Grace Ziegler’s fingernails had dug into her palms, and the knuckles were faintly turning white.

Even though she couldn’t contain the raging fury inside her, Grace Ziegler dared not make a scene in front of Assistant Howard, let alone make any more cunning arguments.

Grace Ziegler also feared that Assistant Howard would tell Chief Daniel Marshall and even slander her in front of him.

She couldn’t let everything she had achieved be destroyed because of her imprudence.

Even if it meant swallowing the greatest of humiliations, Grace Ziegler had to endure and still put on a pitiful facade.

Adam Howard’s tall and majestic figure just stood there, emitting an oppressive aura, his handsome features exuding an aggressive nobility, and his eagle-like sharp eyes stared at Grace Ziegler without blinking.

“To be honest, I have never seen such a shameless woman, you really have opened my eyes. A sparrow dreaming of becoming a phoenix, do you really think you are worthy?”

“…”

“The bodyguards assigned to protect you, as well as the servants and drivers, are all paid by Daniel Marshall. Just who do you think you are to Daniel Marshall, to be yelling at and even bullying them? Even the legitimate Mrs. Olivia Marshall is not as arrogant as you!”

“…”

“You should be grateful for the life you have now at all times, as you don’t have the capital to be arrogant. While others are working hard, all you do is manipulate, what gives you the right to look down on them? Do you think you are noble?”

“…”

“People should have self-awareness and abide by the moral bottom line. Didn’t your mother teach you these things?”

Grace Ziegler remained silent and started crying.

Adam Howard’s eyes were full of sarcasm, and he said sternly, “Pretending to be pitiful in front of me is useless! If you want to be respected, first, you need to learn to be human. Do not covet what is not yours. Forcing it will not make it yours. At such a young age, I never would have thought you could be so scheming and venomous like a viper. Does your mother know this is what you’re like?”

“…”

“Be sensible, and your fortune is ahead of you. Otherwise, I will personally take you to your mother. I want to ask her personally how she brought up her child. I would like to know if she taught her child to achieve their goals by any means necessary, whether she raised her child with the wild ambition of a wolf. I think your mother would be very eager to know all this.”

Agitated, Grace Ziegler covered her ears, tears streaming down her face, “Stop talking, please stop. I know I was wrong, I will apologize to her.”

Adam Howard’s fierce and sinister gaze bore into Grace Ziegler, showing no sign of softening, “Today, I’m only giving you a warning. If you know how to behave, I naturally also know how to be human. Otherwise, you can only roll back to the Binzhou mining district. I am not Daniel Marshall, I will definitely not show you mercy, and I do not pity you. I only believe in right and wrong.”

Grace Ziegler’s lips trembled involuntarily, but she couldn’t make a sound in her defense.

In Serene City, she absolutely could not let her mother know. Her mother would not allow her to stay in Serene City.

The bad things she had done, the very excessive things, along with her ambitions and inappropriate desires… her mother knew none of it.

Her mother taught her to be a kind and sincere person from a young age, to be grounded and work hard. If her mother knew everything she had done, she certainly would be disappointed. She would definitely rebuke her, definitely order her to stop, and not to have such fantasies. She would undoubtedly want her to return to the Binzhou mining district.

She didn’t want to go back, she didn’t want to live the life she had before, she too wanted to have what others couldn’t attain.

She wanted to rise above others.

Who doesn’t harbor some aspirations? She was just striving to achieve her goals. She just couldn’t be content with being a mining district girl forever.
