"Auntie."

Mary's eyes reddened, and she looked at Mrs. Lambert with guilt.

In fact, Barry was the innocent one.

The prestigious Crown Prince of Sunderland was just a cog that she and Mandy fought for.

"Grandpa, I don't agree."

Soon Barry got downstairs. The doctor gave him a shot, and the effect of the drug was gone.

But the Crown Prince looked exhausted as if after sex.

"Brat, what do you mean? Look what you've done to Mary. If you don't take responsibility, you are not a man."

"Grandpa, I..."

Barry laughed over anger. This woman was so good at it. Now everyone believed he had slept with her.

So what?

"Grandpa, even if I slept with her, I can't marry her. We are grown-ups and consensual about it. Don't make a fuss."

Barry suddenly changed his expression, admitted it but still wouldn't take responsibility.

But such remarks humiliated Mary even more.

Someone couldn't help tittering.

What a shame! She was slept by the Crown Prince like a prostitute, and he didn't plan to shoulder responsibility. She crept on the Crown Prince's bed, so what? She became a laughing stock.

Mary slightly changed countenance, and the bones of her clenched hands bulged. It was hurtful, hurtful to the soul...

"But if Miss Yeates feels wronged, just name a price, I will immediately ask my assistant to transfer the money."

Barry still didn't totally vent out his anger and thus added insult to injury.

"Barry, you are going too far!"

Quentin clenched his fists. The tension on his face indicated his great rage.

"What's the matter, Junior Master Sherwood?"

Barry tittered, "I don't have any relation with Mary. We just slept for half an hour at best. If Junior Master Sherwood doesn't mind that I used her, you can still marry her."

A used woman? Mary smiled instantly and slightly raised her eyes to fight back the tears.

It turned out in Barry's mind, she was worthless and could be given away at will.

"Brat!"

Before Quentin lost his temper, Senior Master Lambert got up abruptly, "Are you getting engaged or what?"

"No."

Barry answered decisively.

Then, he strode out and left everyone behind.

"Dad."

Mrs. Lambert suddenly shouted.

"Grandpa John."

In horror, Mary supported the collapsing man.

Barry abruptly halted his steps.

Due to the sudden swoon of Senior Master Lambert, the banquet was terminated. In a hurry, Barry sent Senior Master Lambert to the hospital, accompanied by Mary.

There was an accident when the senior was sent to the emergency room.

A nurse came out to push the cart. Standing by her side, Mary was accidentally dazzled.

She saw a blade hidden in the nurse's palm.

The nurse pretended to help the old man adjust his clothes but stabbed at him with the blade.

"Help!"

Quick in reaction, Mary pounced on the nurse and knocked her down.

The blade fell to the ground with a clank.

Disturbed by Mary, the nurse abruptly turned over and kicked her.

Mary collapsed to the ground in so much pain that her tears almost fell.

The nurse wanted to continue with her assassination. Unexpectedly, Barry gripped her from behind and subdued her.

Mary looked at the imposing man and hadn't expected his skills to be so good...

The nurse was soon taken away by the bodyguards, and Senior Master Lambert was sent to the emergency room safely.

Such a thing was not accidental. A person of high position was liable to be hated.
