Chapter 1247 So What?

Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

Upon hearing Pierre’s words, Paisley was furious. “Pierre, are you crazy? Did you buy this house? Do you have the right to kick me out?”
“Of course I didn’t buy the house. It was bought by Acma Corporation and as the descendant of the company, I should live in this villa. As for you, woman…” Pierre paused.
“You don’t deserve to live here. Let me remind you, from the moment you and Ornard conspired against father, you have lost the right to live here! Father said that you are no longer a member of the Anthony family. Since that is the case, why the hell are you still here?”
Paisley’s face was flushed red. “Do you want me to move out because of father, or because of you and your mom?”
“All, I would say. Paisley, don’t you know that the winner is the loser sometimes? If you have succeeded, would you have let us go? Move out from here on your own, or I’m calling the security!”
Paisley looked at Pierre with hatred, while he just stared at her calmly.
“It’s useless for you to stare at me like that, and being hateful does not solve the problem too. You’d better think of a way to handle your old husband, Ornard. He’s not gonna let you off the hook if you failed. I heard that he’s a cruel man who would not show mercy to anyone who failed him. Seems like your Mrs. Laban dream is ruined then? Hah, how ironic! You did everything to get with this old hag and this is the outcome! The lady of the Anthony family seriously married an old man because nobody wants her! Imagine how embarrassing this is to the public!”
Looking at Pierre’s smiling face and listening to his sarcastic words, Paisley clenched her fists tightly. She lost for now, so what? It was merely just moving out!
Paisley went back to her room to pack up her luggage. Her clothes and bags were packed with several large boxes. She then called the moving company and moved out of the villa that night.
When she left, Pierre stood at the door with his hands folded. “All packed and ready to go?”
Paisley ignored him, yet Pierre did not feel embarrassed at all. “Alright then, all the best, Mrs. Laban! I heard that Ornard has a new villa in B City, so you can move there then! A gentle reminder to you, I heard that he already has a woman an their child in the house with him, so if you move in you would be chased out, right? If I were you, I would think of a way to stabilize my own status and position by getting rid of the mother and son, am I right?”
As Pierre spoke, he made a gesture of cutting his head off. Paisley ignored him and glared hatefully before getting in her car.
After driving for a while, Danya called her and said, “Miss, something happened today!”
“What’s the matter?” Paisley slowed down.
“Madelyn and Angel went to Azalea’s ward to look for her. I don’t know what happened to the three of them, but Madelyn and Angel are both injured.”
“A group fight? How is that bitch, Angel?”
“Her face is a little swollen, but there’s nothing else. I guess it was Madelyn who helped her ward off the disaster. Madelyn’s face was covered with scratches and some her hair was pulled off too.”
His words reminded Paisley of when she was beaten by Angel and Madelyn. She laughed coldly and said, “Karma is a bitch indeed!”
“Yes, God will punish her! By the way, Miss, what’s going on with the Floyd family? I don’t think Angel is affected at all, is she? Hasn’t the Floyd family know her real identity yet?”
Danya was considered family to her, so Paisley did not try to cover up anything. “I have no idea what the Floyd family is thinking, but I don’t think they would be so foolish to just ignore the situation. It’s either they are planning something, or they have feelings for Angel, whom they have raised for so many years. Maybe that’s why they did not do anything to her. Oh yeah, during the time when you’re in the hospital, did Mrs. Floyd go to the hospital to visit Angel?”
“No, she didn’t go there once. By the way, Mr. Floyd went to the hospital today. I heard that he and Angel quarreled in the ward behind closed doors. They were both mad before leaving. I think Angel looking for Azalea must have something to do with Mr. Floyd seeing her. I’ll tell you anything if there’s any update!”
“Okay, thanks for your hard work! Danya, I’m kicked out! My father knows about my conspiracy with Ornard and he wants to drive me out of the Anthony family. I have nothing now.”
“Huh? How could they treat you this way?” Danya was surprised and angry. “Miss, do you have a place to live now? Do you want to ask Ornard for help?”
“Ornard won’t help me. He was with me because he wanted to make use of me. For people who are useless to him, Ornard will not be soft-hearted. You don’t have to worry that I don’t have a place to live. Didn’t my brother buy an condo? It’s the one used to scheme against Natasya and Anderson that time. Father doesn’t know about that condo, so Ill move in first.”
“That’s the only way I guess. Miss, you have money, don’t you? I have saved some money with you these years. Tell me your card number and I will transfer the money to you.”
Danya’s words touched Paisley very much. When she was betrayed, only Danya stayed with her and she would always remember this in her heart. “No, I have money and I’m not at the end of my rope. The difficulties are temporary so don’t worry, as I will find a way to go back sooner or later. By the way, Danya, try to help me get some hair from Angel. I need it.”
In the Davis family, Michael got out of the car and closed the door heavily. He strode through the courtyard and entered the living room with a frown on his face.
The living room was brightly lit. Wayne, Stanty, and Meadow sat on the sofa.
Seeing Michael, Meadow asked first, “Why are you so late? Have you eaten?”
“Yep!” Michael answered simply, then walked to the side of Wayne and sat down. “Grandpa, what can I do for you?”
Wayne answered with a smile, “Can’t I see you if there’s nothing?”
“Yes, it’s just that I’ve been very busy and tired recently. What is so important that we can’t we talk on the phone?”
Seeing that his attitude was not nice toward Wayne, Meadow quickly eased the situation in fear of Wayne getting mad. “Gosh, what are you talking about? Grandpa wants to see you regarding something important, of course it’s better to talk about it in person!”
Wayne ignored Meadow’s interruption and ordered the servants, “Make some stew for Michael to replenish his health. He seems to have lost weight recently!”
Michael refused. “No, grandpa. Just tell me what it is. I have to go back soon.”
“So late?”
“I have something to do tomorrow, so it’s not convenient for me to stay here.”
Since Michael said so, Wayne did not insist anymore. He stood up and signaled Michael to follow him to the study. At first, Meadow and Stanty thought that they could listen to the conversation, so they were not happy when they saw both of them going up.
Wayne took Michael into the study and closed the door. “I’ll go straight to the point. I asked you to come back today to talk about Azalea.”
