Crossroads

Chapter 181

Chapter 181

“Mr. Wellington, your friend has been a vegetable in the hospital for six years because of you, and you took the opportunity to steal the woman he loved… You deserve to die!”

Stephanie’s face turned pale. She didn’t understand Mason’s words. But the words, “Dominick…deserves to die,” made her anxious. It sounded like a

curse.

For a moment, everyone in Pearson Villa’s hall looked grim. Dominick remained silent, narrowing his eyes and glaring at Mason.

Perhaps feeling a bit intimidated, Mason said his harsh words and stormed off.

“Stop right there!” Vincent shouted coldly, unwilling to let him go so easily. Mason even had the nerve to insult Dominick.

The Pearson family’s bodyguards on both sides looked nervously at Teresa, unsure if they should stop Mason.

Teresa and the other Pearson family members were anxious, their lips tightly pressed, and they didn’t dare speak. Without clear instructions, the bodyguards didn’t dare act.

Although this was Pearson Villa, no one wanted to offend Dominick. It was best not to get involved in anything related to the Wellington family. Vincent’s face darkened as he watched Mason disappear into the crowd, cursing under his breath, “He gets a bit lucky these past months and thinks he can act so arrogantly.” Mason must have lost his mind or had someone backing him.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense and uncomfortable.

The remaining people felt awkward, and the bodyguards straightened up on both sides. Teresa could no longer maintain her fake smile. Although the violin music from the party outside was soothing, she felt it inappropriate to leave now, it was inappropriate. It was a difficult situation.

She thought, “That damn Mason! He offended Dominick and tried to drag the Pearson family into it!‘

“Mason’s actions have nothing to do with our family. He’s just been lucky recently with his investments. He might be involved in some shady dealings,” Wendy said, smiling wryly and trying to belittle Mason to ease the tension. “Don’t be too angry. People like him will get what they deserve eventually.”

Retribution now carried a different weight.

“Dominick…you deserve to die.” Mason had just said Dominick should face retribution.
