CEO's Dumb Bride novel Chapter 57

Chapter 57 Bastard Son

"What are you doing here in the morning?" Courtney dusted off and helped Lilian up.

Francis' eyes swept across the two's faces. He ignored Courtney's words and locked his eyes on Lilian's face, "Where're you going?"

Courtney took the words and sneered, "What does it have to do with you? It's her legs are on her, and she can go wherever she wants. Lilian is not your pet! Does she have to tell you where she's going?"

Francis turned his sight and looked at Courtney. There were no ups and downs in his tone, "Courtney, do not think that because of Lester, you can challenge my endurance once and once again."

Courtney choked and immediately laughed angrily, "Don't talk about Lester all the time. You can just go for me, and do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Francis turned the corners of his mouth into a sneer, "You are such a stupid and ignorant woman, and you're trying to take Lilian away. If you are not Lester's sister, do you think you can still live to now?"

"Who are you talking about? You are stupid and ignorant!"

Francis didn't bother to quarrel with her, dragging Lilian into the house.

Courtney didn't stop. She ran up and scolded angrily, "Francis Landau, stop! How good do you think you are? You are just a bastard of a mistress. Now you are learning from your father, hooking up with another woman outside. Like father, like son..."

Before Courtney could finish his words, Francis suddenly grabbed her neck and pressed her on the wall. With her back head against the wall, Courtney's eyes went black, and the rest of the words were all swallowed back.

Courtney looked into Francis' black eyes. Although there were no mood swings, her heart sank for no reason.

Francis' mother was not his father's first wife, but his second, and when his mother took Francis to marry into the Landau family, Francis was already four years old.

So there were often rumors outside that Francis was Everett Labdau's illegitimate son and that his mother was a mistress.

Such words could still be heard occasionally.

Lilian didn't expect Courtney would actually say it in the face of Francis.

Francis, however, laughed. He grabbed Courtney by the neck and whispered, "You should be glad you are a woman."

Courtney's face grew red because she was out of breath. She wanted to refute but could not make a sound.
