Chapter 551 Why Are You Defending This Bitch


    Linsey remained perfectly poised, unfazed by the presence of the influential figures surrounding her.


    Cruz, having watched Jeffery press Linsey for answers without sess, finally lost his patience. "Jeffery, just hand the document to Ms. Brooks," he said firmly.


    Jeffery''s lips tightened in reluctance, but he obeyed. Passing the document to Linsey, he said, "You only need to figure out how to get this to the founder. Once you aplish that, we-"


    Before he could finish his words, the door to the private dining room burst open with a loud crash.


    Everyone turned in stunned silence, eyes widening at the sudden intrusion.


    Standing in the doorway was Carol, her face twisted with fury.


    Her gaze locked onto Linsey, darkening with even more hostility.


    "Linsey!" she rasped, her voice raw with rage.


    The sheer intensity of her outburst sent a ripple of unease through the room.


    "Carol? What are you doing here?" Jeffery was the first to react, rising to his feet in confusion.


    He wanted to ask where she had beenst night, but with M and Cruz present, he decided to hold back for


    now.


    Carol paid him no attention. Her fiery gaze remained locked on Linsey, her expression almost unhinged.


    Linsey, on the other hand, was no stranger to Carol''s animosity. With a slight lift of her brow, she said calmly,


    "Miss Lawson, what now? Are you nning to attack me again?"


    That single remark sent Carol over the edge. With a furious scream, she lunged forward.


    As she reached Jeffery, she shoved him aside without hesitation.


    Caught off guard, Jeffery stumbled to the side, his expression one of shock. Carol, eyes burning with rage, raised her hand, fully intent on striking Linsey. But Linsey had no intention of standing still and taking the hit.


    Just as she was about to defend herself, a firm grip from behind pulled her back.


    "That''s enough, Carol! What do you think you''re doing?" M''s sharp voice rang out, filled with disbelief.


    She hadn''t seen Carol since returning from abroad yesterday, and after more than a year apart, this was hardly the reunion she had expected.

    Chapter 551 Why Are You Defending This Bitch


    Watching her daughter now-wild, furious, acting without restraint-Alena could hardly believe her eyes.


    When had Carol be this reckless?


    Charging at someone without warning? Was this the behavior of a Lawson?


    Despite her shock, M chose her words carefully, she wouldn''t reprimand Carol too harshly-not in front of


    Linsey


    But Carol saw only one thing-her mother stepping in to shield Linsey.


    The sight made her blood boil. Eyes zing and voice trembling with anger, Carol turned on M. "Mom! Why are you defending this bitch? Why are you having dinner with her? Why?"


    M froze, startled by the sheer emotion in Carol''s voice. For the first time, she looked at her daughter not just with concern-but with disappointment.


    When had Carol be so unhinged? She was yelling at her own mother in front of an outsider.


    Cruz immediately stepped in, positioning himself between M and Carol. Linsey was also shielded behind him.


    Cruz fixed Carol with a sharp, disapproving look, his voice firm and unyielding. "Carol! Is this how you speak to your mother?"
