Chapter 273: This Fox Spirit is Too Powerful
Hehehe, the Chameleon is back online!
Ivy Foster chuckled and leaned towards Alexander. She spoke softly, "Your fake grandmother is acting again."
Alexander naturally embraced Ivy and whispered gently, "She doesn't have much time left for her act. Let's give her a few more minutes."
Indeed, let's reward her with a few more minutes!
Fiona Foster approached Ivy with a stern face and said, "Ivy, what kind of love potion did you give my great grandson? Hand over that bag of seashells now if you know what's good for you! Otherwise, don't blame this old lady for being impolite to you!"
Ivy turned to Alexander and asked, "Alexander, are these colorful pearl seashells really the treasured possession of the Ashford family?"
Alexander decisively shook his head, "No! I have never heard of the Ashford family having such a treasured possession."
Ivy shrugged, "Mrs. Ashford, even the heir of the Ashford family doesn't recognize these seashells as our family's treasure. Do you still want to continue extorting me?"
Fiona angrily retorted, "Alexander knows nothing! The secret of a family treasure is generally not publicized, and Alexander has not been privy to all of our family’s knowledge and secrets."
Ivy slightly curved her lips, "Then may I ask, when will it be the right time?"
Fiona said, "If one day, this old lady feels that she is not doing well, then naturally I will pass this secret on to the next head of the family."
"Oh?" Ivy couldn't help but find it amusing, "May I ask who the previous head of your family was? Was it your husband, Beckett, or your eldest son, Jaxon?"
Fiona didn't hesitate and answered directly, "Naturally, it was my husband, Beckett. How could it be my son, Jaxon?"
Ivy tugged at the corner of her mouth and said, "Well, that's strange. The secret of a family treasure can only be passed on when the head of the family feels that they are not capable anymore and passes it on to the next head of the family.
But as far as I know, Beckett died suddenly. So, I'd like to ask, did Beckett tell you the secret of the family treasure before his sudden death or after?"
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but cover their mouths and giggle.
Fiona was both angry and furious, "Ivy, who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to ask me these questions?
Beckett loved me very much, and he told me the secret of the family treasure the day I gave birth to our twin sons.
This is my personal matter, and if it weren't to prove my innocence, I wouldn't have to tell you!"
Ivy didn't care about Fiona's explanation at all. She turned to Leo and asked, "Leo, tell me, are the colorful pearl seashells the treasured possession of the Ashford family?"
Leo looked extremely disappointed and glanced at his grandmother. He shook his head firmly, "No, they're not."
"Ivy was picking these shells up by the river My cousin and I are witness to this by our very own eyes," Leo said, causing a stir among the crowd.
"Mrs. Ashford's grandson and great-grandson aren't defending her, what exactly is going on?"
"Who knows? Maybe this old lady is really lying..."
This Leo, why does he always favor others over his own family? Fiona gnashed her teeth in anger.
"I'm not lying!" Fiona pointed at Ivy, "It's this seductress who's the real troublemaker. She not only seduced my grandson Alexander, but also my great-grandson Leo!
Do you all remember what happened four years ago? Four years ago, Leo was to be married, and his bride was Ivy.
However, on their wedding day, not only did this wench Ivy not show up, but also had someone create a video that tarnished Leo's reputation.
Why did she do that? Because she had her eyes on my grandson Alexander, she wanted to switch her affections! That's why she didn't hesitate to do anything to frame my dear great-grandson.
I bet you, if Ivy had known back then that Leo was my own great-grandson, she certainly would not have done this. She went through all this trouble, all this scheming, just to marry into a wealthy family!"
The crowd looked at Ivy with strange eyes, some filled with disdain, others with mockery...
