"Okay, I’m waiting for you." May Morgan nodded obediently, truly sitting on the bed, looking very well-behaved as she bid farewell to Vincent Vance.
Vincent Vance looked at her deanor and couldn’t help but smile with relief. After giving her a few more words of advice, he finally turned around and left.
As soon as Vincent Vance walked out, May Morgan lost interest in her comic book. She quickly got up from the bed and hurried to the window to look outside.
From her angle, she could see all the movents in the villa. Within a few minutes, she saw Vincent Vance drive away, and it seed there were two bodyguards in the car.
May Morgan always felt that Vincent Vance bringing just two bodyguards was insufficient. After all, these bodyguards weren’t Jacob Jennings; Jacob Jennings could fight ten alone, but these people couldn’t. What if they encountered soone from the old man’s side halfway?
But she already promised Vincent Vance she would wait at ho. Would going out now make Vincent Vance angry?
Forget it, didn’t Vincent Vance promise to video call? Let’s see how things are going over there first.
As soon as Vincent Vance left, May Morgan imdiately called him and asked him to video call.
Zenith Villa is more than half an hour’s drive from the Morgan Family. Vincent Vance a bit helplessly said to May Morgan, "If I start the video call this early, don’t bla if my phone runs out of battery later."
This trick worked quite well; May Morgan was rendered speechless and had no choice but to compromise, "Then open the video call as soon as you reach the Morgan Family. I need to see how you’re going to catch lanie."
Vincent Vance sighed again with helplessness and agreed, "Okay, okay, I’ll start the video call later, alright?"
After hanging up the phone, May Morgan began to seriously sit on the bed and calculate the ti. Suddenly, she felt anxious as soon as Vincent Vance left, like sothing was going to happen tonight.
Finally, after enduring a half-hour, May Morgan eagerly phoned Vincent Vance again and asked him to start the video call.
Vincent Vance’s car just arrived at the Morgan Family mansion, negotiating with the two people sent there before. These two hadn’t been there long, so they weren’t very familiar with the situation, but they didn’t see anyone coming out from inside.
Vincent Vance first stood at the Morgan Family gate, pondering over the brightly lit windows inside for a mont before instructing his subordinate, "Go knock on the door."
"Yes!" One of them quickly ran over to press the doorbell on the Morgan Family’s gate.
Soon, a voice from the yard ca, "Who is it?"
Vincent Vance heard this and quickly walked over, calling out to the housekeeper, "It’s , Vincent Vance."
"Oh, the son-in-law is back? Please co in, please co in!" The housekeeper, hearing Vincent Vance was there, hurriedly and joyously ca over to open the gate and politely invited him in.
Just as Vincent Vance was about to go inside, May Morgan’s call ca through. He frowned and didn’t choose to do the video call but instead sent a quick text to May Morgan while he walked through following the housekeeper: "I’m already at your house, I’ll video call you later, wait for my ssage."
The implication of this was to remind May Morgan not to keep calling; he would naturally initiate the video call when it was ti.
Seeing him break his promise, May Morgan angrily threw her phone away. What kind of person is this, agreeing so well but changing his tune as soon as he left. Hmph, just wait, when I get back, I’ll teach you a lesson!
As Vincent Vance followed the housekeeper inside the villa, lody White was sitting on the sofa, applying dicine to her swollen face. Seeing Vincent Vance suddenly arrive, she quickly stood up from the sofa in surprise.
"Eldest Master Vance... why did you co so late?" lody White was having difficulty speaking and hurriedly greeted Vincent Vance.
Vincent Vance glanced at her still severely swollen face, giving her a polite smile that didn’t reach his eyes, "I heard from my bodyguards that you were beaten pretty badly, so I thought I’d co over and check how you’re doing."
After speaking, Vincent Vance intentionally glanced over at lody White’s face and then politely apologized to her, "May Morgan at ho is really insensible. No matter what, you are her aunt and an elder; she shouldn’t have hit you. But rest assured, I’ve taught her harshly at ho, she won’t do it again."
lody White was speechless, moved her lips slightly, not knowing what to say. Teach a lesson and that’s it? Her face was beaten to this extent? Just a few words to fob her off?
But although she was dissatisfied, she couldn’t afford to offend Vincent Vance. Don’t ntion that she had no power or influence now, even if she did, she wouldn’t stand a chance against Vincent Vance.
May Morgan was just relying on Vincent Vance’s support; otherwise, how would she dare to be so arrogant?
"Eldest Master Vance, you’re too kind. I was wrong and upset May Morgan; she should have hit ." Besides conceding, lody White had no better option, so she swallowed her pride along with her grievances.
Vincent Vance gave a polite smile and deliberately engaged lody White, "Honestly speaking, if not for May Morgan, maybe lanie and I would have been family. May Morgan, after all, is too young and not as mature as lanie."
Upon hearing this, lody White’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Vincent Vance, wanting to devour him, "Eldest Master Vance also thinks that wild girl May Morgan isn’t good, right? Yes, our lanie graduated from a prestigious university, is considerate, and educated, nothing like that wild girl May Morgan from the mountains, ignorant of rules, relying solely on her looks to flaunt herself, or else, how could she possibly beco the Vance Family’s eldest daughter-in-law?"
Listening to lody White’s complaints, Vincent Vance’s lips moved slightly, casually throwing her an olive branch.
"Being the eldest daughter-in-law is just a title; whoever wants it is just a matter of my words."
"Oh, Eldest Master Vance, I like hearing that. That’s right, you are the head of the Vance Family; your wife should naturally be decided by you. Nowadays, divorces are easy, just one word and a piece of paper; whoever disobeys, you divorce them and see if they dare to be arrogant."
The reason Vincent Vance intentionally verbalized these things to lody White was to spur her greed, to make her voluntarily bring lanie out. And of course, this was why he didn’t dare to video call May Morgan.
If May Morgan knew he spoke badly of her in order to lure lanie out and even said he would divorce her, he would not only be kneeling on durian when he returned but also on a spiked board.
"Mrs. Morgan, you really speak wisely. My marriage, my wife naturally has to be chosen to my satisfaction. May Morgan, after all, ca from the mountains, many tis, she disappoints people greatly. Honestly, if she wasn’t the true holder of the Jade Pendant, I would have divorced her long ago."
