NovelEnglishChapter 27 Chapter 27: When Marissa walked into the banquet hall, the atmosphere was already extremely tense. Balthasar sat at the table, his eyes blazing with anger. Everyone else wore cold expressions. Nia, who had been unconscious, had woken up and was crying, covering her red, swollen cheek. Zoe was also in tears, holding her throat, while Stacy kept her head lowered in fear. Clearly, Sansa had already complained about Tiffany to Balthasar As soon as Marissa appeared, Balthasar slammed the table angrily. "You rascal, get down on your knees!" Although Balthasar had handed over the family leadership to Rex, he still held complete authority in the Nash family. No one dared to defy him. When he was angry, everyone remained silent Ayla smirked, waiting for Marissa to be punished. Sansa pretended to be guilty. "I have treated Tiffany like my own daughter since she was a child. If she made any other mistake today, I would cover for her. But she destroyed your Longevity Soup. I cannot overlook such a significant matter." Ayla pretended to comfort Sansa, saying, "Mom, don't blyourself. Everyone knows how important the soup is. The whole family has guarded this pot of soup like a treasure for generations. But Tiffany didn't care and did such an ominous thing." Hearing the word "ominous," Balthasar grew even angrier. As he grew older, he becmore fearful of death and placed great value on his health. To live a longer life, he tended to be paranoid. Many elderly people, even in ordinary families, were obsessed with health products. Balthasar was obsessed with Longevity Soup, believing it would extend his life. Every year on his birthday, he had a bowl of it Now, he was in good health and spirits, and he credited it to the soup. But this year, the soup had been destroyed on his birthday. To him, it was ominous, as if his long life had been cut short. He was both sad and furious Marissa still didn't kneel. Balthasar slammed the table again. "You rascal, why don't you get down on your knees? Do you think you can ignore your grandfather after marrying into the Daniels family and getting Mrs. Arabella Daniels' support?" Although Tiffany was now Connor's wife, no one took it seriously because they knew that Connor hated her and had been forced to marry her by Arabella. The Nash family was never happy about the marriage. They worried that if Arabella passed away, Connor would vent his anger on them because of Tiffany Marissa understood the situation completely. Standing there, neither humble nor pushy, she asked, "Grandpa, what mistake did I make?" "How dare you pretend to be ignorant?" Balthasar pointed at Marissa and shouted. “You ran away on your wedding day. No one knew where you were. Mrs. Arabella Daniels got sick because she was too anxious. Mr. Connor Daniels vented his anger on the Nash family. You almost ruined the whole family. I haven't blamed you for that yet. How dare you ruin my soup as soon as you cback? You've been nothing but trouble!" "Grandpa, it was wrong ofto leave unannounced on my wedding day. I've addressed the issue over the past few days. Connor won't hold a grudge against the Nash family anymore. There's no need to worry," Marissa replied calmly. Then she changed the subject and firmly said, "As for the Longevity Soup, I didn't ruin it. Don't blme for that!" Before Balthasar could respond, Ayla cut in, saying, "Tiffany, since you ruined Grandpa's soup, you have to kneel and apologize to him. How can you deny it?"
Nia quickly echoed, “Mr. Nash, as soon as Miss Tiffany Nash walked in, she said that since she was now Mr. Connor Daniels' wife, she should be treated like a queen in the Nashm family, and everyone, including you, must show her respect. She noticed us handling the soup. Without hesitation, she grabbed it and splashed it on my face, saying that it was a warning to the Nash family. We tried to explain the significance of the soup to her. She ignored us, becangry, attacked me, and even poisoned Zoe and Stacy. It's one thing to disrespect us, but to treat you this way, sir..."
