The Heiress Strikes Back

642 Coward

Steven glanced at Wallace and said, “I don’t know what’s wrong with Olivia today. She’s been staying in the backyard. Something might have happened.”

“Then why don’t we go take a look together?” Sharon suggested with a smile.

Sue wanted to rush up and tear Sharon’s mouth apart. “As an outsider, why are you always getting involved in our family’s matters? Don’t think that just because you have the Harris family as your backer, you can spout nonsense here. Our Olivia is an innocent and good girl. How can she be with a man in private?”

Sue originally wanted to frame Sharon, but now she had tried to gain an advantage only to end up worse off. If something really happened to Olivia, wouldn’t her money be gone?!

Old Master Snape felt that something was wrong. In order not to make things awkward, he could only calm the situation down. “Alright, call Young Miss over and let this matter rest.”

“Let what matter rest?” Lawrence’s voice sounded in the hall. Everyone turned around and saw Lawrence walking in with a gift in his hand.

When he saw Sharon and Wallace standing together, Lawrence’s expression revealed shock and disbelief, as if he was asking why Sharon was here.

“Speaking of which, I have a question too.” Wallace frowned and looked at the maid beside him. “You just insulted my wife for sleeping with another man in the backyard. Shouldn’t you give us an explanation?”

Wallace’s words pulled everyone’s attention back to the matter. It seemed like Wallace was right. Just now, it was indeed the servants of the Snape family who said in front of everyone that Sharon was fooling around with another man.

“She just saw wrongly. Why are you making a fuss over nothing? Can’t she say anything about Mr. Harris’ wife?” Lawrence originally wanted to join in the fun, but he didn’t expect himself to come at the wrong time.

“In that case, call the police. Because of your slander, it has affected my reputation.” Sharon glanced at the maid with a cold gaze.

“No... no!” The maid didn’t expect this to have something to do with her, but when she saw that Sharon really looked like she was going to call the police, she panicked.

“Sharon, do you have to do this?” Lawrence gritted his teeth.

Unexpectedly, the maid couldn’t stand Sharon’s gaze and apologized directly. “It’s Miss... Miss and Madam asked me to say it. This matter has nothing to do with me. Young Madam Harris, I didn’t want to slander you! It was Miss who asked me to frame Young Madam Harris for being in the backyard with a man... I wanted to bring everyone along, but I didn’t expect Young Madam Harris to suddenly appear.”

For a moment, everyone’s gazes landed on the maid.

“Sharon, don’t go too far. Aren’t you forcing her to apologize?” Lawrence couldn’t help but wonder if he hadn’t caused any trouble for too long. Why did he feel that even the people in Port City weren’t afraid of him anymore... They even ignored him time and time again.

“What exactly is going on?” Old Master Snape glanced at his son and couldn’t help but question.

“Young Master Kobe, your words are a little strange. You also know that this is the Snape family. Can’t I stand up for myself after being insulted by the Snape family?”

Sharon looked at Lawrence. She knew that Olivia definitely didn’t do this alone, but she didn’t expect Lawrence to really come to watch the show.

Lawrence was choked by Sharon’s words and didn’t know what to say. He could only look at Old Master Snape for help.

Old Master Snape was also confused. There were many things he did not know, so he could only glare at the maid standing at the side.

The maid thought that she had said something wrong and quickly changed her words. “It’s not that Miss and Madam asked me to say it. I just...”

“You just took a look from afar and felt that that person was my wife, so you can slander the Young Madam of the Harris family as you please?” Wallace’s tone was filled with disbelief as he frowned.

Footsteps suddenly came from the living room corridor. The butler of the Snape family looked terrified and shouted that something had happened.

“Something happened, something big! Miss, she...” The butler was about to say something, but when he saw so many people, he hesitated.

Sharon naturally knew what had happened. She looked at the butler and said, “It seems like the Snape family isn’t much. First, they assigned a maid to slander me, and now that something really happened, they’re going to hide in their shells?”
