C146 Sara's Betrayal!(2)

Suddenly, a cold question came from the top of her head.

She looked up and saw the dark face of Justus. Her expression turned ugly. "Zi-Zi-Chen?"

"Answer me." Justus looked down on Sara. His usual gentleness was replaced with hatred and indifference.

Everyone knew that Sara loved Justus, but no one knew that the usually tight-fisted Justus was actually so cold.

Because the Lane family adopted Justus, he treated her like his own sister since he was young.

However, he never knew that she was not going to be his sister.

She was going to be his wife!

Sara wiped her tears away with her hand and hugged Justus with a red face. "Zi-Zi-Chen, I love you so much. Please don't leave me, okay?"

"Auntie Ye threatened me to marry you with her death yesterday. Was it you who instigated her?" Justus looked down at the woman beside him with his dark eyes. His eyes turned colder. "Hmm?"

"I didn't."

"No?" Justus smiled coldly. He didn't believe her.

Ever since he adopted her, Auntie Ye had always been gentle and virtuous.

He really couldn't guess what had changed her. She was so virtuous and rational, yet she suddenly threatened him to marry her.

If Sara did not instigate him, he would not believe it.

"Brother Justus, I... Ah!!!"

Before Sara could finish her explanation, her legs were pushed back into the room by Justus.

Then, he threw her onto the bed. Before she could react, Justus pressed down on her.

"Zi, Justus, what are you doing?"

"As you wish, if she doesn't see me again, I promise to marry you and give you a marriage you want." Justus stared at Sara, his eyes no longer gentle, but only cold. "But it's only a marriage!"

She would never be able to get her hands on him.

Chapter 217: Do You think It's Suitable?

After Reece finished speaking, his cold lips pressed down.

Lydia blushed. She knew exactly what he meant.

...

At this moment, downstairs.

Justus got out of the car and was about to enter the Ellis family's residence.

Seeing that it was him, Janie, who was drinking tea in the living room, raised her hand to stop him.

"Little Violet isn't home?"

"Yes, Mr. Baker, please leave."

As Levy spoke, he opened his hands and made a gesture of invitation.

Justus raised his head and looked at the courtyard of the Ellis family.

Although the black Maybach that Reece was driving was not a high-profile car, no one could ignore it.

Justus could see it with a single glance.

That man’s car was clearly here. Why wasn’t Lydia home?

Obviously...

The person in front of him was purposely not letting him in.

When he thought of this, Justus' face darkened slightly.

He walked past Uncle Levy and entered the courtyard.

"Mr. Baker, didn't I tell you that the young mistress is not here? Mr. Baker? Mr. Baker!"

"Get out of my way."

"I'm just a servant, Mr. Baker. Don't make things difficult for me."

Justus' voice sounded from downstairs.

She frowned and pushed Reece away. "It seems to be Justus."

"And then?"

"I want to settle the matter between him and me personally."

The man frowned. "So..."

"So I have to go downstairs."

Reece glanced at his messy clothes and his dark eyes fell on the woman beside him. "At this time... Do you think it's appropriate to leave me alone?"

Although it was obviously a good thing to be disturbed, Lydia burst out laughing.

The heck.

Was this still the same man who was usually cold?

Why did he suddenly... seem a little different?

Lydia reached out her hand to hook the man's arm and coaxed him gently, "It's just that I have something to do. Please bear with it for a while."

"I can't bear it!"

"Good girl." Lydia kissed the man's cheek and left the room.

Reece rubbed his forehead in frustration.

...

In the courtyard.

Uncle Levy and Justus were at a stalemate.

Unable to do anything about it, Uncle Levy opened his mouth again, "Mr. Baker, please go back."

However, Justus was unwilling to listen and continued to walk forward.

Although Levy had used all his strength to stop him, he was old after all. How could he resist the young Justus? In the end, he was pushed away by Justus.

Justus shook off Levy and strode towards the living room.

At this moment, she bumped into Lydia who was walking down the stairs.

When their eyes met, Justus' footsteps paused for a moment before he slowly opened his mouth, "Little Violet, don't believe the rumors online. I didn't do anything to the Ellis family."

When Lydia decided to meet Justus, she had imagined countless scenarios of their conversation.

However, she never expected that his first sentence would be an explanation instead of a direct question.

"Lydia, can you believe me?"

Justus had already arrived in front of her when she was distracted, and he even grabbed her hand.

Janie was shocked when she saw this scene.

What if Reece saw this?

At that time, he would probably raze the entire Ellis family to the ground.

Janie's face darkened as she glared at the butler, "Ley, what are you waiting for? Drag these people out!"

"Yes, sir."

Levy led a group of servants towards Justus.

Seeing that these people wanted to drag Justus away, Lydia raised her hand and dismissed them, "Let go!"

"M-Miss?"

"Ley, you can leave now. I still have something to discuss with Mr. Baker."

Levy raised his head and looked at Janie who was on the sofa.

Only when Janie nodded did Levy and the others let go of Justus.

Although they had let go of each other, they didn't leave. Instead, they took two steps back and stood at the side. It was as if they were ready to throw them out at any moment.

"Justus, you should know better than anyone else what happened in the Ellis family." Lydia looked at the gentle man in front of her with a cold expression.

Hearing that, Justus’ heart skipped a beat.

Then, she quickly explained, "Lydia, although I have interacted with Aden, we are just business associates. We are not plotting against the Ellis family."

"This excuse is very bad."

"I..."

"Justus, I won't persuade you to be kind. After all, the Ellis family and the Lane family were the ones who betrayed you first. But... I won't let you destroy the Ellis family just like you did to the Lane family."

The girl was expressionless, but every word she said was filled with determination and inviolability.

Justus paused for a moment before nodding. "Alright, I understand. Don't worry, I won't touch the Ellis family from now on."

The enmity between him and the Ellis family was real, but he loved Lydia too much.

The last time, he had attacked the Ellis family out of desperation. Although he was unwilling, he had still stepped on her bottom line.

He didn't want her to hold a grudge against him.

Although he didn't understand why she still wanted to protect the Ellis family even though she knew that she was not related to the Ellis family by blood, he didn't want to touch her anymore.

However, Justus only kept these thoughts in his heart.

He lifted his leg and gently embraced the girl in his arms. "Lydia, I only want you. As long as you marry me, I can let go of all the grudges and hatred."

Lydia's body stiffened when she was suddenly hugged.

Before she could even push him away, she was caught by Reece, who was walking down the stairs.

The man's expression darkened. His heart was filled with jealousy.
