Chapter 724

Leda’s face turned ashen, “What’s the old woman’s stubbornness about? The Salter family is under our control now. Why won’t she accept me?”

Marcel’s expression was equally grim, “You shouldn’t have provoked Isaac.”

“I was only trying to protect Nova. It was that brat who laid his hands on Nova.” Leda tried to shift the blame, trying to preserve her image as a loving grandmother.

But Marcel was no fool, “Mom, if you still want to be part of the Salter family, you better not pull these stunts again.”

With a frustrated silence, Leda conceded, “Fine.”

Marcel gestured, and his assistant wheeled him out.

As they exited the Salter Villa, they were greeted by Joie, who had been waiting outside.

Joie had clearly put a lot of effort into her appearance. She was quite attractive and had been well-maintained over the years, looking every bit the part of a high-society debutante.
