All eyes were on Sebastian. Sebastian looked at the Payne sisters, as well as their parents, with a sharp gaze. The Payne sisters were so shocked that they were frozen in place. At that very moment, the person who was least able to believe this truth was Lucius. "What did y-you say? Vireo is my son. I had raised him since he was a baby. How could he be the child of your family?"
"Dad! This is the director of the Ford Group! " Chloe scolded her father.
No matter how slow she was to respond and understand the situation, Chloe also knew that this director of the Ford Group was formidable. After she scolded her father, she looked at her brother, Vireo. " Vireo, what's going on? The person in charge of the hospital told us that the director of the Ford Group is your friend. We're very happy for you that you're able to make such a friend. But, your friend, Mister Ford, seemed to have some misunderstandings about us. Vireo, did you tell Mister Ford that we're your family, these are your biological parents, and the three of us are your biological sisters?"
Chloe had always been impatient. Without waiting for her brother to have any response at all, she looked at Sebastian again. "Mister Ford, I have seen you. The man at my brother’s house the day before yesterday was you. I know. You must have admired my brother's skills as a doctor very much, so you had taken him as your brother. My brother is like that. He had always been very loved by others. He used t o be like that back in the county as well. However, Mister Ford, there's one thing that you may not know. The group of people who were together as guests with you at my brother's house that day are criminals. Mister Ford, shouldn't y-you first make sense of the situation?"
What Chloe had said truly made Sabrina, who was behind her, so angry that she laughed. "Miss Payne, you're truly very confident, and also very bold."
Chloe turned around to look at Sabrina. Her tone was still a little aggressive. "Woman! You’re already on the brink of dying, and you're still arguing? The police are here, and Mister Ford is also here. Even if we don’t report you to the police, it would be impossible for all of you to escape today! What else do you have to argue! Do all of you want to make my brother miserable?"
Sabrina shook her head. "Miss Payne, Before we are deemed as criminals by the police, I have to tell you something!"
"I have no interest in what you have to say!"
"The director, Mister Ford, that you speak o f is my husband!" Sabrina said slowly.
"What?" Chloe asked.
She thought that she had heard it wrong, so she subconsciously cleaned her ears. Her ears were clean and unobstructed, and she heard it right. Sabrina came to Sebastian and took her husband’s arm. After that, she shrugged her shoulders and looked at Chloe very innocently. "This Mister Ford is my husband."
"Oh..." Chloe continuously took a few steps back. Her face suddenly became as white a s a sheet. Ashnah and Abigail, who were behind her, held onto Chloe to support her.
"Chloe, what's going on?" Ashnah's voice was already trembling as she spoke. "Chloe, we. .are we in trouble? Chloe, I am a little scared...” Abigail was usually the most domineering and spoiled, but she was the timidest. Whenever they encountered any trouble, she always was the best at running away. At that moment, Abigail was so frightened that her lips turned blue. "I've got n-nothing to do with this."
Chloe and Ashnah were so pissed that they glared at Abigail at the same time. No matter how much they glared at Abigail, there was absolutely nothing the Payne family was able to do at all at that moment. Chloe turned around and looked at his parents. After all, they were also Vireo's parents. The sisters knew that since Vireo had such a good relationship with Mister Ford, he would then be able to put in a good word for the Payne family. However, at that moment, their parents were also frozen in place. Like the Payne sisters, they were also incredibly afraid. They were afraid of none other than the fact that the Payne sisters had taken the Ford Group’s director's wife as a criminal. What should they do?
