After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 546

Chapter 546 Trap

Venus turned rather displeased upon hearing Loretta's mockery, "Mrs Sawyer, I am afraid I can't agree with you."

"You still reserve hope for Hannah, huh?"

"Hannah is a part of the Wells. Mrs Sawyer, are you trying to drive a wedge?" Venus refuted coldly.

Loretta soon turned sulky.

She had always been hostile to Venus.

Exactly speaking, she was being jealous.

Venus, known as the hostess of the Wells which was the head of the Top Four families in Kensbury, had been highly respected. However hard Loretta struggled among the upper class, she always appeared a bit inferior to Venus. Thus, she had been dreaming to grind Venus beneath her heels.

Then she simply sneered, "Mrs Wells, I don't mean to provoke but to kindly remind you that some ladies are talented in covering up themselves."

"You're right. You set a great example yourself." Venus nodded to mock.

"Venus!" irritated, Loretta didn't expect such a straight mockery from her.

"Mrs Sawyers, I am afraid the family business of the Wells is not your concern." Showing no intention to continue the conversation, Venus left with the rest of the Wells.

Watching her back, Loretta couldn't help trembling out of the madness.

She thought she could just humiliate Venus. After years of being the inferior one, she had been growing a great grudge against her. Of course, it would be better if she could drive a wedge between Hannah and the Wells, by which she could instigate the conflict between the Wells and the Coopers so that the Sawyers could eventually benefit from it.

Meanwhile, Charles, together with Martina and Sarah, saw an embarrassed look of Loretta.

"Come on, let's go. They are just playing tough. I swear they will soon regret it." Said Charles.

Loretta held back her anger and then huffed, "I swear I am gonna make them suffer!"

Charles nodded.

He expected the doomsday of the Wells.

As soon as they walked out of the court, a group of journalists surrounded them.

Charles hurried to stand in front of Sarah to show how caring he was to her. Meanwhile, Sarah kinda enjoyed it.

"Mr Sawyer, it was said that Oscar fainted away under the pressure of struggling to deny conviction. Was that true?" one of them hurried to ask.

"Yes, that's why the court is adjourned," Charles answered.

"Mr Sawyer, do you believe that it's part of Oscar's plan? He did this to buy himself more time before being sentenced."

"I am not a doctor to provide professional comment."

"It was said that the defence lawyer had been resorting to sophistry. Was that true?"

"Indeed, the way he defended didn't sound strict in logic."

"It was said that the defence attorney strongly speculated that you got involved in Mary's death. Was that true?"

"That's why I consider the way he defended didn't sound strict in logic." Charles refuted it seriously.

But of course, he got to do everything he could to avoid suspicion, especially when exposed to media.

"But people are believing that the statement of defence seems reasonable. Everyone involved remains suspicious before there is certain proof to conclude that Mary was once raped by Oscar." One of the journalists suddenly proposed.
