Destined Entwining: Capturing My Devoted Beau

Chapter 865: Chapter 431: So What If That’s the Case (Third Update)_3

Ruby Sheldon immediately said, ”Miss Winters, I know you’re married. I saw you the day you went to get your marriage license! My dad saw you too!”

Lawrence Winters suddenly remembered the day she and Kenneth Osborne went to get their marriage license, they ran into Aiden Sheldon, and at the time, Aiden seemed to be video chatting with Ruby Sheldon who was bedridden.

She didn’t expect that traveling across the ocean, through mountains and rivers, she would encounter a ”witness” to her marriage.

She didn’t speak for a moment.

Ruby Sheldon saw Lawrence Winters remain silent and thought she felt guilty, clenched her fist and continued, ”You’re married, shouldn’t you avoid suspicion? How can you go home with another man? My uncle doesn’t know you’re married, does he?”

Lawrence Winters snapped back and smiled, ”He knows. I told him as soon as I got the certificate.”

Ruby Sheldon: ”!!!”

How could this be?

Before she could think of a response, Evan Stetford had already walked over.

He stood tall and straight beside Lawrence Winters, supporting her.

Ruby Sheldon saw Evan Stetford appear in the frame, standing side by side with Lawrence Winters, looking very matched, and became even angrier, couldn’t help but say, ”Uncle, you know Miss Winters is married, right?”

”I know. So what?” Evan Stetford said lightly.

”Uncle doesn’t want to pursue a married woman, right?” Ruby Sheldon blinked and said without hesitation.

”Hmm, of course I wouldn’t pursue a married woman, but Lawrence is already divorced.” Evan Stetford’s tone softened.

”What?!” Ruby Sheldon cried out in shock, ”Divorced again?! When did this happen?!”

Spring Spencer, who was next to Ruby Sheldon, was also very surprised.

She had just found out that Kenneth Osborne and Lawrence Winters were married and now immediately learned that they were divorced.

The corners of her mouth twitched, feeling that these two truly treated marriage as a child’s play...

Lawrence Winters, however, didn’t appreciate Ruby Sheldon’s tone when discussing her private affairs.

She said coldly, ”Whether I’m married or divorced doesn’t seem to be any of Miss Sheldon’s business. Shouldn’t you continue shopping?”

This was a sign she didn’t want to continue the conversation.

Evan Stetford blocked the lens of Autumn Stetford’s phone with his hand and said calmly, ”You can stop streaming now.”

Autumn Stetford smiled, ”Alright.”

She turned the camera back and said to Ruby Sheldon, ”Okay, you guys continue shopping, we’re going to have lunch.”

Ruby Sheldon’s face tightened, extremely displeased, but there was no way to go home immediately.

They were already seated in a famous Michelin restaurant.

After the video call ended, Spring Spencer said to Ruby Sheldon, ”Betty, actually, Lawrence Winters being your aunt is not bad... She’s from such a humble background, can’t compare to the Stetford Family, and can’t overshadow you.”

Ruby Sheldon opened her mouth as if to say something but nothing came out, sullenly saying, ”I don’t want her in my family. Cousin, do you think she’s doing it on purpose? Always following me around, wherever I go, she follows, and now she even covets the Stetford Family.”

”A divorced woman, and she wants to marry into the Stetford Family? My grandpa would never agree. My uncle deserves a better woman!” Ruby Sheldon no longer hid her disdain for Lawrence Winters.

Ever since so many things happened at her birthday party last time, she found she couldn’t stand Lawrence Winters at all.

Even getting close to her made her feel suffocated.

Ava Harlow smiled but said nothing, not getting involved in the younger generation’s disputes.

As soon as Spring Spencer had finished her meal, she learned from a message Autumn Stetford sent in the group chat that Lawrence Winters was going to participate in the Celestial Path Sect World Cup Grand Championship.

”Huh, this will be lively.” Ava Harlow finally commented leisurely.

Ruby Sheldon furrowed her brow, ”...Is she trying to get close to my family to enter the Celestial Path Sect World Cup Grand Championship?”

Spring Spencer wasn’t that naive, she also learned more about Lawrence Winters from Autumn Stetford.

When she saw the matter related to gunmen, her eyebrows shot up even higher.

She couldn’t help but text Kenneth Osborne: A’Yuan, did you divorce Lawrence Winters?

Kenneth Osborne was still reading the book, studying the similarities and differences between his program and the opposing one.

Seeing Spring Spencer’s message, he smirked but didn’t reply.

Spring Spencer continued to send him screenshots of the video from Ruby Sheldon’s phone that she had secretly taken earlier, saying: She went to the Stetford Family, together with Evan.

She added: The Stetford Family is a big shot in Chinatown, with a very powerful overseas influence.

Then she found a few local news articles about Chinatown and sent them to him, including the case about the gunmen.

Such a sensational case, the small papers in local Chinatown would definitely report it.

And they used even more sensational and lurid headlines.

Stuff like ”Cold-Blooded Female Wizard from the Mainland,” ”A Crossing Dragon or a Beautiful Snake” — classic tabloid literature style descriptions.

There were also a few pictures of her fortune-telling for people.

Even though it was just a blurry profile, Kenneth Osborne immediately recognized it as Lawrence Winters!

What is she up to?

Kenneth Osborne frowned deeply.

The image of Lawrence Winters and Evan Stetford standing together as a perfect couple deeply stung him.

And seeing those tabloid stories, connecting it to Lawrence Winters’ knack for causing trouble, he suddenly had a foreboding feeling.

He could no longer concentrate on the book and his program comparisons were futile.

He simply went online to search for news from Chinatown.

What he found online was more comprehensive and detailed than the information Spring Spencer had sent, and looked even more thrilling.

He had never realized that the Grant Branch had such a large influence abroad, and Lawrence Winters... wasn’t she in great danger!

His heart tightened, and without thinking, he opened his phone and booked the earliest flight out of the country.

The next day, when he was leaving, Francis Johnson was very surprised: ”A’Yuan, why are you going abroad so soon? Didn’t you say you’d wait another two weeks?”

Kenneth Osborne replied before boarding the plane: It’s urgent, have to leave now.
