Lauren let out a cold snort. She lifted her hand, stopping Stella from launching into another furious tirade.

“Trey, I’ll give you one week to deal with that woman properly. And remember to pass this message on to her-

“Tell her to leave the country immediately. From now on, she is never to set foot in Goldmont again. Otherwise…” A ruthless glint flashed through the old woman’s cloudy eyes. “She’d better be prepared to never see her son again for the rest of her life.”

At those words, something seemed to occur to Trey. He froze for a moment, then turned to Stella. “You’ve taken Pete away?”

He reached for his phone at once, intending to call home, but Stella cut him off coldly. “There’s no need to worry. As long as Angela leaves obediently, I’ll arrange for Pete to reunite with her in a year. I have no interest in raising her son for her.

“But if she insists on clinging to you and refuses to let go, then Pete will be sent somewhere she’ll never be able to find. And Angela’s family-and she herself-should be prepared to stand against the Fox family for the rest of their lives…”

“Grandma, I swear I won’t see Angela again!” Trey said angrily, knowing there was no room left to maneuver.” But Pete is only an adopted child. He’s still young. You shouldn’t involve a child in this…”

“Trey, at this point, I have no intention of verifying anything further.” Lauren gripped the armrest of the sofa, swallowing a hard breath. “I don’t want to see that woman. The Fox family’s dignity cannot be trampled underfoot by a child of dubious origin and a woman with corrupt intentions. As for what you choose to do, weigh it carefully yourself.”

With that, Lauren didn’t spare Trey another glance. She rose, and the servants immediately stepped forward to help her leave.

Knowing he couldn’t sway the old woman, Trey turned at once to Stella. “Mom! Where did you send Pete?”

“I don’t know,” Stella replied. “That was arranged by your grandmother’s people. Even if I did know, I couldn’t tell you. But rest assured, the Fox family won’t lay a hand on a child. If you want to see Pete sooner, then do exactly as your grandmother says.’

Seeing Trey like this, Stella felt both anger and a trace of heartache.

Just look at what Angela had done to her son-raising someone else’s child and even growing attached to him.

“Mom, actually Pete…” Trey’s face flushed with urgency. The truth nearly spilled from his lips, but at the last moment, under Stella’s searching gaze, he clenched his teeth and swallowed the words back down.

“Actually what?” Stella asked, suspicious. “Don’t tell me you’re still hiding something from me.”

“Pete can’t be left alone,” Trey said through gritted teeth, his fists clenched. “If something happens to him because of this, what then?”

“If anything happens, that’s Angela’s fault,” Stella said coldly. “Besides, didn’t Pete grow up in an orphanage? With someone looking after him for the time being, is he really going to die?”

Her words cut into Trey’s heart like a knife.

“In any case, think it through carefully,” Stella added with a final warning. “Your father will be back in a couple of days. If you don’t handle this properly, don’t even think about staying-not just in this family, but in the company
