One Night Surprise

Chapter 448 I’m Still His Mother No Matter What

Outside the ring of people, two figures—one tall and one short—stood upright.

The young man’s clear voice penetrated the whispering sounds, carrying with it an undisguisable rage.

“What’s your daughter’s relationship with President Duncan? Who gave you the right to interfere in his personal affairs?”

Immediately, the crowd was startled as the scene fell into complete silence.

Courtney was also stunned by the voice, so she blankly turned her head to look at the approaching person.

The crowd automatically stepped aside to make a path. With a steady pace, a boy walked to the door of the lounge and glared at the woman with eyes as cold as Alexander’s.

“Oh—Little Master is here.” Based on Mrs. Yves tone, she obviously wasn’t taking Jordan seriously. “This is between us adults, so a kid like you should stay out of it. I am helping your dad to take care of the people around him who don’t know their actual worth. It’s not something a kid like you should hear.” After that, she looked at the assistant behind Jordan and said, “Take him away quickly. A kid like him should stay at home, so why do you allow him to stay in the company all day long?”

With an indifferent expression, Jordan’s assistant, Kate, replied, “Mrs. Yves, Young President Duncan has shares in the company. Even though he is not yet an adult, President Duncan requested for him to stay in the company so that he can adapt to the company’s management. Where do you want me to take him? If you are already that desperate to drive him away when Miss Yves hasn’t even married President Duncan, I can’t imagine what will happen to our Young President Duncan if the two of them actually get married.”

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Mrs. Yves instantly flushed as she countered, “I never said those words. How dare you speak to me like that? You are just an assistant!”

Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, the secretary who brought Mrs. Yves into the lounge couldn’t help but tug at the older woman’s sleeve and whisper, “She isn’t an ordinary assistant. She is Little Master’s aunt.”

“So what?” Mrs. Yves grunted coldly. “His own mother has already abandoned him, so I don’t care if his assistant is actually his aunt. At such a young age, a child should be studying in school and not hanging around with adults. Otherwise, he’ll end up being used by someone.”

Seeing her own son being ridiculed in front of everyone, Courtney could feel the rage burning inside her as she growled, “Shut up! It’s none of your business whether his mother has abandoned him or not.”
