Everyone was left shocked, Grandma Ning was fuming her precious grandson was insulted and betrayed to this point, the Ning parents could not believe their ears, they have always loved this potential daughter-in-law and wanted her for their son so badly, how did it turn out like this?
And lastly the Xie parents would have never have thought that their noble, elegant and wonderful daughter could this, in fact they didn't believe it. "This… this can't be true, I refuse to believe it, that wicked daughter of yours is trying to frame my daughter because she knows she could never compare", mother Xie continued to scream like a shrew while pointing at mother Ning.
At a point like this any normal mother would stand for their child no matter what, but mother Ning slowly slumped unto her chair seeming to believe that Catherine might have made it all up. looking at his wife reaction father Ning couldn't believe he was finally tired of the whole situation and wants this whole day to end.
"Housekeeper, send this people out of my house and never let them in" father Ning firmly ordered. Immediately the housekeeper heard his order, he along with five big and burly men who where the Nings family's personal bodyguards.
They swiftly moved the family three out of the room and out the house through a secret exit so the rest of their guest wouldn't hear the noise the Xie family where making.
Back in the tea room
Mother Ning who was stil in shock sat on her chair heartbroken making incoherent sounds "no, it can't be… I choose Ruby, no… no". Mother Ning abruptly stood up, "how are we sure that Catherine didn't fabricate this, I mean she has always been jealous of sweet Ruby. I can't…" before she could finish she was stopped by a sharp pain on her left cheek that left her sprawled on the floor.
At some point while mother Ning was rambling on Grammie Ning had already walked up to her throwing a sharp and firm slap. The slap came as a shock to everyone present.
Father Ning immediately ran up to his wife, seeing her on the floor with reddened eyes he felt a strong sharp pain in his chest leaving heartbroken. "Mother, why would you hit her? She is clearly heartbroken from the shocking news."
"You... Is Catherine really your daughter? Why would you speak ill of her."
