Chapter 1155 Protecting Each Other
Ava held Sunny as she got into the car and placed him in the car seat.
Just as she closed the back door, Bishop ran over. "Ava."
"Bishop, I told you to rest at home. Why did you come over? You're not fully recovered yet."
"It's okay, I'm feeling much better. Let me drive." He was worried about Ava's emotional state; she wasn't in the right condition to drive.
Ava felt a bit dizzy herself, so she nodded and sat in the passenger seat.
Bishop opened the door, sat in the driver's seat, and started the engine.
William and Eason caught up, intending to see Ava off, but they watched helplessly as Bishop and Ava drove away together, both fuming with anger.
"Damn it!"
Seeing William's gritted teeth, Eason sneered, "Ava divorced you, didn't she? Look at you, all anxious, can't even keep your own wife."
William's brow furrowed as he rushed forward and grabbed Eason by the collar. "What did you say?"
"Didn't you hear me? I'll say it again: you're useless, can't even keep your wife."
William, furious, clenched his fist to punch him, but just then, a roar came, "Stop!"
George stormed over, immediately pulling William away and then shielding Eason behind him.
"William, what are you doing? How dare you try to hit Eason!"
George's protective stance towards Eason was like a father shielding his son, his tone and demeanor completely unlike someone dealing with a recent acquaintance.
"So what if I hit him?" William said coldly. "Why are you protecting him so much? Is he your son?"
"You!" George's face turned ugly as he stepped forward and grabbed William by the collar. "Don't talk nonsense. My mom just got buried, and you want to start a fight here? Who let you come? You're just an outsider. Do you even have the right to be here?"
George forcefully pushed William away.
William didn't fight back and took a few steps back.
"George, what are you doing?" Mia ran over and quickly supported William. "William, are you okay?"
Hearing her voice, Mia turned her head, still looking worried. He frowned slightly, finding Mia's behavior odd. He pulled his hand back and replied, "I'm fine."
George was puzzled by Mia's protective stance towards William.
Before he could speak, Mia angrily said, "George, why did you hit him?"
"He was bullying Eason first!" George pointed at William and continued, "Why are you protecting him?"
"And you? Why are you protecting him?" Mia retorted.
"He's my adopted son."
"Uncle George, I'm fine. Sorry for causing trouble. I'll leave now," Eason said, looking innocent.
William sneered, "So he's your adopted son. No wonder you're so protective of him. He really knows how to please people."
"I will protect him! William, if you dare bully Eason again, I won't be polite to you!"
"George, don't think you can touch William," Mia warned. "Or I won't be polite to you either!"
Both of them were protecting their own.
"Mia, do you know what you're saying? He's William. Why are you protecting him?"
To Mia, William was just an outsider. He didn't understand why Mia was so protective of him.
"He's my boyfriend's nephew. It's normal for me to protect him. Didn't you also adopt a son?"
"Mia, I..."
George wanted to say something, but Mia impatiently interrupted him, "Enough, stop talking."
Mia turned to William and said, "You should go back."
William didn't want to stay any longer. He straightened his black suit, glared at Eason, and then turned and left.
