Everyone was shocked.
It was boiled tea water, and it would blister if someone touched it a little bit, not to mention that the whole cup of tea was poured directly on Natalia.
Everyone looked nervously at Natalia, only to find that she had already dodged to the side, unharmed, and the teacup had fallen onto the opposite wall and shattered to pieces.
Everyone was relieved.
When they looked at Faye, they were even more indignant.
Natalia was also a little angry.
She respected Faye and didn't want to argue with Faye because Faye had raised Archie before.
But that didn't mean that Faye could do whatever she wanted. Natalia couldn't stand that Faye targeted her again and again without any reasonable excuse.
With a cold face, Natalia said in a deep voice, "Aunt is old enough anyway. Don't you understand that you have to wait until the tea is cold?"
"Children in the kindergarten all know it, but you don't know it. You still blame the person who poured the tea. Where are your eyes and fingers? Can't you see the white steam coming from it and feel its temperature with your fingers? Why don't you know it's hot until it goes into your mouth?"
Faye didn't expect that Natalia would say that.
As the youngest daughter of the McCarthy family, she had always enjoyed flattery and praise. She had never been humiliated like this before.
But now, the woman in front of her dared to scold her!
The children in the kindergarten were even better than her?
God, who gave this woman so much courage? Did this woman know who she was?
Not only Faye, but also Selena and a group of servants were shocked.
They really admired Natalia's courage.
In the days without parents, Faye was very likely to be a mother for Archie.
If that was the case, then Faye would be Natalia's mother-in-law!
How dare Natalia talk to her mother-in-law so rudely?
What a brave woman Natalia was!
Faye was so angry that she screamed loudly, "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk this to me? Do you know that I brought Archie up? You will never be here again as long as I said this to him!"
"I know you brought Archie up, so I have been so polite to you. But in this world, not everyone knows to respect others even if they are treated politely. There are always some people who are arrogant and domineering in others' place, just relying on their kindness before. In that case, I think I don't need to tolerate them anymore."
"You! You!"
Pointing at Natalia, Faye couldn't speak anything. Her face turned red with anger, but she still had no reason to refute Natalia.
Seeing this, Selena frowned, went forward, and held Faye up.
"Auntie, are you okay?"
It took Faye a long time to calm down. She pointed at Natalia and nodded repeatedly.
"Good, very good! It's my first time to meet someone who dares to talk to me like this. Just wait and see! I'd like to see who Archie will choose between you and me."
After saying that, Faye left angrily with Selena.
The servants were so scared that they didn't dare to make any sound.
It was not until the sound of the engine of the car outside had gone far that Mrs. Dottie walked up to Natalia and said worriedly, "Madam, I'm afraid that she won't forget this since she left so angrily like that. You..."
Natalia lowered her eyes slightly. After a while, she said in a low voice, "Let her go!"
She got what she had today by her own efforts, not by flattering anyone.
She would abide by the most basic politeness between people, but if someone wanted to bully her, Natalia wouldn't give in.
No matter who it was!
