The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 717

William was always the epitome of charm, never once losing his temper in public. Even when he was cornered into a marriage he didn't want, not once did he show a shadow of anger.

As soon as she heard that, Carla realized she had spoken out of line and quickly tried to backpedal, "William, I didn’t mean it that way..."

Carla felt that it was all Brittany's fault. If Brittany hadn't shown up, Carla wouldn't have said something so wrong. She wouldn’t have said something that could have potentially upset William.

'Brittany, why can't she just vanish!' Carla thought bitterly.

William brushed off her hand, "Carla, if you want to continue with our marriage, stop making a scene. If not, we can get a divorce. I can assist with the police investigation. I don’t care about my reputation."

Carla turned pale as a ghost.

William hadn’t intended to drag Brittany into such a mess. He apologized to Brittany and quickly left the scene.

"Brittany, I’m warning you, stop seducing William!" Carla yelled before scurrying after William, "William, wait for me. I’m sorry, don’t go..."

The group of women watched the spectacle with a strange look in their eyes.

Wasn't it William who was supposed to be the one begging Carla?

Why was Carla acting so desperate, as if she was afraid of a divorce?

Could it be that the seemingly refined William was a smooth operator?

"Carla has left. Why are you still here?" Hannah asked, arriving late.

"We’re leaving now." Giving each other a look, the women finally decided to leave.

The guests didn’t seem to mind the small incident and quickly moved on. The party continued as normal, with the music setting the mood.

Once everyone had left, Hannah turned to Brittany before asking, "Did Carla give you a hard time?"

Brittany sighed, "Not really a hard time. It was just a bit annoying."

She decided that she needed to limit her contact with William. They were just friends, but Carla's constant suspicion and tantrums were causing unnecessary trouble.

The Chester family arrived, and Brittany went over to greet them with Hannah.

"Bri."
