure you’re dealing with the right daughter, or you’ll find yourself in trouble!”

Henry was livid. “How dare you slander my daughter like this? Fine! You old hag! Nathalie will never marry into your family! And I won’t let her keep that child, either!
