The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 574

Initially, Brook wanted to fix a date for their wedding since all of them were here. Suddenly, a string of hasty knocks on the door rang out.

A servant rushed into the study and reported nervously after he opened the door, "Master, miss, you have to come downstairs. Ms. Shelby stabbed Ms. Doyle with a knife."

The news came like a bombshell and all of them were stunned.

It took the three of them a very long while to digest what the servant had said. Lara was the first to come around to her senses and said, "My master stabbed someone? What the hell happened?"

After that, she stormed downstairs.

Seth's heart jolted and he hastily followed after her.

By the time both of them reached downstairs, Julian and Susan were already gone, and there was only a crowd of guests engaged with each other in a heated discussion in the living hall.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I always heard that a jealous woman is the most dangerous creature in the world. Susan looks so gentle and weak, I didn't expect her to commit such a ruthless deed. There is so much blood. I assume the baby is most likely gone."

"I guess so. Tsk, tsk, tsk, the baby hasn't even developed, and yet she did it with a heart of stone. I now see why Julian chooses Willa over her."

"Who would want a woman like this?" "General Jenner seems to have a thing for

her though.

"That is because she is from the Wrights.”

What the hell are they talking about?’

Lara forced down her anger. However, the rage in her eyes grew even more intense after the servant filled her in on the situation.

She cursed herself inwardly for failing her duty as an apprentice as she did not stay at her master's side when she was bullied by other people.

Right now, she wanted to stop them talking about her master. After all, this was the least she could do for her master for not being able to stay by her side when she needed her the most.

Lara stormed angrily towards the crowd and said coldly, "If my master said she didn't do it, then she didn’t do it. You all only know how to talk behind other people's backs. Would you be willing to pay the price if it's later proved that you’re spreading rumors?"

Lara looked furious and nobody talked for a moment.

"Hmph! You guys are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites who talk about people behind their backs. You, you, you, you, all of you, get out of my house right now. And you are not welcome to any of the Quintons' banquets anymore!" Lara pointed at the few people who talked the loudest just now.

An awkward expression crept onto their faces.

Some of them even tried to defend themselves. "I didn't say anything wrong..."

"Alright, shut up. Chop-chop and get out of my house. This is my house, and if I want you to get out, you have to get out," Lara barked straightly.

Those people who she pointed to became angry.

"Ms. Quinton, does your father know what you are doing right now? Do you think he will allow you to chase us out of your house without his permission?" somebody asked.

"What Lara said is what I said," Brook interrupted expressionlessly, "From today onward, the Quintons will no longer be doing any business with all of you."

All of the people's expressions changed. The Quintons’ banquet was very famous in Skyking City. They would miss a lot of business opportunities if they were permanently prevented from attending the Quintons' banquet.

However, they did not dare to stay long when they looked at Brook and Lara’s faces.

Those people who discussed Susan the loudest had no other choice but to leave the banquet.

After they left, the rest of the people had no mood to continue the banquet anymore. The hall very soon fell silent.

'Willa is pregnant? Julian reprimanded Susan and Chessie in front of the public?'

When Seth thought about what the servant had said, he did not believe it at all.

After all, he was one of the few who knew the story. There was no way Julian would impregnate Willa.

This is impossible. There must be a misunderstanding.’

Seth decided to put aside the feud between him and Lara and hastily went to look for
