FreeNovelJoyce went to R&S Group headquarters after that. She worked late that day and just returned with Luther.
She was surprised for a moment to see Shelly at the Warner family. Shelly had a rather weird schedule for her work and she would
not chevery day where. She usually cback whenever she wanted, but she didn't even bother to say hello. She didn’t
see her often.
Joyce said hello and headed for Stephanie's room.
Shelly held out an arm to block her way, looking haughty, "Grandma just fell asleep, so don't bother."
Joyce was on her feet, "Oh."
Then, she turned around and prepared to head for the second-floor room.
Shelly was apparently making things difficult for him, yet Joyce did not want that trouble, so she simply hid away.
At this time, Jacqueline was sitting on the living room sofa and spoke in a cool voice, "Why don't you even greetwhen you see
me? Not even the most basic manners?"
With the curtains closed and the living room darkly lit, Joyce really didn't notice that Jacqueline was here today.
After all, she was an elder, so she turned around and called out respectfully, "Hello, auntie."
Jacqueline's makeup was exquisite, her hair was well-dressed, and she had a superior look. She squinted at Joyce and sneered,

to just know the rules."
Joyce smiled and retorted, "First of all, | am not really like | am at home. Secondly, you are not guests either."
"It is just ridiculous that you are both unwilling to acknowledge my identity and want to accuseof not entertaining you as the
host of the family."
She showed a touch of disdain. Also from a wealthy family, Cecelia was completely different. She was elegant and noble, tolerant
and gentle.
And they just looked down upon everyone they met.
"How dare you speak tolike that?! Uneducated bitch!" Jacqueline's face turned green with anger.
Joyce did not want to argue with her, went straight to the nearby water fountain, poured a cup of boiling water, walked up, and put
it on the coffee table in front of Jacqueline, "Be careful with the hot water, drink it later when it's cold. Auntie, there's nothing for
If you keep tangling with a mad dog, it simply won't work out.
"Wait..." Jacqueline's arrogant face crossed with a hint of dissimulation, and a schsuddenly cto her mind.
Coldly, she reached out to pull Joyce.
Joyce was caught off guard.
She was suddenly pulled over, and at the moment she turned back, the boiling water on the coffee table was knocked over at
once, and then all of it poured onto the back of Jacqueline's hand.
"Ah." In the living room, Jacqueline's miserable scream suddenly cout.
Then there was another "ahh", but that was from Shelly this time.
Meanwhile, Luther had just parked his car, heard the shouting, and rushed into the living room just in tto see Jacqueline in
unbearable pain.
Jacqueline's makeup was now distorted and her expression showed her pain, and Shelly's face was all pale with fear as she held
Jacqueline's red-hot hand.
Luther frowned tightly and quickly ordered, "Hurry up and bring cold water over."
Mr. Arnold hurriedly fetched a basin of cold water and brought it over with ice.
Jacqueline put her hand, which was red-hot, inside the cold water basin.
"Mom, how is it, is it serious? What's going on?" Shelly asked anxiously.
Joyce was pushed aside by Shelly. Her face was expressionless, and she had understood everything.
She simply could not imagine that a noblewoman like Jacqueline would use such a trick to deal with her.
She was really flattered.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter the pain in the back of Jacqueline's hand subsided a little, she feigned anger and suddenly knocked over the cold water basin
with a "bang".
Mr. Arnold took a step back in shock.
The cold water, along with the ice, was overwhelmingly poured over Joyce's body.
Immediately after, Jacqueline landed a slap on Joyce's cheek.
"Pop", Joyce's head tilted to the side, a few red marks left on her beautiful cheek.
"Bitch, didn't | just ask you to pour a cup of tea? How dare you deliberately scaldwith boiling water." Jacqueline shouted
sternly.
