Chapter 448: Furious Rebuke

Chapter 448: Furious Rebuke

Justin was full of confidence, as he had gotten used to being haughty.

Although he was the son-in-law of the Turners, he had a higher status. When the Carters were still a second-tier family in Orange County, Justin disliked William because they all knew that William wasn’t the biological son of Dominic Carter and didn’t have a high status in the Carter family. He couldn’t get any money from the Carters, and his status was just for show.

But Justin was different. The Herons were a second-tier family in LA and were much richer than the Carters. Furthermore, he was the biological son of Robert Heron and would be taking over the family’s empire in the future. So he completely looked down on William, who couldn’t even get a proper job and could only live off of the annual dividends from the Carters, which were like handouts.

Besides, the Carters had now been reduced to an insignificant third-tier family, and William’s family had even been kicked out by the Carters. It was simply a tremendous disgrace.

But William and Karen’s daughters had openly humiliated his wife and accused her of refusing to repay her loans. It was simply a joke!

So Justin called Karen’s name and even unceremoniously demanded that she make Cheyenne and Charlotte apologize.

Justin’s shouting immediately attracted the attention of all the guests in the ballroom, and they cast their gazes at him.

Sitting near them, Karen shuddered and immediately stood up in panic.

The Herons were much more powerful than their family now, and Karen didn’t dare to disobey.

She only knew that Justin had found out about what Cheyenne had done and was infuriated!

Karen was terrified and hurriedly urged Cheyenne, “Your Aunt Gretchen and Uncle Justin are angry with you! Hurry up and apologize to them!”

Anxiety and resentment were written all over her face, and she wanted to make Cheyenne apologize.

The people around them stared at Karen in contempt like they were watching a joke.

They had all seen what had happened earlier, so they were well aware that Cheyenne and Charlotte had retaliated only because Gretchen had repeatedly provoked them again and again. Besides, it was a matter of fact that Gretchen owed them money and refused to repay her debts. Those who had seen Gretchen’s reaction just now were aware of it.

But now that Gretchen’s husband had arrived, he lost his temper and yelled at Karen while insisting that she make her daughters come over and apologize to them. Yet Karen pushed her daughters to apologize without explaining anything at all. This wasn’t something that a mother should do at all.

Cheyenne stood up and said calmly, “What did I do wrong? Why should I apologize to you?”

Justin didn’t expect Cheyenne to have the guts to contradict him, and his face turned extremely gloomy. “My wife is your elder no matter what. Not only do you not have any respect for her, but you even humiliated her in front of all the guests. And now, you dare not admit your mistake? Is this how Karen raised you?”

Cheyenne retorted coldly, “How did I humiliate her? She borrowed tens of thousands of dollars from our family and never mentioned a single thing about paying us back. I just asked her to return the money. You call that humiliating her?”

Justin sneered and roared, “Lies! The Herons are a big family in LA, and the Heron Corp. alone is worth hundreds of millions! How can we possibly owe your family tens of thousands?”

Refusing to show any weakness, Cheyenne said calmly, “Yeah, that baffles me too. Your family is so rich. Why did you still take money from us and refuse to return it?

“I thought about it, and there are only two reasons. If Aunt Gretchen doesn’t have a problematic personality and is deliberately not intending to return the money, the only possibility is that the Heron Corp. is actually facing cash flow problems, and you can’t even afford to return eighty thousand. Uncle Justin, which do you think is the reason?”

Cheyenne’s words were extremely sharp, and they immediately made Justin’s face turn even more gloomy while everyone else began discussing it.

Indeed, there were only two possibilities for not repaying the money she owed. One was that she didn’t have enough money, and the other was that she had a problematic personality and refused to repay the loans.

Could Cheyenne be right, and that the prestigious Heron Corp. only seemed to be doing well on the surface but actually couldn’t even afford to take out $80,000?

Or was it that the wife of Justin Heron had such poor character that she refused to even return the money that she borrowed from her sister and niece?

Regardless of the reason, it was an immense embarrassment for the Herons.

Justin was extremely furious because he realized this too.

“Hmph, the Heron Corp. is doing very well. You’re just a girl. What do you know? If you continue spouting nonsense and smearing the Herons, I’ll have the company’s legal team sue you for slander and disinformation regardless of the fact that we’re relatives!”

After giving the stern warning, he glanced at Gretchen, who just entered.

But his heart dropped when he saw Gretchen’s diffident and shifty gaze. Did this damn fool really refuse to return the money she borrowed?

But now that they were in front of so many people, he couldn’t ask Gretchen about it and could only accuse Cheyenne of slandering them in hopes that he could threaten her into keeping quiet.

Unfortunately, Cheyenne was no longer a pushover, and she wouldn’t be shocked by Justin’s words.

She exclaimed resolutely, “Go ahead and sue me if you want! I would love for you to sue me, but I’m afraid the result won’t be what you want!”

“You!” Justin was so furious that he choked.

Cheyenne had always been cowardly and attached great importance to kinship. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have slogged her guts out in the Carter Corporation for years even after the Carters had snatched the Brilliance Corporation away from her.

Is she possessed? How dare she talk to me in such a harsh tone?!

Lucas was standing beside Cheyenne and staring coldly at Justin, who was so furious that his lips almost twisted.

But before Justin could lose his temper at Cheyenne again, the sounds of a commotion and cars spread over from outside the hotel.

As the host, Alex couldn’t worry about watching Justin teach Cheyenne a lesson and hurriedly rushed out to greet the guests.

It didn’t take long for him to enter with a large group of guests.

“Justin, these are all the guests you’ve invited. Thank you so much!” Alex said to Justin smilingly as soon as he entered.

The guests that he had invited were all distinguished guests from the various prestigious families of LA. Although there were no people from top families, they were still rare and honored guests to the Turners, who used to live in the countryside.

Alex felt extremely proud and dignified that so many people had come to congratulate his son on his wedding all at once. My brother-in-law is indeed impressive!
