Ice and Fire novel Chapter 660

"Greg, are you insulting me?" The expression on Tina's was distorted and she even wanted to walk up to Greg and slap him soundly.

Tina's spontaneous reaction was stopped by Carol, who took her daughter's arm and calmly warned," You know the consequences of offending the GR Group, right?"

"Yes, I am aware," Greg said blithely. Carol's threat didn't intimidate him at all," I just hope that you target me, alone, and not uninvolved parties."

Unable to control herself any long, Tina screeched," Greg, I won't let Violet get away with this."

Greg glared angrily at Tina, shouting back," Don't you dare harm her! You won't get away with it!" He wouldn't allow anyone to harm Violet.

"Really? We'll see about that," Tina angrily said meeting Greg's gaze.

All the sudden Fred's angry voice rang through the room," Tina!"

Tina turned her angry stare to Fred wanting to hear what he had to say.

"You would be wise to leave Violet alone. If you were to attempt to harm her, it would damage your family, and you would be unable to bear the consequences," Fred informed her. Knowing Violet's family background and relationship, he knew, whether it was Jackson, Cherry, or one of their good friends, Wilson, Selina, Derek or Mond, their love for Violet was on par with the love for their children. If something happened to Violet, they would not stand idly by. Even if the Yuwen Family and the Lu Family did not intervene, and it was only Jackson, the Gu Family would be destroyed.

"Fred, are you supporting your son's decision? You just promised your support to my daughter's marriage to your son though!" said Carol surprised when Fred changed sides so quickly and spoke for Violet.

Hearing Carol's words, Sharon hurriedly approached Fred, taking hold of his arm, and said," Right, husband, you just promised Mrs Carol you would support Tina and Greg's marriage."

"Yes, I just gave my promise, but now, I have to reconsider it," stated Fred. He hadn't expected his son to truly love Violet. He thought his son wasn't in love when he promised, and that Tina would nurture a good relationship since they had known each other for a long time. Now, it seemed that everything was not as he had perceived. He didn't want to fight his son. He wanted his son to be happy, so, he needed to respect his son's opinions.

"Fred, you....." Carol stopped, she was so outraged that she wanted to lose her temper. She wanted to use the Gu's family influence to coerce the Xiao family, but the two families were equally as powerful, and there was nothing she could use to sway them.

Just beside her, Tina blurted out in fury," Mom, they are browbeating us!" With her lousy temper exposed, there was no way to avoid a heated argument anymore.

In the midst of her daughter's tantrum, Carol took a few breaths to collect herself. She had experienced many similar scenarios in the business realm and knew precisely how to handle this.

Since the problem was not going to right itself with the heated discussions, they needed to remove themselves first," Tina, get your things, we are leaving!" announced Carol.

When she realized her daughter was not going to cooperate, Carol dragged Tina out of the Xiao family home.

Sitting in the car, Tina decided she would give her Mother the silent treatment and looked out the window.

"Fred has always been such a reliable person, I never imagined he would change his mind like that. The Xiao family is simply being unreasonable," Carol stated angrily.

"Just look at them! It's like they have conspired to insult us!" yelled Tina.

Carol went silent.

Suddenly, an idea struck Tina and she made a call.

A woman's voice came through the phone," Hello, Miss Tina."

"I want you to investigate a GR Group employee named Violet. Send me all the information you find on her, before tomorrow afternoon," Tina ordered, needing to know everything wanted about this strumpet.

With her orders heard, Tina hung up and looked ahead out the windshield angrily.
