?Chapter 283:
As Sharon arrived, the elderly woman immediately spoke up, “Finally, you’re here. Enough of your nonsense. Give me my money back!”
Her voice was so loud that it seemed she was no longer in any pain. Sharon, grinding her teeth in anger, responded, “Nonsense! Since when do I owe you anything?”
Marlon chimed in, “Katelyn told us everything. She gave you a billion dors to sever her ties with the Bailey family. A billion! How could you take so much from her? Shameless bastards!”
Previously, Katelyn had announced she had severed her ties with the Bailey family but hadn’t disclosed the amount she paid them, leaving everyone stunned by this revtion. A billion dors was an unimaginable sum. Even the hardest-working office employee wouldn’t earn that much in a lifetime.
Marlon continued, his anger escting, “Now that Katelyn has given all her money to you, how are we supposed to survive? I’m not leaving until you return the money!”
The butler muttered under his breath, “You shameless scoundrels!”
The old woman spat on the ground in disdain. “You’re the ones without shame. Who do you think you are, taking so much money from others?”
Sharon, already familiar with their audacity, scoffed. “Trying to be unreasonable now? You’re asking for trouble.”
With a confident grin, Marlon gestured to the gathered paparazzi. “We have plenty of witnesses here. Think about attacking us? We haven’t forgotten yourst act of violence.”
Marlon grew even bolder, turning directly to the cameras. “Look, everyone! This is the true nature of the so-called wealthy. She attacked my mother and me without any remorse and even took a fortune from us!”
He pointed to the scratches Sharon had inflicted on him earlier. “These rich families are all talk—nothing but heartless crooks!”<fnef45> Newest update provided by </fnef45>

Sharon was seething with rage, to the point of nearly passing out. However, with so many paparazzi present, she was powerless to act against the two troublemakers and had to restrain herself. Despite the Bailey family’s heavy investment in public rtions to manage their previous crisis, it didn’t mean thatizens had forgotten the past. If anything further happened to the Baileys, their previous scandals would resurface.
Now, Sharon had no choice but to endure everything. She clenched her teeth and shot an angry look at the butler. “What are the security guards doing? Didn’t they see these people causing trouble here? Get rid of them!” The butler answered promptly, “Right away, Mrs. Bailey.” Yet, before the security guards could act, the elderly woman was on the ground again.
“Go ahead, try me. I dare you. If I die here, none of you will get away with it.” Her words made the security guards hesitate once more.
While they were employed by the Bailey family, they didn’t want to face any legal consequences. For a few moments, no one moved. They simply watched as the elderly woman made a scene.
Watching the drama unfold on her phone, Katelyn couldn’t hold back herughter. Despite Sharon’s arrogance and assertiveness, she was powerless against the elderly woman.
The elderly woman said proudly, “I don’t want to cause trouble either. Just return the money and we’ll leave right away.” Sharon scoffed.
“I’ve spent so much time and effort raising Katelyn over the years. Why shouldn’t I ask for somepensation? Besides, she gave me the money willingly. Why should I give it back to you?”
The elderly woman rolled her eyes at Sharon. “How utterly shameless! Did you really raise her with a billion dors?”
“You!” Sharon was too angry to respond. Gritting her teeth, she shouted, “You shameless bastards!”
With a smirk, Marlon responded calmly, “Compared to you, we’re actually much better. At least we didn’t ask for so much money. And don’t forget to include our medical bills when you repay the moneyter.”
Sharon’s breathing became heavier with rage. She wished she could just get rid of those two troublemakers. Lise, arriving in a hurry, nearly copsed from anger.
