An hour later, Leon walked into the Riddle family mansion.
To his surprise, Hattie was back too.
She was led by Leon, her face was pale, and her features were cold.
In the hall, Daphne sat in the first seat, propping her head up with her hand, her eyes closed, and her old face filled with grief and exhaustion.
Hunter paced anxiously at the door.
Manny sat further away, holding Kaitlyn's hand, not allowing her to disturb the elderly. There seemed to be a hint of bitterness in her expression.
Hearing footsteps, Hunter turned around and saw his eldest daughter. He remembered how she always opposed him in everything, and was about to get angry subconsciously. But when he saw Leon, he restrained himself and said, "Why did you come back so late? Don't you know Grandma has been waiting for a long time?"
Hattie gave him a cold glance, twisted her gaze away, seeming to find even looking at him disgusting.
Hunter's face turned instantly grim, "You--"
A warm and soft hand suddenly reached out and grabbed his hand. Hunter turned his head and saw his beautiful wife's face. She tossed her sleeves and temporarily suppressed his anger.
Manny led Kaitlyn forward and humbly looked at Hattie, softly saying, "Please come in. The old lady has been waiting for you for a long time."
When Hattie saw her, she became like a prickly little beast, with sharp and fierce eyes.
She seemed to want to pounce and tear the other person apart, but Leon pressed her down first.
Leon smiled, but there was no trace of laughter in his eyes, "Mandy, Hattie's mood hasn't been good lately, so she doesn't want to see you. Please avoid her voluntarily, understand?"
Hunter's complexion, which had just turned around, became unsightly again, "Leon, this is your aunt. What kind of language is that?"
Hattie struggled, and her expression became even more ferocious.
Leon picked her up and patted her head, "My aunt died not long ago. Everyone in the capital knows that she was at most just a mistress. When did a mistress dare to be so arrogant and show up in front of the Young Miss?"
By the end of his words, an endless chill had been added to his tone.
Hunter was about to get angry, but Manny's eyes turned red, and she held his hand tightly, giving a bitter smile, "You are right. I will remember my identity and won't dare to appear casually and obstruct the Young Miss again."
After speaking, she automatically stepped back a few steps.
Hunter was so angry that he trembled all over, but he couldn't do anything to Leon. He gave Hattie a fierce look and turned to Daphne, "Mom, look at them--"
"That's enough!" Daphne slammed the teacup on the table to the ground with a loud noise, and said angrily, "Your daughter is sick. Can't you see that? It's already this late, why can't you care more about her?"
Hunter's face turned from green to white as he was scolded.
Manny stood obediently aside with lowered eyebrows and gentle eyes.
Kaitlyn's eyes were teary and her face was full of grievances as she looked at Daphne, feeling dissatisfied in her heart.

The readers' comments on the novel: Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
From the beginning of the story to page 148, the plot is just going in circles about fighting. So ridiculous and waste of time to read! I have no patience for these kind stories. Be more creative if you’re planning to write a book/story!!!...
Beautiful story...
