The Wife He Forgot to Marry (Winona and Yule) novel Chapter 690

"I'm going to call Mr. Yarwood to come bail you out," Winona said. "Then we're taking you to the hospital to get checked."

Karina's face instantly lit up. "Thank you, Winona!"

Sylvan Scully's legal team was formidable, but Hayes Yarwood was no pushover either. He quickly gathered the necessary evidence and successfully pulled Karina out of the station.

When Sylvan found out Winona had bailed Karina out, he hit the roof.

He already detested Winona, and this just added fuel to the fire.

He ordered his legal team to push forward with the lawsuit.

That evening, Winona brought Karina back to her apartment for dinner.

When Stefan walked in and saw Karina, his tone was icy. "Have you learned your lesson yet? I told you that acting so recklessly would eventually get you burned."

Karina lowered her head, muttering, "It's not like I wanted things to end up this way."

Winona quickly explained the real reason behind the fight.

Stefan's expression softened considerably. "Well, at least you're showing some redeeming qualities. Knowing to defend Winona's reputation is a start."

Karina was speechless.

Did her cousin really have to be so brutally sarcastic all the time?

Knowing the motive behind the brawl, Stefan decided to handle the fallout for her.

He dialed Sylvan's number.

When Sylvan learned that the girl who assaulted his 'daughter' was a Shepherd and Stefan's cousin, he scoffed coldly. "I don't have much of a relationship with the Shepherd family. Her daughter assaults mine, and I'm not supposed to demand an explanation?"

Stefan cut straight to the chase. "Mr. Scully, let's stop playing pretend. I've known Giselle's true identity for a long time. If you don't want Ms. Walden to find out your little secret, you'd better drop the lawsuit."

Sylvan froze. He had no idea Stefan knew Giselle was just an imposter he had paid to play a role.

For a moment, he was completely speechless.

If Wynne found out he had deceived her, the fallout would be catastrophic.

Left with no leverage, he abandoned his crusade for Giselle.
