Chapter 1142
How could that be possible? Nathan had no reason to lie to him. This was downright absurd! Jenna was so
shocked she nearly jumped out of bed. She even wondered if Nathan's age was catching up with him or if he'd
been kicked in the head by a mule. "Great-uncle, are you kidding? Flora is your mentor?!" Jenna couldn't wrap
her head around it. "You haven't been duped by that Flora, have you?" The more Jenna thought about it, the
more plausible it seemed. "That Flora, always so shady-she must have spun some
tale to fool you, right? How could a woman from Austenberg be fit to be your mentor!"
Just as she finished speaking, a commanding middle-aged voice boomed from outside the door. "What, you think
the precious gem of the Rivera and Lancaster families being mentored by someone from the Neville family is
beneath you?"

Davis and Jenna instinctively turned towards the doorway. A group of people walked in with an impressive air, led
by Karter, Amanda, and Ethan, with Mike trailing behind, sporting an apologetic grin.
Davis was so terrified his knees almost buckled. This time, he was really on the verge of kneeling! It was the
folks from the four major families! What kind of day was this? Why were all these people here?
Jenna's mind was spinning! She recognized Karter and Amanda. She had tried to curry favor with them before,
but they had never given her the tof day. After all, she was just a branch of the Neville family, insignificant
compared to the four great families. But now, they were all here. And what did their words mean earlier? What
did they mean by the precious gem of the Rivera and Lancaster families?
Nathan, who had been sitting, quickly stood up when he saw Karter and Amanda. "Not wronged at all! Please
don't say that in front of my mentor!" He was worried about upsetting her again. They'd have to make amends
all over!
"Mrs. Falcone, Karter, what's going on-" Davis was sweating bullets, stumbling over his words. He suddenly
realized that the woman from Austenberg was no ordinary person.
"Sfolks have been throwing
their weight around at the medical center, bullying my dear niece, which | found quite interesting, so | cto
see who this big shot was," Karter chuckled. "Turns out, it's you the Neville family."
Nathan quickly added, "Branch!" He was the illegitimate son of his brother's family, sharing only a smidgen of
blood relation with him. He never liked Davis, finding his methods underhanded. During the family division, Davis
even used sneaky tactics to grab resources. But Davis loved to use his nto do things, and being engrossed
in perfmaking, Nathan didn't bother intervening. This time,
though, Davis had crossed Flora.

"You mean, Flora claims to be your niece?" Davis was drenched in sweat, while Jenna felt a chill run through her,
freezing her to the core.
"Flora, she's also my daughter-in-law
in the Falcone family," Amanda said
with a sly grin. "Ms. Kaylee's got quite the reputation at the medical center heard you wanted my daughter-in-
law Flora to kowtow and apologize to you?"
Flora was not only the niece of the Rivera and Lancaster families but also the daughter-in-law of the Falcone
family. Jenna's lips quivered, her face as pale as a sheet.
"No, that's not true!" Davis was the quickest on his feet, sweat pouring off him. "We never said that!"
With Flora backed by the Rivera and Lancaster families, and Nathan standing by her, Davis had already let go of
any thoughts of revenge against Flora, just hoping these bigwigs wouldn't clooking for trouble with him!
Ethan's voice was light and breezy, "So what you're saying is, we're making this up?"
