Free Web NovelChapter 249: Chapter 249: You Have Offended My Wife
The man’s handsome figure came into view as he stood at the corner of the corridor, gazing at her with a burning intensity, as if he had a thousand words to say.
Cecilia Vaughn pressed her lips together, tasting a faint bitterness in her mouth.
No matter where Adrian Law stood, he always seemed to shine, too exceptional—countless women in the world admired his luxurious status, his handsome appearance. Perhaps she was no exception to this commonness, but what Cecilia Vaughn loved most was his sincere heart towards her.
Or perhaps, the heart she believed to be sincere.
If a relationship is destined to be entangled with deceit and hypocrisy, Cecilia Vaughn wondered if such a relationship could be considered genuine?
...
Cecilia Vaughn sighed silently; for the first time, she was so timid and suddenly didn’t want to face those matters.
Her mind hadn’t decided what to do yet, but her body reacted honestly, choosing a direction opposite to Adrian Law.
At the very least, she really didn’t want to see him now, pretentious or not, she was ultimately just an ordinary woman.
"Cecilia..."
Adrian Law suddenly gave chase, but Cecilia Vaughn’s steps paused only for a moment before she walked even faster.
At that moment, two women coming out of the restroom heard Adrian Law’s voice and suddenly stepped out.
Fiona Vaughn looked at Adrian Law with surprise and joy, purposefully blocking his way.
"Mr. Law, so you’re here too. What a coincidence!"
Chloe Alden, who had initially mistaken Adrian Law for a pretty boy, had a somewhat inexplicable affection for him. Now that she knew he was the eldest son of the Law Family, she couldn’t help but blush even more.
"Mr. Law, I’m the only daughter of the Alden Family, Chloe Alden. Do you remember me?"
As she spoke, Chloe Alden looked up at Adrian Law with infatuated eyes, desperately wanting to show off her most charming side.
——No matter what others say about Adrian Law being aloof, this man is truly the ultimate choice among the opposite sex. How could someone like Cecilia Vaughn get him!
...
"Get out of the way!"
Adrian Law looked disdainfully at the coquettish Chloe Alden and Fiona Vaughn. If it weren’t for his aversion to touching, he would have pushed these two women away already.
But he saw that Cecilia Vaughn’s figure had already disappeared around the corner.
Cecilia, she... really just left him without hesitation...
This treatment that he had never experienced before made Adrian Law feel as if his heart was branded, sparks flying, painfully real.
Fiona Vaughn didn’t miss the flash of pain in Adrian Law’s eyes; she remembered Rosalind White had returned to the country today and suddenly covered her mouth, smiling with some sadness and melancholy.
"Mr. Law, what’s wrong with my sister today? It’s clearly a good thing that Miss White, your lifesaver, returned. I only asked a few more questions with Chloe, and my sister got angry..."
Upon hearing Fiona Vaughn’s words, Adrian Law’s eyes darkened, narrowing like a hawk’s.
"What did you say?"
Chloe Alden thought Adrian Law was upset about Cecilia Vaughn’s pettiness towards Rosalind White. After all, she had heard that Rosalind White was treated like a princess in the Law Family. Such a treasured person, and Cecilia Vaughn still carried her spoiled young lady’s temper; it must have disappointed Adrian Law, right?
"Mr. Law, you don’t know, earlier that shameless Cecilia Vaugh..."
Chloe Alden abruptly changed her words when she saw Adrian Law’s gaze was sharper than an icy lance.
"That Cecilia Vaughn woman, not only was she angry with us, but she also scolded us like a shrew. I say, marrying such an unreasonable woman is really a disgrace to you, Mr. Law..."
Adrian Law stood tall and elegant, his aura seemingly condensed into frost, making Fiona Vaughn and Chloe Alden shiver simultaneously.
Yet this scene, to Chloe Alden’s delight, fell into her heart!
——See, which man would like a woman who doesn’t have proper decorum!
Adrian Law must be wishing he could divorce such a disgraceful shrew!
...
As Chloe Alden was about to continue badmouthing Cecilia Vaughn, she suddenly noticed Adrian Law’s gaze come over.
Being gazed upon by the man she admired, she was initially bashful, but Adrian Law’s gaze was as cold as low-lying ice, causing an oppressive chill to clutch Chloe Alden’s heart.
"Mr. Law, are you alright?"
Chloe Alden asked cautiously, and Fiona Vaughn too sensed something was amiss, feeling a deep-seated fear toward this man from the soul.
"Mr. Law... are you okay?"
"You two are very good..."
Adrian Law said these four words with a deeper meaning. Chloe Alden was somewhat puzzled, despite Adrian Law’s gloomy expression, the literal meaning seemed to be praising her?
However, in the next moment, they saw Adrian Law casually dial a number, leaving Chloe Alden and Fiona Vaughn looking at each other, not understanding the man’s intentions.
Soon, the call connected.
Adrian Law’s voice carried an uncompromising force, chilling three feet deep.
"Since when did riffraff like them get into Apex Heights? Drag these two women out from the west restroom on the second floor."
"Yes, Mr. Law, we’ll send someone over immediately!"
It took Chloe Alden and Fiona Vaughn a while to realize that the riffraff Adrian Law was referring to was them.
Fiona Vaughn’s face turned ashen immediately!
"Mr. Law, how can you treat Chloe and me like this? When have we ever offended you?"
Even when pleading, Fiona Vaughn instinctively raised her long neck; she knew which angle was her most photogenic one. That tender, tearful posture, most likely to evoke a man’s protective and guilty feelings.
Unfortunately, Adrian Law was not among these mere mortals.
"You haven’t offended me..."
Fiona Vaughn was about to express her joy when she met Adrian Law’s frosty eyes, his gaze treating her like trash.
"Because you have offended my wife!" freёwebnovel.com
This was much more severe than offending him personally.
Fiona Vaughn’s expression contorted for a second; she tightly clenched her hands, her expression sorrowful, intending to plead for mercy.
However, the manager of the Apex Heights clubhouse hall quickly came over in a rush, followed by a dozen bodyguards, of course. Adrian Law, Zion Prescott, and Felix Lockwood were the behind-the-scenes big bosses; who could afford to offend them?
Unless they didn’t want to keep their jobs!
"Mr. Law! Is it them?"
Adrian Law’s expression was murderous.
"It’s not just them; from now on, people from the Alden Family and Vaughn Family are not allowed to set foot in Apex Heights!"
"Yes... yes, Mr. Law!"
Fiona Vaughn and Chloe Alden then realized they had kicked an iron plate!
"No, Mr. Law! You can’t treat me like this!"
Including their families, they were never again to step foot in Apex Heights?
Apex Heights was the highest-end VIP club in Stellerton and even nationwide, the favorite place for prestigious and noble families because it was a symbol of identity!
Being barred meant never being able to lift one’s head in elite circles again!
How would they face life in the future!
