Chapter 145 The Fall of the Yates Group


    Kwan instinctively nced behind him, wondering why Larry wasn’t there,


    Wynter smiled nonchntly, “Looking for someone?”


    Kwan put on a fake smile and said, “Wynter, there was a misunderstanding between us before.”


    “What misunderstanding?” Wynter’s l*ps curved slightly. “The one where you almost killed me, or the


    one where you forced me to leave town?”


    Amid the murmurs of the neighbors, someonemented, “Are they even acting like parents? How


    could they treat their child like this?”


    Unable to tolerate the gossiping neighbors any longer, Wanda exploded, “She’s not even our biological


    daughter! Why should we tolerate her? She’s like an annoying thorn in our side!”


    Seeing the trouble Wanda was stirring up, Ewan quickly intervened.


    “Stop it,” he said, shooting her a meaningful look as a reminder of the purpose of their visit.


    Wanda simply rolled her eyes and said, “I mean, look at her! She’s flunking her studies, can’t even


    handle a book, and now she’s flirting with older men on live streams! What on earth are we supposed


    to do with her?”


    Margaret’s blood boiled at the usation. “You’re spouting nonsense!”


    “I’m not. Isn’t she out dining with some rich businessman today?” She smirked coldly. ” Let’s be real


    here. Mom, are you really that clueless, or just pretending? Why else would a wealthy man like him


    bother with a girl like her, if not for her youth and beauty?”


    “You…” Margaret clutched her chest.


    Wynter instinctively took Margaret’s cane and gently reassured her, “Grandma, you’re getting agitated


    again. I’ve told you before, they’re not worth it.”


    Clutching Wynter’s hand tightly, Margaret replied, “I’m not concerned about them, Wynter,


    dear granddaughter. How could they speak so ill of you?”


    my


    Wynter calmly remarked, “Their hearts are tainted. They see everything through a dirty lens.


    11 Her gaze


    then shifted to Ewan. “Given that you’re Grandma’s son, I won’t harm you, but


    perhaps it’s time for the Yates Group to meet its end.”


    Under Wynter’s prating gaze, Ewan felt a chill run down his spine, leaving his hands and legs as


    cold as ice.


    Wanda scoffed, “Who do you think you are? Do you think you can just bankrupt the Yates Group with a


    few words?”


    Wynter subtly lifted her eyes and responded, “Try me.”


    Wanda gritted her teeth, hating the fact that this brat dared to mention bankrupting the Yates Group.


    “And you im you have no connection with Mr. Hilton? If it’s not him giving you confidence, how dare


    a brat like you be so arrogant?” Wanda’s tone grew more aggressive.” Do you think sleeping with an


    older man will bring us down? You-”


    “Smack!” Wynter delivered a firm p across Wanda’s face. She smiled beautifully and sneered, “So


    what?”


    Wanda froze, then clutched her throbbing face. Her eyes widened in shock as she yelled, How dare


    you! You’re just an insolent country girl! I’ll take


    your life!”


    Wynter struck again with another beautifully executed p, her eyes indifferent as she remarked,


    “You’re really annoying.”


    Wanda’s hair flew loose from the force of the p. Shouting like a madwoman, she used, “After


    cozying up to Mr. Hilton, you’ve got some nerve! I’ve underestimated you! Ewan, why are you just


    standing there? Hit her back!”


    Wynter smirked.

    Ewan was about to raise his hand, but before he could, he was kicked over.


    Ewan winced in pain as he crumpled to the ground. He waspletely immobilized.
