Seeing that Silvia was about to smack her, Alina frowned. She twisted her body aside and dodged.
When she saw that Alina managed to avoid her, Silvia swung her other hand.
Alina's gaze turned cold. She reached out and grabbed Silvia's wrist. She cried out in pain even though Alina delivered a little force. "Ow, ow! Mom, save me! Alina's breaking my wrist! Mom, stop her!"
Her exaggerated expression made Alina frown deeper. She didn't use any strength at all. How could she hurt even her?
"It hurts! My wrist must be broken. Alina, you are such a wicked woman. Wilson, come and see this! Look at this woman you call your wife. She's acting like a pure and innocent girl on the surface, but as soon as you turn your back, she'll transform into an evil witch!" Silvia screamed for help.
Alina felt something was off. She turned her head slightly and saw Wilson's tall figure standing at the door. She was shocked, "Would he misunderstand me?"
She didn't know when she started to care about Wilson's opinion of her.
"Have you had enough?" Wilson asked with his hands on his hips.
Unable to tell whether he was happy or angry, Alina's heart pounded frantically. She let go of Silvia's hand. Silvia lost her balance and fell backwards, crashing into Sophie. They stumbled and almost fell to the ground in a heap.
Alina was at a loss for words as she watched the scene unfold. She opened her mouth to explain herself.
She wanted to say that she hadn't done anything.
It was Silvia who wanted to slap her. She was just defending herself, so she grabbed her hand.
She didn't use much force when she let Silvia go, Silvia was the one who intentionally fell backwards to frame her of assault.
Before she could explain, Silvia interrupted her. "You sly, deceitful snake! What, are you going to hit me after pushing me away?"
Wilson walked up to Alina, grabbed her hand, and left the study. Before they left, he turned back and gave his mother and sister a warning glance.
How could he not see through their tricks?
"S*umbag, it's not my fault." As they walked out, Alina expressed uneasily.
Wilson replied with a smile, "There's no need to explain, I believe you. If my mother and sister did you any harm, I apologise in their stead. Don't take it to heart as they don't have bad intentions. They are just worried about me. Particularly, Silvia is a simple and pure girl. I believe that she will accept you after getting to know each other."
"Thank you, S*umbag!" Alina was extremely thankful for his unconditional belief in her. He believed her without needing to listen to her explanation.
She was really grateful for this.
"Don't be silly!" Wilson responded in a casual tone. He led Alina to another courtyard. "I'll introduce Bennett's brother to you. Besides, Bill and Jayden are here as well."
"Alright." Alina nodded with a smile. She was still feeling relieved and happy because of his trust in her.
Soon, they arrived at another courtyard.
There was a large golf course in the yard.
At this moment, Bill was in golf attire. He was tugging on a large, tan-coloured Afghan hound. It seemed like he had a lot of difficulty in trying to control the dog. He was pulling with all his might at the leash and his whole body leaned back to avoid getting pulled around by the large dog.
Looking at such a comical scene, Alina couldn't help but chuckle. "Is Bill such a funny person?"
"Yes, he is!" Wilson replied.
Alina laughed out loud at Wilson's affirmation. She didn't expect Wilson to have such a sense of humour.
"Silly girl!" Wilson was mesmerized by Alina's infectious smile. With an affectionate gaze, he brought Alina to where Bennett's brother, Nielsen Brooks, was standing.
He introduced her. "This is Alina I've mentioned before. She is now legally my wife."
Nielsen raised his eyebrows. "Legally? When did you get married? Was it announced publicly?"
Wilson replied proudly, "We have registered our marriage, which is the most important thing. It's only a matter of time before the wedding. The ceremony will be in March next year, so start preparing your wedding gifts."
"Nice to meet you, Alina!" After hearing Wilson's words, Nielsen exclaimed in an exaggerated tone and bowed deeply to Alina.
Wilson frowned. "Nielsen, be sensible. Don't frighten my wife!"
Alina greeted him with a sincere smile. "Hello, I'm Alina."
She had cast aside the unhappy memories just now.
As expected, Scumbag knew her best. He knew how she liked to get along with others.
Nielsen continued, "Hello, Alina! I'm Nielsen Brooks, Bennett's younger brother. I've heard praises of your beauty from Jayden and Bill. However, you are much more beautiful than what they had described. Come and have a seat. You should be our referee. We will defeat Wilson for once!"
Alina was still beaming widely. She never expected that Wilson, with his reserved disposition and stony expression, had a group of close friends that were so humorous and outgoing.
Wilson raised his eyebrows. "Alina, just sit and watch. It's not our first time playing golf together, we don't need a referee!"
He didn't want Lina to feel uncomfortable as she wasn't familiar with golf.
Nielsen immediately smiled and agreed, "Alright, you have the final say. You're the boss! Alina, please have a seat. Here is a gift for you as a token of our friendship!"
As he said that, he took out an exquisite box. Nielsen had prepared a gift for Alina beforehand because Wilson mentioned that he was going to introduce Alina to everyone.
