Became A Queen After divorce

Parker will inherit the title in the future, and he can walk without fear in Zheemond.

Even Declan, who were powerful in business and criminal world, has to show Duke Austen some respect. Miss Pearl has caused a big trouble this time.

Sam had seen Parker at a ball, and his impression of the latter can be summed up in one phrase: a debauched commoner!

However, his father, Duke Austen, is a cunning and terrifying figure.

If Declan really offends him, he won’t gain any benefits!

He didn’t want to get involved, but the matter involved a third party, so Sam had to ask a question.

“How is Parker doing?”

The bald man sighed deeply and answered him with one word: Tragic!

“Put it more seriously, it should be catas… tas”

At this point, Sam patiently corrected the bald man. “Catastrophic.”

“Thank you, Mr. Hurst, for telling me how t speak that world!”

“Sometimes, force is not the only way to solve problems but the last resort.”

The bald man listened to his words with confusion.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

It was probably Sam telling him to study hard if he wanted to fare better in the future.

In truth, the bald man didn’t understand Sam at all.

He appeared gentle, but his methods were even more ruthless than Blaine’s when it came to killing;

He was cruel yet he would attend his brothers’ funerals in person and provide assistance to their widows and children.

His men both respected and feared him, but they also deeply admired him.

In any case, being able to work for Blaine was their fortune!

The bald man suddenly looked as if he had been revitalized, blushing and assuring him in an impassioned voice.

“Yes, thank you for your teachings, Mr. Hurst. I’ll remember. I must strive to be a cultured thug and not embarrass you!”

…

With lights shining brightly in Gilliam Mansion, before Sam could enter the door, he heard a series of curses coming from inside. He paused his steps, choosing to wait at the door.

“Where has Pearl gone?”

“Get a few people to find her for me. I must teach her a good lesson this time. She really doesn’t know her place!”

Brody stood respectfully with his hands in front of him.

Seeing that his boss was really angry this time, he quickly spoke up to comfort him:

“Sir, please don’t be angry. Your health is not good, it’s not worth getting upset.”

“I think Miss Pearl must know she’s wrong. She’s probably hiding to avoid your punishment.”

Having watched Miss Pearl grow up, Brody naturally couldn’t bear to see her being punished, so he spoke up for her in front of Declan.

However, this time, the situation was serious and couldn’t be resolved by just spending money.

“Brody, don’t pamper her anymore. Pearl doesn’t know how to behave because I protected her too well from a young age, making her unaware of what it means to be obedient!”

The short-haired woman sitting on the side had a cold appearance, her temperament frosty and sharp.

Just her presence alone exuded an invisible pressure, making it hard to breathe.

Only Mr. Gilliam could remain unaffected. The others didn’t dare to lift their heads to look at her, let alone get too close.

Upon hearing the news of Miss Pearl’s making trouble again, her expression remained calm, as if she was used to it.

“Father is right. Pearl has gone too far, daring to break Lord Parker’s ribs.”

“She’s not a child anymore, she will graduate from university next summer. She can’t always live under our protective cover.”

“This…”

Although Mr. Gilliam only said it casually, he was not determined in his heart, Libby’s admonishment woke him up.

“You are right; I can’t protect her forever. It’s time to give her a lesson and tame her unruly behavior.”

“Sir…”

Brody wanted to plead again for mercy, but Miss Camilla in Mr. Gilliam’s arms interrupted him.

“Miss Pearl needs to be educated. If she had half the intelligence and sensibility as Miss Libby… Dear, you don’t have to worry about her.”

Camilla thought that her aside could please Libby who held all the power.

Little did she know that her words made her end up being scolded.

Libby had always been bothered by the fact that she was not Declan’s biological daughter, and this had a significant impact on her quest for power.

Considering that her adoptive father favored his biological daughter, she had to work even harder and be even more outstanding in order to earn his respect.

At the moment, having just caused trouble in the past and with her adoptive father already in a bad mood, trying to assert her presence in front of him would only backfire and make him think she had ulterior motives.

Why was this woman so foolish?

Infuriated, Libby reprimanded Camilla in front of Declan, saying, “Shut up! It’s not your turn to speak here.”

Her icy tone showed that she didn’t show any respect for Camilla, Declan’s new lover.

Feeling wronged, she clung to Declan’s arm and coquettishly complained, “Darling, look at her attitude…”

“Regardless, I belong to you, not her. Miss Libby is being too disrespectful to me. I was only complimenting her without ill intentions.”

By daring to act in such a manner, Miss Libby was certain that her value in the eyes of her adoptive father was higher than that of the other woman.

Over the years, she had seen how many women her adoptive father brought home, and none of them lasted long.

Some stayed for just one night, while others were kicked out after half a year.

In her eyes, Camilla was nothing more than a toy bought by her adoptive father, destined to be discarded once the novelty wore off.

Therefore, her adoptive father would never scold her.

Every person and everything’s value had already been assessed in Declan’s mind.

When he chose one side, it meant that the other was not important to him.

Compared to the foster daughter and capable assistant he had nurtured for over a decade, Camilla seemed insignificant.

“Libby is right, you have no right to speak here. Go upstairs or get out of the mansion!”

Declan’s attitude made Libby very happy.

See, the one her adoptive father values more is her!

While Camilla, who had been slapped in the face, was in tears, Caitlyn covered her face and looked at Declan.

It seems that Miss Libby is not easy to win over. She should think of other ways.
