Too Good for You: The Ex-Wife You Lost novel Chapter 150

"I…"

Maxine couldn't bring herself to speak and kept retreating. With everyone staring at her, she wished she could disappear on the spot. However, there was no way she would ever apologize to Noelle—a shameless homewrecker.

"I didn't do anything wrong!" Maxine snapped, refusing to back down.

Andrew was so furious his head spun, and he kept apologizing over and over to Brad and Mitchell.

Andrew looked at Noelle. "Ms. Quinn, I'm sorry about this. I haven't handled my daughter well, so please, for my sake, don't let Maxine's behavior bother you."

He didn't know much about Noelle's background, but anyone who could command the support of Brad and Mitchell—the two biggest names in the auto industry—was clearly no ordinary person.

Noelle offered a faint smile, but before she could speak, a haughty female voice rang out from behind her. "Well, this party is lively. Did I come a little late?"

Everyone turned toward the voice. A middle-aged woman entered, draped in jewelry with a designer handbag on her arm. Her poise made it clear she came from wealth, and everything about her radiated sophistication.

Maxine immediately brightened and hurried over to the woman, putting on a pitiful look. "Mrs. Haberkorn, you're here."

Mrs. Haberkorn, also known as Laura Sherman, was Hunter's biological mother.

The moment she arrived, Laura sized up Noelle. However, Noelle didn't flinch. She met Laura's gaze head-on

A cold snort escaped Laura. "I heard the Clarkson family was hosting a party, so I came to see for myself. I didn't expect anyone to have the nerve to mistreat my future daughter-in-law."

Laura's gaze cut sharply toward Noelle. "Maxine is the daughter-in-law I've chosen. She's destined to marry my son Hunter. Anyone who disrespects her is disrespecting the Haberkorn family."

Though Laura had little regard for Maxine's lack of sophistication, Maxine was easy to control. Compared to the rebellious Noelle, Maxine was exactly the kind of daughter-in-law Laura wanted. Her obvious favoritism surprised everyone in the room.

Andrew was delighted. With the Haberkorns backing them, the Clarkson family would have no trouble landing strong partnerships in the future.

Just then, Noelle coldly interrupted, "If Maxine is your daughter-in-law, Mrs. Haberkorn, then you should make sure Ms. Clarkson learns some manners. Otherwise, a daughter-in-law like her would be a real embarrassment to bring around."

Laura's face darkened. "What did you just say?"

How dare this ungrateful woman openly disrespect her! She must have a death wish.

If it weren't for Nancy keeping her in check, Noelle wouldn't even have been allowed to stand here.

Noelle smiled faintly. "It seems, Mrs. Haberkorn, your ears aren't very sharp. With so many Haberkorns in Brindley, I think calling you Ms. Sherman might be more appropriate."

After all, with so many branches of the Haberkorn family, what authority did Laura really have?
