Chapter 282 - 187: Biel Hall and the Scott Family Are Irreconcilable Enemies!

Nora Scott slipped a hand into her pocket, glaring at him and casually said, "What a joke, wasn’t it your responsibility? How could I have manipulated it?"

"You—"

Ethan Scott gnashed his teeth.

In his earlier speech, he omitted all the helpers and took credit for everything himself.

It was him who painstakingly confirmed the drawings.

It was him who led the carpenters to handle the production.

He was the leader of the whole project, and everything he was responsible for, others merely cooperated with him.

— The participants of the project weren’t present. Now, he could say whatever he wanted, as the mouth was his.

Naturally, if he were to blame everything on Nora Scott, it would contradict what he just said.

But, since he’d made such a spectacle of himself, why would Ethan Scott care about such things?

He only hated that he couldn’t tear Nora Scott into pieces!

He took a deep breath and charged directly at Nora Scott, raising his fist to strike her.

Nora Scott clicked her tongue, full of disdain.

Was he really showing off these feeble punches in front of her?

She stood there, unmoving, until his fist came near. Only then did she shoot out her hand, grab Ethan Scott by the wrist, step forward, and flip him over her shoulder without mercy.

Ethan Scott was thrown to the ground in a most undignified manner.

The ground was a path paved with gravel, not soft earth, firm and cold, and this fall immediately left Ethan Scott grimacing in pain.

"I told you, I don’t have any special skills, just learned some self-defense." With a light flick of her sleeve, Nora Scott looked down at him from above, her gaze contemptuous and scornful, as if looking at an ant. She lifted her eyelids slightly, her tone lightening, "Haven’t learned your lesson?"

"Damn it!"

Ethan Scott’s whole body was in pain, but his anger was boiling, and he cursed, unwilling to accept defeat, gritting his teeth, he got up and charged again with a raised fist.

This time, before Nora Scott could act, Pedro Langley frowned impatiently and directly delivered a kick.

The leather of Pedro’s Martin boots was very hard, and with almost full force, Ethan Scott was struck by this kick and immediately fell to his knees, clutching his abdomen, his face pale from pain, breaking into a cold sweat.

"Don’t touch her with your dirty hands."

Pedro Langley lowered his eyes, speaking each word deliberately, filled with threat and warning.

!

Everyone present was collectively dumbfounded.

Challenging right at the entrance and starting a fight the moment they arrived, what was going on?!

"Ah—what are you trying to do?!"

Finally regaining her senses, Ouyang Qiu rushed out anxiously, ran to Ethan Scott’s side, squatted, and shouted desperately to the servants, "Where are you all?! Why are you just standing there, do I pay you for nothing?! Hurry up and grab these troublemakers!"

With her reminder, some people began to react.

Not only the servants but even the Scott family members stepped forward, surrounding the three.

However, when they were about to approach, the icy gazes of Nora Scott and Pedro Langley filled them with an inexplicable chill, instilling fear in their hearts.

Moreover—

They all knew Ernesto Scott.

Ernesto Scott took a step forward, clearly intending to protect the two.

"Enough!"

Aaron Scott could no longer sit still, slapped the table, and stood up abruptly.

With the old man’s command, the Scott family members and the servants all paused, then automatically made way, clearing a small path towards Aaron Scott.

"What are you doing here?" With the birthday celebration repeatedly disrupted, Aaron Scott was now livid with rage, his face gloomy like a storm, and he harshly threw down words as he glared at Nora Scott, "Our Scott family does not recognize you as a granddaughter!"

His opening words immediately confirmed Nora Scott’s identity, while also enlightening everyone present—

Oh!

She really was the newly recognized eldest granddaughter of the Scott family?

But now, what kind of bizarre situation and development was this?

Just as everyone was perplexed, that peerlessly beautiful woman gave a nonchalant response—

"I’m here in mourning clothes, to see when you will die."

Everyone: !!! Awesome!

Flora Loughton + Mrs. Chapman: Damn, this girl is too cool! We must get her as the daughter-in-law! Our family needs someone like her!

Scott family members: !!! Damn you! Causing trouble is one thing, but do you have to be so brazen about it?!

Alma Ferreira and Sophie Scott had been sitting dazed since they appeared, completely bewildered by the unfolding scene, eyes wide open.

— Even with double their experience, they would never encounter such a scenario!

— Did Ernesto Woods and Nora Scott go mad?
