Beatrix couldn’t help but scoff in contempt when she saw Lara behaving this way. “What is your position and role in Terence Group? Why should Mackenzie listen to you? Mackenzie was simply being polite. It’s clear that her underlying message is that you shouldn’t overestimate yourself!” 

Beatrix had encountered people like Lara far too many times! Individuals like her were as common as the fishes in the sea, especially on those platforms where they could get away with saying anything they wanted. 

These individuals were actually immature and ignorant. Yet, they enjoyed pointing out flaws and criticizing experts on how things should be done. They would constantly act as if they were smarter than Einstein himself. They even had the audacity to prance around, acting as though they were rare geniuses who had been studying under Socrates and Aristotle since the age of three. They may even start quoting some random philosopher like Plato while acting all superior. Some delusional netizens would start bringing up strategies that didn’t fit the bill and write puff pieces just to get some clicks. 

In reality, they were nothing but clowns! 

Lara was already embarrassed. However, she became infuriated after Beatrix’s tongue-lashing as she hissed, “Beatrix, you’re just trying to create conflict between Mackenzie and me. Well, I’ll show you just who’s in charge. Since I’ve returned, you’ll be yesterday’s news soon enough! I’ll surpass you in no time, you loser! Hmph!” 

She knew of Mackenzie’s influence within the Quillen family. Plus, she had always idolized Mackenzie since she was a child. So, she didn’t dare to criticize her idol. Instead, she could only vent her anger on Beatrix! 

“Hmph! Big words for someone with zero achievements! Do you think I’d be afraid of you?” 

Beatrix, who had always had a fiery temper, was not intimidated by Lara’s arguments at all. Rather, she didn’t hesitate to confront her directly, saying imperiously, “What’s the use of learning multiple foreign languages? The business world values strength and experience! It doesn’t care for people who can’t deliver results! Do you think speaking with an accent would impress anyone? If that’s the case, I can start speaking in code! What do you think of that then?!” 

‘Alright, you two. That’s enough!” 

Samantha quickly intervened before things could escalate further. 

The Quillen girls had constantly been at odds with each other since they were young. Alas, they didn’t expect that Beatrix and Lara, who were already 20, would start trash-talking each other the moment they bumped into each other. They truly hadn’t matured even the slightest! 

“Fine. I won’t waste my breath on someone so childish. I’ve returned with a greater purpose! I’m here to help the Quillen family regain its former glory!” 

Lara was filled with somewhat unfounded confidence. 

She didn’t care how the members of the family saw her. There was no denying the fact that she had received an education abroad. Hence, there was no way she wasn’t going to use this opportunity to show off. 

Still, she immediately changed the subject the moment she caught sight of Emmanuel! 

“Mackenzie, you can ignore my advice regarding other issues. However, there is one thing you should listen to me about!” 

09:25 Mon, 8 Jan ti 

Lara pointed at Emmanuel and said, “This scumbag is not worthy of you at all. To make matters worse, news has gotten out that he’s been visiting nightclubs and fooling around with women! You have to divorce him right now. This marriage has been a complete failure from the start! Why continue being with a man who has brought nothing but shame to our family?!” 

As soon as Lara spoke, the other Quillen family members who were watching the show started showing interest in how things were unfolding. 

Hannah had been silent all evening because she had sold her shares and was determined to have nothing to do with the Quillen family. She genuinely didn’t care if the family succeeded or failed. 

Nonetheless, her aloof demeanor was replaced with a glimmer of intrigue. 

Samantha and her sisters knew that Lara had a flamboyant personality that they didn’t particularly like. In fact, they couldn’t deny that they viewed her as a jester when they were feeling particularly bored. 

Regardless, they were more than willing to use Lara as their spokesperson tonight! 

Once Lara brought up this particular topic, Sophie immediately spoke coldly, “Impressive! Cheating on your spouse so soon?” 

Moira, who rarely chimed in, couldn’t help but say to Terence, “Dad, is this the man you chose for Mackenzie? Our family’s reputation is ruined!” 

Felicity was also disappointed in Emmanuel! 

She had hoped to use him and Mackenzie to control the Quillen family. Unfortunately, this man had done something that not only embarrassed himself but also affected Mackenzie’s position in the Quillen family!
