“Douglas! Conrad’s the one who said he will divorce Fia and marry Esme!”

Beth spoke with an expression that showed as if she had been misunderstood. “Conrad was originally in love with Esme and they had such a good relationship. If it were three years ago…”

“Yeah, that was three years ago!” Hector said harshly.

“Even you’re getting angry at me, Hector?” Beth said with a pout, as if she was a young woman that had been wrongfully blamed.

Douglas and Hector left. They didn’t want to waste any more time with Beth.

Therefore, I’m now letting you know that the Lawsons and the Mannings should keep our distance. Both in terms of our official and personal matters.”
