Charlotte Sterling, like an obedient robot, immediately rushed forward and forcefully pushed her away—
"Are you crazy or what! Put the knife down! Don’t you want your father’s belongings anymore!"
Iris Lockwood was so scared that her hands trembled, shrinking behind Charlotte Sterling.
Evelyn Clayton glared past Charlotte Sterling, giving her a fright.
For a long while, Evelyn Clayton took a deep breath, barely suppressing the fury in her heart.
If it weren’t for the fear that Iris Lockwood’s trembling hands would actually smash her father’s relics, she would have slaughtered this bitch right now!
She tried hard to suppress her anger, "Fine, I can try to persuade Uncle Grant, but you, Matthew Sullivan, solve it yourself! If you can’t even handle a man, then you’re a failure yourself. Forget about dreaming of being part of a prestigious family! Once this is over, you have to return the watch to me!"
Seeing her agree, Iris Lockwood’s eyes immediately lit up, and a hint of malice flashed in her eyes.
When everything is settled, she’ll smash this lousy watch to pieces!
Consider it a proper revenge for today’s humiliation.
Evelyn Clayton seemed to see through Iris Lockwood’s intentions and said coldly, "I warn you, if you dare to destroy my father’s belongings, I’ll scar your face so badly you won’t get married for life!"
Evelyn Clayton’s gaze was fierce like a wolf’s, causing Iris Lockwood to nervously swallow.
She knew Evelyn Clayton wasn’t joking! This update is available on Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
Iris Lockwood didn’t dare speak, only hiding behind Philip Lockwood.
Evelyn Clayton didn’t want to stay in the Lockwood Family for a moment longer and directly threw the fruit knife to the ground.
With a "clang," the other three in the room were startled and terrified.
"Now you know fear? You’ve done too many shameful things; the real fear is yet to come."
Evelyn Clayton gave them one last sinister look and turned to leave.
"Shameless, utterly shameless!"
Yara Reagan slammed the table heavily in anger after hearing the whole story.
Earlier, Evelyn Clayton had taken a call and left, making Yara Reagan feel uneasy.
When she returned, Yara delved into details and discovered the heinous acts of the Lockwood Family.
"Do they have no shame left? Using your father’s relics to threaten you! It makes me furious!"
"The Lockwood Family is all the same type. Besides, I want to break off the engagement with Matthew Sullivan anyway, so it’s convenient. Besides, the Grant Family is a dog-eat-dog place; it won’t be that easy for Iris Lockwood to get in," Evelyn Clayton sneered with disdain.
Just dealing with James Grant’s stepmother alone would be enough for Iris Lockwood to choke on!
Yara Reagan glanced at Evelyn Clayton’s expression, cautiously and hesitantly.
"Evelyn, I think your father’s death... might be related to the Grant Family. I heard at a gathering before that the Grant Family was searching for a suitable heart back then. Your father was very close with the Grant Family during that time, and not long after, he had a car accident. Just before the accident, he signed an organ donation agreement. Don’t you think it’s too coincidental?"
Evelyn Clayton furrowed her delicate brows slightly.
From the moment she learned of this engagement, it felt strange why Harrison Grant insisted on her getting engaged to Matthew Sullivan?
The kids from both families were so young at the time, what could they possibly understand?
If Yara Reagan’s information is true, then Harrison Grant’s actions towards her are either repayment or guilt.
She suddenly stood up.
"What are you going to do?" Yara Reagan was startled.
"I’m heading to the Grant Family again!" Evelyn Clayton said with a determined look, "If I spell things out so clearly and Harrison Grant still insists on the engagement, then there’s definitely something fishy about my father’s death!"
"Then be careful; Harrison Grant is not a simple character; he is not easy to fool!" Yara Reagan advised with concern.
