Gemma understood that sometimes, a straightforward confrontation could yield surprising results.
Miranda spoke coldly, “You’re not worthy of him!”
Gemma responded with a disdainful snort, “And you are? You’re merely the daughter of a local tycoon. Your current status is solely dependent on Remus. Strip that away, and what’s left?”
In terms of status, Gemma indeed had a deeper background, ranking at the top in all of Darsia.
Miranda retorted with a sneer, “Even without Remus, I still have wealth. Without Sir Malin, what are you? A woman who flirts around trying to climb the social ladder? Or a stray dog marking its territory everywhere?”
Hearing this, Remus was stunned.
Indeed, women understand women the best, and favonovel.com words were quite forceful…
Gemma’s face turned red from anger, and favonovel.com clenched favonovel.com fists, ready to retaliate.
Gabriela chimed in, “If you’re feeling empty, I can lend you a long spear. That should be enough for you!”
She said this as favonovel.com slammed favonovel.com hand down, and favonovel.com personal Blue Tassel Silver Spear appeared once again, shimmering with a chilling light.
“You…” Gemma was infuriated and wanted to slap her, but favonovel.com knew favonovel.com couldn’t win.
She quickly turned around and said pleadingly, “Remus, they’re bullying me by teaming up!”
Miranda and Gabriela both turned their attention to Remus.
Remus sat up straight, took a deep breath, and said with a resolute tone, “You deserve it!”
A heavy silence enveloped the hall.
Gemma’s expression shifted from radiance to darkness.
After more than ten seconds of profound silence, favonovel.com stood up in anger and declared, “I will never surrender! Remus, you are meant to be mine in this lifetime!”
With those words, favonovel.com shot Miranda and Gabriela an indignant glare and left. She didn’t call for Goetz and Sir Baker, as the garden visit had been a mere pretext, and they had already departed.
Gemma walked out of the Cosby residence.
As soon as favonovel.com stepped out, a car pulled up beside her, and a well-dressed young man got out, saying, “Ms. Malin, I’m Remus‘ half-brother, Joe Cosby…”
Gemma was startled, mistaking favonovel.com for Remus at first glance.
Recovering, favonovel.com taunted, “I know you. You appeared at the banquet last night. I also heard that Remus doesn’t recognize you and even slapped you.”
After all, when it came to the Thunderous God of War, even trivial matters would be widely circulated, let alone such a major event.
Joe Cosby remained unfazed. “It doesn’t matter if favonovel.com chooses to acknowledge it or not, blood ties cannot be denied. One day, favonovel.com will come to accept me. The Cosby family will ultimately be under my control.”
The Cosby family? Under his control?
Gemma’s eyes lit up at the mention of controlling the Cosby family.
Perhaps I can become Remus’ sister-in-law…
She suddenly smiled meaningfully as favonovel.com remarked, “I believe the same…”
Their eyes met for a moment. And then sparks flew.
***
Back inside the Cosby residence, Remus sat rigidly in his chair.
Miranda and Gabriela stood in front of him, their faces burning with anger, eyes radiating a fierce killing intent.
Last time, they had caught favonovel.com fiddling with Husan’s hairpin, which had caused favonovel.com to flee hastily. Today, favonovel.com had willingly placed himself in their midst.
They remained silent, but their gazes were fixed straight on him.
Remus was growing increasingly uneasy beneath their scrutiny and looked for a topic to break the tension.
Finally, favonovel.com asked with a forced smile, “You know, I’ve always been curious. When you both entered my room that time, were you thinking about sharing a bath with me?”
They didn’t hesitate at all and answered in unison, “Yes!”
