His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 3233

"At this moment, Rayyan could not help but have doubts, and he considered retreating.

After all, his intention was to please the Loh family and get closer to them.

However, if he got himself involved in the struggle between the two big families because of the Gu family, things would be complicated. Not only would he not be able to gain any benefits, he might even get into trouble.

With that, he hesitated for a while and decided to ask his men to retreat.

However, at this time, a group of hunters rushed towards them.

Hadrian narrowed his eyes and noticed that they were Hanker and the others. He immediately waved his hand and greeted them, "Mr. Hanker, this way."

The group of men came over with serious expressions, and they all remained silent as they looked at Fade.

Hadrian thought their responses were strange.

Thus, he could not help but ask, "Mr. Hanker, what's wrong? Why are you all looking so upset? Haven't you enjoyed yourselves?"

Hanker did not answer. Instead, he looked at Fade and said in a low voice, "Mr. Chen, I have a question for you. Would you please tell me the truth?"

Fade set down the pastries and looked at him. Then, he asked, "What is it, Mr. Hanker?"

Hanker took a deep breath and uttered, "I want to know who you are and why you’re here in South Van City."

Fade's expression darkened upon hearing the question, and he frowned.

Meanwhile, Yolanda muttered in dissatisfaction, "Mr. Hanker, why are you asking this? Didn't Brother Chen already say that he's a relative of the Gu family and that he came to South Van City to look for them?"

Hadrian also sensed that something was amiss. He looked at Hanker and asked, "Hanker, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

Hanker still did not answer their questions. He merely stared at Fade and asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Chen, are you really a relative of the Gu family?"

Fade's brows furrowed into a tight frown. When he told Hanker that he was a relative of the Gu family, he had not bothered to explain much to him for the sake of convenience.

However, now, judging by his questions. Hanker must have found out something.

After pausing for a moment, Fade explained, "Mr. Hanker, I do know the Gu family. I came to South Van City to find the Gu family for some matters."

He sucked in a deep breath, then continued, "Why do you ask these questions?"

Hanker remained silent.

Upon seeing this, Hadrian urged, "Hanker, what happened? Tell me!"

"Mr. Hanker, Brother Chen's our lifesaver. Don' t you think you' re being too rude?" Yolanda blurted out.

Hanker shook his head in response. His expression seemed somber as if he was thinking about something.

At this moment, the sound of a group of people talking and discussing came from nearby.

"He's over there. Yes, it's him!"

Everyone was distracted by the noises, and they immediately looked over the source of the sound.

Then, they saw a group of uniformed guards coming over with stern looks on their faces.

A young man dressed like a hunter stood among the guards. He was Lemont of the beast hunting team.

Hadrian's expression darkened when he saw the group of men approaching them. He looked at Hanker and asked, "Hanker, what's going on? Why are the City Guards here? What is Lemont doing?"

Hanker sighed and replied, "You'll know everything when they're here."

Under Lemont's lead, the City Guards came over and instantly surrounded Fade and the others.

"Lemont, what are you doing?" Yolanda looked at him unhappily.

Lemont looked back at her and said, "You'll know soon, Yolanda. This guy is not a hero at all. In fact, he's a liar."

Yolanda glared at him and bellowed in fury, "Lemont, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Lemont's lips parted as if he was about to explain something to her.

However, at this moment, a middle-aged man in armor standing among the City Guards boomed, "Stop wasting our time."

Lemont jolted in shock, then immediately pointed at Fade and said to the middle-aged man, "Mr. Gu, this man's the liar whom I mentioned. He claims that he's Fade Chen, a relative of the Gu family. He told us that he came to South Yan City to look for a relative." The middle-aged man's eyes darkened. He looked at Fade and questioned, "Are you a relative of the Gu family?"

"I do know the Gu family," Fade replied.

"Really? Then why don’t I know you?" The man retorted.

Fade frowned as he thought about how to explain everything to him.

At this moment, Lemont became agitated as he spoke. "Stop pretending, Fade. Let me tell you, this man right here is Lingo Gu, the captain of the City Guards, and he’s from the Gu family."

"You claim that you're a family member of the Gu family, and you said that you know the Gu family. However, you don't even know Mr. Gu, and Mr. Gu also said that he doesn't know you."

"Do you plan to keep lying to us?"

Lingo's expression darkened, and he snapped, "Tell me the truth, kid. Who are you? What's your intention?"

At that instant, more than a dozen City Guards under Lingo' s lead shifted their positions and surrounded Fade.

He glanced at them. These City Guards were stronger than the guards in Myriad Treasures Hall. Almost all of their martial arts were at Stage 8 of the Physical Refine Realm, which was considered powerful.

On the other hand, Lingo was even stronger than Rayyan, as he had reached Stage 6 of the Soul Refine Realm.

For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene became tense.

Upon seeing this, Fade said, "I’m indeed not a relative of the Gu family, but I do know the Gu family's people. I came here for some matters. Besides, I mean no harm."

"No harm? Do you think we'll believe what you're saying now?” Lemont sneered. "Mr. Gu, he just admitted that he's lying. Hurry up and arrest him!"

Instantly, the City Guards began moving again.

This time, Yolanda could no longer stand it anymore. She stepped up and said furiously, "Lemont, don' t you have a conscience? Brother Chen is our savior. If it wasn't for him, we would’ve died in the forest."

"However, you returned his kindness with ingratitude by treating him like this!"

Lemont was angry and anxious, and he tried to explain, "Yolanda, he's just a liar. I believe he must have had bad intentions when he saved us. I even suspect that he's the one who deliberately arranged that incident to sneak into South Yan City."

"Not everyone is as despicable as you, Lemont! No matter what, I believe in Brother Chen!" Yolanda was determined as she stood beside Fade.

Lemont gritted his teeth when he heard her response. He looked so miserable as if he was about to burst into tears.

"Yolanda, I’m doing this for your own good and for everyone's sake. Can't you understand me?" He asked emotionally.

However, she answered coldly, "Stop finding excuses and acting like you're all high and mighty, Lemmont. Don't think that I don't know you're just jealous of Brother Chen."

"I won't marry someone like you. Give up!"

Yolanda's words hit Lemont like a clap of thunder, making him stumble and almost fall to the ground."
