Nicole deliberately did not lower her voice.
As soon as she spoke, the attention of everyone on this side of the banquet hall was drawn to her.
The atmosphere was frozen.
A chill spread.
Jade's face instantly turned red with anger. "You...
You’re so uncultured! How dare you talk to your elders like that?!”
Nicole cast her a disdainful sidelong glance.
It was just a glance, and she did not say anything, but i t explained everything.
Elder?
Was she worthy?
A homewrecker did not deserve to be respected by others.
Lydia gnawed on her lower lips as her body tensed up. Her face flushed red with anger.
She originally wanted to take this opportunity to socialize with other gentries and get close to Eric.
However, everyone now knew the fact that she was not in fact a Stanton.
Instead of running away like this, she might as well grit her teeth and make Nicole seem cold and cruel instead.
No one would benefit from this farce!
Lydia lowered her voice and sounded like she was about to cry from being bullied by Nicole.
"Nicole, how could you say something so mean?”
Nicole glanced at her expressionlessly and spoke in a cold voice.
"What are you acting innocent for? I can say meaner stuff. Do you want to hear them?"
Nicole could not be bothered with Lydia's act.
This mother-daughter pair was so arrogant and shameless enough to cling to the Stanton family.
In that case, Nicole would not mind stripping their disguise so that they would never be able to face anyone ever again.
Lydia’s lips trembled as she felt the intent stares on her.
She did not have the guts to confront Nicole head-on.
However, was she supposed to bow her head and admit defeat?
She could not do that either.
