CHAPTER 581: CHAPTER 581: BLOW FOR ME, BLOW THEM TO DEATH

"Did I murder your grandfather? Or is it that your grandfather wanted to murder me, this old woman?" The Dowager Kane said angrily, "You with the surname Peng, doesn’t your entire family have any shame? The Kane family has given you so much, or was it all just fed to the dogs? Not only do you not show any gratitude, but you also come causing trouble with a mourning band when Leon isn’t home? Are you so sure Leon’s mother is already dead?"

"I call my aunt from time to time, but three days ago, I suddenly couldn’t get through to her. What is that if not an accident? You with the surname Kane, my aunt married into your Kane family, alive and well, and now either compensate us with her alive or with a huge amount of compensation for our emotional distress."

"My grandfather cried his eyes out these past three days after learning about this. My aunt had said she would take care of grandpa in his old age, and now you’re making my grandfather send off his black-haired grandchildren as a gray-haired elder. How can he take that?"

"Isn’t that Ivana? Since she’s here, maybe you should all discuss how to give us a satisfactory explanation."

Lucas Pierce, sharp-eyed, noticed Ivana walking over.

The Dowager Kane turned, saw Ivana, and gave Aunt Golding a slightly reproachful look.

Aunt Golding gave the Dowager Kane an apologetic expression.

"Ivana, why are you here? Go inside; I can handle this."

Grandma?

Ivana didn’t know why, but upon hearing "grandma," a warm feeling passed through her heart. It was probably because the villa now only had her and the Dowager Kane, and the elder showed so much care for her as a senior.

"Since I’m here, I have some thoughts I’d like to share."

She couldn’t just watch Mr. Peng and Lucas bully the Dowager Kane alone.

Mr. Peng and Lucas were such despicable grandfather and grandson; she’d seen it before. Even someone like Leon’s mother was manipulated by them, going in circles. The Dowager Kane might not be their match.

"Ivana, you should think carefully before you speak. My grandfather is old, and he was just slapped by your grandma. If you piss him off and something happens, you won’t have a good outcome."

Lucas glared at Ivana in warning.

Ivana scoffed dismissively, "I just want to ask, how much does your grandfather spend every month?"

Lucas frowned. What did Ivana mean? Did she just want to compensate a little for his grandfather’s expenses?

Damn it!

This woman was too sly, even more so than the Dowager Kane. At least the Dowager Kane wouldn’t ask about his grandfather’s monthly expenses like this. The Dowager Kane, after all, was a woman of high status and wouldn’t stoop to Ivana’s pettiness and cunning calculations.

"My grandfather’s monthly expenses can vary. Why are you asking this? Surely you don’t think compensating my grandfather’s expenses will settle this, do you? Haha... you’ve got another thing coming. My aunt gave birth for the Kane family; her life isn’t that cheap. On the contrary, it’s very valuable."

"Are you saying Leon’s mother is already dead?" Ivana raised an eyebrow. "Then fine, where’s the death certificate? Show it, and we can continue talking. Otherwise, there’s no discussion."

"You..." Lucas didn’t expect Ivana to pull such a move. His face turned red with anger, but he couldn’t find words to refute her.

The Dowager Kane looked at Ivana and nodded in satisfaction.

Ah, the young people have active minds! Ivana handled matters decisively and could grasp the key points, quite similar to how she was back in the day.

Mr. Peng, seeing Lucas being "bullied," got furious.

"What death certificate or no death certificate? Even if there was such a thing, I wouldn’t show it to you. Ivana, you’re the Kane family’s granddaughter-in-law; what do you count as? You don’t have any place to speak here, so get out of my way."

Lucas almost gave Mr. Peng a thumbs up when he heard this. Still, grandpa was great; the older the ginger, the spicier. Grandpa, spice Ivana, this little bitch, to death for me.

"Ivana is my granddaughter-in-law and also the current mistress of the Kane family. My grandson is not home; Ivana handles all matters of the Kane family. You with the surname Peng, if you’re going to be so unreasonable and disrespect my Kane family’s mistress, then get out! This is the Kane family’s territory; there’s no room for you to act wild here."

The Dowager Kane declared forcefully, supporting Ivana.

"You old thing with the surname Kane." Mr. Peng cursed angrily, "My daughter married into the Kane family, and no matter how you looked at her, you were dissatisfied. She finally endured to become the mother-in-law, and now, you are being so good to Ivana, the grandson’s wife? Are you deliberately not treating my daughter as a person?"

What made Mr. Peng most angry was that if the Dowager Kane had treated Leon’s mother a bit better back then, his Jackie could have at least gotten more billions of assets.

Mr. Peng shouldn’t have brought this up; bringing this up ignited the Dowager Kane’s fury.

"Your daughter even tried to harm the bloodline of the Kane family, and you still consider her a person?"

"I think you’re out of your mind. My daughter treated Ian so well; how could she harm the Kane family’s bloodline? Stop slandering her."

"If your daughter hadn’t harmed the Kane family’s bloodline, do you think Leon would have sent her to an island in F Country?"

Since it was brought up, let’s discuss it further!

Mr. Peng kept in contact with Leon’s mother; surely he knew these things, though Leon’s mother wouldn’t tell him about the malicious acts of harming Ivana’s unborn child.

"Your grandson Leon is simply bewitched and urged by this woman." Mr. Peng started targeting Ivana.

The eight musicians glanced at each other, suddenly began to play, then stopped again, as if providing a soundtrack for Mr. Peng.

Ivana’s temple throbbed, and she spoke coldly to Mr. Peng, "Don’t divert the topic. If you want compensation, produce a death certificate. Without it, the law won’t support your compensation demands; instead, I could charge you with extortion."

Upon hearing "extortion," Mr. Peng’s face changed.

Lucas got a bit scared, "We... we didn’t extort you. Don’t falsely accuse us."

Ivana turned on her phone’s recording function and slowly said, "Right, I forgot; you hadn’t mentioned a number yet. How much do you intend to extort from us? You can say it now, and I’ll keep the evidence to file a claim against you."

Lucas’s face turned beet-red. He clearly came intending to extort a hefty amount from the Dowager Kane, but now, because of the unexpected appearance of Ivana, he couldn’t bring himself to name an amount.

Mr. Peng was hopping mad, "Play, play till you deafen them."

Immediately, the eight musicians began playing again, the sound was deafening.

The Dowager Kane felt dizzy from the shock, her body swaying.

Ivana reached out to steady the Dowager Kane, her eyes cold as she looked at the loud musicians.

She said icily to the bodyguards, "Beat them for me, whoever makes noise, beat them hard. Break their legs and send them to the hospital for repair; the Kane family doesn’t lack medical expenses."

"Don’t be afraid of this nasty woman, she’s bluffing."

As soon as Lucas finished speaking, the eight musicians, upon seeing the fierce bodyguards approaching, were so scared they collectively dropped their instruments and ran faster than rabbits.
