Chapter 23
Vincent didn’t know what Lesly had been through until he saw the Holden family in person.
He held her hand, shielded her behind him, and confronted their angry gaze head–on with an extremely cold and indifferent tone.
“Lesly has already married into the Leach family and has no further connection with the Holden family.”
Seeing the intimate appearance of the two people, the Holden family immediately concluded that he must be Vincent.
In front of the public, being lectured by a younger generation, Rashad and Taniya felt resentful, but due to Madan Leach’s presence, they had to put aside their elder’s demeanor and forcefully reason.
Even if she changed her last name, she still carries the blood of our Holden family! We taught her a lesson that was fair and reasonable.
Vincent lowered his eyes, about to retort, but Lesly grabbed him and gently shook her head.
Afterwards, she walked up to the people and stared fixedly at her relatives who had completely changed.
“Why did I have to change my surname? My name was given to me by my grandfather, and the marriage with the Leach family was also decided by him… What does it have to do with you? I am the daughter of Rashad and Taniya, the sister of Cedric. It was your beloved daughter Jessie who ran me over in a car forty–five days ago. All the ties between us were completely severed that day. If you think I am an ungrateful person, you should kneel in front of my grandfather’s grave first and see if he will forgive your actions all these years.”
Rashad and Taniya were so angry with these words that their faces turned red. They raised their fingers to scold her again, but were interrupted by a furious scolding from Madam Leach
“Have you had enough of this! This is Erifield, Lesly is the daughter–in–law of the Leach family, what right do you have to be so insolent here!” Joshua glanced at his mother and understood her intention. He immediately called the bodyguards and surrounded the group of people.
Seeing that she was about to be expelled, Jessie couldn’t swallow her anger and started speaking nonsense without thinking.
“What are you pretending? Is it impressive just because your last name is Leach? The Holden family is also a powerful presence in Ravenbourne. If you are so unkind, there is no need for any further communication in the future!”
Upon hearing this, even Justin, who had been silent the whole time, had a change in his expression.
The Holden family widened their eyes in disbelief, unable to believe that she would say such words.
Vincent glanced at her, his voice as cold as frost, but resounding.
“That’s exactly as you thought, Secretary. From today onwards, all projects between the Leach family and the Holden farmily were immediately terminated, and it was announced to the industry that the Leach Group and the Holden Group would never collaborate again!”
The secretary who received the order, along with the escorted group of bodyguards, left the villa together.
After all the commotion at the entrance of the villa, tranquility was restored.
Sering Lesly hang her head in shame, the Leach family members put away their anger and surrounded her, comforting her with kind words. “It’s okay, Lesly. With grandma here, no one will bully you
Grandma, Vincent, our whole family knows that the Holden family was wrong, not you. Don’t be sad. Today is a good day for a wedding, affect your mood. Be happy.
Seeing everyone worrying about themselves, Lesly forced a smile.
The tears in her eyes betrayed her.
Vincent knew she was feeling bad now, so he put his arm around her shoulder and took her home.
As soon as she got on the car, she threw herself into his arms and started crying, continuously apologizing,
“It was my fault, I didn’t handle personal matters well, and it caused trouble for both you and grandma…”
