Chapter 267 Girl I’m Right Here

He couldn’t stand the way other men were ogling her body. After landing another vicious kick to Reese he quickly yanked off his suit jacket and draped it over her. He just wanted to take her away. To Sean, Lily his; there was no way he’d let John walk off with her.

Before John could even touch the woman on the bed, Sean’s fist had already slammed into him.

“Who said you could touch her? Stay away from her!”

He didn’t like seeing Lily wrapped in another man’s jacket either.

He wanted to rip it off her, but the thought of exposing her body to everyone again made him grit his teeth and suppress the urge.

“Give me more… It hurts. Me

Sean had just bent down to lift the woman off the bed when he heard her voice, so hoarse it was impossible to tell who she was.

Rage clenched his fists until they nearly shattered.

She was still craving another man, right in front of me? How had she become so cheap? John’s face twisted in horror.

He couldn’t believe Lily had become so shameless, so desperate!

The two of them were too stunned, too furious, too heartbroken to keep fighting over her.

“Ugh.”

Yvonne made a show of retching again.

“Lily is such a wench! I’ve never seen anything more disgusting in my life. She sees a man and can’t wait to strip and throw herself on him! Did you hear what she just said? She wanted to keep messing around with Mr. Reese right in front of all of us… Isn’t she afraid Madam Nora’s going to claw that vixen face of hers to pieces?”

Elsa tilted her chin high with disdain.

She, too, thought Lily was filthy–disgusting to even glance at

But she’d always seen herself as cold and noble, above gossip and pettiness. She didn’t bother echoing Yvonne’s words.

Mathilda let another teardrop fall, looking heartbroken. “Linlin, don’t say that about her.”

“Even if she doesn’t respect herself, even if she likes seducing men, she’ll always be my sister. You can’t talk about her like that. What she did will definitely make James lose faith in her. I just don’t know what to do to help her….

Many of the onlookers had heard about how Lily used to bully and target Mathilda years ago.

Seeing her now, seemingly generous and forgiving, speaking up for Lily and showing so muciccor they were moved by her kindness and grace. People began murmuring praise–how beautiful and she was, both inside and out.

Mathilda lived for this.

She loved hearing people tear Lily down while lifting her up.

She turned up the performance, eyes shimmering with innocence as she looked toward the woman on the bed. “Lily, it’s really wrong of you to cheat on your husband and sleep with another woman’s man. You’ll always be my family. I’ll take care of you, worry about you–I won’t let you face the accusations alone. But can you please stop making James look like a fool and sneaking around with other women’s hinband?”

Mathilda sniffled with just the right amount of theatrical sadness. She was about to say more–to win even more admiration and make people despise Lily even more, when Lily’s mocking laughter rang out.

“Mathilda, if you’re such a good actor, why don’t you become a trash can? I had no idea I was cheating on James or climbing into anyone else’s bed.

At the sound of Lily’s voice, Mathilda, Yvonne, Elsa, and the others instinctively turned to look at the woman lying on the bed.

But once they did, they froze–the voice hadn’t come from there. It had come from behind them.

A terrible realization started to form. They whipped around in disbelief–and saw James holding Lily’s hand, guiding her step by step toward the lounge.

The onlookers stared, wide–eyed, at the sight of Lily, perfectly dressed and composed. As she passed, they instinctively stepped back, parting to give her and James a clear path.

Mathilda’s wide, dewy eyes went comically round with shock.

Even Elsa, always poised and aloof, couldn’t keep her expression neutral.

Yvonne shrieked, voice cracking, “Lily? Weren’t you just on the bed? How are you over here?”

The moment the words left her mouth, she realized how ridiculous it sounded. Lily didn’t have the power to be in two places at once.

If she was walking here with James, then there was no way she was the one in bed.

Which meant, who the heck was… John and Sean, who had been brawling just moments ago, froze as if someone had cast a spell on them the instant they heard Lily’s voice.

Simon jerked in stunned disbelief, then spun around with wild joy on his face.

Bodger and Taylor, whose eyes moments ago had been filled with murderous rage, finally showed a flicker of life.

Like a scene in a movie played in slow motion, both men slowly turned their heads, not daring to blink, locking their eyes on Lily.
