Chapter 101 Make Unfounded Countercharges
“It’s you! It must be you! Lennon has always been honest and proper, he would never do such a thing against human decency, how come he doesn’t do this to others but to you? It must be you who is seducing him!” Hattie lost her soul for a moment and suddenly saw Ruby who was sitting aside and talking to Levi with her head down. Suddenly she jumped up and pounced towards her with curses.
Ruby looked frightened and subconsciously hid behind Levi.
Levi, on the other hand, moved his wheelchair and blocked in front of her, his gaze cold as he looked at Hattie and opened his mouth to scold, “So you mean it is Ruby’s fault that she was hurt like this. What does your own son look like, don’t you have any idea in your own heart?”
Levi was never a soft touch, otherwise he wouldn’t have had that hefty reputation that people feared.
This time because of the car accident paralysis, Hattie almost forgot Levi was domineering. At this time being coldly reprimanded by him, she suddenly stopped her action, with a pale face, lightly biting his lips, looking at Levi, full of reluctance!
She hated it!
Levi was paralyzed and had no chance of being the heir to the family, but she didn’t expect Lennon to have this kind of thing happen at this juncture!
“Mom, I, I really don’t know why Lennon would do this, I, I …” Ruby looked at Hattie with big innocent eyes, and as she said that, tears started to fall down, that look of pity made the people around feel unbearable.
What was more, she still had injuries on her face at this time, and her body was draped with Lennon’s jacket, and every bruise on her face was a silent accusation against Lennon.
“Had enough of the drama? Isn’t it enough to be humiliated?” Isabella was so angry that she knocked the cane in her hand and snapped it, and after scolding viciously, she coughed in anger.
When Hattie heard the old lady speak, she didn’t dare to continue to make a scene, shrinking back and sitting in her seat, lowering her head and wiping her tears with resignation.
“Grandma, this matter can’t be let off so easily. Lennon did such a thing today, and the media has also exposed it, if our family still condones it, what will people outside think of our family? What will those people we work with think of us?” Levi sat there with a cold face, and did not look at Hattie who was whimpering, but only looked at the old lady.
The old lady felt humiliated to see this thing happened, at this time when she heard the words of Levi, she was too furious to breathe and felt dizzy at once.
But in the end, she was also a person who had experienced great storms, she quickly calmed down and looked at Levi with a sober face, “Family scandals should not be publicized, that is it, no one is allowed to mention it again!”
The corner of Levi’s mouth tugged, pulling out a mocking smile.
This was the Finn family, beautiful on the outside but dirty on the inside.
He should have known when his mother died that he shouldn’t have had any hopes for his grandmother.
“Grandma, it is up to you.” Ruby spoke softly with a well-behaved and understanding look.
Isabella gave her a glance, and under her cloudy eyes was a shrewd look.
Ruby had the feeling of being targeted by a poisonous snake, but she still maintained that harmless posture, sitting there quietly with her eyes downcast, no resistance or dissatisfaction could be seen.
Isabella stared at her for a while before she coldly withdrew her gaze.
A footstep sounded at the door, and a short while later, a middle-aged man with a cold face walked in with quick steps.
The man had a square face, wearing a black suit, with stern coldness all over his body, after entering the door, his cold sharp gaze swept over Levi, before he walked up to the old lady and greeted her respectfully, “Mom, you called me back in such a hurry, was there something going on?”
It was the first time Ruby had seen Natan, and he hadn’t shown up the last time he went to the Harold family to discuss the marriage.
“Natan.” As soon as Hattie saw her man return, she shouted out in aggravation, and then started crying.
Natan gave her a cold look and grunted, not responding.
The old lady raised her hand and pressed her swollen temples before she spoke, “It’s good that you’re back, see what you’re going to do about Lennon’s matter.”
“What has Lennon made a mess of again?” Natan inquired in an unkind tone.
“You, you tell him.” Isabella did not want to talk about it, and pointed her finger at the butler on the side, instructing him to go and explain to Natan.
The butler stepped forward and told the whole story. After listening to it, Natan’s thin lips pursed into a straight line, and only after a long time did he look coldly at Levi, “You have to make the family unsettled before you feel at ease, right?”This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Levi raised his eyebrows and absently met Natan’s eyes, “You didn’t teach your own son well, and you blame me?”
“What a lack of rules! That’s your brother! Your own brother! What do you want now? Want to send him to jail?” Natan was so angry that his temples popped out, pointing at Levi and cursing.
Levi still had that indifferent look, his eyes didn’t even stagger for a moment, he just looked at Natan calmly.
His father was consistently eccentric, and he had long since grown accustomed to.
Ruby was originally shrinking behind Levi to watch the drama, at this time, hearing Natan’s indiscriminate words, she immediately wrinkled her brows and subconsciously glanced at the man sitting in front.
She was only able to see Levi’s side face, his jaw was tense, visible at this moment in holding back his temper.
For some reason, seeing Levi made her think of her own situation.
How similar was her situation in the Harold family to that of Levi?
“Sir, this matter is not to blame on Levi, he just felt sorry for me and saw me being bullied, that’s why he wanted to stand up for me. We won’t pursue it, don’t blame him.” Ruby stood out, her body slightly blocking in front of Levi, blocking his gaze from Natan’s.
It was only then that Natan took a serious look at the woman in front of him.
Her features were charming, full of a soft and lovely aura, especially that face, stunning and beautiful, no wonder Lennon would be tempted by her and do such shameless things.
He grunted coldly, “If you knew shame, you wouldn’t have given Lennon such an opportunity to strike at you, in the end this matter, it’s still your fault.”
Ruby froze for a moment, not expecting that someone could turn the facts upside down.
“You are right, I was the one who allowed Lennon to be seduced by me and still lusted after me without regard for moral decency, I will go to the reporter tomorrow and make it clear that this time it was all my fault and had nothing to do with Lennon. He just made a mistake that any man would make.” After Ruby lowered her head and admitted her mistake with a good attitude.
Just as her words left her mouth, Natan’s face changed abruptly and was terribly cold.
