“Okay, then call the police. I want to see whether the police will arrest me for sleeping with my fiancée.”
Oliver had no fear, and he looked at Wanda with a half-smile. “Besides, even though the Hadfield. Family agreed to cancel the engagement before, we never announced it to the public. So, as long as I don’t admit it, you will always be my fiancée. Moreover, what evidence do you have to prove that I raped you? I can also say that you seduced me.”
Hearing these extremely shameless words, Wanda almost vomited blood from anger. How could there be such a disgusting man in this world?
At the Muller Residence, when Horace found out what happened on the Internet, he was shocked and quickly called Wanda to come back. Later, Wanda came back with a sour expression. She walked into the living room and saw her grandfather sitting there. At that moment, she felt so aggrieved that she almost burst into tears. On the contrary, Horace didn’t notice her emotions because he was preoccupied with the news on the Internet.
“Wanda, you’re back. Come and sit here.” He waved to Wanda. Wanda took a deep breath, nodded, and walked over. After sitting down, Horace hurriedly began to ask about the things on the Internet.
“You and Oliver… Did you two really do it?”
“…” Wanda didn’t know how to answer, she fell silent after saying just one word. But her hands,
which were hanging by her sides, were
clenched into fists.
Horace didn’t notice her oddness. Instead, he thought she was shy and said with a smile, “If you are embarrassed to say it, just nod your head, so that I understand and can help you arrange your marriage with Oliver.”
“I don’t want to marry him!” All of a sudden, Wanda refused fervently. Horace was stunned. “Why don’t you want to marry him?”
Wanda pursed her lips tightly as her fingernails dug hard into her palms. Her eyes felt hot as tears brimmed in them. She raised her head to resist the urge to cry and hold back her tears.
“Grandpa, you misunderstood. This matter only happened because I was drunk last night.”
She didn’t tell him the truth in the end. If she said that she was raped by Oliver, he would definitely not be able to accept it, and might even end up in the hospital because of it. She couldn’t bear to do that to him.
Horace didn’t know the truth, so he looked at Wanda in surprise. After all, the friendship between the two families had soured after what happened before. It was surprising that Wanda and Oliver could still have a drink together.
“Are you two reconciled?” Facing Grandpa’s curious gaze, Wanda gritted her teeth. “No, it’s impossible for us to reconcile in this life!”
At this moment, Horace finally discovered some peculiarity with the matter. “Wanda, are you hiding something from me?”
Wanda froze. She knew that her emotions just now were too obvious, which made her grandfather suspicious. After taking a deep breath, she said calmly, “Grandpa, don’t think too much about it. As for this matter, don’t worry about it. We mustn’t make rash decisions about things like marriage.”
“How could I not make a decision? The matter between you and Oliver is raging on the Internet now. Do you want to lose your reputation? Do you want to ruin the reputation of the Muller Family?” Horace stared at Wanda while pretending to be angry.
Wanda’s mind was a mess. At this time, she wished she could tear Oliver into pieces. How could she ever marry him?
“Grandpa, you love me the most. Let me think about it, okay?” She suppressed the hatred in her heart, hugged Horace’s arm, and pleaded with him. In the end, Horace had no choice but to agree.
However, the news online was still trending. Even the business world in Southend was shocked by it. After all, the Hadfield Family and the Muller Family were not insignificant families. The marriage between the two would form a strong alliance, which would likely change the current form of the business world in Southend.
Tessa and Nicholas also saw the news on the Internet early in the morning.
“What a sudden and fast development between Miss Muller and Mr. Hadfield.” Tessa was a little surprised. She originally thought that even if Wanda came to her senses, she would lie low for a while. Tessa didn’t expect good news to come so soon.
