Chapter 91
The Saxon family had always been deeply rooted in tradition, prioritizing family honor and reputation above all ehe. Respecting elders, showing hospitality, maintaining humility, and adhering to a strict hierarchy–these values were second nature to them.
Growing up in such an environment, these rules and principles had been ingrained in every member of the Saxon family.
Even after marrying into the Fletcher family, Glola’s influence within the Saxon Group hadn’t waned; if anything, it had grown stronger.
Aria was undeniably talented, and Logan had once intended for her to join the Saxon Group. But with her strained relationship with the family, her path forward looked increasingly difficult.
More importantly, her sharp and defensive nature often ended up hurting those who genuinely cared about her.
Deliberately, Logan said in a low voice, “Aria, you might not think of yourself as part of the Saxon family, but you can’t change the fact that your last name is Saxon. Your aunt might have been blunt, but she didn’t mean any harm. She…
“Mr. Saxon.” Ana lifted her head slightly, the sunlight casting across her face. Instead of softening her features, it only highlighted her sharp, icy
demeanor.
She mocked calmly, “You’ve already cut ties with me. Now you show up with these people, blocking my way and lecturing me without so much as an explanation. What for? Did the Saxons run out of people to push around?”
Logan froze, caught off guard by the indifference and biting sarcasm in her gaze. He wanted to explain, but no words came out of his mouth.
He had thought that everything was under his control, and Aria’s alienation wasn’t within his expectations.
Tears welled up in Zoe’s eyes as she said, “Aria, it’s not like that. We already explained everything on WhatsApp–it was just a temporary measure. Now that the situation’s been resolved, your grandfather promised he won’t interfere with our branch anymore, and he won’t try to control you.”
They told her to ignore the online rumors, to endure it for a while. Once everything was settled, no one would stop her from returning to the Saxon
family.
Even Joseph would treat her as one of his own.
Whatever Silvia had, she would have too,
e could even join the Saxon Group, and with her abilities, her position wouldn’t below.
She
To them, it seemed like she was desperate to come back to the Saxon family.
Aria chuckled, her deep gaze sweeping over them. “What makes you think I’m desperate to come back? What has the Saxon family ever done for me? Why would I care about your approval or affection?”
When she was struggling and under attack from rumors, they didn’t stand by her. Instead, they used the excuse of “looking out for her future to sever ties with har
Now that the dust had settled, they suddenly wanted her back.
They were the ones who cut ties, and now they tried to get her back.
Gloria scoffed, her tone sharp. “Without the Saxon family, do you think you could’ve married into the Cole family? Could you have gotten the 150 million dollars and those shares?”
Aria let out a mocking laugh, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Ms. Saxon, is the Cole family some kind of treasure trave? Why does everyone act like marrying into their family was the jackpot for me? If the Cole family is so amazing, then why did you go to such lengths to call off the engagement back then?”

Several of the Cole Group’s busin
les were steadily declining, and signs of erials were beginning to emerge
The Saxon family thought the Cole family was beneath them and didn’t want Silvia to be part of the Coles. But when it came to Arie, en pointed to one thing without the Saxon family, she’d never have been able to marry into such a wealthy family.
Gloria’s face twisted in disdain. “You grew up in the countryside, with no education and nothing to show for yourself except partying and wast How could you possibly compare to Silvia?”
Silvia’s expression shifted, her voice sharp. “Aunt Glorial”
Zoe panicked, Instinctively stepping in. “Gloria, Silvia and Arla’s situations are completely different. How can you even compare them?”
In other words, Gloria shouldn’t have compared Aria to Silvia; Zor wasn’t defending Aria.
To the Saxon family, she wasn’t even worthy of being compared to Silvia.
Caleb’s face darkened, his voice colder than ice. “Aunt Gloria, are you here to apologize and bring her back, or just to stir up trouble?”
At that moment, Logan deeply regretted bringing Aria along. ‘Gloria, can you just stop talking for once?”
