Upon seeing them approach, Joanna wasn’t as tactless as one might expect. Facing the Quirks, she put on. airs, appearing somewhat frail. She slowly rose to her feet, greeting everyone in turn. One could say that her behavior was impeccable. 

In the end, she said, “Lately, Janice has been causing everyone some trouble. My daughter’s peculiar personality has led to many misunderstandings. I promise to guide her properly in the future.” 

Upon hearing these words, the expressions of everyone in the Quirk family changed instantly. 

She was subtly suggesting to the guests that all the recent rumors were about Janice instead of Dylan and 

Cecilia. 

It was shocking for the Quirks to see such favoritism happening in front of them. She was relying on everyone else being too polite to rebut her on the spot and criticize Dylan. 

It seemed like she didn’t understand the temperament of the C 

Quirks. 

“Janice is such a good girl, she doesn’t need any guidance. I think you should focus on educating Dylan instead. He’s grown up but still so clueless, always making a fool of himself,” Selena retorted. “Oh, wait, I heard that Dylan was tutored by you. So, it’s all on Eric for not properly educating his child. It’s all his faul 

Joanna’s face changed instantly. She stared at Selena in disbelief because she probably didn’t expect that Selena would truly dare to confront her publicly. 

The spectators around them had their eyes wide open in anticipation, excitedly watching the showdown between the sisters–in–law. 

After all, it was widely believed that the Quirk family was united. Who would have thought that such a drama would unfold? 

“Selena, how our family educates children…” Joanna’s temper was not as pleasant as her appearance suggested. 

David, however, was the first to interrupt and take control of the situation. “I heard that Eric gave Dylan quite a beating. just saw him greeting guests. Has he recovered from his injuries? However, it’s only natural for him to be punished if he’s done something wrong.” 

With a smile, Felix said, “Joanna, you should sit down. You don’t want to overstrain yourself Didn’t you just visit the hospital not too long ago?” 

With these successive remarks, all the previous rumors were essentially confirmed, causing a myriad of emotions to flood Joanna’s face. 

She found it hard to discern whether these people truly disapproved of her, or if they were genuinely defending Janice. 

What was there to protect about that good–for–nothing and utterly unlikable girl? 

Joanna knew she wouldn’t gain any favor. For the sake of the bigger picture, she had no choice but to swallow her pride for the time being.

relief. They didn’t feel it was their place to confront the elders, and indeed, it seemed better left to the elders to handle such matters. 

At that moment. Alexander was treating Isabella like a delicate doll, gently helping her to sit down. 

From the moment Isabella first laid eyes on Joanna, she was completely taken aback. 

After the Quirk family had taken their seats, they couldn’t help but steal glances in Isabella’s direction Without Isabella’s usual sarcastic remarks, they found the situation quite peculiar. 

However, as they watched Isabella daydreaming, they began to feel a growing unease within them because there had been similar situations in the past. 

Every instance like this indicated that a shocking revelation was awaiting. 

Isabella was completely taken aback and astonished. 

There was an overwhelming amount of information, and Isabella had already felt overwhelmed just by looking at the first few messages. 

She didn’t even have the chance to read further, as she could no longer hold back her criticism. 

In her overwhelming excitement, she didn’t notice that she was gripping Alexander’s hand so tightly that it was almost turning blue. 

Vicious woman, such a vicious woman! I’ve seen my fair share of shameless vicious women, but Aunt Joanna’s level of shamelessness truly has no historical precedent! How can she be so at ease with herself after doing such things? 

Alexander’s family had already begun to tremble in fear. Despite their disdain for Joanna, she was the wife who had accompanied Eric for over twenty years. She was, in a sense, part of the Quirk family. If she was just stupid and had a lack of awareness, they could tolerate it. They truly didn’t want this woman to have any serious problems. 

However, it was rare to hear Isabella hurl such harsh insults. 

They had already mentally prepared themselves. 

Who would have known that the first thing Isabella said was a bombshell for them. 

What do you mean, an older pregnant woman needing Uncle Eric’s gentle care? You’re carrying someone else’s child‘ 

Alexander’s family was dumbfounded.
