Chapter 230: Gossip 232

Chapter 232 Catch Them Red Handed #Finished “Roland…” Sasha sobbed, tears streaming down her face, pleading with Roland, hoping he would soften. “You know I’ve always wanted a family and a child. I…

“We can have more children in the future. Why do you insist on keeping this one?” Roland was puzzled. “Isn’t this a mark of humiliation? Won’t seeing the child remind of what happened?”

you Sasha’s sobs seemed to choke in her throat. She was taken aback.

Feeling exhausted, Roland pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. “The wedding will proceed as planned today, but afterward, you have two choices. First, you give up this child, and we start over.

Second, if you insist on keeping the child, we won’t register our marriage, and I’ll announce our divorce, taking all the blame.”

The wedding had to take place. If they didn’t get married that day, Sasha would face criticism.

Having already endured such a blow, he couldn’t bear to let Sasha suffer the pain of rumors and gossip.

Sasha stared at Roland in shock, her eyes vacant, as if she had lost her greatest support. She immediately felt as if she was adrift, consumed by a wave of anxiety and fear.

She reached out, attempting to grasp Roland.

Roland didn’t give Sasha a chance to speak. “Sasha, this is the best I can do.”

Sasha’s hand paused, and she cried even harder.

Hearing this, Isabella and Alexander finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems Roland is a good person, but he has his limits. He doesn’t blame the so–called victim but also won’t let the criminal escape the consequences. It’s just that… Dude, you shouldn’t let her choose. You’re a gentleman, but she doesn’t deserve it! And does this wedding have to go on?

Roland was feeling extremely distressed and naturally couldn’t calm down to comfort Sasha.

“In an hour, the ceremony will begin. Think it through carefully,” Roland told her.

He had done his best for someone he had cherished for years.

As he left the room, Isabella and Alexander saw Roland’s expression. He looked as if he had died inside.

Seeing Roland unsteady on his feet, Alexander stepped forward to support him. Roland immediately waved him off and said, “I’m fine. I’m fine.”

From the room behind them came continuous sobbing. Roland furrowed his brows. “Let’s go.”

Isabella and Alexander accompanied Roland to the lounge downstairs to rest for a while.

I’m going to deal with Ethan,” Roland said directly to Alexander. “He must pay for what he did.”

Alexander didn’t answer. Instead, he asked bluntly, “Are you still going to hold the wedding?”

Isabella gave her husband a thumbs–up, silently praising his bravery.

#Finished just stand by and watch Roland be deceived. Even though it didn’t concern them, they would feel guilty if they didn’t take action to help their friend.

But if they had made a move and the other party disregarded their good intentions, then they wouldn’t interfere.

Sure enough, Roland was taken aback. He frowned and said, “This situation is painful for me, but Sasha is pitiful too. She didn’t betray me intentionally. I can’t just abandon her.”

Roland assumed his friends were simply standing up for him.

“Really? It wasn’t intentional?” Alexander replied coldly “What do you mean by that?” Roland was startled.

“I don’t think she’s as passive and innocent as she appears. Maybe she’s willing from the start,”

Alexander stated bluntly.

“Isn’t this just blaming the victim?” Roland suddenly became agitated.

Isabella quickly interjected, “Are you sure she was forced?”

Roland was about to nod when Alexander said, “In the surveillance videos sent to you, if even one of them was from their first time betraying you, think about what that means.”

Roland froze, his body stiffening as he realized the implications. “But… you don’t know if the first time is in the videos.”

Alexander shrugged. “So, everything is possible. Just think it through. A wedding is important. Don’t waste it on someone unworthy. We don’t trust her.”

With that, Alexander stopped talking and led Isabella away.

Isabella was still confused.

After stepping out, she couldn’t help but ask, “What did you mean by that?”

Alexander explained, “In those videos, Sasha showed only a little resistance. If she were a true victim, she would have had the chance to seek help the first time. However, she didn’t. That leaves two possibilities: either the initial incident isn’t among the videos, or she was willing from the start.”

Isabella understood. Alexander was planting a seed of doubt in Roland’s mind.

“Is that enough?” Isabella asked.

Shaking his head, Alexander replied, “I don’t know either. We’ll have to wait and see.”

After they rejoined Alexander’s friends, they were surrounded by questions.

Meanwhile, Stephanie was about to leave as she didn’t find any answers when she saw Roland in the lounge.

Thinking it over, she approached him. Roland seemed deep in thought with a frown marring his brows.

“Mr. Roland”

Finished Roland looked up abruptly, eyes filled with confusion. Seeing her, he calmed down and frowned.

“Hasn’t he left yer?”

Stephanie pressed her lips together. “He’s treating his wounds. He’ll leave soon. I have a few things to clarify.”

Roland thought for a moment and said, “You want to know about his past?”

Stephanie nodded.

Without hesitation, Roland recounted Ethan’s high school history. When Stephanie heard the true reason for Ethan’s disfigurement, her face turned pale.

“Is everything you said true?”

Stephanie’s face was pale, and her eyes had turned red. Yet, she stubbornly held back tears.

Roland couldn’t help but sympathize her.

“Ms. Nox, if you don’t believe me, you can investigate. He pursued you with a purpose. There are some things I can’t say, but I advise you to be cautious in choosing a partner. The man you’re with is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.”

“Roland!” A voice suddenly called out.

Roland turned to see his father, Owen, approaching. This lounge was empty, but the corridors on both sides were open, so if someone raised their voice or listened closely, they could hear the conversation. Owen had heard it as he approached.

Roland gave his father a cold smile. If Ethan dared to do such things, how could I let him keep Stephanie as a backer?

Owen was anxious to speak, but Stephanie was already leaving in a hurry to question Ethan.

She nearly bumped into someone as she exited the lounge in a rush but didn’t notice it.

Unable to chase after Stephanie, Owen could only look at Roland angrily. “Roland, what are you doing?”

“Dad, did I say anything wrong? Or do you also want your illegitimate son to marry the eldest daughter of the Nox family, so he can rightfully take my place and gain the confidence to claim his heritage?” Roland wasn’t oblivious to the scheming in wealthy families. He just chose not to address it.

“Shut up! What are you talking about?” Owen knew this confrontation would come and had to face it Ethan is a mistake I made when I was young, but he’s still your brother.”

Roland laughed. He wanted to reveal how his “brother” had betrayed him and done disgusting things. Owen probably couldn’t handle such a scandal.

“Dad, you don’t need to explain to me. Save it for Mom “What? Your mom is in poor health. She can’t take such shocks. We need to handle this carefully.”

Handling it carefully meant Ethan would be recognized sooner or later. It was just a matter of time.

Roland scoffed, “You knew that, but when you did such disgraceful things, did you consider my mom’s health?”

Owen nearly fainted from Roland’s sudden vulgarity, but it showed how furious Roland was.

“Fine, fine. I won’t argue with you. The wedding is about to start. Watch your demeanor and don’t cause any more trouble to disgrace the family,” Owen said, turning to leave.

Roland stood there, stiff. The wedding…

Furious, Owen stormed off, oblivious to the trembling figure hidden just around the corner.

It was Daphne. She had heard everything and was holding Roland’s phone, which still displayed the surveillance video, She had come to confront her son about Sasha and Ethan, only to hear that Ethan was her husband’s illegitimate son. The shocking revelation almost made her faint on the spot.

As she remembered her son’s suffering, her anger surged. As a mother, she had to be strong. She managed not to collapse.

She didn’t believe Sasha was a victim. She had never liked Sasha’s whiny, small–minded demeanor. Even if Sasha were a victim, she would never allow a woman who had been with an illegitimate son to marry her son. Especially not when the child’s paternity was uncertain.

She knew her son was too responsible and would endure even if it meant suffering. However, she wouldn’t allow it.

Clutching the phone, Daphne turned and left. She was going to find Sasha.

Meanwhile, Stephanie was still searching for Ethan but couldn’t find him in the unfamiliar estate.

Left with no choice, she had to continue searching.

Daphne also didn’t manage to find Sasha as the makeup artists told her the bride had gone out for some fresh air and would return soon.

Impatient, Daphne headed to the security control room.

At that time, Isabella was half–heartedly engaging in small talk while keeping an ear out for any new developments.

Unbelievable. Sasha sneaked off to see Ethan, telling him that Roland knew everything. She wants Ethan to take her away because she doesn’t want to abort Ethan’s child. But after hearing that, Ethan tells her to agree to the wedding and stay with Roland. He says she can abort the child. Not only that, because he’s angry about being beaten, Ethan plans to cuckold Roland right here and now… Wait… What the f*ck? They’re….

Hearing this, the Quirks were shocked. Is she talking about that? Are they doing something this shameless right now?

Wow! This is our chance. Take Roland to catch them in the act! Everything will be revealed!

Before Isabella could react, Alexander stood up. “1 just remembered something I need to clarify with Roland. Let’s go find him.”
