"Swollen your big head, damn it, Eleanor Spencer's face hadn't even been touched."
She admired Viscount Johnson's ability to lie with his eyes wide open.
"Hey, did she really hit you?" Viscount Johnson quietly asked her.
Aurelia Shaw shook her head, "Do you think I'd let her take advantage of ?"
"That's true." Viscount Johnson murmured, "Seeing how small and frail she is, there's no way she could beat you."
Does he an that she's strong and sturdy?
Aurelia pinched Viscount Johnson's waist.
Viscount Johnson's face changed, gritting his teeth in pain.
But in Nico Spencer's eyes, it looked different. He thought Johnson was in a bad mood, which was why his face looked gloomy.
Deep down he was anxious because lately, the Spencer Family had business dealings with the Johnson Family. It was rumored the business was gradually handed over to the young master of the Johnson Family, Viscount Johnson. He couldn't lose such a valuable connection. If he wanted to maintain business relations with the Johnson Family in the future, it was crucial not to offend this future successor, Viscount Johnson.
Nico Spencer's face changed as he walked up and slapped Cymbeline Jennings, "Wretched wife!"
Cymbeline Jennings didn't know what had happened and looked at Nico Spencer with grievance, unsure of what she had done wrong.
The tears welling up in her eyes were exactly like Eleanor Spencer's pitiful white lotus look.
At last, she knew where Eleanor Spencer had learned it from. Like mother, like daughter.
"Old Spencer, why did you hit ? What did I say wrong, or do wrong?" Cymbeline Jennings cried out in grievance.
How did he marry such a foolish woman!
Nico Spencer massaged his temples in frustration and glared at Cymbeline Jennings, "You dare to offend the young master of the Johnson Family! And we clearly saw when we entered that it was Isabel Bennett hitting Miss Shaw, turning black into white, slandering Miss Shaw. If you dare to say another word, take your shaful daughter and get out of this house."
Cymbeline Jennings was too frightened to speak.
Where could she go to find money to support herself if she and her daughter moved out? Nico Spencer was truly ruthless. After all these years of following him and raising his daughter, he was ready to kick them out just like that.
But that's the cruelty of grand families; Nico Spencer had so many mistresses outside. Picking any one of them to co in could easily replace her position.
n like that never care about won.
Aurelia Shaw furrowed her brow slightly.
In the past, she always saw scenes of Nico Spencer and Cymbeline Jennings being loving, and Eleanor Spencer always claid her parents were deeply in love in front of her, but now seeing it with her own eyes, she realized Cymbeline Jennings' standing in the household was so low.
She found Nico Spencer's behavior sowhat distasteful.
As if sensing what she was thinking, Viscount Johnson whispered in her ear, "I'm not like that."
Feeling his words were too blunt, he coughed and explained, "What I an is, we have a good family tradition of only marrying one, absolutely never allowing mistresses outside. Look at my dad, he never sought one, if I dared, he'd definitely break my leg."
"That's true."
Aurelia did admire Uncle Johnson for that. He only ever loved Aunt Johnson his whole life, never letting her suffer any grievances.
But...
She smiled self-deprecatingly, "Isn't my family in the sa situation? What right do I have to criticize others."
Viscount Johnson furrowed his brows, "Your dad's situation... that is... it's an exception."
...
"Young Master Johnson." Seeing Viscount Johnson not speaking and just whispering with Aurelia Shaw, Nico Spencer spoke up.
