“Don’t bother with them, hurry up and make Ms. Osborn’s milk tea! Then skip this woman and serve the next customers!” the bubble tea shop owner commanded his staff, pointing at Molly.
The foot traffic on Sovereign Estate Street in Niarak was bustling; customers were never in short supply.
Having previously opened three shops elsewhere that all failed, this year he secured a spot on Sovereign Estate Promenade Lane through connections and made a killing thanks to the online celebrity effect.
Of the $300, 000 he had lost before, he only had $120, 000 left to pay off and estimated he would be profitable within a month.
He didn’t want to delay his business any longer.
Molly stood there with a darkened face, her fists clenched in anger.
The customers shook their heads.
What was said just now? Better run away, why wouldn’t they listen!
Now look, staying here only to be humiliated repeatedly, even telling the bubble tea shop owner to get lost, truly a public embarrassment.
The Jenkins family was much more powerful than Orion Kennedy; they were not intimidated by the Niarak elite.
You think you can order Freddie Jenkins around? That’s wildly imaginative!
As everyone whispered among themselves, a woman appeared in sight.
Slim figure, big eyes, snow-white skin, and jet-black hair, she was a sight for sore eyes, especially her long legs clad in teal skinny jeans, which drew frequent glances from those around.
“Ms. Everett is here!” Vivienne Osborn spotted the newcomer and rushed over joyfully.
The woman, full of pride, did not stop or greet her, instead walking forward and asking, “Did you buy my milk tea?”
“Staff is making it now, caramel flavor, right?”
“Also, our boss has arranged a table with food and drinks waiting for you!” Vivienne Osborn said with a grin, pointing to a nearby location.
It was a four-story antique building with white walls and gray tiles, beautifully carved doors and windows.
“Genevieve? What are you doing here?” Molly recognized the newcomer immediately as Genevieve Everett, and her brow furrowed.
Vivienne Osborn’s smile froze, taken aback, “She… she’s Ms. Everett’s friend?”
“No, I don’t know her,” Genevieve Everett replied sharply, narrowing her eyes.
Molly’s mouth opened slightly as if she wanted to say something more, but eventually, she closed it and stood frozen.
Vivienne Osborn breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
It seemed the two did not get along well, and judging by Genevieve Everett’s reaction, there was animosity.
Especially when Genevieve Everett’s gaze fell on Flynn, her face showed intense disgust and contempt.
That moment, she knew.
“Mr. Jenkins invited Ms. Everett over to discuss Martial Arts, specifically sending me to welcome her!” Vivienne Osborn snorted.
Genevieve Everett glanced at an elderly lady covered in blood, frowning, “What happened?”
Vivienne Osborn pointed angrily at Flynn and his companion, “I was buying you milk tea, and this man started harassing me. My grandmother stepped in to scold him, and he hit her!”
“This woman didn’t urge him to apologize, instead joining him in attacking us!”
“Both of them bullying an old woman, they are no good!”
“She’s truly despicable!” Hearing this, Genevieve Everett’s expression turned icy, her eyes filled with loathing as she looked at Flynn.
Molly, upon hearing this, immediately protested, “Genevieve, this has nothing to do with Flynn, it’s Ms. Osborn…”
“Apologize!” Genevieve Everett abruptly interrupted, her voice cold, “Hurry up and apologize to the old lady!”
“Are you sick!” Flynn’s face darkened, unable to restrain himself, “You don’t even bother to find out what happened and start spouting nonsense here?”
Vivienne Osborn flew into a rage, “Scoundrel, how dare you speak like that? Don’t you know that Miss Genevieve Everett is a Grandmaster? She could slap you to death, hurry up and…”
“There’s no need to waste words with such clowns!” Genevieve Everett said dismissively, raising her hand indifferently as she looked coldly at Flynn:
“I don’t need to know the details, nor do I ask who is right or wrong. She has been my friend for many years, and in my view, anyone who troubles her is in the wrong.”
“I only ask one last thing, do you want to apologize or not?”
“Genevieve, you are being unreasonable!” Molly bit her lip, stepping forward to stand between them, and said to Genevieve Everett:
“We did nothing wrong today! Please don’t take sides!”
“Oh?” Genevieve Everett was taken aback, and said sarcastically, “You’ve grown bold, defying my wishes!”
“Planning to use your family connections against me?”
“Fine! Go ahead, call them. Cry and ask your grandfather to intervene, let me lose face.”
Among the six sisters, although Athena Ross harbored some grudges against Molly, it hadn’t reached the point of hatred.
When the other sisters targeted Molly, Athena always intervened to stop them.
Genevieve Everett was displeased.
She thought that if Molly openly broke ties and asked Barney Spencer to intervene, it would certainly force Athena to stand against Molly.
That way, everyone could petition to strip Molly of her disciple status at Alwood Mountains.
As long as Molly was unhappy, everyone felt a sense of vindictive pleasure!
Molly, of course, understood Genevieve’s intentions and felt extremely upset, bowing her head in silence.
“Unwilling?” Genevieve Everett sneered coldly, suddenly raising her voice, “Then get out! Why stay here and disgust me?”
After saying this, she glanced coldly at Flynn, “Didn’t you say last time you’d protect her?”
“Today I scold Molly like a dog, and you just stand there! Help her!”
“Want to fight? Bring it on!”
“I’d really like to teach you a lesson, you ungrateful man!”
Last time, Flynn was extremely arrogant, and with the sisters holding her back, Genevieve Everett couldn’t take action.
Today, if Flynn dared to make a move, Genevieve Everett would make him kneel and beg for mercy!
Flynn’s eyes narrowed, a chill appearing in them.
Honestly, Genevieve Everett was less than an ant in his eyes, barely worth a glance.
But this woman’s incessant nagging was really annoying!
“Flynn, don’t do anything rash!” Molly felt Flynn’s murderous intent and was terrified.
This guy, once enraged, didn’t care who the opponent was; he would definitely leave Genevieve severely injured.
“Flynn, please, let’s just go,” Molly pleaded, pulling on Flynn’s hand, wanting to leave.
After Flynn’s explanation in a dream the last time, Molly had come to terms with a lot, but still felt some guilt towards her sisters.
Such things couldn’t vanish in a day; they needed time and opportunity.
“Flynn must stay. He hurt the old lady, and must await Ms. Osborn’s decision!” Genevieve Everett stated indifferently.
Vivienne Osborn sneered, “My demands are not excessive, just that he hits the same arm he hit my grandmother with!”
The old lady, looking triumphant, said, “Boy, Ms. Everett is backing us, you better kneel down and apologize quickly!”
“Let me tell you, in all these years, no one who has crossed me has gotten away unscathed!”
“You won’t be an exception!”
Her face fierce, hands on hips, she glared fiercely at Flynn.
One could imagine, if she had a knife in her hand, she would definitely rush up and hack Flynn to pieces.
Of course, Flynn had no thoughts of leaving, unmoved no matter how Molly pulled.
Staring at Genevieve Everett, he said coldly, “Does bullying your sister feel like an achievement?”
“Convinced she wouldn’t dare to offend you? Mocking at will?”
“Fine, I’ll teach you a lesson for her!”
“And you two line-cutters, like to shout and scream, right?”
“Then I’ll smash your mouths, see if you can still shout so loudly!”
