Miss Mystery Got Busted novel Chapter 24

Philip looked at Jermaine who showed such favoritism, sneered, and said with a more resolute attitude, "I don't care if it's a joke. Since Selene agreed to it, she should get in the car. It's not your turn to say no."

Jermaine: "Mr. Lee, it's really Jill's fault..."

Philip raised his hand and gave a direct order, "Take Miss Selene Lewis to the car."

He came with four strong bodyguards, who immediately walked towards Selene when they heard the order.

Selene was so scared that she hid behind Suzanne, her fear making her forget her disguise, "Mom, I don't want to go to the Leach family. I don't want to marry Benson, that crazy, short-lived man."

Philip had watched as Benson grew up and treated him no differently than his own son. When he heard Selene say that about the young master, he was furious, "Carry Selene into the coffin. The young master is crazy and will kill her anyway. Since she has to die, it'd be more convenient if we just put her into the coffin and send her to the cremation."

The bodyguards followed the order without speaking. They pushed Suzanne away and went to grab Selene.

Selene screamed in terror and grabbed Jayden's arm in a hurry, "Jayden, save me. I don't want to lie in a coffin."

Jayden opened his arms to shield Selene behind him and looked up at Philip, "Selene is my fiancée. Please show me and the Hodges family some respect, Mr. Lee."

Philip looked Jayden up and down, who was still bruised and swollen from the fall caused by the dog chasing him yesterday.

Philip snorted disdainfully, "Since when does the Leach family need to show respect to the Hodges?"

He raised his hand to signal the bodyguards to do it while saying, "Beat up whoever stops Selene from getting into the car today!"

The bodyguards grabbed Jayden's arms, clenched their fists, and punched Jayden hard in the stomach.

"Ah!" Jayden's face turned pale with pain.
