The Billionaire’s Kick-Ass Wife Chapter 485
‘ Nonsense!” Denver and Lydia said in unison.
They looked at Edric angrily and said, “Where did this wild kid come from? How dare he spouts nonsense here! Bodyguard!”
‘ Don’t get carried away. This young man has no reason to frame you here,” Stanton sneered and stopped them.
Eileen’s expression changed. She gritted her teeth and walked over to Edric’s side. She said to Stanton, “Mr. Barker, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have framed you. I’m deeply sorry about this.’
With that, she bowed deeply.
Then, she continued, “Joseph forced me. He said that if I didn’t listen to him, he would kill my boyfriend. He even wanted to show those private photos of mine to my boyfriend. I really had no choice, so… Mr. and Mrs. Barker, I hope you can let me off.”
‘Since you can stand up now and tell the truth, we’ll forgive you. After all, you’re not the mastermind behind this matter,” said Megan.
She looked at Denver and Lydia and said with a sneer, ‘Lydia, should I overestimate you or look down on you?
“Your husband did a nasty thing, yet you are still so protective of him. You are really a piece of work. I, Megan, admire you!”
Her expression was mocking and sympathetic, making Lydia feel embarrassed. Denver was even more exasperated.
At this moment, Stanton said,’ Meg, there’s no need to waste your breath on such people. Since the Page family dared to harm me, I won’t be kind to them.
“I don’t think there’s a need for this Chamber of Commerce to go on. Mr. Anthony, I think you have your own judgment now that things have come to this point. However, I still have to say. the Page family and the Wheeler family shouldn’t be your choices for partners, even if you haven’t decided to cooperate with the Barker family.”
Anthony nodded in all seriousness. He looked at the Page family and Denver in disgust and said, “Mr. Stanton, what you said makes sense. I can’t stay here anymore. You don’t mind if I leave with you, right?”
“Sure!”
Stanton said.
After saying that, he looked at Eileen and Edric. “If you trust me, then follow me. I promise to protect you.”
Edric and Eileen exchanged a glance with each other before they followed Stanton without hesitation. They were aware of the strength of the Page and Wheeler families. It was a piece of cake for the two families to take revenge on them.
If they followed the Barker family, they would be protected and safe.
Before Edric left, he glanced at Michael, who nodded slightly at him.
Edric immediately took a hint.
Anthony and Arvid naturally left with Stanton.
The phone in Arvid’s hand was still on. He said to Isabella, Miraculous Doctor, are we meeting? I heard that you’re also in Maestria.”
In the Barker family, Isabella said with a smile, “You even know this. It seems that you’ve done a lot of investigation. Yes, I’m in the Barker family. Come to the Barker family. We’ll meet soon.
“But are you really happy to see me?”
Isabella’s tone was a little teasing.
Arvid was a little afraid of her. To be exact, he regarded her with reverence. Isabella knew it very well.
How could Arvid admit it? He patted his chest confidently and said, “How could that be…”
On the phone, Isabella’s expression suddenly turned terrifyingly serious. She shouted, ‘Arvid, get down!”
If it were anyone else, they might have doubted or hesitated for a moment. However, Arvid, like a big dog that had heard its master’s order, fell forward without hesitation and lay down.
Sometimes, the subconscious reaction was the best way to show one’s trust in another.
Arvid trusted Isabella without reservation.
But clearly, this trust had saved his life.
Just as Arvid fell to the ground, a bullet silently embedded itself into the ground in front of him.
Everyone was stricken dumb with amazement.
