Chapter 2154: Chapter 2154: Marcella Davidson’s Face Slap, Let Me Make Myself Clear
Mrs. Davidson was overwhelmed by this blow, and started coughing violently as she leaned against the bed.
Unfortunately, neither Marcella nor Jaycent stepped forward this time.
Yuni felt sorry for her and stepped forward to pat her back, saying in a tone of disappointment, "Mom, I’ve told you so many times to discuss things with us and ask for our opinions. You never listen, and now look, Nathalie has effectively severed ties with the Davidson Family."
What the Old Lady did earlier was something no person with dignity could accept from the Davidson Family.
Nathalie Quinlan’s personality is typical of responding to gentleness rather than hardness.
Mrs. Davidson stubbornly chose the hard way with her. She orchestrated this contract fiasco, and now it looks ridiculous!
Mrs. Davidson said dismissively, "No matter how outstanding she is, she’s not part of our Davidson Family. The inheritance must stay within our family. It’s not like we’re extinct; there’s no reason to let an outsider inherit."
Everyone found her words laughable.
If it were before, Mrs. Davidson might have echoed her words and agreed with her.
But now, it’s not about whether Nathalie should inherit or not; it’s about the fact that their outrageous play drove Nathalie to sever ties with them!
The sea behind Nathalie Quinlan runs too deep, and the Old Lady now regrets her impetuousness, letting things spiral to an irretrievable state.
Mrs. Davidson continued, "Leony is also a member of the Level 8 laboratory, no worse than an outsider."
"Tsk." Jaycent couldn’t stand it any longer hearing this and told Yuni, "Mom, I have things to do, I’ll be heading off."
Yuni knew her son’s thoughts and, despite being angry and amused, gracefully replied, "Send me a message when you get back."
"I know." Jaycent replied.
Before leaving, Jaycent walked courteously to the bedside to tell the Old Lady goodbye, "Grandma, I’ll come see you again in a few days."
The Old Lady was absorbed in the blow, and absentmindedly said a few words to him.
Jaycent gave a parting word to Marcella and Kenzie Nabours.
He turned and left.
Throughout, he didn’t exchange greetings with Mrs. Davidson, Marcella, or Yuni, as if they were strangers.
Mrs. Davidson felt like she had been slapped in the face, her cheeks burning, and she couldn’t continue her talk.
This Jaycent!
He really didn’t give her any face!
Mood swings made the Old Lady’s blood pressure soar, so Yuni fetched the doctor, who conducted another round of examinations.
This time, the Old Lady was genuinely sick.
High blood pressure, intense emotional fluctuations.
She was advised to be hospitalized for rest.
After the doctor left, the usually silent Marcella suddenly tightened her face and spoke deliberately to everyone in the hospital room, "Mom, sister-in-law, since you’re all here today, I’ll make things clear."
The Old Lady was weakly lying in bed, unable to catch her breath for a while.
Seeing Marcella like this, Mrs. Davidson had a bad feeling and urgently tried to sit up, calling Marcella’s name repeatedly, trying to stop her from speaking further, "Marcella, don’t be angry. This time it’s my fault for not negotiating with you, don’t blame Leony and the others..."
Kenzie supported Marcella, silently standing by the woman’s side, like a solid support.
Marcella’s arm was strongly held by his hand, it seemed to give her strength as well, and she ignored the Old Lady’s intervention.
