Chapter 794
“Shaken? Marion is such a weak man. Can his grandfather lock him up if he really wants to save me? He is just pathetic. Don’t worry. I won’t change my mind. In this world, no one is reliable but yourself,” Debra said.
“Well said,” Drake replied, a hint of approval in his voice. He smiled, adding, “Once we bring Marion down, I’ll hand him over to you. You can do whatever you want with him- whips, canes, anything you like, I guarantee we’ll make him beg for his life.”
His words shook Debra’s nerves, but she kept her calm facade intact. “Alright, I imagine that day won’t be far off.”
As they stepped into the banquet hall, all eyes turned to them, glasses raised in greeting.
“Mr. Lowe doesn’t usually attend events like this. What brings him here tonight?”
“Didn’t you notice his companion? I’ve got the scoop that Miss Sharp has fallen from grace. This lady is his new favorite. Mr. Lowe brought her here to flaunt.”
Gasps of surprise rippled through the crowd. Everyone had been convinced that Yvonne would be the future Mrs. Lowe, but now she seemed to be losing her position.
“I always thought Miss Sharp was the most beautiful woman around, but it turns out Orkgate has someone even more stunning.”
“Miss Shu is beautiful, but it’s easy to tire of beauty. If I were Mr. Lowe and met such a stunning woman, I might change my heart too.”
Upstairs, Yvonne’s face drained of color as she overheard the hushed gossip. Dressed only in a thin nightgown, she felt vulnerable. Although her body bore no significant injuries, a cut on her forehead marred her once beautiful face.
Conrad had sent her to the hotel, fearing she would implicate the Sharp family.
“Mr. Sharp has ordered you to stay in the room and not show yourself to anyone,” said a maid, trying to take her back.
Yvonne demanded, “Prepare a gown for me.‘
“But Mr. Sharp said…”
“If you don’t listen to me, I’ll jump from here and make the Sharp family the biggest joke in Orkgate.”
Her face contorted in fury, and the maid, terrified that Yvonne might really jump, hurried to comply.
Everyone in the Sharp family knew that Yvonne always meant her words. This banquet was attended by the elite across the city.
