Chapter 271
Hillary decided not to argue with Ana. She believed that with Tyler around, Ana wouldn’t stand a chance of winning anyway.
With a smile, she remarked, “This is the Harris‘ home indeed, but if I’m not mistaken, Ms. Ana’s last name isn’t Harris, right?”
Olivia became even quieter after hearing that. Deep down, she didn’t want Hillary and Ana to fight. She was worried that it might upset Ana and even cause trouble for Naomi.
But Hillary didn’t seem to consider this.
Seeing Ben not responding, Hillary walked away feeling victorious. Just then, Maisy appeared. Standing at the doorway, she challenged, “I want to see who dares to misbehave in my house!”
Olivia was shocked and immediately looked at the door.
Hillary was also surprised to see Maisy, and she was even more shocked when she saw Ana standing behind her, looking smug. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“So, according to your logic, I shouldn’t have the right to ask you to leave either, since my last name isn’t Harris?” Maisy confronted Hillary.
No matter how gutsy Hillary was, she was startled the moment she saw Maisy. She didn’t expect her to suddenly appear.
She wanted to explain, but Maisy cut her off and instructed Ben, “Get her out of here! We don’t welcome clingy, filthy rats like this!”
Ben nodded and went to call security.
Olivia was stunned by Maisy’s anger, realizing this was more than just about not liking Hillary. Now, Maisy was forcefully sending her away, showing no concern for how this might affect their relations or how Naomi might feel about it.
It looked more like Maisy and Ana showing their contempt for Naomi.
Olivia was getting more and more nervous. Right when she was about to speak, Tyler came out of his study because of the commotion. He walked into the bedroom and saw Ben bringing two security guards in.
Seeing them, Tyler, standing behind Ana and Maisy, asked, “What’s going on here?”
Ana and Maisy turned to him, while Hillary looked on, confident that these people couldn’t touch her as long as Tyler was around. She was confident now standing there.
Tyler’s gaze was icy as he observed the scene.
Olivia subtly took a step back, sensing the tension.
Maisy stood her ground, saying, “Tyler, we’ve always been a respectful family. I’ve never tolerated such disrespect in our home.”
She had tolerated Naomi and her family all these years, and she had fought with Tyler many times because of them.
Tyler’s expression remained cool. “Shouldn’t you have discussed it with me before deciding to send a guest away?”
“Tyler, are you really defending someone so unreasonable?” Maisy shuddered, clearly
mad.
Tyler glanced at Ana, ignoring her protest. “Grandma is getting old. Why are you dragging her into this? What’s your reason this time?”
Ana scoffed. “Grandma thinks that the mother of a wreck is bad luck for our family.”
