Chapter 626
“Mom, could you give it a rest for a sec? Don’t rile dad up any further!” Nick said, rubbing his throbbing temples.
In this family, Carolina might run the show, but Jonah was supposed to be the head honcho. And in this house, he was just a nominal ‘leader‘, with zero real decision–making
power.
“Who should be pissed off, him or me? He’s muddling right from wrong, ungrateful, irresponsible, how can he be the head of the family?” Carolina said.
Jonah was seething, his eyes bloodshot, “If the Summers family falls apart, it’s all on you! You’re autocratic, domineering, full of yourself, can’t tell right from wrong. You think your decisions are all that, always believing you can pull the wool over everyone’s eyes, craving attention. Ridiculous!”
“Jonah! You’re just being unreasonable!” Carolina snapped, her temper flaring up again.
“Enough!” A cold voice suddenly cut through Carolina’s outburst.
Chloe, frowning deeply, walked back into the living room, making a beeline for Jonah.
“It seems this family can’t accommodate you if your decisions don’t align with theirs.” Saying this, she bent down and forcefully helped Jonah up from the sofa. Jonah’s breathing was heavy, and Chloe could feel his body trembling. She gritted her teeth, her heart filled with a mix of sympathy and anger.
“Come with me!” Chloe gripped Jonah’s arm tightly, her voice cold, and dragged him a couple of steps.
Upon seeing this, Keira immediately blocked Chloe’s path.
“Let him go!” Carolina shot Chloe a venomous look.
“Chloe! Let go! This is the Summers family, where do you think you’re taking your grandfather?” Viviana said anxiously.
Keira chimed in, “Chloe, what on earth are you doing? Grandpa and grandma are just having a spat. If you take grandpa away now, aren’t you afraid of becoming the laughingstock?”
“Slap!” A sharp sound echoed, Keira let out a shriek and toppled onto the sofa!
Everyone was stunned into silence, staring at her.
Chloe withdrew her slightly numb hand, looking down at Keira, “So this is what you’re most worried about? A spat? What are they arguing about? Are you blind? Grandpa has always been in poor health, now he’s been worked up into this state by Carolina. Have
even one word to defend him? Keira, I don’t know what kind of dirty deal
you’ve struck with Carolina, to have her so wholeheartedly on your side. But if you want to play this game, then play it well! Just because grandpa’s words just now sided with me. You’re holding a grudge and watching him get this worked up, yet you do nothing! Your dark mentality might fool some people, but do you think you can fool me?”
Carolina furrowed her brows, casting a doubtful glance at Keira after hearing this. Nick also glanced at Keira, his brows furrowing deeply.
Keira’s gaze became complicated, her mind in a whirl.
“Chloe!” Viviana finally let out a shriek, “You don’t even bother to hide it anymore?! You dare to treat Keira like this in front of us! Mom! You see it now, right? She’s going too far, way too far!”
