Whirlwind Marriage: My Possessive CEO's Undying Pampering-Chapter 728 - 727: Choose Between Her and Me (Part 2)
What? According to the rules of the Presidential Mansion!
Isabel Grant was so scared her face turned deathly pale. From the moment he arrived, he had a stern expression; it was the first time he showed such disregard for her as the mistress of the house.
"Are you going to deal with me too?" Ridiculous, absurd!
"That woman nearly cost you your life, and now you still stand by her against me! Lucas Knight, I’m asking you today..."
"Are you going to obey and kick that woman out?"
Isabel was so angry she was a bit incoherent: "That woman caused you such harm, I will never agree to this! You must sever ties with her."
Originally, she had no such intention, but Lucas Knight was causing such a commotion!
The air was thick with tension, and all the wives and servants were stunned.
Lucas Knight’s eyes were full of anger; no one could sway him, and he clearly stood up for Eva Nightingale: "Tonight, I’m here to deal with those who bullied her. She is the woman I personally chose, the Young Madam of the family, and opposing her is a challenge to me!"
Lucas Knight’s meaning was very clear.
He absolutely would not allow anyone to touch what was his... much less a treasure like Eva Nightingale.
Isabel had raised him single-handedly, and for more than twenty years, he had never defied her wishes... except when it came to finding a woman.
Back then, when urging him to marry, Isabel’s intention was for an arranged marriage, to find a suitable Miss for him, but who would have thought he ignored her. Later, Isabel had no choice and lowered her expectations, saying that as long as it was a woman, it would be fine.
Later on, she even privately snuck women into his room late at night, but he didn’t want any of them and had his men throw all those women out of the room, each time they were thrown out like that...
Eventually, Isabel had no recourse because he was very close with Alexander Kingsley from the First Special District, and rumors were circulating he was gay!
Everyone thought he was gay!
At the time, she thought as long as he married anyone, even if she were as dumb as a pig, she would accept!
When she first saw Eva Nightingale at a banquet, she had a very good impression!
At that time, she even quite liked Eva Nightingale, especially since Eva was pregnant... she was actually happy!
Who knew that later on, after he was injured, hospitalized repeatedly, this time Eva, under the title of Young Madam, moved in, rumors had it she was involved with a man, and Isabel’s fondness for her diminished!
Isabel felt uncomfortable inside, everything she did was for his good, why couldn’t he appreciate it?
Her maternal instinct overflowed, protective of her young, she no longer cared about her socialite image, and spoke impulsively:
"Lucas Knight, tonight, you must choose between me and Eva Nightingale."
"This Lanwan Mansion won’t have us both; it’s either her or me."
Having protected him for so many years, Lucas Knight’s loyalty was now to an outsider. Is that why he barged in angrily in the middle of the night, to settle scores with her? 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Isabel’s heart was understandably hurt.
After all, it was the first time he defied her so boldly.
In front of so many guests and socialites, she had lost face, so she no longer cared about her reputation.
Lucas Knight didn’t hesitate: "I only want her."
He responded almost instantly!
This response left Isabel feeling suffocated, unable to release a pent-up frustration; was this the same Lucas Knight who used to avoid women, treating them as insignificant?
What happened to being gay! Where did it go!
The world was turning upside down, he really intended to rebel, for a woman, an outsider, to defy her like this!
