334 Chapter 333

Keira was indeed panicking, terrified that the whip might even slightly touch Mary.

As she watched Ken lift the whip in his hand, ready to bring it down, she could no longer hold back and stepped forward with large strides. Just as she was about to speak, a voice came through

“Stop!”

It was Ellis!

Keira halted in her tracks and immediately turned toward him.

Even Ken was trembling, feeling that if Ellis didn’t show up, he wouldn’t know how to end the scene! He immediately dropped the whip, looked at Ellis, and continued acting “Ellis, what are you doing? The Davis family is executing family law, surely you’re not going to stop us?”

Ellis understood the insinuation in his words and coughed. “The child is mine”

As soon as these words fell, a chorus of sharp intakes of breath filled the surroundings!

Even Christina and Victoria, who had been enjoying the spectacle, stared at Ellis in astonishment.

“Ellis, what nonsense are you talking about? How could Mary’s child be yours?”

“Yeah, Ellis, don’t get yourself into that mess.

Ellis didn’t care about these two and instead looked at Mary.

Mary, who was kneeling on the ground, was now overwhelmed with shock and joy as she looked earnestly at Ellis.

In a moment, Mary found her eyes reddening, feeling like her sincere devotion wasn’t in vain.

Ken pretended to be surprised. “What? It’s yours? Mary, is this true? When did you and Ellis get together?”

Mary bit her lip and remained silent.

Ellis then said, “During our last matchmaking meeting, it was love at first sight. We didn’t have the chance to inform you yet…”

“I see!”

Ken immediately dropped the whip, went forward to help Mary up, and then looked at Ellis. “You ty are really something. You’ve scared an old man like me. To think you’d keep such wonderful news. hidden; by the way, Ellis, when do you plan to get engaged?”

Mary tensed slightly as she turned to look at Ellis.

But Ellis was watching her without a hint of joy on his face, and that demeanor made Mary’s heart. sink.

What did he mean?

While contemplating, Ellis said, “As soon as possible. I’ll discuss it with my parents at home”
