Chapter 671
“No,” Judie replied, putting the card away. “I’m just reclaiming my card. Don’t act like you’ve given me something. Also, our small house isn’t adequate for us to live in. You need to find a solution for that.”
While Judie was speaking, Denise tugged at her sleeve, but Judie brushed Denise’s hand away. After Ruby revealed the real relationship between Denise and Eileen that day, Denise had stopped causing problems. She had clearly been feeling guilty.
Now, Eileen could see that Judie was implying that Eileen should buy a house for them.
“You should ask Denise about this matter,” Ruby said. “Ask if she’s shameless enough to demand Eileen buy a house for her.”
Denise turned her gaze away, unable to respond.
Suddenly, Judie reached out and touched her arm, urging, “Say something!”
“Well…” Denise hesitated, struggling to find the right words.
Judie, visibly enraged, said, “Eileen, as Denise’s daughter, you have plenty of money, yet you only give her two thousand a month in alimony. Don’t you think that’s unreasonable?”
She then cast a look at Bryan.
Bryan stood with a commanding presence.
Judie added, “You supported your stepmother before, and now you support a man. Why can’t you ensure a better life for your real mother?”
Immediately after Judie’s remarks, Bryan narrowed his eyes and glared at her coldly.
Judie took a deep breath and said, “Why are you staring at me? Did I say something wrong? You’ve been using Eileen’s money since marrying her. Now, with your health issues, don’t you depend on Eileen to support you?” Judie had only skimmed the news headlines and was unaware that Bryan had given EB Group, Apex Group, and Warren Group to Eileen.

“I choose to support my partner and my stepmother. Even if I decide to help someone homeless in the future, it’s none of your business. If you’re bold enough, go ahead and sue me. Otherwise, keep your false accusations to yourself, or I’ll take legal action against you for trespassing and blackmailing,” Eileen raised an eyebrow, pointed toward the door, and warned, “If you don’t leave right now, I’ll call security.”
Judie tried to stay, but Denise forcibly pulled her away.
Had Judie not been pregnant, Denise would have dragged her away faster.
Once they had walked a considerable distance away from the villa, Denise finally released her grip on Judie.
“What are you doing?” Judie, feeling angry, shoved Denise. “Why didn’t you speak up just now? Ruby has already been swayed, and Eileen will be too embarrassed in front of Bryan to refuse you.”
Denise replied, “Why would Eileen be embarrassed in front of Bryan? Bryan indulges her. Even if she ignores her own mother, Bryan will still support her.”
