A Crazy Wife novel Chapter 22

Led by Fiona Angela and Leo Bruce, the waiters of the hotel and some guests gather around the Shahbaz family with Chester Shahbaz as the center. They fill the huge hotel suite and watch Hannah Joseph lying on the bed.

"What a good thing you did!" Lily Pons gets angry. "Someone told me that you had a private meeting with a man. Today, I’ll teach you a lesson for the Shahbaz family."

"What?" Hannah Joseph looks pale with fear.

"Who told you? This is slander."

"I've seen you and a man come into this room. It is true. Otherwise, since everyone is in the banquet hall, why are you here alone in this room?”

Beside Fiona Angela, the bridesmaid glares at her and looks confident.

There is an uproar around the audience.

"What… a shameless woman! Go away right away." Lily Pons shivers with rage. She wishes she had executed the daughter-in-law who has lost the Shahbaz family’s face on the spot.

Hannah Joseph whose eyes are red is biting her teeth, "Mom, at the instigation of others, you say that I commit adultery. What’s the proof?”

At the same time, several people brought by Fiona Angela search the room, standing in the corner, shaking heads.

All the guests are puzzled and look at each other.

Lily Pons is also stunned, frowning and looking at Fiona Angela, "What's the matter?"

In a panic, Fiona Angela gets angry and bites her teeth, saying, "Wendy saw it with her own eyes. That can’t be false. They must be hiding, or run before we come."

"Mrs. Bruce!" Hannah Joseph directly interrupts her words and says directly,

"You can't hurt me just because I refuted you because of the calligraphy and painting at the party. I know why I suddenly felt dizzy after drinking a glass of wine and why your bridesmaid came to help me to the room for a rest. It's your intention!"

Hannah Joseph explains clearly the reason why she is here. Lily Pons gets it immediately and all the guests know it.

"The Bruce family is too narrow-minded."

"It’s more than a matter of being narrow-mined. It is slander. If it's true, the Shahbaz family will lose face."

"One thing and another happened between the two families, so I don't think the Bruce family wants to maintain close ties with the Shahbaz family.

In the voice of discussion, Lily Pons's face turns livid. She looks at Leo Bruce rudely. "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation for today's affairs."

"There must be some misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?" Lily Pons raises her voice and wishes everyone on the first floor could hear it clearly, "My eldest daughter-in-law has always been honest and dutiful. It's impossible for her to commit adultery. Your wife tried to frame my eldest daughter-in-law. This is to lose the Shahbaz family's face. We have always treated you well!"

Things change so fast. In Lily Pons's rebuke, the disdainful and discontented onlookers point at Fiona Angela and her husband.

Amid all the noise, Hannah Joseph does not say a word and grins her teeth to endure her discomfort.

The Shahbaz family knows what is right or wrong. Now there is no evidence to prove her to commit adultery. Even though Lily Pons really doubts something, she must cover up for the Shahbaz family at this moment!
