Gloria had no idea about Jacob’s announcement. She froze for a second, “What announcement? I don’t know what you’re talking about. Stop making things up.”
“I am your grandmother, and if you dare to disrespect me or mistreat me, I can take you to court.”
“I want you to support me, so you have to. While I’m here, you have to give me whatever I want. I’m your grandmother, and you have a duty to take good care of me, you hear me?”
Jasmine was dumbfounded after hearing Gloria’s fluent speech, and she turned to look at Aveline.
Aveline knew Gloria couldn’t have come up with those words. Jacob or Courtney must have taught her. in case Aveline didn’t let the old woman stay at Mount Ardwood.
Aveline said coolly, “It’s your two sons‘ and their wives‘ responsibility to take care of you. It only becomes my turn when they’re dead.”
“So, are both of your sons dead?”
Gloria flew into a rage, pointing at Aveline, “You wretched girl, are you cursing your own father and uncle?”
Jasmine started to speak, but Aveline shook her head, not wanting to drag her into her family drama. Then Aveline said:
“I’m just stating a fact. Besides, do you really think I have the power to curse people to death?”
Gloria spat a few times. “Power? You’ve got nothing.”
Just as Julian opened the door to the private dining room, he saw Gloria acting like that.
When Gloria saw him come in, she said, “Another person for dinner. I want to order.”
Aveline ignored her and poured tea for Julian
Julian whispered to her, “What’s going on with your grandmother?”
Aveline just shook her head, a silent signal that she couldn’t talk in front of her grandmother.
Seeing Aveline ignore her, Gloria shot up from her seat and headed for the door of the private dining room.

Jasmine and Julian were alarmed. One stood up to stop her and the other opened his mouth to protest, but Aveline shook her head at them and said coldly:
“Grandma, don’t cause trouble here. This is Xavier’s hotel. He can have security throw you out.”
Gloria froze in front of the door, her hand hovering over the handle, not daring to it.
open
She wasn’t sure if this kind of luxury hotel would really throw her out, so she didn’t dare to make
a rash move.
Besides, when she faked being sick at the hospital, she saw that Xavier clearly sided with Aveline. It seemed he didn’t like Josephine anymore.
If Aveline asked Xavier to kick her out, Xavier might actually agree.
Gloria turned back, glaring at Aveline, “Is this how you treat your own grandmother?”
Aveline replied coldly, “And how have you, my own grandmother, treated me?”
“You told me to give my husband to Josephine.”
Gloria was speechless.
Jasmine and Julian listened in disbelief, their faces filled with shock.
Gloria’s lips trembled, but she didn’t say anything and went back to her seat.
But after a moment, seemingly unwilling to accept Aveline’s accusation, she said, “Well, that’s because you couldn’t hold on to your husband’s heart. He likes Josie. How is that my fault?”
Jasmine and Julian couldn’t believe this old woman could say something so shameless and vicious. Josephine was her granddaughter, but so was Aveline.
Julian couldn’t say anything to an old woman, so his face just darkened.
Jasmine couldn’t hold back her anger. She snapped, “Hey, old woman, do you even hear yourself?”
The old woman had a bad character, but she wasn’t good at arguing. She pointed at Jasmine, “You, you, you… how can you talk to me like that? I’m an old woman, and Aveline’s grandmother. Have you no respect?”
