Chapter 150 Plotting Against Jocelyn 

After Jocelyn left, Christina came downstairs and asked Rebecca, “Mom, what did Joyce want?” 

“Just keep an eye on Isabella!” 

Rebecca’s expression wasn’t pleasant. Originally, she intended to settle the matter between Jocelyn and Cedric to prevent any changes from happening. 

But now, she could see how the Lambert family was playing this. 

She had to admit that Isabella’s presence in the Johnson family did have some impact on this matter! 

“I got it, Mom. But what did Joyce mean by that?! 

“Oh, it just needs to be dealt with quickly!” Rebecca said irritatedly. 

In reality, her current thoughts were focused on another person. She closed her eyes, concealing the 

shrewdness in her eyes. 

Just as she was about to say something, the butler hurriedly came in. “Madam, there’s a delivery for you!” 

“Delivery?” 

“Yes, ma’am.” 

“Where is it from?” 

“It’s from Simeria.” 

Simeria? From abroad? 

Rebecca furrowed her brow even more because she hadn’t been shopping on foreign websites recently, 

so what was this? 

She took the package and opened it. Inside was a thick stack of photos. At a glance, Rebecca’s face. 

changed instantly. 

T–this is?” Rebecca stammered. “How can this be?” 

Her face turned pale. Christina, who was standing beside her, couldn’t believe what she was seeing. 

Rebecca looked at Christina, and the two of them exchanged a shocked glance. 

The more they saw, the uglier their expressions became. 

Smack 

Rebecca slammed the stack of photos onto the table in front of her. Her face darkened, and her chest 

heaved. 

She couldn’t bear to look anymore because the further down they looked, the more obscene it was! 

“How shameless of them! How can she talk to me about those things when this… this…!” Rebecca angrily 

exclaimed. 

Thinking about how Jocelyn had acted just now, Rebecca supposed the Lambert family had not idea 

what kind of person she really was. 

If they knew the true nature of their child, would they still dare to be so arrogant? 

Christina picked up the photos that had fallen to the floor and looked at them. 

“I–it really is Joyce. How can she be so shameless?” 

In the photo, Jocelyn was happily sitting in the lap of a foreign man. The man’s hands were out of the picture, but one could imagine what had happened after the photo was taken. 

“Stop looking!” 

Rebecca snatched the photos away and tore them to pieces. She acted as if those photos represented Jocelyn herself! 

That’s right. Rebecca really wished she could tear Jocelyn apart. 

If it weren’t for the Lambert family backing her… 

Rebecca would indeed do just that! 

No matter how angry she was, Rebecca was still considerate of Christina.

Christina was visibly startled by Rebecca’s anger, so the latter softened her tone to reassure her, “It will 

stain your eyes. 

Christina replied, “Mom, if you’re upset, I won’t look!” 

“How could she be that kind of person?” 

“Yeah, Joyce looks so gentle and sweet. How could she do such a thing!?” 

“Gentle my foot! Look at her. She’s no different from those flashy harlots!” 

+15 BONUS 

The more Rebecca thought about it, the angrier she became. With what she had discovered, Rebecca wouldn’t have any dealings with the Lambert family anymore. 

Although the Lambert family was an important presence in Verde City, she might never find peace in her lifetime if she ended up with a daughter–in–law like this! 

Fortunately, the engagement wasn’t set in stone yet. 

If it had been, it would have been heartbreaking for Rebecca to discover Jocelyn’s true colors later on! 

“Okay, stop it! Don’t be angry anymore!” Christina continuously tried to comfort Rebecca. 

Rebecca closed her eyes. 

Natalie flashed through her mind. 

She had to admit that she regretted her actions! 

She had wanted to keep some pride, but now it seemed impossible. 

“Mom, what do we do now?” 

“You know, about Isabella…” 

Isabella… Speaking of Isabella, Rebecca was even more furious! 

Isabella’s ability to enter the Johnson Manor using such means indicated that this woman’s tricks were extraordinary. 

Rebecca needed to act quickly. 

In any case, Isabella couldn’t be allowed to get involved with Cedric. After all, the future matriarch of the Johnson family couldn’t be someone a blind woman! 

“You keep an eye on her; I have a plan!” Rebecca replied curtly. 

In matters where she was uncertain of the outcome, she wouldn’t casually reveal her plans. 

After all, if it didn’t work out, it would be embarrassing for everyone. 

Christina nodded, “Alright, I understand.” 

But we still have to trust Ced; we don’t necessarily have to resolve everything through a marriage!” 

+15 BONUS 

However, Rebecca didn’t say anything; she just waved her hand in annoyance. 

Christina was naturally willing to trust Cedric’s judgment. 

If he could marry Natalie back then and have her stand behind him without any worries, he could surely handle the internal issues of the Johnson family now. 

Christina was filled with confidence in the man when she thought of his imposing figure. Cedric was 

indeed capable. 

However, some people, from the beginning, were eager to take shortcuts. Regardless of belief, shortcuts 

were always tempting! 

For example… Rebecca. 

Even though she knew Cedric was stronger than before, she… 

Rebecca left, and Christina had no idea where she went! 

The older generation of the Johnson branch families was undoubtedly planning to take action due to Cedric’s consecutive losses of two projects worth over a hundred million each. 

Adding on the uncertain marriage alliance with the Lambert family, they would surely make their move 

soon! 

Regardless of whether Cedric could truly resolve the internal conflict on his side, Rebecca would 

definitely seek a shortcut! 

Christina also wondered whom Rebecca would choose this time among the wealthy families‘ daughters. 

Jocelyn was truly out of the question! 

Just based on this stack of photos, Rebecca couldn’t possibly continue to like Jocelyn. 

Christina crouched down and picked up a photo. After lightly blowing the dust off it, a satisfied smile spread on her lips. 

“Hehel” 

So what if some people try to enter the Johnson family forcibly? 

Regardless of who it was, they would never make it as long as Christina didn’t agree to it! 

“Miss!” Wanda approached her with a gaze filled with indulgence. 

Compared to what the others in the Johnson family were feeling, Christina’s mood was exceptionally 

good. 

“Wanda.” 

“Yes, miss!” 

“Make me some snacks; I feel like eating something,” Christina said casually. 

Upon hearing that, Wanda nodded immediately. 

“Alright. I’ll personally make it for you, miss!” 

“That’s good. I like your cooking.” 

Wanda was one of Rebecca’s people. 

Although there were dedicated kitchen staff at the Johnson Manor, Christina just didn’t like the food they 

prepared. 

More often than not, she had a particular fondness for Wanda’s cooking. 

Wanda worked quickly and made some fruit tarts personally for Christina. She could easily capture 

Christina’s preferences. 

In turn, Christina ate three in a row. “Mmm! This is delicious!” 

“If you like them, please eat more, miss! As they’re all fruit–based, you won’t gain weight from eating them!” 

“Oh, Wanda. You really do understand me.”
