Chapter 385

James could see through everything. Lauren’s cousins who married into the family were from poor backgrounds.

Only the partners of the women who were married off came from prominent families.

Harrison was considered one of the outstanding ones among the Mares’ sons-in-law.

This gave Harrison the courage to stand up against the others.

“Harrison… watch your words. You’re in the Mares’ property now, not the Lewises’!”

A middle-aged man with an ashen complexion said in a deep voice.

It was Lauren’s eldest brother, Leonard.

“Uncle Leonard… I think that Uncle Harrison has a point. Aunt Lauren finally returned. It’s fine that no one showed

her any hospitality. However, everyone dares to verbally target her. If word gets out, aren’t you just giving people a

reason to laugh at us?”

Yvonne pouted as she defended her aunt.

Leonard’s wife, Minerva, said coldly, “The adults are talking. Why is a brat like you speaking?”

James snorted. “The Mares are talking. Why are you speaking?”

Minerva used to work in a foot massage parlor.

Leonard had a drunken one-night stand with Minerva and got her pregnant.

To prevent anyone from gossiping, he had no choice but to marry her.

Old Mare disliked Minerva the most.

She was the last one who would have a say among the Mares.

“I’m Leonard’s wife. My name is on our marriage certificate. How am I not part of the family?

“You, on the other hand… You were just adopted by Old Mare. You’re not related by blood or anything! What gives

you the right to criticize me?”

Minerva snapped as she crossed her arms.

James sneered, “Leonard… do you share the same sentiment?”

Leonard gulped.

At the end of the day, he had to recognize James as his brother.

He knew James’ temper very well. If Leonard dared to anger James, he would be taught a valuable lesson.

“That’s enough, Minerva… Keep quiet!”

Leonard did not want to dwell on this topic anymore, so he said with a smile, “Dr. Tanner cured Old Mare’s illness.

We should be happy! I’ve made a reservation at Oste Capiton Hotel to celebrate his recovery and give Liam and

Lauren a warm welcome!”

“I’m glad that the old man is fine, but we won’t disturb your family reunion!” One of Leonard’s cousins said and left

with his family.

“We’re leaving too. If anything happens, remember to call us!” another middle-aged man said.

Not long after, Zeke’s children were the only ones left in the villa.

James then stared coldly at Leonard. “Lincoln is stuck abroad, and Liam isn’t married yet, so… it’ll be hard for him

to gain a foothold in the family. After Lauren got married, she lost her right.

“They don’t have any shares in their hands. Within your father’s lineage, you’re the only one who holds 5% of the

shares, so you’re the only one who gets a say. Do you really believe that you can handle the other three lineages by

yourself?”

Zeke had three brothers. Each brother owned 20% of the Mares’ shares, and the remaining 20 % was held by the

shareholders.
