Chapter 79 Pass the Blame
Caleb announced that Eva was his fiancée in public. Hearing it, everyone started to murmur.
They didn’t know why the Sommers family insisted on being silly and made their eldest daughter heartbreak. Besides, they still wanted to give the adopted daughter to Caleb? Did they think Mr. Livingstone was such a fool?
If it was before, the Sommers family could still get better by relying on Eva. But now it would be their good luck that Caleb didn’t drive them out of the city. After all, slandering the future Mrs. Livingstone as a mistress was not good thing. The Sommers family was really interesting.
After Caleb and Eva left, the rest of the guests didn’t stay for a minute and hurriedly left.
“Sheila, I didn’t expect you to be such a person. I still felt that you got wronged and hurt Eva for you! But you bitch still wants to step on me and climb up?!” Brody got such a slap in the face in public. He was so mad, and shook off Sheila’s arm.
It seemed that he wanted to break up with her.
Sheila pretended to cry and said pitifully, “No, Brody, please listen to my explanation. I don’t know anything about it. Eva just doesn’t want to see me and you being happy, so she said this on purpose.”
“On purpose? If it wasn’t for what your mother said to her, Eva, who has always endured it, would be so angry with your family? Shame on you and your cheap mother!” Brody was overwhelmed by anger. His eyes widened angrily, and he scolded Sheila sharply.
The guests had all left. Only Brody’s roar could be heard in the silent hall.
As soon as Morgan finished walking the last guest out, when he returned, he saw Brody scolding Sheila and shouting at her. However, Sheila was just crying there. Penelope still stood there with a dull expression on her face.
Penelope never thought that her a few words would make the scene quickly change to what it was now.
A crisp slap sounded in the hall.
Brody turned his head to look. Then he saw Morgan slapping Penelope.
How funny! Now it was their family affairs.
Morgan pointed at Penelope and scolded, “Slut, how can you be so filthy? I’ve been married with you for more than 20 years. This is the first time I know that you are such a vicious person!”
Penelope covered her face and looked carefully at Morgan who was angry. Since the marriage, she had never seen Morgan was so angry with her.
“Mr. Sommers is really good at passing the blame.” Brody said sarcastically.
What was the use of arguing here? They lost Caleb, and Eva completely broke with them. Besides, the Gallagher family would no longer be the backers of the Sommers family.
In the whole Hartvenport and even the whole country, who didn’t know that Brody was Sheila’s fiancé? The two had PDA many times in public. Penelope was going to give Sheila to Caleb now, which was undoubtedly giving the Gallagher family such a hard slap in the face.
How could Brody bear it?
Sheila hugged Brody’s arm and cried bitterly. She kept emphasizing that she didn’t know anything, and begged Brody not to leave her. It was embarrassing to be slapped by Eva just now. If Brody left her at this moment, she would definitely be laughed by everyone tomorrow.
“Brody, don’t listen to Eva’s nonsense. It’s all her mother’s fault. I will teach her a good lesson. This situation will never happen again.” Morgan quickly walked towards Brody, trying to appease him.
Now, he had already lost Caleb. He couldn’t lose the support of the Gallaghers.
“Teach her a lesson? How are you going to teach her?” Brody sneered.
“Come over and apologize to Brody! Are you insane? The relationship between Brody and Sheila is incomparable. Nothing can change it!” Morgan shouted at Penelope. At the same time, he praised Brody as an affectionate person.
Penelope walked over slowly and said to Brody in a hoarse voice, “Brody, it was all my fault. I didn’t say those words. It was Eva who made it up on her own. Don’t believe it. I like you so much. How could I do such a thing?”
The whole family refused to admit the dirty things they had done, and still past the blame to Eva.
Brody was still a little skeptical when he heard Sheila said this. But now everyone was saying like this. Besides, he did see the photo of Eva being with others in bed back then, so he wavered a little…
Morgan winked at Sheila. Then she threw herself into Brody’s arms weakly and softly, and said that she was aggrieved. She told Brody her face still hurt and wanted him to take her away.
Brody hesitated for a moment, but left with Sheila in his arms.
Morgan said, “Don’t worry, Brody. I will definitely resolve this matter and let Eva publicly apologize to you and Sheila.”Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“You’d better do it.” Brody snorted coldly.
Sheila was the best at coaxing Brody. When they got home, she closed the door and coaxed him. She was sure that they would get back together before the sun rose tomorrow morning.
After Brody and Sheila left, the entire hall fell silent again.
Penelope only explained at this moment, “Sheila can bring us fortune. If she can get married with Caleb, our status will also be different. Eva doesn’t get close with us. We can’t get anything even if she gets married with Caleb. But who would have thought that she is so ignorant!”
“What do you want me to comment on you! Can you say that casually? You also know that Eva doesn’t get close with us. Who’s to blame? You don’t even think about it? It’s obvious that Eva and Caleb have a good relationship, but you insist on letting Sheila come to Caleb. What’s wrong with you?” Morgan said in a rage.
After that, he threw away all the wine on the table, like an enraged animal.
“Didn’t you also agree it when I told you about this before? Caleb and Eva were both here today. What a great opportunity!” Penelope defended herself.
“What a good opportunity? It’s ridiculous. I did agree, but did I agree that you act recklessly? If Sheila can make Caleb do that stuff with her, then Caleb won’t have chance to refuse. Now Caleb is beware of you. Besides, you annoyed Brody. What if he breaks off the marriage contract? Who else can Sheila marry? Her reputation is ruined by you!” Morgan roared. “I… I…” Penelope really didn’t think about this, and was stunned by him.
Morgan smashed everything that could be smashed in the banquet hall. Along with the crackling sound, Morgan said to Penelope coldly, “We will sleep in separate rooms. Go to apologize to Eva and the Gallagher family tomorrow. If they don’t forgive you, don’t come back. Just stay at home and reflect yourself.”
After speaking, he walked away. It was so late now, but he didn’t care whether Penelope had any ways to go back to the villa.
