As William did not hold back with his slap, Lydia was now pressing her stinging face, and tears uncontrollably fell from the corner of her eyes.

Given Nicole’s honorable reputation as the Chief Designer of F&M Apparel, William already had the plans to reel her back into the Anderson Family.

Many years ago, Lydia had driven Nicole and her mother out of Anderson Residence and banished her from returning. “Did you even think why Queenie and Joseph would be in the same room, drugged at the same time?” Her eyes glistened with tears as she raised her head, looking resentful.

William’s body froze. He turned to Lydia’s tear-stained face and tensed his brows. After pondering for a bit, he quizzed, “You think it’s Nicole’s doing?”

Seeing as he was buying her implication, Lydia quickly replied, “What else could it be? Queenie was doing just fine with President Gardner. Why would she sleep with Joseph?”

William found her words reasonable.
