Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim by Dream Fish

Chapter 428

Elias and Austin clearly had a good relationship. He was extremely dedicated and responsible.

As they reached the upper floor, a loud, furious roar came from the south-facing bedroom. "Get out, all of you! Who are you? Stop staying in my room!"

Hearing that voice, Angela couldn't hold back any longer. She started crying again. It was Genevieve's familiar, slightly aged voice.

At that moment, two maids rushed out in a panic. A loud thud followed from inside the room as if something had been thrown to the floor.

Upon seeing Austin, the maids turned pale with fear, momentarily at a loss for words. After all, they knew that Austin cared deeply for Genevieve and wouldn't allow anyone to mistreat her.

"You can go now," Austin instructed, waving the two maids away calmly. Then, he pushed the door open and stepped inside.

Angela followed closely behind. The moment she entered, her eyes fell on a middle-aged woman crouched in the corner, trembling with fear.
