“Get this old woman out of our sight! She spread rumors about her adopted daughter!”

“How shameless! She’s a liar and a hypocrite!”

The more people that pointed their fingers at Lauren, the more overwhelmed she got.She was so enraged that she needed to take a few deep breaths to regulate her blood pressure.

How she wished in that moment she could strangle Natalie to death! Thankfully, she managed to hold herself back.

She racked her brains for a way to redeem her reputation, but found that she couldn’t refute Sebastian’s statement at all.

There was no way she could admit to the dirty things she had done.Her only choice was to retreat.

Seeing that her mother was nearing defeat, Cassie was furious.

She opened her mouth to give Natalie an earful, but was interrupted by Lauren.

“Calm down, Cassie.” Lauren shook her head.

Then, she whispered into her daughter’s ear, “We’ve lost.Itll be worse if we try to defend ourselves.”

Cassie wrinkled her nose with disdain.

“Mom, I can’t stand her arrogance! When she still lived with us, she never fought back tch deserves to be punished. Who does she think she is, anyway? She’s just a bitch who was abandoned by her biological parents!”

Lauren’s eyes went wide and her hand flew to cover Cassie’s mouth. They weren’t in the confines of their own home.

If Cassie kept talking like this, things would just get worse.

“We’re leaving.”

They couldn’t stay here a second longer.

Lauren shot Natalie one last murderous glare before turning around to leave with Cassie and the timid George.

As they stormed off, Lauren gritted her teeth angrily.She was never going to let Natalie go.She needed to take revenge.

After the Quinn family of three left, the commotion died down and the guest went back to drinking and talking.

Just as Natalie was about to approach Sebastian, several colleagues stopped her.
