Felix's gaze sharpened, and he instinctively pulled Vicki behind him, standing in front. He coldly said, "What do you mean? She is my wife. It's not your place to question her!"
Reese's eyes flared with anger. "You ungrateful child, I am your father!"
"Heh. You're my father? Do you have the face to meet my mother underground? Tell her, are you still her husband?" Felix put away his usual nonchalant smile and replaced it with a chilling coldness.
"You! You!" Mr. Reese stomped his foot in anger, but deep down, he felt guilty. He had a guilty conscience towards Felix's mother. She had once been his moonlight. Even after all these years, she was still the person he loved the most. It was just that over time, he didn't want to face it anymore and didn't want to admit it.
"You can't change the fact that you have the blood of the Saunders family. You will always be my son." Reese sneered, "My daughter-in-law, why can't I ask? The Saunders family indeed needs a capable mistress, but it must not be someone who will destroy the Saunders family."
Felix was about to say something, but Vicki suddenly grabbed his arm.
Approaching Reese, Vicki smiled faintly. "Mr. Reese, do you want to know what my purpose is in entering the Saunders family? Are you thinking that I want to destroy the Saunders family?"
Reese glared coldly at Vicki.
Vicki smiled again. "If I say yes, then what?"
Reese's eyes immediately turned cold. "You insolent woman! I can kill you! I, Reese, still have the capability."
Felix grew anxious and pulled Vicki tightly, but he couldn't shake her even a bit.
Vicki sneered. "Kill me? That's not so easy. Many people have wanted to kill me, but so far, no one has succeeded."
"Don't waste your breath on him." Felix wanted to pull Vicki away. "Let's go."
"Wait." Vicki shook her head. She approached Reese, looking him straight in the eyes. "Mr. Reese, do you want to know my true purpose? Is it that you want to destroy the Saunders family?"
Reese's eyes narrowed, and a chill emanated from him.
"If destroying means saving," Vicki continued, "then why not? Destruction is necessary for rebirth. The current Saunders family should also undergo a change of leadership!"
"What do you mean?" Mr. Reese squinted his eyes, his body radiating coldness.
"The mistress is lacking in virtue and ability, she is tyrannical and greedy. The illegitimate child is scheming, and the legitimate child wants to establish his own power. The youngest child is unruly and unbearable. The branches of the Saunders family are complex, and for a hundred years, there have been power struggles and continuous conflicts. Neither completely black nor completely white, surviving in the cracks. How can it compare to the glory of the past? It is better to discard the previous pot and start anew with fresh soil and new seeds. Don't you understand this, Mr. Reese?" Vicki was utterly straightforward. "Calling you 'father' is already being polite. Father, it's time for you to step down!"
