Chapter 466
Why Is That Little Bitch So Hard to Deal With
Although their relationship wasn't very good, they hadn't deleted each other's contact information. After all, if something came up, they could still get in touch.
Claire Bennett was a little curious. She didn't know why Ava Bennett was calling her. Could it be that because she'd embarrassed her today, Ava Bennett was unwilling to let it go and was calling in the middle of the night to curse her out?
But Ava Bennett didn't seem like the kind of person who would do something like that.
Claire Bennett only hesitated for a moment before swiping to answer. "Hello, what is it?"
Her voice was cool and didn't sound especially close.
"Claire Bennett, do you want to know what Julian Sterling said to Dad? If you don't join Bennett Group, I can tell you."
Ava Bennett's smug voice came through from the other end of the phone. She and Hannah Bennett had eavesdropped on the conversation in the study. Although mother and daughter were shocked by the matter, they calmed down quickly, and now they had thought of using it to threaten Claire Bennett.
Since Victor Bennett had been able to send Claire Bennett away, then Claire Bennett definitely didn't know about this.
Presumably Claire Bennett very much wanted to know too.
When Claire Bennett heard Ava Bennett's words, her expression darkened. "Oh? Something even I don't know, but you do. Pretty impressive."
"Hmph! Of course I know. I put a bug in Dad's study. Just tell me whether you want to hear it or not. You know Dad called you out because he didn't want you to know about this."
Claire Bennett's eyes flickered, and she believed what Ava Bennett said.
That mother and daughter were so worried about her affairs that of course there was nothing they wouldn't do. Planting a bug was absolutely something they were capable of.
"Really? Don't worry, I'll definitely tell Dad that you put a bug in his study." Claire Bennett didn't let up verbally either and spoke unhurriedly.
"You!" Ava Bennett choked with anger and couldn't get any words out for a moment.
"Claire Bennett, cut the crap. You probably still don't know about this, right? Anyway, you've been away from Bennett Group for so long. There's no place for you when you go back now, so you might as well just withdraw."
Ava Bennett reacted extremely quickly. She soon regained her composure and had almost been led around by the nose by Claire Bennett.
"Oh, if I want to know, I can ask Julian Sterling myself. There's no need to hear it from you." Claire Bennett smiled a little teasingly.
She was never going to follow Ava Bennett's lead. There was no way Ava Bennett would be kind enough to tell her so readily; she might even fool her.
She had suffered that kind of loss who knew how many times when she was little.
People always have to learn from experience. Did Ava Bennett think she was still as easy to fool as before?
On the other end of the phone, Ava Bennett's face went dark when she heard that, and she gritted her teeth. "He won't tell you. If they wanted you to know, they definitely wouldn't have had you leave."
"Mm, thanks for telling me that. I'll look into it myself."
After saying that, Claire Bennett didn't say anything more to Ava Bennett and directly hung up.
Ava Bennett hadn't expected Claire Bennett to actually hang up on her. She stared at her phone for a long time without coming back to herself. Hannah Bennett beside her hurriedly pressed, "What happened? What did that little bitch say? Is she willing to withdraw from Bennett Group?"
Thinking of Claire Bennett's careless manner on the phone just now, Ava Bennett clenched her fists, her face full of resentment.
Claire Bennett wasn't willing at all!
In the end, she still couldn't bear to give up Bennett Group. She wanted to come back and fight her for Bennett Group's position, even if this matter involved Julian Sterling.
"Mom, she didn't agree to my condition."
Hannah Bennett's face darkened, and she said through clenched teeth, "That little bitch, why is she so hard to deal with."
The two of them looked awful to the extreme.
