When Mrs. Livingstone saw the person, she was a little taken aback and asked, “What’s wrong?”

This person leaned over and whispered something in Mrs. Livingstone’s ear. Mrs. Livingstone suddenly stood up and looked at this person. “What did you say, that the Stewarts will no longer cooperate with us?”

The person smiled bitterly. “It’s not just the Stewarts, the Levins, the Sonnets and the Lowes have communicated their intention to cancel the collaboration. I heard it was…”

The person looked at the old woman. “It was Mr. Hunt.

The Livingstones were dishonest in their business dealings. Their prices were high and their quality was poor, but still there were many people fawning over them. Wasn’t it because they wanted to establish ties with the Hunts?

Now that Mrs. Livingstone had openly angered Justin, even if he said nothing, that group of people would revoke their cooperation.

Mrs. Livingstone was completely stunned. Suddenly she looked at Elder Mrs. Hunt and realized how much she had been mistaken.

She said incredulously, “How dare he!”.

Justin had been very respectful of Elder Mrs. Hunt since he was young. He also handled the Livingstone’s affairs very carefully, so Mrs. Livingstone had the confidence to oppose Nora publicly.

She hadn’t expected Justin to do this for Nora.

He swallowed hard and stood in front of Elder Mrs. Hunt. “Mrs. Hunt, Aunt, you can’t ignore us! If you don’t care about us, the Livingstones will go bankrupt.”

Elder Mrs. Hunt glared at her. “Don’t worry. I’ll talk to Justin later.”

She had openly provoked Ian earlier, and it had made Justin unhappy.

She had watched him grow up and knew Justin very well. He didn’t expose the truth as soon as she opened her mouth. Instead, he allowed her to slander Nora as a clown. Then, he revealed the truth only to embarrass her and teach her a lesson.

Like his grandmother, Elder Mrs. Hunt was sure Justin was a good boy who valued relationships. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so loyal to Nora.

He wouldn’t do anything to Nora, but fight with his own grandmother!

Justin was now in charge of the Hunts. If his heart abandoned her, how could he live so comfortably in the future?

Elder Mrs. Hunt wanted to wait until Justin was no longer angry. Then, she would mention these things to Justin and ease the relationship between the two families.

However, as soon as she said this, Mrs. Livingstone immediately shouted, “Aunt, Thomas is your great-nephew. We are all part of your maiden family – we are all your back-up! Isn’t our situation a joke to others? Go and fetch Mr. Hunt now! He definitely won’t refuse your request!”

When Elder Mrs. Hunt heard this, she pursed her lips instantly.

When they were outside, Mrs. Livingstone did not listen to her and insisted on going against Nora. At the time, it still seemed to her that this niece-in-law of hers was only angry and not thinking of her.

But now, she demanded that she should act so justly….

Elder Mrs. Hunt felt her heart block. The family she loved so much had always been using her!

The old woman covered her chest and said to Mrs. Livingstone. “Go away!”

Mrs. Livingstone was stunned. She looked at Elder Mrs. Hunt and saw that her expression was ugly, as if she couldn’t breathe. She was instantly frightened and dared not speak again.

However, before leaving the room, he couldn’t help but turn to look at her. Seeing her fingers trembling as she picked up the teacup and prepared to take a sip, Mrs. Livingstone threatened her, “Mrs. Hunt, the maiden family is a woman’s dignity. If the Livingstones fall, you will have no dignity left.”

Bang!

Elderly Mrs. Hunt suddenly threw the teacup in her hand to the floor and pointed to the door. “Get out!”

Only then did Mrs. Livingstone jump to her feet and leave.

When she was gone, Old Mrs. Hunt sat there panting. The butler at her side quickly pulled out a soothing pill and handed it to her.

Elderly Mrs. Hunt’s chest heaved violently and she felt that her heart was about to explode. However, after taking the medicine, she suddenly felt suddenly relieved.

She slowly lay down with the help of the butler.

After a long while, she slowly opened her cloudy eyes and sighed.

The butler asked her, “Mrs. Hunt, what do you need?”

“Nothing…”

Elderly Mrs. Hunt opened her mouth and suddenly looked at the small box with the medicine. For some reason, she suddenly stopped and said in a daze, “This medicine was made by Nora, wasn’t it?”

The butler nodded. “Yes, Miss Smith made it herself. There are only two boxes in the whole town. You have one here.”

There was also a box at the Andersons’ house.

The old woman paused and suddenly sighed heavily.

Her resentment toward Nora suddenly vanished.

When she thought about what had happened earlier, she didn’t even understand what she had done?

How had she pushed her grandson away?

He slowly closed his eyes.

Downstairs, Ian went into the VIP lounge to rest.

When it was time, Pete, Cherry and Xander held hands as they went upstairs.

Cherry stood in the center. To her left was Pete, and to her right was Xander.

Pete was wearing a gentleman’s suit and his demeanor was very proper.

Xander wore the same suit, but turned his body from side to side. He had lived in the basement since he was young and had never worn clothes the right size. It felt like his tiny self was trapped in this tiny suit.

It didn’t twist too much from left to right. The little guy was cute and looked like Justin when he was young, so he was especially cute.

Everyone downstairs was looking at him.

Pete seemed to sense something and turned to look at Xander. The corners of his mouth twitched immediately and he coughed to remind him, “Don’t squirm. It’s embarrassing.”

Xander took quite a while before he said, “…. My pants are too tight.”

Pete: “…”

As a child, he understood this kind of pain all too well. Sometimes, his clothes would squeeze him before he fixed himself. He coughed and suddenly pushed Cherry to walk in front. She followed in front of Xander and whispered, “Hurry up and fix it.”

“Okay.”

Before Cherry knew what was happening, the two kids behind her had already taken care of the problem.

When they got off, the three children looked around and found it amusing.

The others also showered the three children with praise.

However, Mrs. Livingstone’s sharp voice mixed in. “Speaking of three children, Pete is the most outstanding. After all, he’s grown up at his father’s side from a very young age. He looks like a little aristocrat. Cherry and Xander are far from his level.”
