Chapter 677

“Madam, don’t be upset. The young master has been tied up with business recently. He’ll probably be better once

he’s finished.” The maid tried to comfort Carla, noticing her upset expression.

Feeling a surge of emotion, Carla retreated to her bedroom, her eyes welling with tears as she took in the sight of

the carefully arranged marital suite.

The news of William’s absence on their first night was impossible to keep under wraps.

The Salter family was livid, confronting William.

But William was no longer the puppet he once was. Facing Anthony Salter, he said, “If you think I’m not treating

your sister well, you are free to apply for an annulment.”

“William, you…” Anthony, furious and exasperated, continued, “My sister has done nothing wrong. It’s you who

have done such a thing. It’s a mercy we didn’t send you to jail.”

“Why don’t you ask your sister about the real events?”

William brushed Anthony off, no longer the gentleman he once was, as he continued to say, “Anthony, we’ve known

each other for over twenty years. Do you think I would do such a thing just because I had a few drinks?”

Stunned, Anthony left after a long silence.

Anthony confronted Carla who at last confessed that William had done nothing wrong and that she had initiated it.

“Carla, have you lost your mind? You’ve pushed him away completely!”

William was stoic, but he was a man. He was falsely accused of being a “rapist”, ostracized, and forced into

marriage. How could he be okay with all of that?

“Bro, I didn’t mean to do that. I just love him too much to miss that golden opportunity,” Carla choked, “I’ll make it

up to him.”

Anthony scolded his younger sister, “How could you be so naive?”

The siblings kept the truth hidden. Carla tolerated William’s coldness and avoidance. Nearly half a month into their

marriage, William had hardly been home. He hadn’t even set foot in the Salter family home.–

When that news reached Carla’s friends, they ridiculed her.

Meanwhile, Brittany and her friend Kari Malone were having coffee after meeting with a client when they heard the

gossip.

“Carla, how are things between you and Mr. Dillion?”

A troublemaker deliberately picked a fight, “We heard Mr. Dillion hasn’t even been home since he got married.

Doesn’t he like you?”

“Is it true what happened at the wedding?. If he really did something illegal, why didn’t you call the police? Is such a

man even worth it?”

“Mr. Dillion seemed like a gentleman. He even dated Brittany. Did he do something dirty with her too?”

One by one, they kept on accusing William.

Carla sat silently.

“Shut up!”

Brittany couldn’t stand it anymore. She jumped up, walked over to the gossipers, and grabbed the closest woman,

“Have you ever interacted with William? What right do you have to judge him?”

“I… everyone knows what William did.”

The woman turned pale with fear when she saw Brittany’s annoyed face,

It’s common knowledge. Even Carla doesn’t deny it. What is Brittany so worked up about?

Carla didn’t expect to see Brittany there. She reflexively gripped her coffee cup.

“Unless you have evidence, keep your mouth shut. What kind of person William is doesn’t need your commentary. If

I hear such talk again, I’ll make sure you can’t survive in Imperial City!”

The woman stuttered, “Understood.”
