Granduncle Danie, who was even older, coughed and said, "Well, stop pushing Jill. We're all family. Why so tit-for-tat?"
He looked at Juliana and asked, "Jill, have you eaten yet?"
Juliana looked at Granduncle Danie, who was still in good spirits in his 90's and looked very kind and benevolent.
Juliana didn't have much impression of him and assumed he was neither good nor bad.
Juliana replied indifferently, "I've eaten. I'm here to get the share transfer letter and I'll leave as soon as I get it."
At the mention of the share transfer letter, several elders looked unpleasant.
Even Granduncle Danie's kind and benevolent smile was frozen.
Miriam shouted shrilly, "Uncle Danie, I have told my brother not to marry Sury because she would have ruined our family."
"Now you see, she's been dead for over a decade and we still have to share the family fortune with her daughter."
Granduncle Danie glared at her and said, "Watch Your Mouth!"
Juliana raised her eyes and looked at Miriam, "If my memory is not at fault, the wealth that the Lewis family has today is the result of my mother's efforts. After my mother died, you divided her property and called her daughter a money-loser. Is this your upbringing?"
Miriam straightened up her neck and spoke more sharply and confidently, "What do you mean your mother's efforts? That was my brother's efforts and had nothing to do with your mother! She is an orphan. What could she have done? Has she slept with others for..."
Before Miriam could even finish her words, she received a heavy slap on the face.
The slap was so loud that everyone was shocked.
Juliana looked at Miriam coldly, "The tongue talk at the head's cost. If I hear you insult my mother again, I'll smash your face."
Juliana looked at Miriam coldly, "The tongue talk at the head's cost. If I hear you insult my mother again, I'll smash your face."
Miriam was hit so hard that her face was numb and her ears were ringing.
It showed how hard Juliana slapped her.
Suzanne was gloating over the conflict between the two.
She said hurriedly, "Miriam, don't be angry with Jill. After all, her mother..."
Miriam pushed Suzanne away, "You don't have to pretend to be nice! You're just a stepmother and you won't get a single benefit from protecting this loser!"
After yelling, she looked up at Juliana angrily, "If you don't want me to say it, you should have told your mother not to sleep around... Ah!"
Not waiting for her to finish, Juliana slapped her hard again.
This time, Miriam was slapped and fell to the ground, and blood came out of the corner of her mouth.
Juliana looked at her coldly, "Keep talking."
If Miriam said one more word, Juliana would tear her mouth open!
The skin on Miriam's mouth had broken and blood was dripping from the corners of her mouth. Her ears were ringing and she felt like she was going to be deaf.
She looked up at Juliana, whose stern look made her too afraid to speak anymore.
She simply sat on the floor, banging the floor with her hands, kicking her legs, and crying out.
"Oh, God! The niece hit her aunt! Sury, this is your good daughter! She hit her aunt today and will hit her father tomorrow! How nasty!"
She sat on the floor crying and screaming like a virago.
Juliana took a look at her and saw the maid bring up the juice. She took a glass of juice and splashed it directly at Miriam's face.
Miriam was shouting when she was splashed. She choked and coughed incessantly.
Juliana said to the maid, "Get a bucket of water."
The maid looked at Suzanne and saw her nod, so she answered and went away.
Miriam stopped coughing and stared up at Juliana, "What do you want?"
