“What new son-in-law?”
“Mom, what nonsense are you talking about?”
Dorothy, who was wearing a business attire, got out of the car as well. Sharpay, who
dressed up glamorously, was incomparable with her ethereal beauty and elegance in
that instant.
Even her boyfriend, Edison, stared at Dorothy with eyes filled with immense adoration
and envy.
Claire ecstatically thought that Dorothy had finally dumped Alex and found herself a rich
son-in-law. However, seeing Alex whom she knew very well, Claire was extremely
disappointed.
“Dorothy, wasn’t there a rich heir who picked you up in a Lamborghini? How did it turn
out to be this trash here?” Claire huffed angrily.
“What rich heir?
It’s Alex who picked me up. Mom, I’m married, please don’t say such
nonsense,” Dorothy said as she glared at Beatrice. She knew that Beatrice was added
into the office group chat. Hence, she was the only one here who could know about this.
Just then, Adrianna walked up to them with a smile. “Oh, so it’s really Alex Rockefeller.
Didn’t you just say that they’ve already divorced?
Why do they suddenly get back
together? Where did the real rich heir go? This down-and-out loser is worse than a
common folk, it looks like you just have to put up with him!”
With that, she then touched the Lamborghini. “A fifteen-million-dollar luxurious car? Can
you even afford this? You probably rented it, right?
Why do you even put on an act? Is
there any point to bite off more than you can chew?”
Dorothy froze. “Who got a divorce? I didn’t.”
Sharpay replied, “But your mom just told us that.”
In that instant, both Dorothy and Alex could not help feeling helpless as they were bereft
of speech.
However, Claire asked, “Dorothy, where did this Lamborghini come from? Could it be
that you bought it just now after your company earned a lot of profit?”
She tried getting back at Adrianna for once.
Dorothy shook her head. “ No, Alex borrowed it from a friend.”
“Hahahaha!
” Adrianna cackled. “I actually thought you guys have become rich. Looks
like this was all just a big bluff! Yeah, sure, the car is amazing, but it’s even not yours!
What good would it do for you? I’d rather get in my son-in-law’s Ferrari than a borrowed
car.”
Taylor added. “I was in quite a shock too! Turns out it was just a lie, to think you acted
as if it were true! How vain!”
After being insulted by both her sister and brother-in-law, Claire was clearly frustrated
and annoyed. She swung her hand toward Alex’s face as she yelled, “You trash! You
useless trash! Who invited you here? Who told you to borrow a car? Do you really think
you deserve to drive a Lamborghini? Can you even pay for the expenses if you were to
break it? Get lost! Get lost right now!”
Alex leaned back slightly and dodged her slap.
However, Claire had used too much force, causing her to almost slip and fall. As she got
even more enraged, she took one of her heels off and threw it hard at Alex.
Alex was worried that Dorothy, who was right behind him, might get hit. Hence, he
decided not to dodge and took the hit.
Dorothy said angrily, “Mom, what is wrong with you? So what if Alex borrowed the car?
Have you not embarrassed yourself enough?”
Claire yelled back, “I’m only embarrassed because of this useless trash! Look at
Sharpay’s boyfriend, and now look at him! He’s no better than dog sh*t on the roadside.”
Alex’s expression darkened as he was about to snap.
Suddenly, an old man walked out. “What’s with the ruckus?
Haven’t you embarrassed
yourself enough? Are you here to celebrate my birthday, or to piss me off?”
The man was Aidan Bardot.
In that instant, Claire dared not say another word.
Both Dorothy and Beatrice greeted him, Alex did so as well. However, the old man didn’t
even take a glance at him. On the contrary, he warmly welcomed Edison, Sharpay’s
boyfriend.
The contrast in his attitude was too obvious.
Dorothy clinged to Alex’s arm, comforting him. After secretly giving him a gentle kiss,
only then did Alex suppress his anger and calm himself down.
At the same time, Brittany, Waltz and Maya were on their way to Aidan’s birthday
banquet too.
