Emily Allen scread, "How could you do this? Is this how a daughter should act?"
"Then what should I do?"
Charlotte Thompson cast a glance their way. "Or are you suggesting that I should cough up millions to support you?"
Sure enough, a glint of light flashed through their eyes at the ntion of money.
"Charlotte, you know the Allen family is really struggling right now. Dad doesn’t expect you to co back to the Allens, he just hopes you can help him out a bit."
Ethan Allen rubbed his palms together, his greedy face barely managing to muster a smile.
Indeed, after all this ti of moral blackmail, they finally showed their true colors.
"The troubles of the Allen family are the fruits of your own actions, and they have nothing to do with ." Charlotte didn’t want to waste any more words and turned to leave.
Seeing Charlotte so indifferent, Ethan Allen imdiately sat on the ground and started to make a scene.
"Charlotte, how can you be so heartless? The Thompson family took care of you, supported you, and now that you’ve made it, you refuse to recognize your own father, feeling ashad by him!"
Mia Stewart also started wailing next to Ethan Allen, her loud cries resembling those of a fishwife.
Charlotte was annoyed by these people, and her last bit of patience was worn thin.
Just then, Justin Battleson’s voice ca from behind Charlotte.
He stretched out his hand to hold Charlotte in his arms and looked at the Allens with a dark expression.
He had just finished a eting when his assistant told him that the Allen family was causing trouble, so he ca over imdiately.
And he indeed, saw the scene before him.
"Who let them in?"
Justin swept his gaze around. The security guard, who had been at the door and was now full of regret, hurriedly approached Justin.
"Mr. Battleson, I’m really sorry... they said they were Miss Thompson’s relatives, so I let them wait in the lobby..."
The security guard’s voice grew weaker as he spoke, and he began to resent the householders.
If he lost his job over this, what would he do?
As soon as Emily Allen saw Justin arrive, her eyes widened. She couldn’t help but step forward, feigning a delicate tone, "Mr. Battleson, we just wanted to co and see my sister..."
Now that Charlotte was so defiant, it wasn’t just because of the Thompson family supporting her, but Justin Battleson was protecting her too. If she could win Justin Battleson’s favor...
Yet, Emily didn’t think her idea was absurd at all, even sowhat eagerly thinking about latching onto Justin’s arm.
However, Justin didn’t even spare her a glance and directly spoke to his assistant behind him,
"Throw them out, and never let them in again."
The assistant responded and imdiately went to do so.
The Allen family mbers didn’t expect Justin to actually take such action, after all, although Charlotte seed impatient, she never actually kicked them out herself.
But Justin did not give them the slightest face.
"Justin Battleson, you..."
Ethan wanted to argue sothing, but Michael Richard couldn’t care less to listen to his nonsense. He even pulled aside a newspaper and stuffed it into Ethan’s mouth, forcefully making him shut up.
The Allens were unceremoniously thrown out of the company, becoming the laughingstock of others.
"It’s okay now," Justin said, looking down at Charlotte whose complexion didn’t look good, and said softly.
Charlotte remained silent.
She wasn’t afraid of today’s events, just a little weary at heart.
"I’ll handle this," he said.
Hearing his words, Charlotte pressed down on Justin’s arm and shook her head at him.
"What’s wrong?" Justin’s brow furrowed slightly.
"Forget it, why waste ti on those people?" Charlotte wasn’t being soft-hearted, but rather felt it unnecessary.
The Allen family mbers weren’t worth Justin Battleson’s trouble.
Besides, after today’s lesson, she thought they wouldn’t bother her anymore.
However, Charlotte underestimated the Allen family’s vileness.
