Chapter 107 - 107: Brat
Juliana looked at her, "Nothing. I just want to be a brat."
Miriam's temper rose again and she went on howling, "You uncultured troublemaker! How dare you hit and scold your aunt! You are not a child of the Lewis family."
At that moment, the maid hurriedly brought a large bucket of water and placed it by Juliana's side.
Juliana looked at Miriam, who was still wailing and cursing her.
She lifted the bucket and poured the water out at Miriam.
"Ah!"
The cold water suddenly poured down, causing Miriam to shiver and scream.
Juliana raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw that there was even ice in the water.
In the heat of the day, Miriam was shivering from the ice water. She raised her hand and pointed at Juliana, "You... You..."
Juliana put down the bucket and looked at Miriam blandly, "See? This is what you called a troublemaker."
Miriam was so furious that her hands were shaking.
Granduncle Danie watched it and tapped the table with his hand, "How can you make a scene like this? Shut up!"
Suzanne told the maid to take Miriam to a hot shower and change her clothes quickly.
Miriam was helped up, still shaking, "Juliana, wait and see."
Suzanne said, "Jill, you're... Oh, you won't listen to me anymore."
Juliana glanced at her indifferently and was in no hurry to see Jermaine. She would like to watch how they were going to act and take the twenty percent share from her.
Granduncle Danie said in a deep voice, "Jill, that is your aunt anyway. You can't do that."
Juliana asked in reply, "What? Granduncle Danie, if someone had called your mother a bitch, would you have been so nice and let it go?"
Granduncle Danie blushed.
Juliana laughed lightly, "If all of you here think you can forget about your own mother being called a bitch, I'll admit my mistake."
The room was silent.
It was generally said that one should not curse a mother.
Granduncle Owen said with a stern face, "Several elders are here. If you told us directly, we would have taught her a lesson for you."
Granduncle Owen was a distant relative but also had a stake in Lewis Group, so he had been invited here as well.
Juliana looked at them with a sneer, "From the moment I walked in the door, Miriam has been calling me a money-loser and insulting my dead mother for at least three minutes, if not five."
"Has any of you said anything to her other than to accusing me?"
They would never stand up for her.
Juliana saw them embarrassed and smiled even more coldly, "Since you can't stand up for me, don't be so hypocritical. Why don't you come straight to the point?"
Suzanne stood out and said, "Jill, they're all elders to you. It's not nice of you to be like this."
Juliana glanced at her, "Your mask of a good stepmother has been torn off your face. Why are you still acting? Even if you're not tired, I'm sick of it."
Granduncle Danie knocked on the table again, "Well, it's not a criticism meeting today. Everyone is here to care about Jill."
Juliana was in no hurry and just watched them, waiting for them to put on a good show.
Granduncle Danie looked at Juliana and asked, "Jill, is it true that you are married to Benson?"
Juliana snorted lightly, "$80 million was invested in Lewis Group. You didn't think it came out of thin air, did you?"
$80 million was the betrothal gift from the Leach family to her, although she was forced to marry Benson.
