Chapter 84: The Taylor Family Offended Bruce!

Everyone in the Taylor family looked at Shauna with eager eyes. They all wanted to find out from Shauna who the Taylor family had offended.

Shauna glanced at them silently. Although this was only her guess, the recent events seemed to be related to Bruce.

She had always guessed that Bruce probably had some kind of incredible big shot.

The crisis that the Taylor family was facing this time was very likely arranged by him. His purpose was to seek justice for Brianne.

After all, the Taylor family was so mean to Brianne that even she couldn’t stand it, let alone Bruce, who had been her childhood friend.

Although the Taylor family had only themselves to blame for their current situation, it was still her family after all. Shauna still didn’t want to see the Taylor family destroyed like this.

Therefore, after some mental struggle, she slowly said Bruce’s name.

The moment Shauna said Bruce’s name, Freisa blurted out, “Bruce? You mean that b*stard? How is that possible? Don’t joke with us!”

Her tone was full of contempt and doubt.

“Are you out of your mind? How can a guy who has just been released from prison have such abilities?” Serena scoffed.

“Yes, your guess is unreasonable. Other people might be able to do it, but how could Bruce be so capable?” Zeke didn’t want to believe it.

Shauna laughed bitterly, as if she had expected their reaction.

But she still said, “I know that none of you want to believe it, but that is my guess.

“Mom, do you still remember what Bruce said when he left the Taylor family yesterday?

“Yesterday, he said those words, and today, something happened to the Taylor family. Do you think that this is a coincidence?”

When the Taylor family members heard this, their expressions turned gloomy, but they still didn’t want to believe in Shauna’s guess.

After all, in their eyes, Bruce was a jinx, a scourge, and a wretched b*stard.

For so many years, they had always thought so. They were unwilling to suddenly admit that Bruce had such powerful methods.

“I think this is a coincidence!” Freisa said with certainty. “He is the jinx of the Taylor family. As long as he appears, nothing good will happen to the Taylor family.

“In the past, my brother-in-law drained the Taylor family just to help him start a business. Now, it’s because of him that the Taylor family has been plagued with disasters ever since he came back.

“In my opinion, he’s compatible with the Taylor family. We should tell him to get as far away as possible. It’s best to send him back to prison so that he won’t bother us.”

After hearing Freisa’s words, Shauna smiled helplessly. This person was really hopeless. Even at this critical moment, she still didn’t forget to push the responsibility to others.

At this moment, Shauna became even more disheartened toward this family.

At this moment, Old Madam Taylor, who had been frowning without saying a word, hesitated for a long time before finally saying, “Shauna, do you have evidence for your guess?”

Upon hearing this, Shauna shook her head in a disheartened manner. “This is all my guess. If you don’t believe me, I have no other choice. Just wait for them to destroy the Taylor family.”

Upon hearing this, a hint of resentment appeared on Old Madam Taylor’s face, but she didn’t vent it out. Instead, she said in a sullen voice, “This time, I’ll believe you for once.”

Then, Old Madam Taylor looked at Serena and said, “Serena, go with Shauna. On behalf of the Taylor family, apologize to Bruce.”

“Grandma! Why should I apologize to that b*stard? I’m not going!” Serena said angrily. Making her lower her head to Bruce was absolutely impossible!

When Old Madam Taylor heard this, her expression instantly darkened and she scolded, “The Simmons family is unreliable. Now, we can only try Shauna’s method. Can’t you sacrifice a little bit?

“If you are willing to go, when you marry Franklin, I will still give you 10% of the shares so that you can marry into the Simmons family in glory.

“But if you don’t go today, you won’t be able to take a single cent from the Taylor family!”

“Grandma, you!” Serena was so angry that she was speechless. Her pretty face was filled with resentment.

Old Madam Taylor ignored Serena, as if she didn’t see her expression at all. She turned around and said to Shauna, “If the Taylor family can really get through this difficult time, I will believe what you said.”

When Shauna heard this, she smiled helplessly. She didn’t say anything else.

She walked to Serena’s side and said indifferently, “Aren’t you going to hurry up?”

Serena’s face was full of resentment as she stomped her feet fiercely and followed reluctantly.

Seeing Shauna and Serena leave, Old Madam Taylor let out a heavy sigh in a listless manner, as if she had aged a lot in an instant.

At this moment, in the hotel where Bruce and Brianne were staying, Brianne still had a worried look on her face. No matter how much Bruce tried to persuade her, she couldn’t stop worrying.

At this moment, she felt very guilty. She felt that if she had been a little more capable, the Taylor family wouldn’t have made things so difficult for her and Bruce.

If she could become the general manager of the Taylor family, then she would be able to fulfill her father’s last wish. Moreover, she would be able to help Bruce appeal his case and clear his name.

But now, it was too late to think about anything. It was all his fault for not having the ability and getting the Taylor family’s approval, which led to the current situation.

“Bruce, I’m sorry. It’s my fault for being useless. Not only couldn’t I help you, but the Taylor family made things difficult for you because of me and you were targeted by them…” After Brianne said this, her eyes couldn’t help but redden again.

Seeing this, Bruce hurriedly comforted her patiently. “It’s okay. This isn’t your fault. No matter how capable you are, they won’t let you be the general manager.

It can only be said that what they did was their loss. They looked down on you because they were blind.

However, I think they will soon regret it. Perhaps, they will come and beg you to go back later.”

Hearing Bruce’s words of comfort, Brianne felt even more bitter in her heart. How was this possible? They had already said so yesterday. How could they let her go back?

“Bruce, actually, I’ve thought about it. Even if I have to be Serena’s assistant, I’m willing to. At least, it’s better than now,” Brianne said sadly.

Bruce reached out and scratched her little nose. He smiled and said, “How can that be? I said I’ll let you be the general manager, so you’ll definitely be the general manager. What, you don’t believe my words anymore?”

Brianne rolled her eyes and said with a smile, “You only know how to brag. If you continue like this, I will be too embarrassed to cry.”

Bruce saw that Brianne finally revealed a smile, and he also laughed. At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

“Brianne, are you inside? It’s me.” Shauna’s voice was heard.

Brianne was stunned. She looked at Bruce in confusion. “What’s she doing here?”

When Bruce heard this, he said with amusement, “Maybe she brought the Taylor family to apologize and ask you to go back?”

When Brianne heard this, she rolled her eyes at him again. “Stop babbling nonsense.”

“You don’t believe me? If you don’t believe me, let’s make a bet. If I’m right, you’ll marry me. What do you think?” Bruce said with a smile.

Brianne blushed and said to Bruce, “How can you say that in this situation? I’m going to ignore you. I’ll go open the door.”

After saying this, Brianne ran to open the door shyly. Her pretty face was blushing, and even her ears were red.

However, the moment she opened the door, she froze on the spot. Her face turned cold, and she said in disgust, “Serena? Why are you here?”
