Chapter 70
There were so many guests around. In a flash, Ignatius became extremely upset.
the Ford family.
He was already embarrassed by the scene that Michael caused. However, he was from the afterall. The Ziegler family was not up to their level.
“I see that any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to bark at the Lincoln family now?” Ignatius chided.
Lena was trembling in fear. She looked at me in shock. She looked like she was shooting laserbeams from her eyes.
“Stephany, you set me up… Mr. Ignatius, it wasn’t me… It was Stephany. She…”
“Grandpa, Lexy has been listening,” I said as I looked at the nanny, who was standing by the side.
She nodded. “Yes.”
Lena was in fear. “Mr. Ignatius… 1…”
“Where is this lady from?” Ignatius asked in a deep voice.
“She’s from the Ziegler family,” his assistant answered.
“Moving forward, the Zieglers are not allowed to attend any events related to the Lincoln family.They should first educate their own daughter. It’s only after that can they associate themselves withmy family again.”
Ignatius‘ voice was deep. He was taking this opportunity to give out a warning.
“Please leave.”
I gave Lena a mocking look. Recently, Ignatius had been filled with pent–up anger. She happenedto be oblivious and ended up triggering him.
Lena was completely freaking out now. She came to her senses after a while. She looked at me inastonishment. “Stephany, you… You did that on purpose? How dare you!”
She was about to hit me when she was stopped by the Lincoln family’s bodyguard. “Miss, you’renot welcome at the Lincolns‘ family dinner. Please leave.” novelbin
She kept staring at me. It seemed as if she was going to burn a hole through me with her gaze.
Stephany used to be submissive. She wouldn’t say a word to anyone no matter what happened.Lena must be feeling confused as to why she had suddenly changed.
I glared at her provocatively. Then, I went upstairs. It felt good to have someone backing me up.
However, the Lincolns weren’t backing me up. It was the baby that I was carrying.
Ignatius had to entertain the guests. I gave an excuse saying that I wasn’t feeling well and neededto rest. I retreated to my room and sent the nanny away.

From the window upstairs, I glanced down. There was no one else outside. I took this opportunity tochange into a different set of clothing and climbed down.
“Hi Rach, it’s me.” I ran out from the Lincolns‘ home and called Rachel.
Rachel stayed silent for a while before she said. “We’re not that close. You can call me Rachelinstead.”
1 acknowledged her request pretentiously. “Ms. Rachel, I heard that Yasmin was abducted by themurderer. Is that true?”
“It’s not,” Rachel answered unhappily.
I raised my eyebrow. This was similar to my theory. I had guessed that Yasmin was the one whostaged the incident. She just wanted to make Michael worry for her.
“So, I suppose that couple is playing house, aren’t they?” I remarked in a low voice.
“Yasmin acts well. When she regained consciousness at the orphanage, she said that someoneabducted her. The cops didn’t expose her either.
“Steve is under control, so she thinks that she’s safe. Zion has said that it’s highly unlikely thatSteve is the murderer. She’s just playing with fire. It would be her own fault if she ends up burningherself.”
Rachel wished that Yasmin could get rid of the murderer as soon as possible. She wanted themurderer to be gone.
“Let’s not talk about Yasmin and Michael for now. Have you found where Jack Brown is?” Isquinted. I thought of tackling the matter with Jack as a starting point.
“He’s at the bar. Where else could he be?” Rachel snorted. “I’m here, watching him. Do you want tocome over?”
“Of

course. Tonight… I’m going to scare him out of his wits!” I gritted my teeth and flagged down at
One by one, I would teach them a lesson. Jack would be the first!
