Chapter 28
BOOM!!!
Serena was floored.
The one who spoke was a vixen even more flamboyant than Madison Harrington, and standing beside her was a foppish young man. At the sight of her, Serena’s expression darkened.
She said coldly, “Victoria Blake, if you can’t speak, then shut your mouth!”
Her words identified the flamboyant vixen. It was the daughter of Serena’s paternal uncle.
“Oh, you married a filthy beggar yourself, but you won’t let anyone else say it? If you’re so high and mighty, why did you marry him in the first place?” Victoria Blake mocked in a singsong voice. “I remember when we were little, a blind fortune teller said that you, Serena Blake, would marry a dragon among men. But look at you now, married to a filthy beggar. That same blind man said I would marry a beggar, but what happened? My husband is the young master of a second-tier family in Silverton City.”
With “filthy beggar” this and “filthy beggar” that, Serena’s lovely face turned pale with fury. Her beautiful peach-blossom eyes filled with a frosty glare.
Just as she was about to retort, Ethan laughed and said, “The fortune teller sounds pretty accurate to me.”
PFFT.
Victoria Blake reacted as if she had just heard the funniest joke in the world and burst into raucous laughter. “You filthy beggar, you’re killing me! Where does a bum like you get the confidence to say something so moronic?”
Before Ethan could speak, the foppish man beside her spoke up with disdain. “Darling, why are you arguing with a filthy beggar? Aren’t you afraid of demeaning yourself?”
“You’re right, honey. Why would I argue with him? Let’s go. Just looking at this pair of losers makes me sick!” Victoria Blake declared proudly.
Ethan said nonchalantly, “Well, being a filthy beggar is better than being impotent!”
BOOM!
The words struck Victoria Blake and her husband like a thunderclap.
How could this filthy beggar possibly know? Victoria Blake wondered, shocked.
Her foppish husband looked ready to explode. For a man, impotence was a fate worse than death.
“You filthy beggar, you’ve got a death wish?” the man roared, trembling with rage.
Ethan put on an innocent expression. “My, so angry? Did I hit a little too close to home?”
The foppish man glared at Ethan, his rage towering. He desperately wanted to kill Ethan on the spot, but he couldn’t make a move. Doing so would be an admission that he was, in fact, impotent. Yet holding back made him so furious he felt like he could vomit blood.
He shot Ethan a few vicious glares. “You filthy beggar, you just wait! If I, Liam Goldwell, don’t destroy you, I’ll take your surname!”
“No, no, please don’t. I wouldn’t want an impotent son like you!”
“DAMN IT!” Liam Goldwell was so enraged he could have spat blood.
“Honey, let’s just go! Why waste our breath on this idiot!” Victoria Blake urged quickly.
His face livid, Liam Goldwell stormed out of the restaurant.
“Darling, are you alright?” Victoria Blake asked gently as soon as they were outside.
The words had barely left her mouth.
SLAP!
Liam Goldwell struck her hard across the face. The heavy slap left Victoria Blake reeling and stunned. She clutched her burning cheek as large tears began to stream down her face like a flood. “Honey, you ... why did you hit me?”
“Damn it all! I’m asking you, did you, you slut, leak this information?” Liam Goldwell demanded furiously.
“Darling, I didn’t! I really didn’t!”
“Bullshit! If you didn’t, then how did that filthy beggar know?”
“I really don’t know!” Victoria Blake said, her face a mask of terror.
Just then, Ethan Blackthorn and Serena Blake happened to walk out of the restaurant. Seeing the scene, Ethan suddenly called out, “Cousin, why is your husband hitting you? Did he find out you were the one who leaked the news about his impotence? You know, brother-in-law, you should be more understanding. My cousin was just worried about you and wanted to get you treated sooner. How could you hit her for that?”
Serena had to suppress a laugh. She never realized this rogue was so good at twisting the knife.
“You filthy beggar, you’re spouting nonsense! I didn’t leak anything!” Victoria Blake said frantically.
