What replied to him was the sounds of people pushing and yelling insults.
“A mistress should be killed! “
“Breaking other families apart, she should be arrested! “
“Just because you look pretty, why do you have to become a mistress! “
Brettley frowned hard at those ugly words.
He suppressed his voice. The aura on him turned ice- cold. “Where are you?”
Bethan hesitated for a while. “At the supermarket near the office, on Quinoa Avenue.”
“I’ll be there shortly.”
Brettley hung up the phone and took a deep breath. He immediately pressed the button of the elevator. “
Bethan is being ganged up on at the supermarket.”
Upon his words, Nellie and Neil looked at each other, then they quickly followed him behind into the elevator.
Once the elevator reached the ground floor, Brettley carried Nellie walking in front, while Neil took his phone to make a call and ran along.
Once they all got in the car, Brettley took a deep breath. “Put on your seatbelts.”
Nellie nodded and strapped on her seatbelt. Then, she checked on Neil’s. “We’re ready! “
Upon her words, the black Maserati shot forth like a rocket.
From Swan Lake Residences to the supermarket usually takes about more than lo minutes. Brettley only took five minutes to reach.
When he got down from the car, Zach and Yuri also just arrived from the office, panting.
The three men looked at each other and quickly ran upstairs.
There were people everywhere at the cashier. Bethan was being surrounded by a group of people.
Once the three of them arrived, Zach and Yuri split the group up while Brettley immediately rushed over and buried Bethan in his arms.
“It’s fine. You’re fine.”
He hugged her skinny body tightly and comforted her in a low voice.
“Who are you?”
“The scumbag that got together with the mistress? ” “Shameless! “
They started attacking manically once more.
Brettley hugged Bethan and coldly lifted his head up. “
Everyone, just shut up! “
His aura was as cold as his gaze. “Whoever says another word, I ’11 make sure they won’t live to see another day! “
Upon his words, the entire supermarket was in dead silence.
A few women wanted to continue insulting, but they were pulled back by others.
“That is Brettley Morrison, the President of the Morrison Group.”
Brettley Morrison.
His name was enough to silence all the women there.
“You’re safe.”
Brettley furrowed his brows. He lowered his eyes and looked at Bethan tenderly. “Let’s go.”
Bethan’s hair was in a mess. Her clothes were torn. She looked extremely haggard.
Under the protection of Brettley, they walked past through the crowd and slowly headed outside. Before they could exit, a woman boldly rushed over. She opened her arms and blocked their path. “Mr. Morrison, you so openly protect your mistress, aren’t you afraid your wife would be angry?”
Her words made the entire supermarket silent once again. Everyone was looking at Brettley.
He slightly narrowed his eyes.
He was letting off a frigidly cold aura, it was cold enough to freeze the entire supermarket.
After a while, he looked at the woman in front of him, then at everybody there.
“First, Bethan is not my mistress. She is an exceptional staff member of my company and a dear friend.
“Next, my wife will not believe these baseless rumors. I also do not need to explain myself.”
Then, he looked at the woman in front of him coldly. “Move aside.”
The woman was determined to continue blocking Brettley and Bethan in their path. “But from what I saw in the video online, it was Mrs. Morrison who first spread the rumor that Bethan is the mistress. Before Mrs. Morrison returned back to you, you had a public image of a deeply loving husband. Now that there are rumors of you having a mistress, what you should do is draw a clear line and not protect this woman and not let your wife continue misunderstanding you.”
Then, the woman took a deep breath. “Or should I say that Mr. Morrison you are admitting to it that your wife’s judgment is right? You are the scumbag having an affair with your mistress?”
Brettley’s gaze turned coldly. He narrowed his eyes and the woman in front. He said coldly, “Are you lecturing me?”
The woman subconsciously took a step back because of his glares. “I’m just stating my opinion.”
“Why the hell should I listen to your opinion?”
Brettley sneered. He lifted up and looked at the surrounding women. “Just because of some baseless rumor, you suspect and attack someone, and I’m supposed to listen to your opinions? Who the hell do you all think you are?”
After spitting these words out coldly, he immediately picked Bethan up.
His actions were too sudden. Bethan instinctively reached out to hug around his neck when he carried her up.
A split moment later, she felt that her actions seemed inappropriate. She immediately let her hands go.
“Brettley, put me down! “
At that moment, everyone was accusing them of having an affair, yet he still carried her like that. Was that not the same as telling everyone that they were a pair together?
Brettley ignored Bethan. He sneered and carried Bethan, walking toward the woman in front of them. “You just want to see this right? I’ll put on a show for you.”
Then, he carried Bethan and walked past the woman, letting Zach and Yuri open up a path. He strode out of the supermarket.
He only took a few steps before he stopped in his tracks and turned back to look at the woman. “Go and tell Alice Peterson. The next time she finds someone to do things like this, find someone whom I’ve not seen before.”
Brettley has seen this woman before. The last time he saw her, she was chatting with Alice outside Blue Bay Villa.
The woman’s face instantly turned pale. “Sir, sorry I’m late.”
Lucas came running in from outside, sweating profusely.
He was busy with his work at the office when he got Brettley’s call. He immediately rushed over, but it seemed that he was still a little late.
“It’s fine.”
Brettley flatly swept a glance at everyone behind. “
Deal with all the surveillance and those that took videos with their handphones, then call the cops on them for disturbing the peace.”
Then, he carried Bethan and left the supermarket.
Lucas wiped off the sweat on his forehead. He contacted more men while getting Zach, Yuri and the bodyguards to seal the scene up.
“Let me down.”
Once they were out of the supermarket, Bethan kept struggling while glaring at Brettley, who was still carrying her.
“Brettley, are you nuts?”
The main reason those people attacked her was that they thought that they were having an affair, yet Brettley openly carried her in public. Was he not just meddling it even more?
Brettley furrowed his brows in somewhat displeasure. He tightened his grip on her. “Stay still.”
