Chapter 21

Elliott’s words were indeed not without purpose and were not baseless.

He remembered that Gavin had once said a sentence earlier, “If it’s about Horizon Group, can I help?”

At that time, nobody from the Taylor family believed in hirm, as if he could help them in the Horizon Group’s matter, and that sentiment remained unchanged.

No one believed it back then, which remained unchanged until now, as no one believed it at that moment, either.

“Stop spouting nonsense here!” said Caleb.

Ruby remained silent, and Elliott’s father, Caleb, launched a barrage of angry words and immediately erupted.

“He’ Gavin?” he sneered.

“The Clifford family has long perished and been ruined! He is nothing more than a nobody now! How could Mr. Dunn have any relationship or even connection with Gavin?

“Get lost! Get out of here! Don’t say such nonsense stuff and make me hit you!” said Caleb.

Elliot didn’t dare to defy and challenge his father. He meekly and obediently retreated after hearing his father’s words.

However, Layla fell under his gaze at the moment.

“Fine. I don’t dare to mess with my dad. Don’t you think I would certainly dare to provoke and mess with you, Layla, since you are an illegitimate child?” thought Elliot inwardly.

He pointed directly at Layla and shouted at her.

“Hay, you, the bastard! Why don’t you have a single injury on you while others did?” yelled Elliott.

“You’d better tell us the truth. Is this matter related to you and caused the situation like this now?” asked Elliott.

“Me?” replied Layla doubtfully.

Upon hearing her younger brother’s accusing words, Layla was shocked.

“I don’t know. I have no idea. I didn’t do anything!” claimed Layla.

The members of the Taylor family seemed to have no intention of giving Layla a chance to speak.

Ruby stood up and looked at Layla. Her face was filled with disgust.

She said to Layla, “Alright! I know now. It must be you!

“You! You are such a worthless girl! I wondered why Mr. Dunn suddenly got so angry and said we provoked the wrong people.

“It must be you, the unwanted one, who stirred up trouble with someone and messed up outside, right? You provoked Mr. Dunn, didn’t you?” said Ruby as she laid the blame on her.
