His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 187: Schemes and A Backup Plan 

Charles was angry and dumbfounded.It was clear that he was the victim.

Melody already admitted that she hit him, it was only right to punish her.

But Charles didn't understand why these people were not doing anything.He clenched his fists and was about to yell again.

When Elizabeth saw what Charles was about to do, she quickly grabbed Charles’ sleeves secretly, making him stop.

Charles looked at her and pulled his arm away from Elizabeth.He looked at Gwendolyn, expecting her to punish Melody.

Gwendolyn was calm, instead, she looked at Melody and asked in a stern voice, "You admit that you hit Charles even though he didn't do anything to offend you? Isn't that too harsh considering he's your brother? Why would you do that?"

Gwendolyn stared at Melody coldly as if she was nothing but a pest in her eyes.

"Alas, who can blame you? You grew up in the countryside with no one to teach you manners and the rules of the elite.You only came back recently because your Grandpa missed you.I heard that in order to compensate you for all these years, he gave you a big share of the company and his inheritance." Melody remained silent as she stared blankly at the old lady.

Meanwhile, Gwendolyn continued to speak.

"I know that your Grandpa adores you but the rest of the Sullivan family also welcomed you with open arms, and this is how you repay us?" Gwendolyn said, accusingly at Melody.

Melody fought the urge to roll her eyes at the old lady's ridiculous comments.

They thought just because Melody grew up in the countryside, she didn't know any manners or proper etiquette.

They thought that she didn't know how the world worked in the city, that was why they were all confident in slandering her.

When Sarah heard her grandmother's words, she couldn't help but speak up, "Grandma, please..."

When Elizabeth heard her, she immediately gave Sarah a cold and stern glance, prompting the latter to stop talking.

"Sarah, I heard you haven't been staying in the main house for the past two years.Have you forgotten the rules after being out for two years?"

Sarah's body stiffened and all the colors in her face immediately drained out.She never thought that her maternal grandmother would tell everyone that she was driven out of the Sullivan family.

Sarah didn't know what to say nor did she dare to move.She bit her lip and lowered her head in shame.
