My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey) novel Chapter 107

Inside the courtyard wall half the height of a person, Layla, wearing a dark red floral jacket, stood on her tiptoes and poked a man's head as she scolded him.

"You brainless, stupid thing. If it weren't for that money-losing good-for-nothing, you wouldn't have become a cripple. I was kind enough to help you send that money-losing good-for-nothing out, but you dare to talk back to me?"

Hearing this, the usually gentle Trevor was a little annoyed.

He didn't mind Layla scolding him as soon as she arrived, but he couldn't stand her scolding his sister.

Layla did not like Eliza. This was almost public knowledge in the Harper family.

Layla didn't like Eliza because she was a girl. Layla thought she was a good-for-nothing.

However, when she was young, Eliza was not in good health. She looked like a small ball and was adorable.

Moreover, her mother had risked her life in exchange for her.

Trevor liked Eliza as his sister.

Besides, he felt it had nothing to do with his sister that he became like this.

He thought he was just unlucky.

Trevor clenched his fists and his thin body tensed up. The corners of his mouth were slightly lowered as he said, "Grandma, you're not giving her out. You want to sell Eliza."

Layla's expression changed and her tone became sharp. "What do you mean selling her? That's called an engagement gift. Which family doesn't accept engagement gifts when they marry off their daughters now?"

Trevor's heart turned cold when he heard Layla's self-righteous words. He said coldly, "Marriage requires two parties to be willing. You accepted the engagement gift on her behalf without asking Eliza's permission. I object."

"You object? What's the use of you objecting? Do you think I'm here to ask for your opinion?"

Layla spoke for a long time, but when she saw that Trevor was still like a block of wood, she immediately felt a throbbing pain in her temples and shouted at the top of her lungs.

She said, "Tell me where Eliza is hiding now. I'm telling you, she can't hide. This is her life."

Trevor was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He panted and said, "I won't tell you. I won't let you ruin Eliza."

Layla was even angrier after being contradicted. Her face was tense, and her eyes were wide open. She said sternly, "This is outrageous. Your father isn't around, and I have a final say in this family.
