The Queen Returns—And She's Unforgiving novel Chapter 47

Evelyn rushed to a private courtyard restaurant. The place was so high-class that reservations were fully booked every day.

As soon as she stepped in, Justine, who looked extremely furious, was seen sitting next to Lily with her hair in a tangled mess.

"What happened here?" Her expression turned cold as she stepped forward to check if Justine was hurt and noticed scratch marks on her neck.

Lily started pointing fingers at her. "You're both the same, always acting like unreasonable shrews!"

Justine stood up and yelled back, "And you think you're so right?"

Gritting her teeth, she continued, "If I hadn't come here in the first place, I wouldn't even know that your father had brought this illegitimate daughter of his to meet Lucas. He was obviously trying to set them up! Shameless!"

Apparently, Justine had overheard their conversation in a private room when she first arrived.

Derek had introduced his illegitimate daughter to Lucas, hoping she would learn a thing or two from him.

But what exactly was she supposed to learn from him? To learn how to serve a man with respect?

Lily knew Justine always spoke without filtering her words, but she couldn't handle the humiliation of being exposed in public like that. Infuriated, she walked up to Justine and asked, "Do you always talk with a mouth that nasty?"

Evelyn pulled Justine behind her. She was in shock. She didn't know Derek could be this heartless to his own blood.

It was already heartbreaking that she was unloved and unappreciated by Lucas. Not only did her father show no concern for her well-being, but he also became the very knife that stabbed her in the back, adding insult to injury.

She took a deep breath. She then turned to Lily with an ice cold gaze and said, "It doesn't matter. If you've hurt someone, then you should apologize."

Lily sneered, unfazed by her intimidation. "Oh Evelyn. If I were you, I'd be too ashamed to even show up here. You married Mr. Grant, swallowed your pride, yet you still can't win his heart. Have you ever thought about why Mr. Grant despises you so much?"

Lucas already hated Evelyn's appearance, so he wasn't even willing to touch her body. How could she live with being such a failure?

Evelyn looked at Lily coldly and mocked, "So, does it look like you're succeeding?"

Lily's expression went stiff for a moment. "Why do you care?"

"Why would I care? You Harrisons are the ones with no dignity here. Do you want me to announce to the world that you're trying to steal my husband?"

Another voice abruptly interrupted them. "Evelyn, do you have no shame? We're doing this for your own good."
