Chapter 116
Hearing this, the faces of Lillian and Spencer darkened. Lillian felt like she was being
roasted over an open flame, the heat unbearable. Her hand, hanging limply at her side,
suddenly clenched, her nails digging into her palm.
That bitch, she had the audacity to insinuate things about her in front of the director.
And the director, he always favored Brielle. Lillian regretted splurging on all those gifts for
nothing. Was he blind? Couldn’t he see that Brielle hadn’t brought anything? And yet he
still sided with her?
Taking a deep breath, Lillian maintained a perfect smile on her face. “Mark, these are two
bodyguards I’ve hired for you, so that what happened tonight won’t happen again,” she
said.
Mark nodded. “That’s very thoughtful of you, Lillian.”
Sensing the conversation finally shift to herself, Lillian quickly gestured towards the items
on the table. “These are for the kids. I was in a rush this time and didn’t bring much, but
I’ll have someone deliver more when I get back.”
After speaking, she turned to Spencer and playfully grabbed his sleeve, “Spencer, what do
you say?”
Spencer reflexively glanced at Brielle, knowing she had long seen through his relationship

open.
He couldn’t quite understand his own feelings; on one hand, he wanted to crush Brielle, on
the other, he toyed with the idea that if Brielle showed him any sign of weakness with her
eyes, he wouldn’t be opposed to playing along.
Brielle wasn’t looking at him. Instead, she was helping Mark unpack the items on the
table. She adeptly tore open the packaging and started categorizing the items.
He felt a surge of irritation, “Brielle, you came to visit Mark and didn’t think to bring
anything? What’s with the sudden eagerness?”
Brielle paused, thinking Spencer could really be emotionally dim at times. She smiled,
“The Haywood family raised Lillian for years, and I introduced you to her. Her money is
essentially mine. That bracelet on her wrist? My brother spent a million on it. Why, can’t I
help unwrap a few thousand dollars‘ worth of gifts?”
Spencer darkened as he glanced at the bracelet on Lillian’s wrist. Lillian awkwardly tried to
hide the bracelet, but it only made her look more conspicuous.
Brielle had no intention of letting them off easy, especially since Spencer had been the
one to make the nasty comment first. “Besides, the villa Lillian is living in now, don’t
forget that was a gift from Uncle Max to me. I told her to move out within three days, but
she didn’t comply. You

just reminded me, tonight I’ll contact an agent to sell the house. Make sure the property is
legally transferred to my name, otherwise, I’ll have to go to Uncle Max for an explanation.”
Spencer was just venting his frustration, but Brielle had left him speechless with her
retorts. Even Lillian felt the awkwardness.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLillian hadn’t realized that the villa was a gift from Max to Brielle. When Brielle asked her
to move out, she found it ridiculous; after all, Spencer had bought it for her, what right did
Brielle have to kick her out?
Lillian’s face turned pale. Why would Max give Brielle such an extravagant gift? That villa
was worth over twenty million, more than most people make in a lifetime.
Lillian’s chest heaved as she glared at Spencer, realizing he didn’t refute Brielle’s claims–it
must be true. Resentment flickered in her eyes. Why did people still help Brielle? Wasn’t
her promiscuity well known in their circle?
Her lips trembled, and she couldn’t meet Mark’s gaze.
Mark stopped unwrapping the gifts, his irritation evident as he stared at Spencer,
“Spencer, your words were too harsh. I’m happy as long as Brielle is willing to visit me.
And the orphanage has been receiving anonymous donations for years now, so we’re no
longer as destitute as before. The children are well–fed and warm. Plus, it was Brielle who
took Lillian away back then, and seeing her thrive now, she should be grateful. As her
boyfriend, how could you speak to Brielle like that?”
