Chapter 4 Teach The Phony Person A Lesson
After finished calling...
Lucia couldn't fall asleep either.
She stretched herself and got up to go downstairs.
As soon as she arrived at the living hall downstairs, she saw her uncle, Orlando Balstone, and his family visiting.
This family had always been hostile.
Before her grandfather died, he had given most of the ancestral property of the Balstone family to her father. Her uncle held a grudge and came to pick on them sometimes. He had been secretly in cahoots with Kelvin to steal the family property and finally sped up the decline of the Balstone family.
Lucia quietly observed the people in the living hall and saw that Orlando had brought his illegitimate daughter with him today.
If she remembered correctly, the purpose of the visit today was to let his illegitimate daughter work in Balstone Group. Her father was the person in charge of Balstone Group. He had to get her father's permission since Orlando requested a higher position for his illegitimate daughter.
In her previous life, her father did agree to arrange his illegitimate daughter into Balstone Group. However, this illegitimate daughter was so ambitious that she made a mess in the group.
How could she let them succeed again when she was reborn?
She went over carelessly.
"Lucia, come have some tea." The illegitimate daughter, Melody Balstone, handed over a cup of tea, looking very respectful.
Lucia stretched out her hand.
Melody's hand slipped as soon as she took it. The boiling hot tea was about to fall on Lucia's hand. Fortunately, Lucia knew her tricks too well after her rebirth.
In her previous life, Melody had pretended to be pitiful and innocent. She had framed her and even went to bed with Kelvin! Facing this phony person, Lucia would teach her a lesson without hesitation.
At this moment, Lucia quickly grabbed Melody's hand, which was about to leave, and the tea fell on Melody's hand. Her movement was so fast that no one could see it at all.
Melody shouted in the hall, "Ah!"
Then came the sound of the tea cup falling to the ground.
"What's wrong?" Orlando was a little nervous.
"I know Lucia didn't do it on purpose," Melody said hurriedly.
At this moment, Melody pretended pitifully, and her eyes were full of tears. She looked delicate and weak.
It was no wonder that although she was an illegitimate daughter, she was doted on by Orlando.
However, the next second.
"Pa!"
Lucia slapped Melody hard across the face.
Lucia had used all of her strength, thus, causing Melody to be stunned on the spot.
Melody looked at the aggressive Lucia in disbelief.
She knew Lucia too well. She was a woman who followed the rules. She was gentle and would never do such a thing. Lucia could not even bear to see her cry. As long as she cried, she would be soft-hearted.
But now, Lucia had slapped her in the face.
"Do you know that this tea set was Grandpa's favorite when he was alive? Now that it has been broken, can you afford to pay for it?" Lucia berated loudly, full of prestige!
Half of Melody's face was red, and her tears flowed even more. She said, "No, you didn't catch it just now. It was you who just..."
"Did I not catch it, or did you let it go purposely?" Lucia interrupted her. "What's wrong? Did you learn to lie now?"
"No, it's obvious you..." Melody quickly shook her head and looked aggrieved.
"She's still arguing!" Lucia's face was black with rage. "She really isn't the daughter who grew up in Balstone family. She is a disgrace to the Balstone family. She can't even hold a tea cup properly!"
Orlando's expression changed when he heard Lucia's mockery of his daughter.
But he didn't know who was right and wrong just now. In addition, Melody was indeed an illegitimate daughter. It was difficult for her to reach the upper class. He couldn't find a word to refute at the moment, so he could only endure his anger!
"Leilani." Lucia turned to look at Leilani Balstone, Orlando's legitimate daughter. "Your younger sister can't even compare to you in the slightest."
Leilani wasn't in a good relationship with Lucia either.
It was clear that she was the real First young lady of the Balstone family. However, because her grandfather had given the property to Lucia's family, Lucia became the real princess of the Balstone family. She felt uneasy.
But at this moment, because Lucia mocked Melody, she felt very happy!
Had she not been for her father's favor, that b*tch Melody would have been beaten to death.
"I don't know what kind of people she grew up with, other than pretending to be pitiful, she can't do anything else. I've told my father not to bring her with us. Now, she broke Grandpa's tea cup and embarrassed the whole family!" Leilani said in disgust.
"Enough!" Orlando's expression was awful. He roared at Leilani, "Keep you mouth shut"
Leilani rolled hers eyes in displeasure.
"Okay." Kylian stood up from the sofa and acted as a good person to ease the tense amosphere. "Although it's grandpa's favorite tea cup, he certainly doesn't want to make the family unhappy just because of a tea cup. I'll ask the servants to clean it up."
"That's right." Reagan quickly tried to smooth things over. "I saw Melody's hands are all red. It's better to send her to the hospital as soon as possible and let the doctor deal with it."
Although she was kind-hearted, Reagan never mentioned that half of her face was swollen by her daughter's slap.
Lucia couldn't help but smile.
"My mom still has some tricks up her sleeve!"
"Today we make trouble and upset Kylian's family. Let's go back with Melody." Orlando's lawful wife, Skylar Galop, said.
Maybe she didn't really want to help Melody to work in Balstone Group. Even if she tolerated Orlando taking his illegitimate daughter back, she wouldn't treat her sincerely. She was just pretended to be kind.
Skylar held Orlando's hand as she spoke.
Orlando pulled a long face. He was going to talk about Melody joining the company, but now that Melody had been ridiculed to this extent, he couldn't say anything at all.
He shook her hand violently and left angrily.
The entire family left as well.
When Melody left, she couldn't hide the anger in her eyes.
She didn't expect that Lucia would suddenly treat her like this, as if she had changed into another person. She pretended weak and innocent to hurt Lucia, but in return, she didn't expect that Lucia would slap her in the face and ruined her plan to enter into Balstone group.
This couldn't be!
She was definitely going to join Balstone Group!
Why would she be laughed at and humiliated when they were all from the Balstone family?
She wanted everyone in the Balstone family to look at her with new eyes, and to make them suffered!
