Chapter 27

The current state of Layla astonished and shocked not only Jackson and Caleb but also Ruby. Their pupils displayed amazement and even fear, leaving them in a state of astonishment, bewilderment, and a hint of fear. When had they ever seen Layla in this state, using such a tone to address. them?

The previous Layla had always been meek and cautious.

The current situation was different, even contradictory.

She dared to call Jackson and Ruby by their names directly!

Besides that, she told them that she was no longer their adopted daughter from that onward.

The most important one was that she threatened Jackson and Ruby. She further threatened them, claiming she wouldn’t let Jackson off the hook if he called her a ‘wretch’ or ‘bastard’ again.

After a brief moment of bewilderment and confusion, Jackson’s face contorted into a malicious expression. He couldn’t believe that the previously submissive and timid Layla would dare to threaten him or take any action against him.

She wouldn’t let him off the hook anymore.

He shouted directly at Layla.

“Fine! You ungrateful parasite! Without the Taylor family, what are you? I’d like to see how you plan to deal with me! Let’s see how you dare not spare me,” yelled Jackson.

Listening to Jackson’s words, Layla’s face bore a serene smile, much like Gavin’s.

She spoke with interest, “Jackson, don’t forget that I have been managing the Taylorizon Group all these years. Even though I don’t hold any official position, my understanding of the Taylorizon Group is much deeper and far surpasses yours.

“Similarly, I know how to bring the Taylorizon Group to its knees, crumble into oblivion, and ruin its reputation.”

“What!” expressed Jackson when he heard Layla’s words.

Layla’s words caused Jackson’s brows to furrow, and fear and panic were

He realized Layla’s words were far from empty threats.
