Chapter 41
41 Coming To the Door
Caroline didn’t know about this yet. She was in her apartment, preparing a delicious lunch with Danika.
When she heard the doorbell ring, she took out her phone and glanced at it. “It seems that today’s lunch will be very bad.”
Danika also saw the person outside through the camera.
She panicked. “How did Mr. Balor find this place? And he even brought the annoying Kelly along.”
Caroline laughed sarcastically. “What else? It’s for the money.”
After a night, they finally reacted. Caroline had lost her shares, but she still had the money from selling her shares. With such a huge sum of money, how could they be willing to let Caroline hold it in her hands?
“Why don’t you just pretend that we’re not at home and ignore them?” Danika looked down on Balor, but she was afraid that he would get angry and hit Caroline.
Caroline turned on the tap and washed her hands carefully. “You can’t hide for a second time. Trouble has to be solved. Let them in.”
After ringing the doorbell a few times, the door did not open. Kelly looked at Balor worriedly. “Do you think Sister will be hiding from us?”
After all, Caroline dared to sell the company’s shares on her own accord. She clearly didn’t care about them. Would she go into hiding after receiving such a large sum of money?
In this regard, Balor was very confident. “I’ve just sent someone to ask around. Other than going out for a run in the morning, she has been staying in the house.”
Fortunately, they didn’t have to wait for long. Danika listened to Caroline’s suggestion and opened the door to let them in.
Balor glared at Danika, who looked slightly familiar, and scolded her, “Ungrateful wretch. After eating their family’s food, you actually helped Caroline, this b*tch, deal with us.”
Upon hearing his curses, Danika could not help but sneer back. “Are you scolding yourself, Mr. Balor?”
He didn’t expect Danika to refute him. If it weren’t for the fact that this wasn’t the Lambert family’s villa, he would have raised his ruler and hit her. “You’re just a servant, and you dare to disobey the master? Who gave you the confidence?”
Danika faced his anger and tried her best to straighten her back. “Mr. Balor, it was the old master, Mr. Lambert, who gave me the confidence. Ever since he saved me from danger more than twenty years ago and gave me the opportunity to be reborn, I swore to serve the Lambert family for the rest of my life, to be loyal to the descendant Mr. Lambert had chosen.”
Danika spoke of her gratitude, indirectly pointing out Balor’s cruel heart and unscrupulous ambitions. Balor clearly understood the other meaning in her words, so his expression immediately turned ugly.
This was the most awkward part about Balor. He was extremely reluctant to be mentioned by others about him marrying into the family. It was as if everything he had now was a gift from the Lambert family.
But on the other hand, in order to fit into his noble status, he was extremely unwilling to give up the title of Lambert.
Faced with Danika’s accusation, Balor gritted his teeth and said, “You’re indeed Caroline’s dog. Just like her, you’ve become sharp-tongued.”
Danika retorted, “It’s my honor. Thank you for your praise, Mr. Balor.”
Baro was stunned. He decided not to lower himself and argue with this hateful maid. “Where’s Caroline? Her father and guests are here. Why didn’t she come out to welcome them? Where have her manners gone?”
“I’ll have to ask you, Balor.” Caroline was wearing a khaki-colored checkered slim-waisted dress. She walked down from the second floor in a natural and poised manner. She looked even more elegant than usual. “As a father, you actually neglected your child’s education. You should be the first one to take responsibility.”
“From the looks of it, I haven’t been strict enough with you in the past few years, which is why you’ve become so arrogant and unruly. You’ve ignored your grandfather’s expectations of you and completely disregarded the interests of the Lambert family. For your own selfish reasons, you’ve even publicly sold off the family business that Lambert had saved up for several generations, completely disregarding the interests of the company’s shareholders.”
The moment Balor came up, he threw a bunch of crimes at Caroline. He wanted to gain the upper hand and take the initiative in this negotiation, suppressing Caroline.
