Chapter 264 A Bunch of Trash
Caroline chuckled with frustration. “Were we close in the past?”
Upon hearing her question, Jade erupted, “Oh, my brother! You died so miserably. Your daughter’s
wealthy now, but she acts like she doesn’t know us!
“My mother, my brother! Who will bring us justice? We can’t survive. It’s better to die…”
Caroline clenched her fists on her lap, glaring at Jade’s dramatic outburst. She couldn’t fathom it. Her
father had great gambling debts in the past, yet they had never kept in touch. Why were they suddenly
here?
Caroline was lost in thought when a sudden, sharp crash interrupted her. Looking up, she saw Gigi
smashing a rabbit ornament Neil had given her when she first started her company.
“What a piece of junk! It shattered when it fell,” Gigi remarked with disdain.

couldn’t reach it, so Gregory helped her retrieve it.
Caroline couldn’t take it any longer. She stood up and leered at them. “If you can converse politely. my
employees, I won’t

hesitate to use force to stop you.”
Brandon clutched his chest and laughed wickedly. I’m shaking in my boots.”
As he spoke, he approached Caroline and leaned in. “You’re going to use violence to stop us?”
Brandon was uncomfortably close, and his foul breath made Caroline cringe. She swallowed her
discomfort and stared him down. “Yes,”
“Go on, then!” Brandon raised his phone and pushed it toward Caroline. “Hit me! Get someone to hit
1. me. I’ll record it. How shameless can you be!”
Caroline’s anger boiled over. She swatted his phone away and slapped him. “Stop being rude!”
Jade, who had been crying, rushed over to cradle Brandon’s face. When she saw the red handprint on
her son’s face, she pointed at Caroline and scolded her. “Shameless! How dare you slap my son?”
She rolled up her sleeves as she spoke, ready to teach Caroline a lesson.
Brandon intervened, “Mom, don’t hit her! Let her do it.”
While speaking, he lifted his red face and gestured at Caroline. “Go on. Hit me. I’ll have plenty to
say when the reporters arrive”
“What do you want?” Caroline asked.

“Not much,” Brandon replied. “We want to stay with you for a while. You’re living in a villa, right? Let us

Caroline offered, “I can arrange a hotel for you.”

Caroline closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She had to endure this, at least for now. If more
negative news came out, it would harm her company further.
Gritting her teeth, she said, “Fine! I’ll take you home with me.”
Suppressing her emotions, Caroline left the office with her troublesome family.
The employees who had witnessed the spectacle quickly retreated to their offices.
Once Caroline and her guests were gone, they exchanged worried remarks.
“What kind of people are they?”
“Why does Ms. Shenton have such shameless relatives?”
“Every family has its problems. We can’t help her, but we can work hard here.”
Naomi said, “It’s better to work than gossip.”
Everyone fell silent.
