Chapter 241 They Don't Deserve It
Looking at the Brown family members in front of her, Luna remained calm. Her expression was no longer as angry as when she first saw them; instead, she was surprisingly composed.
She couldn't punish or torment herself because of their issues.
After all, she had long considered them strangers.
As she spoke, Lisa's face alternated between red and white. Just as she was about to argue, Luna interrupted her.
"When did you ever consider me family? You can stay here for now, but if you cause any more trouble, I'll take legal action! Do you think I can't live without this job? Just wait and see!"
Luna's attitude was resolute. To Alice and the others, this determination meant that now that Luna was married and had a husband to support her, she had grown wings. Even if she lost this job, she wouldn't starve.
Ella felt an indescribable jealousy seeing that Luna looked even better than when she lived with her.
The woman they had always controlled and planned for Ethan to marry had been snatched by another man. They hadn't even received a single dollar as a wedding gift, making it a losing deal no matter how they looked at it.
"Luna, don't get too cocky! You're still young! Ella has been through this; men are all the same, especially one who didn't give you a wedding gift and has no family support. He'll soon stop caring about you.
He's only treating you well now because it's still fresh. Once that wears off, when he starts hitting and cursing you, you won't have anywhere to cry! If you want security in the future, you need a wedding gift. It's best if he buys you a car.
If you don't know much about cars, you can ask Ethan for advice. After all, he's your cousin. Even if you can't be a couple, he can still help you in other ways."
Ella's intentions were all too obvious.
If Luna's husband really bought her a car, Ethan could use it first, saving her the money to buy one for him.
"Yes, Luna, we're your family. What good does it do you to offend all of us? If your in-laws bully you in the future, won't you need Evan to help you fight back? If you help Evan get into your police department, he can stand up for you if you're bullied there."
Lisa also took the opportunity to promote her son.
Seeing her so-called family calculating against her with every word, Luna didn't want to waste any more time with them. She stood up, ready to kick them out.
"Ava, call it in! There are people occupying the Report Room and refusing to leave! I need to take immediate action!"
Luna looked at Ava, who had also had enough of this family. Ava picked up her phone, ready to make the call.
Seeing that Luna was serious, Alice's face turned pale with anger.
"You dare take action? How do you know we're not here to file a complaint? We were just about to talk to your boss! Luke came to see you out of kindness, and not only did you not appreciate it, but you also tripped him and caused him to get hurt! I'm here to settle this score with you today!"
Alice shouted, her head held high, spitting as she spoke.
If one tactic didn't work, she would try another.
There was no way she was leaving empty-handed today. She had to get something out of Luna! At the very least, a few thousand dollars in compensation!
"Are you sure it was me who tripped Luke?"
Luna looked at her grandmother with amusement.
"Yes! It was you! Who else could it be? Ethan?"
Alice was adamant.
"Don't you know? A friend of mine was there when it happened and recorded the whole thing on her phone. I'm sending it to Cassandra right now. If anyone's to blame, it's Cassandra and Luke!"
Luna picked up her phone and sent the video.
She hadn't wanted to send it to Cassandra because she didn't want any contact with them. But since Alice brought it up, she saw no need to save face for them.
They didn't deserve it!
