“Outstanding?” Rione laughed coldly. “You mean the man who got thrown out of the Hawthorne family, had his leg crippled, and go crushed so badly by Alexander that he’s basically a stray dog now?”

Camille’s face burned with humiliation

“Let me remind you of something,” Riona continued lazily. “The only reason you were able to return to the Sterling family is because you happen to carry Sterling blood.

“Being acknowledged as a Sterling heiress is already more than enough fortune for someone like you.

“And yet you still dare ask for more?”

The disdain on her face was completely undisguised.

At first, when Riona learned that Camille had managed to push Elena aside and steal Sebastian away from her, she thought Camille might actually have some intelligence.

She had even briefly considered grooming her.

After all, one day, she still intended to settle the score with Elena.

But clearly-

She had overestimated Camille.

The girl was hopelessly lovestruck.

Looking back now, Elena had probably only lost because she cared too much about Sebastian back then, which gave someone like Camille the chance to walk all over her.

Camille was so humiliated she wished she could disappear into the floor.

“Aunt Riona… I only meant…”

“From now on,” Riona interrupted coolly, “don’t bring random people to see me.”

Then she paused briefly before correcting herself.

“Actually, forget that.

“You don’t need to come looking for me anymore either.

“If you need something, go speak to the old man directly.”

She had absolutely no interest in dealing with idiots.

“That’s enough!”

Victoria finally exploded.

She had been holding back her anger since the beginnitig of the evening, but hearing Riona repeatedly insult Sebastian completely shattered her patience.

“And who exactly do you think you are?” Victoria snapped furiously as she stood up. “What gives you the right to sit there criticizing my son?

“You people should worry about surviving in Northbridge before acting like you own the city.”

Victoria had always been notoriously aggressive.

At this point, she no longer cared about appearances at all

She pointed directly at Riona while yelling loudly enough that nearly the entire exhibition hall could hear

her.

Even people downstairs had started looking up curiously.

Riona and Zoe were both stunned.

Especially Riona.

Her expression darkened instantly.

“Camille,” she said coldly, “this is your wonderful mother–in–law?”

“Aunt Riona, I…”

Camille panicked completely.

“Mom, please stop talking…”

She had never felt this embarrassed in her life.

Desperately, she tried pulling Victoria back down into her seat, only for Victoria to violently shake her off.

“Why are you stopping me?” Victoria shouted. “Did I say anything wrong?

“You’re supposedly a Sterling heiress, yet you’re completely useless.

“Your husband is being humiliated outside, and instead of helping him, you’re siding with outsiders?”

Riona’s expression turned icy.

“What an uncivilized shrew.”

“Security. Remove her immediately.”

Several staff members quickly rushed over.

Naturally, they recognized both the Sterling family and Victoria.

But compared to offending Victoria, nobody in Northbridge wanted to offend the Sterlings.

Chapter 382 A–Fallen Socialite

Mrs. Hawthorne,” one of the employees said awkwardly, “please leave the premises.”

Victoria nearly choked from rage.

She had spent decades in Northbridge society.

Finished

Ever since before she married Victor, she had always been treated like royalty at every gala and social event she attended.

And now-

Anyone and everyone thought they could humiliate her.

“Are you all blind?” Victoria screamed furiously. “I’m the matriarch of the Hawthorne family!

r

“Your boss used to beg me to attend events here, and now you people dare throw me out?”

She forcefully shook off the employee’s hand and lifted her chin arrogantly.

The second she finished speaking, Riona suddenly laughed.

“The matriarch of the Hawthorne family?

“Victor may never even walk out of prison alive.

“And from what I heard, Charles already kicked your entire branch of the family out of Hawthorne Manor.”

She looked Victoria up and down mockingly.

“You really do have thick skin if you can still call yourself that with a straight face.”

Laughter immediately erupted downstairs.

“Isn’t that Victoria Hawthorne?

“I heard Charles completely removed Sebastian’s side of the family from Hawthorne Group. She still has the nerve to act superior?

“I’ve disliked her for years.

“Didn’t she manipulate the whole situation between Sebastian and Elena back then? I heard she was the one pressuring Sebastian to deceive Elena in the first place.

“What a nightmare of a mother–in–law.

“Seriously, any woman who marries into that family is doomed.”

The same people who once flattered Victoria nonstop were now eagerly mocking her behind her back.

Victoria had never been someone who tolerated humiliation quietly.
