Seeing that, Zayron quickly shielded Susan and headbutted Waverly. Upon impact, Waverly staggered backward and plopped right down on the staircase.
“How dare you? Someone throw these b*stards out!” Waverly yelled.
Despite hearing those words, the servants stood still and exchanged glances. The Shurmer family is now under Mr. Zeke's control, so we should only take orders from him.
Waverly let out a chuckle in exasperation and glared at Zeke, who was standing by the main entrance. While gritting her teeth, she fumed, “Why did you bring them here? Do you still want Bailey to come back and reclaim her identity?”
Zeke ignored her and grabbed Susan's hand. “Let's go. I'll bring you guys to check out your rooms. If any of you don't like what you see, we can make some changes.”
Susan broke into a smile and hugged Zeke's legs. “I want to sleep with you, Uncle Zeke!”
The look in Zeke's eyes softened when he gazed at Susan. I bet Bay was just as adorable when she was little. I've missed out on watching Bay grow up. Now, I'm going to make it up to her by loving my niece.
“Sure! You'll be sleeping with me,” Zeke answered.
“Mom, why are you on the floor?” Zoey yelled and rushed down the stairs before helping Waverly up.
Zayron and Maxton exchanged looks and saw each other's ill intentions.
“Hmph! How shameless can you be? You know you're not the Shurmer family's biological daughter. Yet, you're holding on to my mommy's position in the family.”
“Exactly! What a shameless woman! If I were you, I would've packed up and left. Because of you, the rightful daughter of the family can't even return home. Does God know how pretentious you are?”
“I don't think God knows. Otherwise, she would've been taken off the face of the earth already.”
“That's true. Well, it's not too late now. So many are dying every day. Why hasn't this pretentious woman died?”
The brothers were doing a good job mocking Zoey.
When Zoey heard those remarks, she turned to look at Waverly with her teary eyes.
“M-Mom, I never intended to snatch Bailey's identity. If you want her back, I'll still treat her as a sister. However, she's crossing the line by asking her kids to mock me,” Zoey uttered.
Waverly shot Maxton and Zayron a cold look and thundered, “Shut up! If you keep spewing nonsense, I'm going to call the police.”
Zayron spat in disgust, and Maxton followed suit.
Zoey then turned to look at Steven with her watery eyes and choked out tearfully, “It seems like the house doesn't have a spot for me anymore. Dad, Mom, perhaps you guys should just chase me out. Now that the kids are already here, it's safe to assume Bailey is also coming home soon. I don't want to embarrass myself by staying here any longer. Please, just let me go.”
Upon hearing those words, Zayron hunched over and gagged.
Again, Maxton did the same thing.
“How disgusting!”
“How shameless!”
Waverly was so angry that her knees went weak, and she fell heavily onto the staircase again.
Zeke then lowered his head slightly and curled his lips into a grin. It seems like bringing these kids back to the Shurmer residence is a good idea.
“Let's go. I'll bring you guys up to rest,” Zeke said.
“Sure! However, I want my room to be far away from the pretentious woman's room.”
“Yes. The further, the better.”
Waverly was gritting her teeth as she watched Zeke bring the kids upstairs. “B*stard! Is he trying to give me a heart attack?”
Steven took a glance at her and said, “He went to the bar to get drunk yesterday. Have you ever seen him go to a bar? Waverly, your relationship with your son is really going down the hill.”
