"Oh, if she is willing to give her a chance now, why couldn't she give me a chance back then? Just because I am a daughter, why did she force me to marry a man I didn't like at all at the age of seventeen? Then she could just throw it away like an item. Give it to anyone you want to curry favor with? Then throw it into the ditch without any use, without even looking at it again?"
At this moment, Aurora, who had been silent and said nothing, suddenly stood up, looked at Jeffrey who had already walked to the door, and said hoarsely!
Jeffrey stopped, looked back at Aurora, frowned slightly, and said coldly: "Do you still feel like a human being now?"
"Aurora, stop talking..." Mrs. Denise said softly anxiously.
"Yes! I'm not a human being. I'm neither human nor ghost now. I don't deserve to be called a member of the Morton family..." Aurora's smile was a bit sarcastic, and she punched her chest with only bones left, her eyes Looking at Jeffrey without any evasion, "But isn't this all thanks to you, my father? When you married me to that drunkard Liszt, did you ever think about your daughter? What kind of pain and torture did you go through every night? What kind of bad habits was he forced to learn?"
"You know, you have known for a long time that he has all the bad habits that you hate. It was you who turned your daughter into what you hate. It was you who kicked me into the fire pit and made me become like this. You look like neither a human nor a ghost, and now you are standing by the fire pit and laughing at me... Doesn't your conscience hurt?" Aurora's bloodshot eyes stared at Jeffrey ferociously. It looks a little scary.
Jeffrey's brows furrowed deeper, but his expression remained calm as he said, "Anything you are contaminated with is your own choice and has nothing to do with me."
"What does it have to do with you? Ha... Sure enough, you haven't changed at all after so many years. Women are just an object that can be used by you. There is still no equality or exception." Aurora laughed. He smiled, pointed a finger at Gloria, and said mockingly: "And she is just a whetstone for you to hone your unfulfilled son, no matter what kind of qualities she has Ability and talent, from the moment she was born, she was destined not to be the heir of the Moulton family, because she is a woman! A woman!!!"
Aurora's face was full of madness, ferocious veins covered her prematurely aging face, her hands were like chicken feet, with almost only bones left, and her eyes were covered with red bloodshot eyes.
The hall became a little quiet. Mrs. Denise hesitated to speak, but finally did not dare to come forward.
Jeffrey looked into Aurora's eyes and was silent for a while, then ordered: "She has gone crazy, take her down."
The housekeeper standing at the door hesitated for a moment and waved to the door. The two servants quickly walked in and walked out the door holding Aurora.
"You killed your daughter! You killed your daughter!" Aurora yelled a little crazily. When she got to Gloria, she suddenly leaned over to her and said with a bitter smile: "Don't believe it. Him! He is a liar! He will never let a woman become the one in power! Otherwise, my fate will be your fate..."
Aurora's voice disappeared outside the door, the hall returned to calm, and everyone's expressions also experienced some subtle changes.
The light in Cyril's eyes lit up again, and although it soon went dormant again, the depression on his face had been wiped away.
Gloria's brows furrowed slightly, then slowly relaxed, her expression remained calm, and she did not seem to be greatly affected.
Jeffrey looked at the two of them and said with a somewhat serious expression: "Everything you do this year will be recorded in a book, just like today's account book. The difference between good and bad lies in what you do and what is finally shown on the bill. What I want to do is to announce the final result, and there will be four sixteen-member review teams to supervise you during this process, both in the light and in the dark, so don’t try to do anything or be clever."
Cyril looked solemn, and suddenly felt a little unsure.
Gloria nodded slightly, thoughtfully.
Jeffrey turned and walked toward the door. The housekeeper and the two accounting gentlemen put away their account books, followed Jeffrey out the door with their wooden boxes in their arms, and quickly disappeared at the door.
"Sister, you are so awesome!"
Mickey was the first to rush forward, looking at Gloria with admiration. He felt that his sister seemed to have turned into another person, a super powerful person.
Lance and Debra looked at Gloria with relief, the pride and smiles on their faces could not be concealed.
"Hmph, a woman wants to inherit the Morton family. I won't let this happen. Only Cyril is qualified to inherit this family." Mrs. Dennis snorted coldly and walked out the door. .
Cyril looked at Gloria and said coldly: "Today, one year later, you will not have such good luck. I will let you know who is the real successor of the Morton family, and that At some point, you will be kicked out."
Gloria said calmly: "From today on, Dailan will become my personal property. If you lose in one year, I hope you have something to take away."
"Humph!" Cyril snorted angrily, turned around and walked quickly towards the door.
Hetty took a step forward, looked at Gloria and said angrily: "You have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. I think you'd better look better if you covered your face with gauze. You're so ugly!"
"If you don't squat in the well and look at people, maybe your vision will be closer to people." Gloria's eyes swept over Hetty, "At least you won't just pile a bunch of shiny things on your body and wear them. come out."
"you!"
Hetty and Henie both changed their colors. They took a look at the various gems and sequins hanging on their bodies, and their faces turned red.
Gloria continued: "Also, pay attention to your words. According to the clan rules, you will be punished for what you just said."
Hetty and Henie swallowed the words that were on their lips. If Gloria had said this to them a month ago, they could continue to laugh at her wantonly, because she was just a person who was despised by everyone. A poor woman who doesn't even dare to show her face.
But Gloria is different now. She has taken over all the fabric industry of the Moulton family, and is about to become a director of the Aden Chamber of Commerce. She is already in the same position as Cyril.
"snort!"
The two snorted coldly and left angrily.
…
"Hmm - this rich aroma is just right and makes people want to stop."
In the kitchen, Mag opened the lid of the brine jar and took a deep sniff, looking intoxicated.
"Ding! The host's metamorphosis level has skyrocketed, triggering a hidden task in the system - please capture a red-crested duck within 48 hours! Location: Wind Forest, Wadinger Lake, Red-crested Duck Breeding Base!"
At this moment, the system's voice sounded.
