Chapter 274 Something Bad Happened
Elizabeth was silent.
At this moment, she was stunned, even wondering if someone else would come in a moment.
Would Alexander come?
It was just like six years ago when Marcus from the Windsor Family invited her to The Windsor Manor, and the entire upper-class circle collectively suppressed her.
But back then, it was all elders, and this time it was young people.
Back then, everyone was condemning her.
But now, Owen was here to save her.
Seeing Elizabeth not speaking, Owen once again expressed to her, "Elizabeth, whatever Samuel could do back then, I can do too. Not only that, I can give my life for you. I know you don't believe me, so I will show you. We will leave right now, pick up your daughter from kindergarten, and take the earliest flight out of here, anywhere, even abroad."
Elizabeth remained silent.
"Owen!" A shout from behind nearly shattered the ceiling of the banquet hall.
All the reporters were stunned by the shout.
At this moment, Elodie was crying uncontrollably, glaring at Owen and Elizabeth with gritted teeth. Her face was twisted and terrifying.
"Owen, fuck! I curse you to die a horrible death! Bastard! You are my fiancé! For six years, you've been flirting with Elizabeth behind my back. And now I'm right here, Owen, do you think I'm dead?"
After cursing Owen, Elodie turned to curse Elizabeth, "And you, Elizabeth! You damn bitch! Others may not know you, but I know all about you! Six years ago, all the dirty things you did, I'll expose them all! The first time you met Simon, you asked him for money! You sneaked into The Windsor Manor in a hotel uniform trying to seduce rich men! You wore one cheap dress after another on the yacht, doing God knows what! You did dirty things with that eighty-year-old man Wesley! Others may not know, but I know it all too well! You bitch! You're a hundred times worse than a whore!"
Elodie's hysterical rant left her foaming at the mouth, but she still wasn't satisfied.
Previously, she had kept quiet because she felt she had no standing among this group of socialites, so she was protecting herself. But now, she couldn't care less.
It made Elodie so jealous that her heart bled seeing Owen willing to risk his life to protect Elizabeth.
Her tears seemed to be mixed with blood.
She had been engaged to Owen for six years!
In those six years, Elodie had never minded that the Tudor Family had fallen from grace in Sunwillow City, nor did she mind that Owen was idle and didn't know how to do business, just wanting the status of being the wife of an upper-class noble in Sunwillow City.
Her original plan and goal were to marry Alexander!
She later chose Owen as a last resort.
She didn't look down on Owen, which was already a big favor to him.
But Owen, in those six years, had never shown Elodie any affection!
A man who was always surrounded by women had never had a sexual relationship with Elodie. Elodie thought it might be because Owen had seen too many beautiful women and experienced all types, so he wasn't interested in her.
But that was fine; if Owen wasn't interested in her, he would be even less interested in other women.
However, seeing Owen's deep affection for Elizabeth today drove Elodie mad.
She took a step forward, raising her sharp nails to scratch Elizabeth's face and cursing, "Elizabeth! You damn bitch! If I don't ruin your face today, I'm Elodie! I'll make you pay for seducing my fiancé! I'll strip you naked today!"
Elodie no longer cared about her socialite image.
Her well-manicured nails were about to scratch Elizabeth's face.
However, Owen was faster, lifting his foot and ruthlessly kicking Elodie away.
Elodie let out a wail as she was kicked to the ground.
Owen glared at the fallen Elodie and said coldly, "There are hardly women as vicious as you in this world! What right do you have to compare yourself to Elizabeth? Elodie! Since you have no shame, I won't spare your feelings either. Everyone here, listen up. My engagement to Elodie is fake. I may have fallen from grace, but I never intended to marry Elodie!"
He continued, "You begged me to give you a title, just to let the world know you are my wife. We would never register our marriage; it was just a mutually beneficial arrangement! We had an agreement, and we signed a contract privately. But you, Elodie, are here to make things difficult for Elizabeth! Tell me, Elodie, who are you to me? What right do you have?"
After Owen's outburst, there was a wave of murmurs inside and outside the hall.
Especially the reporters outside felt that today's event was worth attending; the news was incredibly explosive.
Inside the hall, people looked at Elodie with disdain.
Elodie couldn't care less anymore, clinging to Owen's leg and asking, "Mr. Tudor, how am I worse than Elizabeth!"
Owen sneered disdainfully, "Can you compare to her? Six years ago, Elizabeth, pregnant, raised her hand to block two knives for me! If it weren't for her, I would have been dead! How can you compare to her! In my heart, Elizabeth is my one true love for life! And you, you are nothing! Get lost!"
Owen shook off his leg in disgust and then wrapped his arm around Elizabeth, heading out.
Daniel was stunned, but he thought that as long as someone was helping Elizabeth, it was a good thing, so he said nothing.
Another man, not knowing his place, suddenly spoke up, "I..."
This man thought he could do anything because his backer was Molly.
But before he could finish, Owen kicked him hard.
Owen kicked this man much harder than he had kicked Elodie.
The man was kicked fifteen feet away, straight to the door.
Owen shouted, "Get lost!"
The man lay on the ground, unable to react for a long time. Before he could get up, Owen shouted again, "Cut off this reckless man's hands and feet and throw him into the sea to feed the fish! I want everyone to see the consequences of bullying Elizabeth!"
Everyone present was silent, as well as the reporters.
Owen said word by word, "That's right! Alexander is the most noble man in Sunwillow City! But don't forget, I am not afraid of death, so why would I care about your lives!"
Hearing this, even Molly was stunned.
Her intuition told her that today's banquet, set up specifically for Elizabeth, was going to backfire.
