Chapter 757 Sending Them to the Beggar's Hideout
Lyra also grabbed Isadora's hand, "We have always been old, weak, sick, and disabled, lacking fresh blood, especially someone as beautiful as you, Emily.
"After you join us, we won't have to beg anymore and worry about others discriminating against us," Evander said. Victoria and Isadora turned pale with anger. But Evander continued, "Emily, you and your mother both look good. Whether it's begging on the bridge or sleeping in the bridge cave, you two will take the lead. Don't worry, I will give you the best treatment. When you beg, I will find two intact bowls for you to showcase your elegance. When you sleep, I will find the cleanest straw, thick enough for your comfort. Underneath the straw, clean cardboard will be placed, and on top of the straw, the best newspaper will ensure you are warm and comfortable!"
"You..." Victoria was so angry she almost vomited blood. Pointing at Beckett, she gasped, "So you... you're a beggar, not the real Beckett. You all are beggars!"
Alexander barely held back his laughter and said, "Madam, my grandfather and my parents, as well as my aunts and uncles, died 20 years ago. Don't you know about that?"
Ivy said, "They are just actors we hired."
"Actors?" Victoria became furious. "You... you are going too far!"
Ivy sneered. "Who is going too far? We begged you to come here to acknowledge your family!"
Victoria was unwilling to accept this. With a bold face, she insisted, "The person I want to acknowledge is the real Beckett, not this impostor, and definitely not a beggar!"
"What's wrong with being a beggar? It's a legitimate profession!" Jaxon pointed at Beckett and said, "He's our boss. If you marry him, you will be our lady, and your daughter will be our miss. Wherever you beg, no one will dare to bully you!"
"Enough!" Isadora lost her temper.
Pointing at Alexander, she exclaimed, "How could you go so far? Hiring a beggar to impersonate your grandfather! Listen, Alexander, whether Beckett is alive or dead, I'm still his biological daughter and your biological aunt. Starting today, my mother and I won't leave. We will live in the Ashford family!"
Victoria immediately echoed, "Yes, I gave birth to Beckett's daughter. I have the right to claim a share of the Ashford family's assets. From today onwards, we, the mother and daughter, will live here!"
Alexander and Ivy were both furious and speechless.
They thought that once they turned themselves into beggars, Victoria and Isadora would sneak away in embarrassment. Who would have thought that they had thicker skin than a city wall and were determined to enter the Ashford family. Ivy tied her long hair with a hair tie, preparing to deal with them personally. But then she saw Beckett raise his hand with a loud clap.
One slap landed harshly on Victoria's face.
"Why did you hit me? You filthy beggar!" Victoria was furious, dropping her bag and preparing to fight with Beckett.
With just one hand, Beckett restrained Victoria's movements.
He scolded her fiercely, "What did you just say? You said that no matter my status, I will always be Emily's biological father, the only man for you, Victoria. Whether poor or rich, you will stay by my side until the end of our lives. Since you've chosen to be with me, you better be obedient. Dare to play with me, and thousands of beggars won't spare you!"
Victoria turned pale with fear, unsure of how to argue.
Meanwhile, Isadora watched calmly without changing her expression.
Beckett waved his hand and commanded, "The rest of you, quickly get them a decent outfit, send them to the beggar gathering place, so they don't embarrass themselves here!"
