Chapter 116 Kieran, They Bullied Me
Orion and Caleb trampled me down but fawned over Alicia. Today was a big day for Marlon, and everyone was here for him. So, they all wanted to flatter Alicia. That was why Marvin did not get angry with them at all. Besides, I was the last person he wanted to see right now.
"Rachael. Look at what you have done. Now apologize to Mr. Lowery and Mr. Barry." Marvin scolded me loudly.
I lowered my head and apologized to them once again. I saw the reporter who had secretly photographed me from the corner of my eye. He had got it on tape, so I smiled. Very good, Marvin. Tomorrow, you wouldn't get the chance to shed tears. At that time, I wanted you to kneel and beg me!
"So, she's your daughter. Mr. Cornell, I have to say that she doesn't inherit any of your excellent genes!"
"That's right. You don't resemble each other at all. But Alicia looks like you. She's so smart, beautiful and gentle. Alicia should be the role model of all women!"
"That's true. I always ask my daughter to learn from Alicia. If she could be half as good as Alicia, I will be satisfied!"
All the guests began to praise Alicia.
Marvin loved Alicia very much. Now that everyone was speaking highly of her, Marvin loved her more. He caressed Alicia's head. "Alicia has been smart and obedient since she was a kid. Now she gets such a good fiancé like Marlon. Her mother and I didn't do anything!" Then Marvin turned to look at me as he said a little angrily, "But my eldest daughter is quite the opposite. She really bothers me!"
"Mr. Cornell, don't worry about her. You have such a good daughter like Alicia. Just ignore the other one!" "Yeah. Just don't think about her. If she were a rebel, you can cut her off!" Caleb and Orion agreed.
"Mr. Charles!" Suddenly, a sharp and shocked shout attracted everyone's attention.
They turned around and froze. Kieran was slowly walking over from the gate. He was wearing a dark blue shirt and white trousers. He looked very cold yet handsome. There were no emotions in his red eyes. He was like a devil climbing out of the hell. Everyone looked astonished and almost fearful.
There were a lot of bodyguards in black behind him. They were like bloodthirsty demons escaping from the hell.
The crowd of guests saw Kieran and stepped back to the corners. They were like rats seeing a giant beast. They didn't even dare to look at Kieran. It was as if they would be killed after looking at his face. After all, Kieran had done it before.
Marvin's face changed. He didn't expect Kieran to come, because he never wanted me to come.
Shania and Alicia's faces both went an ugly green.
Kieran stopped in front of me. Then he turned to look at Caleb and Orion. His voice was colder than ice as he said word by word, "Did you two say that Marvin could ignore her and cut her off?" Caleb and Orion froze. Kieran was a big shot and they had never got a chance to see him. Now that Kieran spoke to them, they hurriedly nodded.
Kieran stared at them and smiled.
In an instant, the noisy hall went deathly silent. Everyone was frightened, and so was I.
Kieran was a terrifying man. Even if he didn't say anything, he looked very powerful and intimidating. Now he laughed, but his eyes were filled with bloodlust. His cruel smile scared everyone.
Caleb and Orion were so frightened that they knelt in front of Kieran.
I smiled when they knelt on the ground. This was the first time I had laughed tonight.
Then, I pouted and walked to Kieran with my eyes wide open. All the guests were shocked. They thought I was risking my life to approach Kieran.
"Kieran, you're here. They, they're bullying me!" I grabbed Kieran's hand, and tears fell in time. Then everyone's jaw was dropped.
"Really?" Kieran stroked my head and asked indifferently. His gaze swept over everyone and made them step back in fear.
Caleb and Orion looked at me in horror. It seemed that they couldn't understand the relationship between Kieran and me. They knew Kieran was a clean freak, and that he never allowed anyone to get close to him. So, they couldn't figure out why I, a country girl, grew so intimate with Kieran. I could even hold his arm.
Kieran was not interested in women. But he didn't throw me into the sea when I held his arm.
I laughed in my heart. But I was still pouting and crying on the surface. "Yeah, they hurt me. I, I accidentally bumped into them. But they kept asking me to apologize and scolding me!"
Kieran stared at Caleb and Orion coldly. "You want my fiancé to apologize and scold her?"
Kieran's voice was not loud, but his words shocked everyone.
Caleb and Orion turned deathly pale. They stared at me with their eyes wide open as they murmured, "That's impossible. She, Mr. Charles, how could she be your fiancé?"
"Yeah, she can't be your fiancé!"
Kieran looked even colder. The next second, four bodyguards in black walked over and pulled Caleb and Orion up.
"Mr. Charles, I'm sorry! Please spare me!"
"Mr. Charles, we won't do it again. It's our fault! We took it wrong!" Caleb and Orion pleaded for mercy. But no matter how hard they struggled, it was useless. They were dragged out by the bodyguards.
I watched them being dragged away and thought to myself. "Don't blame me. You two are just unlucky."
After Caleb and Orion were dragged away, everyone got panicked and uneasy. Because they had said the same just now.
"Who hurt your leg?" Kieran looked at my leg. If he didn't ask, I would have forgotten that I was injured.
Chris, Saul, don't blame me for doing that. You could only blame yourselves for fawning over Marvin. The Marvin Group must pay the price. From tonight onwards, they would remember my name!
I would not be invisible forever!
"The two security guards outside. Chris, Saul!" Tears leapt from my eyes.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
