Chapter 102: How Dare You?
His words made everyone speechless.
How dare William, this useless man, talk to Wade like that?
Did this loser out of mind?
This is the Turner family!
‘William, have you ever considered the consequences?’ Wade thought.
Wade immediately darkened his face and frowned with an extremely arrogant attitude. He said angrily, "William, how dare you insult me? Who gives you, a worthless son-in-law of the Smith Family, the right to talk to me like that? How dare you come to our Turner family? Today, I won't let you step in this door! Loser, how dare you show off in front of me!"
Wade was furious, never expecting that loser William would insult him to his face.
It was totally an insult to himself and the Turner family!
Daniel immediately chimed in, arrogantly pointing at William and cursing, "Apologize to Wade right now, or you won't be allowed to enter the Turner family today. Get it? Loser!"
At the gate, many members of the Turner family were watching. At the sight of this scene, they all pointed at William and Mary, gossiping.
The strange looks made Mary feel extremely uncomfortable.
Margaret was even more furious. She had already said not to bring William.
Now, he dared to talk back to Wade. Wasn't this just looking for trouble?
"Look, that's Margaret's son-in-law, William, the loser. I heard he's a delivery guy who barely makes any money and owes a lot of debt."
Dorothy mingled in the crowd, chattering away with disdain and contempt in her eyes.
What she wanted now was to fan the flames and let everyone see what a terrible son-in-law Margaret had!
"I've heard about this William before. He's a complete loser. Didn't they say he was going to divorce Mary? Why is he here today?"
"It's just a bit of bad luck for such a trash to come to celebrate Roy's birthday. He should be kicked out!"
"Exactly, Roy never liked William. His presence just ruins everyone's mood."
A group of people kept mocking and ridiculing, their expressions full of contempt and disdain.
Margaret couldn't stand these harsh words. She immediately yanked William and scolded, "William, what are you doing? How could I bring such an embarrassing person like you here? Get out now and never step into the Turner family again!"
Margaret was like a powder keg, ready to explode at any moment.
She had already guessed that the Turner family wouldn't miss the chance to criticize her. Now they were using William as an excuse. Margaret wouldn't even be in the mood to sit at the table.
Tyler chose to remain silent, but his face was also very unpleasant.
After all, this was the Turner family, a huge and powerful family. Tyler didn't dare to speak rudely.
Moreover, before Tyler retired, he had been under the protection of the Turner family.
So, Tyler cunningly chose to stay silent.
Mary pulled Margaret's hand away, raising her eyebrows in displeasure. "Mom, this is Wade's fault. Why does he mock William? After all, William is my husband and you should defend him."
Mary was also unhappy. They had just gotten out of the car, and Wade started criticizing William.
Mary pondered, ‘Does Wade not respect me as his cousin? Does Wade not understand basic manners? Why does Margaret blame William?’
"Mary, this is not your place to speak. Stay out of it!" Margaret was furious and slapped Mary across the face.
Margaret had had enough. Recently, Mary had been constantly opposing her and insisted on bringing William this time. Now, it turned into a joke.
Margaret had lost all face!
Seeing Mary get slapped, William flared up his anger and pulled Mary behind him, glaring at Margaret and said sternly, "Margaret! Don't think too highly of yourself! In my eyes, you're far less important than Mary! Don't make things unpleasant for everyone!"
William was very angry, clenching his fists tightly.
Mary quickly grabbed William, whispering, "William, no."
Only then did William release his grip, sighing.
But William remained icy, with flames flickering in his eyes.
If anyone dared to hit Mary or humiliate her again, William wouldn't mind turning the Turner family upside down!
Margaret was also flustered, especially when she saw anger in William's eyes. She felt a bit guilty.
She thought, ‘William has really changed recently, arguing with me several times.’
Wade was pleased with the situation. He hadn't even done much, and the Smith family was already causing a scene themselves.
It seemed Margaret didn't like William. Wade could use this as his advantage.
Margaret glared at William, then pulled Tyler and entered the courtyard.
Anna had already gone in, staying close to Dorothy, her eyebrows twitching and a cold smile appearing on her face as she watched the drama unfold.
‘Mary, you are truly pitiful, marrying such a loser," she muttered to herself before turning to go inside.
But just as Mary was about to lead William through the door, Wade blocked their way again.
"Mary, William is not worthy of entering the Turner family!" Wade flared his nostrils, his expression arrogant and extremely conceited.
In his eyes, William was just garbage, and the Turner family did not welcome him.
Daniel also stood at the door, blocking the entrance.
Mary furrowed her brow, her face quickly turning cold. She said, "Wade, Daniel, I am your cousin. Move aside!"
Mary was really angry.
She hadn't expected Wade and Daniel to be like this, completely disregarding her.
However, Wade and Daniel remained unmoved, their eyes provocatively fixed on William. Wade said, "William, if you don't want Mary to be kicked out of the Turner family as well, you should leave on your own. No one here wants to welcome you."
William curled his lips into a cold smile. Just as he was about to speak, Emily, who had been watching, stepped forward and pushed Wade and Daniel aside. She coldly said, "What are you doing? Aren't you afraid Roy will scold you? The banquet is about to start. Do you want the whole of Yangville to know that the Turner family treats Mary and his husband like this?"
Wade and Daniel frowned, glancing at Emily. They glared at William with resentment and threateningly said, "William, let's see what will happen next. There will be a good show later. I hope you won't run away halfway."
With that, they turned and went inside.
Mary quickly thanked Emily, "Emily, thank you."
Emily gave Mary a cold look, her gaze lingering on William for a few seconds before she said, "William, if you don't want Mary to be embarrassed later, I suggest you go in, say hello, and then leave."
With that, Emily turned, flicked her hair, and walked away, leaving a proud silhouette.
William was stunned. He had wanted to say a few grateful words, but he hadn't expected to still be looked down upon.
He exchanged a glance with Mary, who looked worried and asked, "William, are you okay?"
William shook his head, smiling. "Don't worry, Mary. It's fine, trust me."
With that, they entered the Turner family courtyard.
In the Turner family courtyard, tables were already set up for the banquet.
Of course, they were arranged in a hierarchy.
The table with the highest ranking was at the innermost hall, where Roy would sit. The main seat was still empty as Roy hadn't arrived yet.
The innermost tables were reserved for Roy's children and those who had significant connections with the Turner family.
Then there were four tables in the middle of the courtyard, set for relatives celebrating Roy's birthday.
The six tables with the lowest ranking were at the outermost hall for those who were essentially freeloaders.
"Wow, look, it's Jonathan, David's eldest son!"
Everyone's attention turned to a handsome young man entering the courtyard, who then walked towards the inner hall under the envious gazes of the crowd.
Even the elders and important figures already seated at the innermost tables focused their attention on Jonathan.
"Jonathan is the most outstanding among the Turner family's younger generation!" Many people in the courtyard sighed in admiration, and William furrowed his brow slightly.
The Turner family was considered a prominent family in Lindwood City, especially with Roy's extensive connections.
Jonathan, as the eldest son of David, Roy's eldest son, naturally received a lot of attention and affection.
Jonathan did not disappoint them. At a young age, he had already started his company and successfully went public, now worth two or three hundred million.
It could be said that Roy was very fond of Jonathan and was even preparing to groom him as the successor of the third generation.
Wade and Daniel, seeing Jonathan entering the inner hall, looked sullen and angrily drank a cup of coffee.
Everyone in the Turner family knew that Wade and Daniel did not get along with Jonathan.
Feeling uncomfortable, Wade looked at William, who was sitting near the door in the outer courtyard, and a sinister plan formed in his mind. He motioned to Daniel and walked over.
