Chapter 4
Laila: “Mia, oh no, I mean Mrs. Lewis, you’re too kind. This Annie has come to bully you in your own h still giving her a chance. You really have a big picture view.”
home, and you’re
Others also started to chime in: “Mrs. Lewis is so magnanimous. Annie, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and get down on all fours and bark like a dog“]
“As long as you bark like a dog and crawl out, Mrs. Lewis won’t hold it against you. Why aren’t you doing it?”
Lillian even tried to hint at me with her eyes. Seeing no reaction from me, she anxiously spoke up: “Annie, at this point. you should quickly do as told. Mrs. Lewis is being generous. You should feel lucky she’s letting you off.“[]
“Mrs. Lewis is such an important figure. With just a word, she could have you blacklisted in the entire industry. You’ll regret it when it’s too late.”
Mia was even more arrogant: Tve given you a chance, but you’re not taking it. Time’s up. Now you can’t leave even if you
want to.”
The others looked at me as if I was a clown.]
I smiled faintly: “T’d like to know what you think you can do to me?“]
From childhood to now, this was the first time I had experienced such a dramatic situation. I was more curious about what she was relying on to act so arrogantly in my house
They kept calling her Mrs. Lewis, and she seemed to enjoy it, really thinking she was the wife of the Lewis Group’s chairman.[]
I don’t know how my mom would deal with her if she knew about this. After all, this is a family scandal. Before having solid evidence, I think it’s better not to alarm my mom.

Even if my dad really had a relationship with her, at most she would just be a mistress kept on the side.
Moreover, I trust my dad’s taste. Even if he were to find a mistress, he wouldn’t go for someone like her. So I feel there must be some other explanation
Mia laughed coldly: “How to deal with you? I don’t know if you’re really stupid or just pretending to be stupid in front of everyone. Offending me? Just wait and see how my husband deals with you.”
I pretended to be surprised and asked: “Who is your husband? Are you sure he has the ability to deal with me?”
She acted as if she had heard the biggest joke: “You’re pretending not to know my husband? Then let me tell you formally one more time. Listen carefully my husband is the chairman of the Lewis Group, and I am the chairman’s wife. Do you understand now?”
I was stunned for a while. To clarify if she was talking about my dad, I asked: “You mean Edwin Lewis?”
She immediately found a sense of superiority. “It seems you’re not completely useless. You even know Mr. Lewis’s full name. But as an employee of the Lewis Group, addressing the chairman by his full name shows a real lack of mannerst
I felt very awkward: “Do you think Mr. Lewis would acknowledge you as his wife?“]
My words seemed to touch a nerve: “What do you mean by that? Are you doubting that I’m telling the truth? Then I’ll let you…”
I waved my hand: “No need to let me do anything. If Mr. Lewis really acknowledges you as his wife, I’ll bark like a dog and crawl out as you said. Are you satisfled now? But Mr. Lewis has to be here in person to acknowledge you.”
I really didn’t want to play along anymore. As soon as dad arrives on the scene, it’ll be clear who the fool is.]
“As far as I know, Mr. Lewis’s wife has never appeared in the public eye, but I’ve heard about her character. She’s definitely not someone as foolish as you.”
I really wanted to know who gave her the courage to dare to claim she was replacing my mom’s position.[]
Mia was very unsatisfied: “It seems you won’t belleve until you see it with your own eyes. Fine, I’ll humor you.
I nodded.[]
Mia angrily operated her phone for a while, then put it on speakerphone. The other end quickly answered.]
“Honey, come home quickly! There’s a bad woman in the house, bullying me and our child. Our daughter was even hit by her. You have to stand up for us!”
She sounded as if she had suffered a great injustice, complaining into the phone, and even started crying.
A male voice came from the phone: “Darling, don’t cry. I’m coming right now. I want to see who’s so hold as to cause trouble in our house.”
Mia hung up the phone and immediately changed her attitude, her tone full of threat: “When my husband arrives, even if you bark like a dog and crawl out, it might be too late. Mr. Lewis isn’t as easy to talk to as I am. Just walt for Mr. Lewis’s anger.”
