She Quit Her Family and Found Herself novel Chapter 320

The locals had a deep-seated fear of Desmond. Seeing his absolute fury, they froze, too terrified to even breathe loudly. Desperate to avoid the fallout, they immediately began pointing fingers to clear their names.

"We just followed the Thornes! She said she was arranging a marriage for her son today and wanted us to celebrate with them."

"Right! We didn't know anything. She bragged about him marrying a beautiful city girl, so we just came to look!"

Someone else yelled, "When the fighting started, we didn't touch anyone! We just watched!"

Hearing that, the ones who had physically grabbed the researchers panicked.

"We didn't know what was going on! We're just close with the Thornes! She said it was her daughter-in-law, so we were just helping!"

The crowd erupted into a chaotic shouting match, everyone trying to save their own skin.

"Enough!" Desmond roared, pointing fiercely at the villagers who had joined the scuffle. "You had no idea what was happening, but you jumped in to help kidnap a woman?! Have all my legal seminars been completely useless?! You haven't learned a damn thing! I should have you all locked up!"

The culprits went dead pale.

Desmond then turned his fury on the bystanders. "And you! You just stood there while they attacked government workers?! You couldn't stop them? You couldn't call me?!"

The bystanders shamefully lowered their heads.

Seeing that Desmond had completely taken control of the situation, Brenda decided her best move was to burst into another theatrical fit of sobbing.

"Stop your crying!" Desmond snapped.
