Looking at Bettany's expression, Blair inexplicably felt anxious.
Can I have once again done something with good intentions that ended up causing trouble?
But how can it be? Winona would not do anything as extreme as murder or arson.
At most, it was just a romantic entanglement. There was no need to make such a big fuss about it.
Compared to Blair, Helen was truly panicked.
When Bettany came out, she wanted to run away immediately.
She knew what Winona had done before and did not dare to continue this entanglement. It would be like exposing herself.
"Let's go, let's go!" Helen pleaded as she pulled Blair's arm. "Today is a happy wedding day for the Crawford family. Let's not talk about it anymore. Let it go, let it go!"
Blair looked at her with fear, restraint, and anxiety, feeling even more sorry for her.
The ghost on his head shook its head continuously and said, "No, we can't just leave like this."
"It's already difficult enough for the old lady to overcome many difficulties to see his granddaughter. Why does the Crawford family have to bully an old lady like her?"
"If we leave here today, she will return and wipe her tears alone."
Blair became even more determined and held Helen's hand, insisting, "Don't be afraid, old lady! We just need to discuss it, and I'll help you."
Today was a good opportunity.
The way the Crawford family treated Helen was probably not a recent issue.
With many people present today, perhaps they could persuade the Crawford family to help the elderly solve their future difficulties.
Helen was almost at her wits' end. She was so pleased with Blair's help just now, but now she hated him so much that she wanted to push him into the sewer.
Bettany seemed to see through Blair's intentions and sneered, "Mr. Blair, are you planning to fight for some rights for Helen in front of so many people? You claim to be kind but use moral coercion and public opinion to pressure my family."
"You're not that noble either."
Bettany was straight. These words initially took Blair aback. He felt the urge to argue back but struggled to find the right words to express himself.
Yes, he was also using moral coercion.
Blair was left speechless as Bettany's words struck him like a crushing blow, hitting him deeply in the heart and making him doubt himself.
Bettany continued, "I know that the outsiders have always been curious about Liam's divorce!"
When Winona was arrested, Bettany did not mention that Winona had killed someone to protect Hannah.
Adults are considerate and won't speak recklessly, but what about children?
