"Mr. Edward, don't blame grandma. This is clearly your fault. She did nothing wrong by criticizing you. I'll call mom and tell her that you're having an affair with another woman!" Justin shouted angrily, panting with rage and glaring at Edward like he had committed a heinous crime. He would not let Edward go this time.
Coco gazed at Cynthia in wonder. She was surprised at her youth and beauty. When she heard Edward call her "mom," she thought she had misheard. But when the aggressive little boy called the woman "grandma," she was startled. Who would think that such a charming and enchanting noblewoman was old enough to be a grandmother?
"You brat, what did I do? Am I naked right now? I didn't do anything. Unless you think that the woman in front of you is more attractive than your mother." Edward was eager to defend himself. He was careless to say such improper things to a child.
"It seems you're right. But why does this aunt wear so little clothes and look so sloppy? Does she think that her clothes are too tight and burdensome, that she feels the need to take some off?" In Justin's eyes, every woman who tried to seduce Edward was an old and ugly aunt. Although the woman in front of him looked a little pretty, she wasn't as beautiful as his mother.
Coco felt embarrassed at Justin and Cynthia's intrusion. Though she quickly pulled up her clothes, they still mocked her to her face. How could she bear the humiliation? Her face paled in an instant and her body trembled with fury.
"Oh! I don't think it's because her clothes are too tight. Maybe she has a tendency of exhibitionism." Cynthia sided with her family. Although she was a little surprised to hear Justin's vulgar words that weren't appropriate for his age, she understood him. This was not the time for good manners. Caring too much was exhausting.
"You... You're bullying me too much!" Coco growled. It's true that Coco took off her clothes by herself, but they were treating her as if she was invisible. She became angry from the embarrassment.
"Bullying? I don't think so. Grandma, are you bullying her? We never bully people, only foxes." Anything that harmed his mother's interests was unforgivable. It wasn't their fault to treat the strange woman this way. If she hadn't coveted something that didn't belong to her, she wouldn't have humiliated herself like this.
"Justin, stop it. Coco, get out! The news about the contract's termination has been released to the public, we can't take it back. The FX International Group's decision is final. Behave yourself and leave." Edward knew that Justin was more mature than his age. But he didn't agree with Justin's behavior of arguing his way through everything. This would restrict his further development in the business world when he grew up.
Coco glared at them before she rushed out, covering her face with her hands in shame. She had never felt so humiliated in her life. She had heard about Edward's bastard son Justin, but she didn't expect him to be so vicious. He didn't behave like an innocent boy, and she was not that stubborn, so she left to spare herself from further humiliation.
