Mandy looked at Joel’s disgusted expression, having a disdain smirk on her otherwise innocent face, which didn’t match her denture appearance. She despised men who lived off women, so naturally, she looked down on Joel as well. She thought that no matter how elegant he pretended to lie, he was just another man who lived by pleasing women.
Mandy had seen all kinds of men who lived off Monica. No matter what their initial attitudes were, in the end, they all groveled for money, and when discarded, they would come back desperately begging.
Mandy glanced at Joel. “In our circle, it’s all ab
it’s all about fun. And when it comes to marriage, we’ll still marry someone rich and noble?
Joel felt the contempt, his frown deepened, his face burning with embarrassment. He gritted his teeth, the shame making him extremely uncomfortable.
“Don’t talk nonsense, Mandy. Joel is very close to me and I know he’s not like those men, Vanessa said, “Stop making fun of him, Monica He’sa decent person. He can’t handle your boring jokes
Monica just smirked without saying a word. Mandy, however, was blunt. “Didn’t you say your uncle’s family came from the countryside! Even if they are your relatives, they’re not considered people of any statis, right? A family that relies on others won’t last long. He’s not that different from those inen. Just because he has a good–looking face doesn’t mean he’s anything special. He can marry a wealthy woman who loves his appearance”
Vanessa just gave an embarrassed smile. She didn’t care about Joel’s feelings at all. After all, he was just an object for her to show off. “Alright, let’s not talk about this. I’m here for some fun. Let’s go inside.”
Vanessa was about to go inside with Joel, but when she felt that he wasn’t moving, she frowned in discontent. “Don’t forget what Aunt Layla said, joel. She wanted you to take good care of me tonight. You don’t want me to complain to her, do you My friends like to joke around, and you can’t take it seriously.”
Joel took a deep breath and pulled his hand back. “Have fun. I’m going back.”“
“Joe” Vanessa stamped her foot. “Are you going to embarrass me?”
Mandy sneered and said,
- d. “Still so proud while living off others. What a joke”
Joel’s dignity was completely shattered. He realized that even though they were considered family, they were treated more like outsiders within the Larson family. There was even no pretension of harmony, just disdain and disregard.
Tsit the way of the world‘ Joel thought, feeling downhearted and sad.
Vanessa pursed her lips and yelled angrily, “I count to three, Joel, and if you don’t go inside with me. I’ll
At this moment, Joel’s expression had darkened. He couldn’t accept his dignity being hurt.
The sound of footsteps approached. Out of the corner of his eye, Joel saw someone coming. He didn’t p made him glance over.
get angry!
pay much attention but the familiar figure
Madeline, escorted by Eugene and Gavin, walked to the center of a crowd. She wore a beige knit sweater over a purple dress, looking very stylish.
Her long hair flowed gracefully, glowing softly in the light, and her makeup was light but stunning She looked extremely pretty, with an air of b elegance and a noble demeanor.

Seeing them blocking the way, Gavin was a bit annoyed, “If you’re discussing shady deals, do it somewhere else. Don’t disgrace yourselves here Believe it or not, I’ll call the police if you don’t fuck off. He was tall, handsome, and sharp as a young man, speaking bluntly
Beside him was Eugene, a well–known figure in high society. As a wealthy young man with a reputation, he didn’t need to speak to be recognized. After all, no one dared disrespect him.
Monica was about to love her temper, but upon seeing Eugene, she swallowed her anger. After all, this club was Eugene’s property, and if she angered hain, she and her friends wouldn’t even be able to leave alive.
However, when Monica saw Madeline escorted by two handsome men, she frowned deeply and roared. “Madeline”
Jori also frowned, staring at Madeline in a dare. “What are you doing here?”
Madeline didn’t care much about them. She looked aloof and exceptionally cold. She bent down, picked up the room card that Monica had accidentally dropped on the ground, and examined it
With a slight smirk, she landed it back to Monica. Being rich is nothing impressive. And forcing people to do what they hate is disquding

Chapter 252
Monica’s face tumed purple with anger as she snatched her room card back. She blurted out angrily. “It’s none of y
your business!”
Cavin stepped forward directly, pinning Monica against the wall. He pinched her neck with his arm tightly and glared at her. “One more word and I’ll kill you.
Despite Gavin’s cheerful demeanor around Madeline and his efforts to maintain a sunny image at school, he was actually one of the Zodiac of Asuras. He was far from a benign presence,
Monica’s blood ran cold as she felt suffocated under Gavin’s grip. Her heart pounded as she clutched her room card, struggling and gasping, “Let me go. I’ll shut up!”
as
The threat of violence felt as overwhelming as a mountain pressing down on her, and she genuinely feared for her life.
Vanessa also panicked. Tell him to let Monica go, Madeline! She’s the daughter of the Williams family, and if anything happens to her, you’ll be in
trouble!
Mandy, however, was observing Gavin, speculating about his identity and family background. She thought, “Whoever stands next to Mr. Sharp and exudes an aura of power is clearly no minor player‘
“Trouble?” Eugene snorted. The Williams family will be in trouble if they offend Madeline, okay? Do they think they’re the ruler of japrium?”
Vanessa shuddered all over and became docile, her eyes showing some fear. “Please don’t take it personally. Mr. Sharp. Let Monica go. She didn’t
mean it.”
Even though Vanessa was furious, the thought of how Berce Madeline could be, and considering how even Ruth was subdued by Eugene, she felt scared. She knew all too well that any involvement with Madeline always led to her misfortune
Joct looked at the composed Madeline, whose eyes showed no emotion. She seemed indifferent to what happened.
As he was staring at her, Madeline suddenly turned her head and met his gaze, smiling faintly. “How did you end up like this? Seeing you in this state makes me quite happy. Joel How does it feel to be humiliated!”
Joel stiffened, feeling as if a heavy weight was crushing him, preventing him from raising it or looking at Madeline. I’m sorry… I shouldn’t have been so biased against you before. This feeling is really hard to bear
Madeline raised her eyebrows, somewhat surprised
