Lazily Yours.

Chapter 525: The Victim and the Criminal

"Gabi why would say something like that to the Sealey Family?"

"Something like what, brother?" Gabi asked. She just got out of the car and Alfons was already shouting at her.

"You wanted him to marry a maid? That is impossible!"

"Say's who?"

"You— You know that the Sealey Family is a rising star in the country. This isn't going to be an easy blow to them!"

"I know." She started walking inside.

"And yet you still did it."

"Yep."

"Why? I already warned you! Why didn't you listen to me?"

"And why would I?" She stopped walking and looked at Alfons. "You were clearly taking your friend's side. Why would I listen to you?"

"Gabi there are no sides!"

"Yes, there is!" Gabi hissed. "It's the side of the victim and the criminal!"

"There is no crime! That maid seduced him! It wasn't rap*!"

"Yeah, tell that to the court!"

"Are you really going to ruin a family because of this?"

She snorted. "Why are you making it seem like it was my fault brother?"

"What?"

"Now that I thought about it, Harry said it was you who told him that my room was the guest room."

"What?"

"He was intoxicated and clearly drugged and you led him to my room. Why would you do that… brother?"

"I didn't do that."

"Really?"

"Gabi— I didn't tell him that it was the guest room. He was lying!"

"Yeah… you should tell that to your lawyers. I have no interest in talking to a coward anymore."

"Gabi! Wait! Listen to me!"

"Remove your hands!" Gabi hissed when Alfons held her wrist. "Let go!"

"Gabi— I am your older brother! I would never do something that would hurt you. I love you! We are the only Suttons left! Why would I do something that would put you in any danger? Don't you trust me?"

Gabi only snorted in response.

Alfons continued, "He was looking for the bathroom last night. I told him there is a private one on the second floor near your room. I didn't know how he managed to enter your room. I was surprised you. Now that this already happened, I just wanted to control the damage done. Harry said he was willing to pay that woman. However, a marriage cannot happen."

"I already anticipated that."

"What?"

"That he would pay her."

"And? Why are you creating this much ruckus? It is simply not worth it!"

"Really?" Gabi sneered. "But if I was the one who was inside the room… are you still going to ask him to pay for the 'damages'?"

"That— "

"Alfons… be honest with me. Did you want me to marry that man?"

"What?"

"You are scheming against me, Alfons." Gabi squinted her eyes. "Did you want him to hurt me like how he hurt Aren?"

"I would never— "

"THEN STOP PROTECTING THAT CRIMINAL!" Gabi's chest raised and fell as she glared at Alfons. In this life, this is the first time that she raised her voice towards anyone. And she never expected that it would actually feel this good. "If he doesn't want to marry Aren then… I will reveal what he did to the public. He could cry what he want and beg but he will only have two choices! And that was the price for trying to harm me!"

With that, Gabi removed his hand on her wrist and strode towards her office. But how could Alfons give up just like that? Alfons run towards her and started yapping about his friend again.

Irritated, Gabi looked at the man following behind her. "If you won't stop nagging, I will give my proof to the media now!"

"You— "

"Let the public judge!"

"Gabi this isn't good. You can't make the Sealey family your enemy!"

"Why is that?"

"That— "

"Did you think they are greater than me and my family?"

"I didn't say that."

"Alfons… in this country… the only one that could stop me are the royals." She smirked. "You should also know that, right?" The Ren Family is one of the oldest families in this country, even the Royal Family or the Ye Family respects them. This is how powerful the Ren Family is.

And as the only granddaughter of the current chairman, Gabi had a lot of influence in this country too.

The only reason why most people don't know what she looked like is that she didn't attend any special events in the past few years. But this would easily change if she joined one gala that was held by the royals.

If that time comes then… Gabi's influence would soar. Isn't this why Alfons wanted her to marry someone close to him? Tying her down while she isn't that influential is his best option if he wanted to control him.

But this…

This is the complete opposite of what he expected to happen!

"Are you really going to expose them to the media before filing a case?"

"I am no longer talking to you," Gabi said. "I am exhausted. Please leave me alone."

"Gabi…"

"And Alfons? Don't you dare touch Aren. If something happens to her… I will blame you and ruin the Sealey Family until they beg me for their deaths!"

"Gabi... This is not you. What dug

happen to you?"

She only glared at him in response. "I got patience." She said. Patience…
