I’m Someone Else
Chapter 293

Chapter 293

At the sight of Quincy flying into a rage, Leah curved her lips upward into a pleased smirk.

She remembered how she had been heavily berated by Quincy in this very same room as clear as day,and now that the tables had turned, she would ensure that he got a taste of his own medicine.

“Madam Wilkerson, you—”

“Shut up!” Before Thomas could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Leah’s sharp voice. “Do youthink you’re worthy enough to speak? Do you? Just sit there and listen! If you don’t want to listen, thenleave! How did you make it this far without any manners?”

“Please calm down, Grandma. This brat is just an orphan without anyone to teach him the ways of life,so it’s normal that he doesn’t have any manners. You don’t have to waste your time on him!” Next toher, Leah’s grandson appeased her. What use was there to lose their temper over a worthless punk?Even speaking to him was a disgrace to themselves; it was much better to use that time to think abouthow to drag Olivia back to Capitalis instead.

“Yeah, you have a point.” Leah nodded in agreement.

Thomas’ face flushed crimson, his eyes blazing with anger.

The only thing that held him back from going on a rampage was Quincy’s hand that pressed on hisshoulder forcefully. “Calm down, Thomas. This isn’t the time to lose your temper. Think about Olivia!”

Quincy’s voice was extremely small, only loud enough for the two of them to hear.

He was seething with anger as well. As the esteemed top doctor of Droycore, he possessed bothstatus and influence, and there was no one who did not treat him with deference. And yet, things hadtaken a completely different turn today. It was infuriating enough to be mocked by Leah, but to add

insult to injury, he was now being verbally attacked by an immature brat, and even his friend wassubject to such ruthless belittlement.

How humiliating! This is definitely one of the most humiliating moments of my life!

Thomas raised the glass in front of him and downed it in a single gulp, hoping to use the alcohol to putout the flames of rage in his chest.

“Tsk, tsk. You’ve never had such fine wine in your entire life, have you? Well, that’s not a surprise. Alittle punk like you won’t be able to afford it anyway! In that case, drink all you want. Just think of it asan act of charity from us!”

Leah’s grandson wore an expression of disdain as he spoke. He had long heard of this man namedThomas as Gunnar and Olivia’s arranged marriage was a big deal in Capitalis, and so he paid moreattention to this matter than usual. At the sight of Quincy flying into a rage, Leah curved her lips upwardinto a pleased smirk.

From Leah’s words, it seemed that this man was Olivia’s boyfriend. Hmph, what an insolent thing. Doyou think you’re worthy of Olivia?

“You little…”

Quincy could no longer hold it in. He could somewhat understand Leah’s behavior as she held theupper hand over him, but how could her grandson have the nerve to be so impudent?

He was even on the brink of teaching that brat a lesson, but Thomas held him back. Just a fewseconds ago, he was the one restraining Thomas and stopping him from losing his temper, and now he

was the one being held back instead.

Leah felt extremely refreshed at the sight of Quincy’s predicament. If the news of today’s events spreadto Capitalis, it would definitely make headlines. After all, Quincy’s name was known far and widethroughout Droycore, and yet he was unable to say a word against her grandson. If people found outabout this, she would look good as well.

After taking a few deep breaths to quell his anger, Quincy asked, “Leah, are you saying that you haveto take Olivia away? Are there no other options?”

“Of course!” Leah said mercilessly. “As long as you let me take Olivia away, I will order someone toprepare a switch. Quincy, now that things have come to this point, I’ll tell you the truth. It’s none of yourbusiness where Olivia goes, and even if Terrence and Norman are dead, an outsider like you will neverhave the right to meddle in the Pearson Family’s affairs!”

Quincy trembled with anger. The implication of her words couldn’t be any clearer; she was essentiallytelling him to mind his own business. Even if her current husband were present, he would not be asimpudent toward Quincy like Leah was.

“Leah, are you so sure that I don’t have a solution for this?” Quincy shot to his feet and glared furiouslyat Leah. Ever since he entered the room, he had repeatedly held himself back, and yet she did notshow any intent of restraining herself and was stepping further out of line with every passing moment,and he could no longer put up with this humiliation.

On the contrary, Leah’s expression was unusually calm as she nodded. “That’s right. I know for certainthat you don’t have a solution. Am I wrong? Oh, I remember, you do have a solution, which is to makea comeback. However, do you have the courage to do that? You made Theodore from the DuncanFamily rush over to Irieson overnight to prepare for your comeback, right? But, now what? DidTheodore agree? I’m quite grateful on the Pearson Family’s behalf; I can’t believe that you’re still willing

to sacrifice so much for them even at a time like this. Ha, Quincy, both of us are old foxes, so stopplaying word games with me. You won’t dare to make a comeback!”

Saying that, she rose to her feet and met Quincy’s eyes, completely unafraid of him.

Crack, crack!

Quincy’s fists clenched tightly, a sharp crack emitting from his knuckles. Leah was right; he did havereservations about it deep within. The moment he made a comeback, what waited for him would benothing but never-ending troubles, and he might even lose his life. However, for the sake of his friend,he was willing to take the risk. Of course, he meant Thomas, and not a certain someone from thePearson Family!

“Hm?” Thomas stared at the two in confusion, wondering dubiously to himself, Comeback? Whatcomeback?

It seemed that Quincy was hiding something from him. Moreover, from Leah’s tone, it was clear that itwasn’t any good news. However, as Leah was still present, he decided to remain silent and questionQuincy once they left.

“Quincy, you’re not as old as me, at least not to the extent where you’d start losing your memory. I’msure you’re well aware of how you made it back to Irieson without needing me to remind you, right? Ifyou get involved in those conflicts again, it’ll be difficult for you to leave with all your limbs intact! ThePearson Family is all but dead, so do you think it’s worth it to put yourself in danger just for someoneelse’s family matters? It’s not like I’m sending Olivia to her death. I’m just going to make her marrysomeone, and her groom is even one of the best men there is. I just can’t understand how much freetime you have to stick your nose into something so irrelevant?”

Quincy’s eyes were bloodshot. “That’s none of your business. I can do whatever I want! If I want tomake a comeback, I will, and if I think it’s worth it, then it is!”

He was nearly going insane from anger. In his entire life, he was always the one berating others, andhe had never been mocked like this before. Not to mention, the person mocking him was an elderlywoman like Leah.
