She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor-Chapter 569: Debate

Everyone’s expressions changed in unison.

Jade Bell’s smile stiffened even more.

Hope Williams lightly raised an eyebrow, her cold face showing no excess of expression.

Ted Williams sat quietly in a corner, lifting his glass for a light sip, his lips revealing an undeniable smirk.

How interesting, he thought she could hold back a little longer; he didn’t expect her to erupt so quickly.

There was a good show to watch now.

Emily Parker and Sophie Zhou also smelled the brewing drama.

Although they had an unpleasant confrontation yesterday, the Williams Family had previously sent them an invitation, and due to the cooperative relationship between their families, they had no choice but to attend.

"Auntie, it seems there’s a good show to watch," said Sophie, gently swirling her champagne and smiling.

Emily Parker, having been at a disadvantage yesterday, now felt secretly thrilled to see any member of the Williams Family make a fool of themselves and naturally could not miss it.

Noah Carter grabbed Emily Parker’s arm and asked with a frown, "What are you planning to do now?"

Emily Parker shook off Noah Carter’s hand, "To watch the drama, of course."

"Second Miss Williams..."

"Call me Miss Williams!" Luna Williams sharply scolded the society lady trying to mediate, with a cold voice.

Mrs. Reed, the society lady attempting to mediate, tried to save face with an awkward smile, "...Miss Williams, after all, it doesn’t really matter who the Williams family fortune goes to, right? You and Mrs. Lewis are sisters, why bother to distinguish so clearly between you, right?"

Upon hearing this, everyone could tell it was meant to give Luna Williams a way out.

They joined in to smooth things over, "Yes, Miss Williams, today is Old Lady Williams’ birthday celebration, we’re all here to be happy, let’s not have any unpleasantness."

In such a situation, for Luna Williams to rebuke Old Lady Williams that way was in every respect inappropriate.

It was a complete loss of propriety.

If she were wise, she would naturally take the opportunity to step down.

But clearly, she had lost all sense of what propriety was.

Her anger, compounded by resentment, had already made her lose the ability to think clearly, especially with the mentions of her marriage arrangement with Leo Carter.

Both matters were Luna Williams’ greatest sore spots. Her emotions, already at the edge of explosion, could not be easily placated.

"Sisters? Mrs. Reed, would you be willing to share your family fortune with your own sister?" Luna Williams lashed out aggressively at Mrs. Reed, who offered her a way out, "If you can’t do it, then stop acting like a sanctimonious goodie-goodie here!"

"I..." Mrs. Reed looked aggrieved. She had good intentions in offering Luna a way out, but Luna still snapped at her. Was this second daughter like a dog that bites randomly?

"Miss Williams, it’s not good to speak like this, my mother was just trying to help you," said Luka Reed, Mrs. Reed’s son. As he spoke, his gaze kept lingering on Luna Williams, his eyes revealing a trace of lechery.

But Luna Williams didn’t realize and continued to be confrontational to whomever she faced:

"Did I say something wrong? Which sentence was incorrect? Isn’t the Williams Clan what my grandfather originally planned to give me? Isn’t Hope Williams the one who was driven out since she was young? What right does she have to come back and take away everything that’s mine?"

Hearing Luna Williams speak like this, the crowd exchanged glances before finally all eyes turned toward Hope Williams, who stood quietly in her place, her emotions inscrutable to all.

It was clear that the relationship between these sisters was extremely contentious.

Whispers and chatter began to spread in the surroundings.

Seeing Luna Williams so aggressive, Noah Carter, worrying that things might escalate and reflect badly on her, quickly stepped forward to intervene.

"Luna, stop this, if you have anything to say, we can talk after Old Lady Williams’ birthday celebration."

Luna Williams looked at Noah Carter, and seeing her biological father in front of her, her anger showed through gritted teeth, "What right do you have to lecture me?"

His absence in raising her was one thing, but because of her cursed blood relationship with him, she could never be with Leo Carter in this lifetime.

How could she not be furious?

Noah Carter saw the deeply personal resentment in Luna Williams’ eyes, his own surprise evident as he momentarily did not understand the source of her bitterness toward him.

Jade Bell stepped forward, looking at Luna Williams with a forced smile on her face, "Luna, how about we talk about these things another time? The banquet is about to begin, why don’t we first..."

"Grandma! Why wait for another time, aren’t we okay saying it now?"

"Exactly, why can’t Old Lady Williams speak openly? Since Second Miss Williams wants to listen, let’s clarify everything in front of everyone," Emily Parker said, intentionally inciting the situation.

Jade Bell’s features creased for a moment, with a flash of anger in her eyes, "This is a family matter, do you think it is appropriate to discuss it here? The Carters and our family are not getting along, so it would be better not to make things worse by inciting further."

If Jade Bell couldn’t see through this petty scheme, then she might as well have lived for nothing.

"Old Lady Williams, I just meant to..."

Noah Carter abruptly pulled Emily Parker back, "Shut your mouth."

"Why should I shut up? I didn’t say anything wrong. Why are you getting angry at me? It was Luna Williams herself who brought it up. What’s wrong with me saying something out of concern? Noah Carter, your bias is always showing... mmph mmph..."

Noah Carter, with his brows throbbing intensely, could no longer bear it and covered Emily Parker’s mouth directly.

"Continue making a scene, and you can get lost," Noah Carter hissed in a low voice.

Emily Parker glared at him with wide eyes.

"Just try me."

Noah Carter let go of her, and Emily Parker huffed angrily twice, adjusted her clothes, but didn’t dare to continue.

She was somewhat afraid of Noah Carter, but more than that, she knew that in such a formal occasion, anyone with a brain would know not to embarrass themselves.

It was important to know when to stop.

"Grandma, you tell me," Luna Williams pressed eagerly.

"What do you want Grandma to tell you?" A cold voice sounded as Hope Williams approached Luna Williams, her gaze indifferently fixed on her.

"Hope Williams, what’s there for you to be proud of? You’re just relying on Grandfather being gone, and Grandma favoring you! You’re the one who was driven away; I am the real Miss Williams, I am." Luna Williams was so angry that her eyes filled with tears, staring at Hope Williams.
