The matter had been resolved, and Austin had not come to the country.
lan was very satisfied.It was rare that he did not have a bad expression of Justin.
Justin went upstairs and gently placed Nora on the bed.
Then, he heard the commotion downstairs.His brows drew together tightly.He went out and looked
downstairs.He realized that it was Sue.
At this moment, she was pointing at Tanya.
“Tanya, your status is so awkward now! Your father killed a person and even killed a policeman! He’s
simply too lawless!”
Tanya rolled her eyes and ignored her.
However, just as she was about to go upstairs, Sue said, “You’re now the mistress of our family.It’s too
embarrassing to have a murderer as a father! Look, so many invitation letters have been sent to my
house.No one dares to invite you.Therefore, Joel, don’t you think I should be the one appearing as the
mistress of the Smiths?”
Many people wanted to curry favor with the Smiths to do business.
As the mistress, she could get many gifts from them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBeing the mistress of the Smiths was a very glorious thing.Sue was using Tanya’s bad reputation to vie
for this position! She really courted death every day.
Joel lowered his eyes.
“I won’t trouble you with that kind of thing.”
“How is it trouble? I’m also a member of the Smiths.Besides, Tanya’s status is too awkward now, and
she’s not suitable to appear in public.Isn’t it my responsibility then?”
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, a police car stopped outside the villa with a screech.
The Smith manor was still some distance away from the gates.
Thus, when the police car stopped, the security guard hurriedly popped his head out the window and
was badly frightened.
“Are they here to arrest someone again?”

Just as he was about to speak, the car window rolled down, revealing Karl’s face.He asked, “Is Tanya at
home?”
The butler was taken aback.
Tanya watched the two of them.
Joel had always been a wily little fox.
Even if he was obviously unhappy about something, he would still keep a smile on his face.He
maintained a smiley disposition all year round and then decimated his enemies behind their backs.He
seldom got angry on the surface back then.
But he was actually starting to get physical now.It must be because what Sue was about to say had
something to do with her.
As soon as the thought formed, Sue said, “Joel, don’t push me.Isn’t it for the sake of letting the Smiths
profit that I’m here to talk about the project today? Are you going to deprive the Smiths of such huge
profits just to protect your wife?”
Sue rushed up to Tanya and said, “Do you know? There is a big project in New York that all the
companies are bidding for right now.The Smiths could have easily fought for it; it’s all because of you that
we have let this project slip by us!”
Tanya frowned and looked at Joel.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoel’s voice became even colder.
“Grandaunt Sue, don’t force me into taking action against you!”
Sue, however, lifted her chin and said, “Then why don’t you do it? But before you do, I still have to make
this clear!”
She looked straight at Tanya and said, “This huge project was to build a courthouse on a plot of land in
the suburbs! And since this building is so special, they require an engineering team with a crystal clear
track record with the law! The Smiths have indeed never broken the law before even after being in
business for so many years! But we now have a daughter-in-law with a murderer for a father! You’ve
utterly ruined the Smiths’ reputation! We can’t bid on the project anymore just because of you!”
Tanya bit her lip when she heard this.
As for Joel, he immediately shouted, “Where’s the housekeeper?!”
Lucy entered the room and said, “I’m here.”
“Show Grandaunt Sue out!”
“Yes, sit’ Lucy took a step forward as she spoke.
She grabbed Sue’s hand right away and started to drag her toward the door.
