Chapter 25 - 23 A Chess Piece
"I’m not suited for school; I’m more suited for the Owen Clan." Faced with his grandfather’s nitpicking, Liam not only wasn’t angry but even followed his words, mentioning the Owen Clan Group, making him feel like he had a thorn in his heart, even more uncomfortable.
"How can that be possible? As a descendent of the Spencer Family, you must excel in any field, especially since school is the most straightforward place. Look, during the time you were managing the school, even your two sisters at home were beyond your control, and it ended up with the police involvement. This was not handled well."
"Dad, last night’s incident was all a misunderstanding, all caused by that little troublemaker Maya; it’s actually not that serious."
Aunt Hannah was afraid that last night’s incident would implicate Elia, affecting her future inheritance, so she was eager to blame Maya.
"Shut up! I know who is good and who is bad in this family, who loves to make trouble; do you really think I’m senile?"
"Pfft!" Jane Spencer couldn’t help but laugh listening to her grandfather’s reprimand and then hurriedly served a bowl of soup to Old Master Spencer, saying, "Grandpa, don’t be angry, have some soup."
Old Master Spencer’s attitude today really left Maya puzzled. Usually, Grandpa didn’t like her. Could it be that this time everyone thought Aunt Hannah’s actions were too much and knew she was wronged? Thinking of this, Maya suddenly felt a bit warm in her heart.
Across the table, Aunt Hannah looked at Maya’s relaxed expression and gritted her teeth with hatred. She not only hated Maya but also resented Jane, thinking, if it weren’t for Jane instigating things in front of Grandpa, how could Grandpa protect that little demon?
She could do nothing to Jane; Jane was Grandpa’s favorite granddaughter. Whatever good things, Grandpa thinks only of her, allowing her to stay in the company’s headquarters and make her the chairman’s assistant, so she didn’t dare to provoke Jane.
"Elia, how’s your studying recently?" Old Master Spencer took a sip of soup and then looked at Elia, inquiring about her grades.
