The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 307 The Shepherds’ Disgrace

The Shepherds grimaced at the Vanderwoods’ taunting, but they dared not retort. In the end, they fled the hall in shame.

Much like the rumors suggested, the Shepherds had resorted to underhanded ways to call off Charlie’s engagement to Wynter.

They had chosen Yvette as the ideal wife for Charlie, believing that only an heiress who was both learned and cultured could be good enough to marry into the Shepherd family. As such, the betrothal was made very early on with the Shepherd’s future glory in mind.

However, the Shepherds never expected Charlie to be betrothed to an imposter, or for that imposter to have come from such a powerful

background.

To make matters worse, the Shepherds hadn’t discovered the latter part until after the engagement had been called off.

Safe to say, none of them were happy about this. They were fumin by the time they came out of the hall.

Their foul moods worsened when Charlie began to pelt his uncles with inane questions. “Uncle Jonah, Uncle Vance, why do you both

look so grim?”

“What do you think? This is all your fault!” Jonah Shepherd growled as he patted his chest. “You embarrassed our entire family today! How am I supposed to show my face in public after this?
