Everyone was shocked.
It was boiled tea water, and it would blister if someone touched it a little bit, not to mention that the whole cup of tea was poured directly on Zoe.
Everyone looked nervously at Zoe, only to find that she had already dodged to the side, unharmed, and the teacup had fallen onto the opposite wall and shattered to pieces.
Everyone was relieved.
When they looked at Faye, they were even more indignant.
Zoe was also a little angry.
She respected Faye and didn’t want to argue with Faye because Faye had raised Henry before.
But that didn’t mean that Faye could do whatever she wanted. Zoe couldn’t stand that Faye targeted her again and again without any reasonable excuse.
With a cold face, Zoe said in a deep voice, “Aunt is old enough anyway. Don’t you understand that you have to wait until the tea is cold?”
“Children in the kindergarten all know it, but you don’t know it. You still blame the person who poured the tea. Where are your eyes and fingers? Can’t you see the white steam coming from it and feel its temperature with your fingers? Why don’t you know it’s hot until it goes into your mouth?”
Faye didn’t expect that Zoe would say that.
As the youngest daughter of the Han family, she had always enjoyed flattery and praise. She had never been humiliated like this before.
But now, the woman in front of her dared to scold her!
The children in the kindergarten were even better than her?
God, who gave this woman so much courage? Did this woman know who she was?
Not only Faye, but also Selena and a group of servants were shocked.
They really admired Zoe’s courage.
In the days without parents, Faye was very likely to be a mother for Henry.
If that was the case, then Faye would be Zoe’s mother-in-law!
How dare Zoe talk to her mother-in-law so rudely?
What a brave woman Zoe was!
Faye was so angry that she screamed loudly, “Who do you think you are? How dare you talk this to me? Do you know that I brought Henry up? You will never be here again as long as I said this to him!”
“I know you brought Henry up, so I have been so polite to you. But in this world, not everyone knows to respect others even if they are treated politely. There are always some people who are arrogant and domineering in others’ place, just relying on their kindness before. In that case, I think I don’t need to tolerate them anymore.”
“You! You!”
Pointing at Zoe, Faye couldn’t speak anything. Her face turned red with anger, but she still had no reason to refute Zoe.
Seeing this, Selena frowned, went forward, and held Faye up.
“Auntie, are you okay?”
It took Faye a long time to calm down. She pointed at Zoe and nodded repeatedly.
“Good, very good! It’s my first time to meet someone who dares to talk to me like this. Just wait and see! I’d like to see who Henry will choose between you and me.”
After saying that, Faye left angrily with Selena.
The servants were so scared that they didn’t dare to make any sound.
It was not until the sound of the engine of the car outside had gone far that Mrs. Dottie walked up to Zoe and said worriedly, “Madam, I’m afraid that she won’t forget this since she left so angrily like that. You…”
Zoe lowered her eyes slightly. After a while, she said in a low voice, “Let her go!”
She got what she had today by her own efforts, not by flattering anyone.
She would abide by the most basic politeness between people, but if someone wanted to bully her, Zoe wouldn’t give in.
No matter who it was!
“But… Mr. Han…”
Mrs. Dottie asked worriedly.
Zoe smiled faintly.
“If he doesn’t believe me, then we will have no need to be a couple.”
Then she left directly.
Mrs. Dottie stood still, confused.
On the other side.
In the Han group.
The door of the Chairman’s office was pushed open heavily. Henry frowned. As soon as he raised his head, he saw Faye in a gorgeous dress and Selena coming in.
“Henry, Archie is working. We…”
“Selena, don’t stop me. That woman dared to do this to me. Shouldn’t I come to ask Henry for an explanation? He has to explain it to me today!”
As the two of them spoke, they walked up to Henry.
Henry stood up and took a look at Brian who was anxious but didn’t dare to stop Faye. Then he withdrew his gaze and looked at Faye in front of him.
With a smile on his handsome face, he asked, “Aunt, when did you come?”
Faye was wearing a white expensive suit. Although she was over forty years old, she still looked charming.
But her angry look really affected her beauty.
She took a deep breath and didn’t answer Henry’s question. Instead, she asked straightforwardly, “Henry, what’s wrong with you? We have introduced so many ladies from famous families to you in Eqitin, but you don’t like them at all. Now you picked so carefully yourself and even found such a ridiculous woman! What’s her advantage? Why did you have to marry her?”
Henry was stunned, but then his face darkened.
“Have you been to the Han Mansion?”
Faye got even angrier when she saw that Henry didn’t answer her question. Henry even asked her in an extremely serious tone.
“What? Is there any treasure hidden so I can’t go there? Yes, I have been there, so what? Henry, what did that woman do to you? Why do you talk to your aunt in such a tone?”Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
As she spoke, her eyes turned red with the grievance.
Her resentment towards Zoe also deepened.
Seeing this, Selena frowned and comforted Faye softly.
“Auntie, don’t say that. Everyone knows that Henry has always been the most respectful to you, right?”
As she spoke, she looked at Henry and winked at him secretly.
But Henry pretended not to see it.
“Aunt, Zoe is not a bad woman, nor is she that kind of woman. She is my wife, and Han Mansion is her home. When you came here, you should have come to the company to find me first. You shouldn’t have come to find trouble for her. Now you didn’t make trouble successfully, so you can’t blame anyone else.”
His tone softened, but Faye refuted angrily.
“Henry Han! What are you talking about? What did you mean by saying that Han Mansion is her home? That’s your place! It’s the Han family’s territory! How can a woman with no use live there like its master?”
“Aunt!”
Henry said with a long face. This time, he became more serious.
With a cold face, he looked at Faye and said in a deep voice, “I’ll repeat it for the last time. She’s my wife!”
Faye was speechless.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was serious, Selena hurried out to mediate.
“Henry, Auntie is just provoked by Zoe. Please don’t take that seriously. And just now…”
She bit her lips and said with difficulty, “Miss Zoe is indeed a little aggressive. Of course, I
didn’t mean she is bad. But aunt is her elder, so she can’t say those words anyway!”
