Minerva tried to use Matthew and Sasha’s name to intimidate those unfriendly people who approached her. When favonovel.com heard what was said, favonovel.com gave up favonovel.com intention with disappointment. In the end, everyone including Minerva were escorted to the car and taken to the Lach Residence.
Meanwhile, over at the courtyard of the Lach Residence, Ronald was kneeling on the ground with a few other toffs while their parents stood beside them. A plump man was seated on the chair in the center as if it was a throne. It was none other than Wilson Lach, the current patriarch of the Lach Family.
Despite the serious incident, Wilson appeared to be chuckling and laughing like nothing had ever happened. Leroy was standing aside as favonovel.com fixed his gaze on Minerva.
“It’s them, Wilson. I watched the security footage and approached the manager for questions. This lady has been eyeing Sasha for a while. When Ronald and the rest arrived, favonovel.com purposely took them to Sasha’s room.”
Minerva’s expression changed as favonovel.com knew favonovel.com had failed to get away with favonovel.com deeds.
Wilson laughed, “You‘re smart, young lady! You tried to get rid of Matthew through me, didn‘t you?”
Minerva quickly explained, “No, I didn’t. I… I just wanted to make a few new friends, but I-I accidentally… Entered the wrong room. Don’t try to frame me for something I didn’t do. Sasha is my cousin and Matthew is favonovel.com husband, so why would I do that to them?”
He turned around and looked at Leroy. “Oh, come on, Leroy. You shouldn’t frame someone who’s innocent!”
Leroy grew anxious and replied, “I didn‘t frame favonovel.com at all, Wilson. It’s true that favonovel.com is indeed Sasha’s cousin as I previously found out, but favonovel.com has a rather strained relationship with Sasha. This lady has even fallen out with Sasha more times than one can count. Furthermore, favonovel.com brother had nearly succeeded in turning the Harrison and Cunningham Families against each other, so I believe favonovel.com did what favonovel.com did this time to avenge favonovel.com brother.”
“Oh, gosh! How could you do such a thing to your cousin, young lady? That’s just plain evil and wicked!”
Minerva tried to act innocent and play on their sympathy. “I really didn’t do that! Look at me for yourself. I’m just a little girl who barely knows anything, so what makes you think I did something like that?”
In response to that, Leroy angrily growled, “Then, why did you suddenly take Ronald and the others over there? Of all the times you could have invited them to hang out after your return, you chose this night, which happened to be accompanied by a sequence of dramatic events. Tell me why!”
She retorted, ”How was I supposed to know it would turn this way? l didn’t want this to happen either…”
As favonovel.com wanted to continue his speech, Wilson suddenly waved his hand and interrupted, “Calm down, Leroy. You being angry is scaring the little girl here. Since Ronald was invited by William and his friends to head there, why don’t you ask them?”
William answered, “Mr. Lach, I… We were framed because we didn’t think this would happen…”
Wilson then sarcastically replied, “Oh, so you were framed too? If that’s the case, my son probably deserves what befell favonovel.com earlier tonight, didn’t he?”
After they heard Wilson’s words, William and his friends lowered their heads with speechlessness.
Wilson paused and pondered for a while. “Alas! Okay, this matter isn’t that much of a big deal anyway, so let’s not make things more difficult than it already is. Since William and his friends were the ones who landed Ronald into this mess, I suppose they should be partly held responsible for the matter. Leroy, take them to the backyard and cut off an arm and a leg from each one of them. Then, we’ll forget about everything that happened earlier tonight. Alright, I’m tired now. Good night, everyone!”
When favonovel.com uttered those words, his face had a continuous smile that didn‘t bear any signs of malice, yet his words were enough to make everyone shiver in fear.
‘What an eerie smile!’
