Chapter 482

As Kelly and Laney walked out of the manor, Kelly could sense the tension between Garrett and Vera.

Stepping forward, Kelly spoke on Vera’s behalf.

“Mr. Harding, it has nothing to do with Mrs. Harding. We had no idea that our business partners would suddenly come to visit. This wasn’t anticipated. You can’t blame your mother for it.”

Noticing Kelly’s eagerness to protect Vera, Garrett suspected that she was also involved. He looked at Kelly coldly.

“Aren’t you my secretary?” he asked.

“Do you also work part-time as a housekeeper for my family? I was receiving the business partners at the office, while you have time to attend this dinner party with Laney and my mother?”

He knew that Vera had arranged for Kelly to keep an eye on him, but he hadn’t considered it a threat.

Since Kelly was able to keep those women he fooled around from badgering him, the arrangement had also reduced some of his pressures.

Now, however, he wanted to get rid of all these annoying people including Kelly, so that none of them could hurt Laney! Kelly was speechless.

Glancing at Kelly and Vera, he waved Laney over, saying, “Come here. We’re going home.”

Laney, noticing Garrett’s anger, obediently walked over to him. By this point the driver had already stopped the car in front of them.

“Garrett, where are you going?” Vera asked.

She had remembered something Kelly had said, and was suddenly alert.

Kelly had told her that Garrett had a villa and was planning to move out with Laney.

“I used to turn a blind eye to these things, but I won’t anymore,” Garrett said firmly.

Taking Laney’s hand, he continued, “Laney has sacrificed a lot for me. I won’t let her suffer any more.”
