Chapter 598: The Disgraceful Old Hag

The entire livestream chat was stunned.

...

Two minutes earlier.

Selina was still slowly eating her cake when she suddenly heard a commotion not far away.

Half of the seats in this tea restaurant were outdoors. The weather was mild—neither too hot nor too cold—and with the pleasant surroundings, the restaurant had even set up an outdoor service counter. Whenever a guest walked up, a waiter would step forward to greet them.

By the time Ava and Matt’s wife, Jodi White, arrived, the restaurant was already full.

It had been Ava’s idea to come here—this was a famous influencer hotspot she had wanted to visit for a long time. She especially wanted to take pictures in the rose garden with the swing. Seeing so many people here instantly soured her mood.

And it only got worse.

The waiter told them the restaurant had no available tables and that they needed to wait in line.

What a joke. Who did they think they were? Lowering themselves to visit such a tiny little tea house—and they still had to queue up? Ridiculous!

Jodi’s temper flared immediately. Pointing at the waiter, she exploded, "Don’t you know I’m an elder? Haven’t you ever heard of respecting the elderly?"

The staff had seen plenty of difficult customers like this. Maintaining her professional smile, the waitress replied, "I’m truly sorry, but you’ll still need to take a number and wait."

Jodi nearly choked on her own rage.

In all her years, she had never been treated like this. This was just some small-time café, and some lowly waitress—what was wrong with letting her skip ahead? The fact that she hadn’t demanded they clear out the entire place for her was already her showing mercy!

Jodi had been the mistress of the Hill Family for decades. Even though Matt was no longer the head of the family, she still couldn’t shake her arrogant temper. "Fine, fine, just you wait!"

Then she turned to the other customers and roared, "Are you all blind? I’m an old woman, and you don’t even have the decency to give up your seats? Get up, all of you, up!"

Not a single guest moved. One of them even rolled his eyes and muttered under his breath, "Crazy."

Ava felt wronged too. Didn’t everyone know she was one of the most famous society ladies in the upper circles? At past banquets, other heiresses would rise to greet her whenever she appeared.

Yet here, no one paid her any mind. Not only did they not welcome her, but they wouldn’t even give her a seat. It was outrageous!

Just as she was stewing in her frustration, Ava’s gaze flickered and she seemed to spot someone.

Wait... was that Selina?!

Immediately, Ava tugged at Jodi’s sleeve and complained pitifully, "Grandma, I just saw Sister Selina! Don’t you think she’s behind this? With your status, how would these commoners dare not to give up their seats? It must have been Sister Selina’s orders!"

Jodi’s fury ignited even hotter.

In her mind, so what if Matt was adopted? Since the Hill Family’s great-grandfather had adopted him, then everything in the Hill Family should have gone to Matt. If only Charles had been eliminated sooner, things would have been fine. But instead, Charles had gone on to have two children. It was the great-grandfather’s weakness that forced Matt’s hand against Charles—how could anyone blame Matt for that?

As for Jeff and Aaron’s return, in Jodi’s eyes they were nothing but thieves, bandits who had stolen everything from her.

And Selina—Jeff’s niece, Victoria’s daughter—was the enemy too. She was one of the bandits.

Jodi’s rage boiled over. Without a second thought, she stormed forward, completely ignoring the streamers nearby with their live equipment. Marching right up to Selina’s table, she shouted, "Get up! I want this seat!"

Everyone: "...?"
