Chapter 353 Unreasonable
Seeing as Willow and Kate were about to get into a fight, Saul quickly said, “Let’s just all calm down. Willow’s probably in a bad mood right now.
“After all, she’s the CEO of Southlake Corporation. She must be very busy all day. It’s normal for her to get irritated easily…”
“Oh, stop with your nonsense! Don’t bother acting in front of me, Saul! Even if others don’t know what the Masseys have done, I know everything!” Willow snapped in fury.
She was disgusted by Saul’s attempt to be the good guy.
Saul felt humiliated. After all, he was still Willow’s uncle, yet she insulted him without showing him any respect!
He assumed that she had grown haughty ever since she became the CEO of Southlake Corporation.
His eyes flashed viciously, but he soon composed himself.
Alas, Caspian, who was standing in silence, caught the fleeting change in Saul’s emotions.
He quietly watched as the scene unfolded, trying to see what Saul and the Masseys were up to.
“Willow, did you get the wrong idea about me somehow? We should spend more time together. I know you’re under a lot of pressure at work. I won’t hold this against you,” Saul said with a forced smile.
Willow remained expressionless. She didn’t buy a single thing Saul said.
Before she became the CEO of Southlake Corporation, the Masseys kept saying her husband was a useless piece of trash and called her a disgrace to the family.

Who knew how powerful the Masseys could’ve become with the help of Southlake Corporation?
“Look how sincere your uncle’s being, Willow, and look at you! You threw a tantrum the moment you came into the house. We’re your elders, you know. Shouldn’t you be a little more polite?” Kate rebuked.
Willow was infuriated, She couldn’t believe that Kate had the gall to lecture her.
Fearing that she would lose her composure, she kept quiet and sat down on the couch.
As Willow hadn’t responded, Kate dared not say anything else.
In the past, she would’ve most definitely continued lecturing Willow. But as she needed to convince Willow and Caspian to help the Masseys later, she figured it was best if she didn’t press the matter now.
Just then, Cora and Flora entered the house.
Cora was dressed shabbily, and she looked uncomfortable. Flora stuck close to Cora and looked around timidly.
“Where did these two beggars come from? Who allowed you to enter the house?” Kate screeched.
She thought Cora and Flora were beggars. In fact, even beggars dressed better than they did. “Uh…” Cora stammered. She didn’t know what to say.
It was her first time entering such a massive house, and she felt incredibly uncomfortable.
“Mom! Stay out of this. I hired Madam Upton to be my housekeeper,” Willow said with a frown.
“What did you say?” Kate exclaimed. “Why did you hire a beggar? And look! She even has a retard with her!”
“Thank you for all your help, Ms. Stewart. You’ve already done a lot for me. I think we should go,” Cora said. The fi
