Chapter 236: Chapter 236: Say What You Just Said Again
Translator: 549690339
Todayâs banquet was intended for Mag Evans to seize the opportunity to build a good relationship with the ladies of Fragrant House, but Xaviera ruined that chance!
The entire room was quiet.
At this moment, Mag Evans had tears in her eyes: âDad, since my sister doesnât welcome us, Iâll leave with mom right now!â
Derek Evans looked at his aggrieved daughter and was suddenly furious: âXaviera! You edited this video! Are you trying to drive your sister and stepmother to death? Youâre ruthless!â
âYou troublemaker! Sinister guy! Why canât you be sensible and gentle like your sister? Get out of the Evans family right now!â
âMr. Evans.â
Suddenly, Albert Sullivan spoke with a cold smile: âIâve listened for a while, and
the more I hear, the more confused I become?â
He slowly walked up to Derek Evans, his tone ice-cold: âIt seems that Xaviera was the one being framed. Why does Mr. Evans demand that she swallow her anger and even scold her harshly?â
âMr. Sullvian, donât blame my dad. Heâs justâŠâ Mag Evans hurriedly explained, her eyes slightly red, feeling very wronged.
Albert Sullivan waved his hand, âMiss Mag Evans, Iâm not talking to you. Please could you shut up? But you did make some sense.â
Mag Evans, who had just been feeling heartbroken, heard the last sentence and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Albert Sullivan was affirming her words, so there might be a turning point in the situation. Had he taken a liking to her?
Mag Evans showed a shy expression, âMr. Sullvian, actually IâŠâ
âMiss Evans said that you should leave the Evans family with Rose Campbell right away, and I think that makes sense. I agree.â
Albert Sullivan said leisurely: âRose Campbell destroyed someone elseâs family as a mistress, and you inherited your motherâs mantle, snatching other peopleâs boyfriends. Itâs indeed time for you to get out.â
Mag Evansâ lips turned pale, her body trembled, her face full of disbelief.
Derek Evans hurriedly explained: âMr. Sullvian, Rose is being wronged. Mag just said that for her own sake. The ones who should leave are not them. They are too gentle and kindheartedâŠâ
âXaviera went to great lengths to drive them away. Itâs all her fault, and it has nothing to do with Rose and her daughter!â
Derek Evansâ explanation became increasingly far-fetched, and everyone looked at him with suspicion.
Xaviera crossed her arms, âIs that really what dad thinks? So thatâs how I appear in your eyes!â
âRebellious girl! You dare to fabricate the truth! Shut up and go back home!â
Derek Evans was still yelling, but before he could finish, Albert Sullivan interrupted him.
âMr. Evans, I think itâs necessary to tell you that I provided the video to Xaviera. â
Derek Evans suddenly choked, his face turning ashen.
He was completely shocked, trembling all over, as if he had been struck by lightning.
âMr. Sullvian, you⊠itâs impossibleâŠâ
âWhat? You mean Iâm lying?â Albert Sullivan raised his eyebrows: âMr. Evans, if you donât believe me, we can call the police. I have faith that someone can prove the video is real.â
âImpossible! This⊠must be fakeâŠâ Derek Evansâs mouth twitched, and he stuttered: âRose is gentle and kind-hearted. She, sheâŠâ
âSo Dad means he doesnât believe Mr. Sullivan? If it werenât for Mr. Caleb Mamet and his friends showing up, my life would have been ruined. You didnât say a word for me but always tried to exonerate Rose. Are you involved in this scheme too? Trying to kill your own daughter?â
Each word Xaviera said was striking. Derek Evansâ face grew whiter and whiter as he listened.
He never thought Xaviera could say such words. Immediately, he became enraged and stamped his foot: âScoundrel! Shut up! How dare you try to slander me? You and your dead mother had no regard for human feelings!â Xavieraâs eyes turned cold.
Derek Evans, anger taking over, spoke without thinking: âLet the matter rest here. Donât pursue it any further, or elseâŠâ
âIs Mr. Evans threatening me?â Albert Sullivanâs eyes were deep and mysterious.
Derek Evans suddenly choked and swallowed the words in his mouth. The next second, a cold weapon appeared above his head, the muzzle pressed against his forehead.
The crowd screamed in terror, scattering in every direction.
Derek Evans was frightened, cold sweat dripping: âMr., Mr. SullvianâŠâ
âMr. Evans, would you like to repeat what you just said?â Albert Sullivanâs voice was deep and low..
