His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 2876

Amidst the noise, someone suddenly said in a low voice, "Did you notice that Lord Witch's expression was a bit odd? She seemed a bit surprised when she saw the herbs just now."

"I saw it too. It flashed through so quickly."

"Why was she surprised? Is there any inside story?"

"No way. Why didn't I notice anything?"

"That's because you didn't pay attention. She really paused for a moment. Think about it. How could an expert like her be unable to control his or her expression? There must be something that startled her."

"Is it related to Fade?"

"Stop guessing blindly. They are family. What could there possibly be?"

Fade also noticed the flash of surprise from Lord Witch. His heart jolted and he became more vigilant, but he did not say anything. He cupped his hands and was ready to go back to his seat.

However, just then, Vandell suddenly stepped forward, stared at him, and said in a low voice, "Wait a minute!"

"Me?" Fade looked at him with a puzzled look.

Vandell frowned deeply and said, "Fade, out of everything that you can pocket, you chose to pocket something Lord Witch urgently needs. Do you still have any conscience in you?"

"What did you say?" Fade's face sank.

Lord Witch coughed and said to Vandell, "Back down. Don't talk nonsense."

He insisted and cupped his hands at Lord Witch. "Master, I can obey you on other things, but not this one."

Then, he stared at Fade with a face full of righteous indignation. "Fade, do you still want to pretend you don't understand what I just said?" "What do you mean?" Fade asked in a deep voice.

Yandell looked at the crowd and immediately said, "Fade, do you want me to make your scandal public?"

"Lord Witch knows that you are Miss Xie's son-in-law and can be considered one of us. Coupled with what you've done in Mi covia some time ago, she's worried that the pressure on you will be too great. Hence, she wanted to make you famous and lessen the burden."

"Yesterday, Lord Witch handed over a divine soul core to you. She wanted you to present it at today's birthday banquet to make a name for yourself."

"But what have you done? You actually pocketed the divine soul core to yourself?"

"Do you still have a bit of conscience? That's something that Lord Witch needs for treatments. How dare you keep it for yourself!"

After hearing this, Fade understood Yandell's scheme. He wanted to slander Fade for pocketing the divine soul treasure and use the public to force him to hand over the core. If he was unwilling, they would have the reason to take action justifiably.

Thinking through this, Fade's eyes darkened, and he said coldly, "Nonsense. I have no idea what you are talking about at all."

"Fade, do you really still want to quibble at this point?" Vandell shouted.

At this time, Lord Witch waved her hand, trying to clear the situation. "Vandell, stop it. You must be mistaken. Fade indeed prepared herbs, not the core."

That sounded like Lord Witch was speaking for Fade, but from another perspective, it confirmed the fact that she wanted to help him lessen the pressure.

For a moment, the guests on the scene were all causing a stir.

"I was right. There really is a backstory. Do you see it?"

"As I said, that herbal medicine is clearly not enough to be the finale. Only divine soul treasures can make it. It is as expected." "Then, what's Fade thinking? Lord Witch is thoughtful enough to help him, but he's keeping it to himself. He must be blinded by greed!"

"He repays kindness with ingratitude. He deserves to die."

"If it were me, I wouldn't even continue the nonsense and kill him already."
