Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1773

Her identities and accolades were overwhelmingly vast.

If they really sat down and went through every single one, they wouldn't even have time to finish this dinner.

Monique pressed her lips tightly together, completely failing to grasp where Hannah was going with this.

She didn't dare speak out of turn again.

"And what about the Schwartz family?"

Hannah let out a cold, mocking laugh, her tone slow and deliberate. "Besides having a bit of money and a bit of power, what else do we actually have?"

"Tell me, what else do we have!"

The three Schwartz men exchanged a glance and silently lowered their heads.

"So, yes. I think my second daughter-in-law is absolutely right."

Hannah's tone shifted sharply. "The two families' backgrounds really don't match. Kurt isn't nearly good enough for Ebony Fox."

"!!!"

Monique froze in her chair, practically turning to stone. Her brain short-circuited.

Her Kurt wasn't good enough for Ebony Fox?

This was absolute nonsense! Pure exaggeration!

But as she tried to form a rebuttal, she found herself completely speechless.

Hannah's logic was so flawless she had almost convinced Monique herself.

"Mom—"

Hearing her son being degraded like that, the mother in her couldn't take it. She tried to argue.

"Don't speak yet."

Hannah cut her off, her voice freezing over. "The Schwartz family isn't some untouchable royalty, and we certainly aren't anything people need to beg to be part of."

"It's the twenty-first century. Even a dinosaur like me knows about freedom of love. Stop meddling in your child's romantic life."

"Don't keep pushing until you drive your own son away. It isn't worth it."

Monique listened in silence. Although the words were harsh, thinking about them deeply, they made perfect sense.

She had plotted and planned so desperately, only to almost welcome an absolute disaster into their home.

And now, her son wasn't even speaking to her.

Kurt might look like he didn't take things seriously, but deep down, he was incredibly stubborn.

"Oh, right. There's one more thing you need to know."

Hannah paused for a few seconds, lowering her voice. "Ebony Fox is Juniper's family. And her family is the Schwartz family's family."

"For Annie Ainsworth to dare slander her like that, she has to pay the price."

Not to mention, the girl had blood on her hands.

Attempted murder—whether the victim died or not—proved she was rotten to the core.

Leaving someone like that out in society was basically leaving a ticking time bomb.

"Are you saying..."

Monique hesitated, voicing her concern. "But aren't the Ainsworths close friends with our family? Won't doing this ruin the relationship between us?"

"Then let it be ruined." Hannah slammed the table again. "Raising a monster of a daughter like that? I'd be absolutely humiliated to call them friends."

She then poked Kent beside her. "Say something! Don't just play dead!"

Kent jolted, nodding with a pained, eager expression. "You're absolutely right!"

When she was speaking, did he even have the right to interrupt?

Asking him was completely unnecessary!
