The Billionaire Ex-Wife and the Beggar He Became novel Chapter 357

"You… you old hag! The only reason I'm here is because you've backed my family into a corner! Do you have any idea how shameful your actions are?" Old Mrs. Shepherd was already seething with resentment, and Helga's command was the spark that ignited the powder keg.

"You're the old hag, you old parasite! If you're not willing to kneel to my grandmother, then get out!" Mia shot back, her hands on her hips.

Old Mrs. Shepherd immediately fell silent. Based on the ruthless tactics of Yves Prescott and his thugs, it was highly likely her entire family would be sleeping on the streets tonight. It was true that her future grandson-in-law was Julian, but she had just taken ten billion from him. Furthermore, before the wedding, she still needed to tell him about that important matter. So, at this moment, no matter how humiliated she felt, she had to endure it.

*Enduring humiliation is the key to survival,* she told herself.

Even with this thought, Old Mrs. Shepherd looked at Helga and Mia with defiant eyes. "My husband and I can kneel, but you have to give us, two frail old people, a good reason."

She glanced at Winona, who had remained silent, and adopted a pitiful tone. "You can't just expect us to kneel because the Shepherd family selflessly raised someone else's child for sixteen years, only for that child to steal my granddaughter's husband and then turn on us like a rabid dog, trying to destroy our entire family."

"Old Mrs. Shepherd, are you talking about me? If so, please say it directly. Making veiled accusations isn't something a highly-educated woman like yourself should do," Winona said, her expression calm.

Old Mrs. Shepherd's voice was filled with sorrow and grievance. "I am talking about you! Stealing Felly's man! Ungrateful! And now you bite the hand that fed you! Was it wrong for the Shepherd family to raise you? Did we raise an enemy?"
