Destined Entwining: Capturing My Devoted Beau

Chapter 1034: Chapter 487: She’s a Decent Person (Second Update)

Lawrence Winters also chuckled and nodded at Mr. Zhuge, ”It’s just the regulations from the relevant department... The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao. Mr. Zhuge, you are the foremost person in the Celestial Path Sect, surely you understand this principle?”

Mr. Zhuge’s expression told her: Still doesn’t understand.

But she didn’t mean to explain, and said with a smile, ”Alright, Mrs. Fang, please continue. You’re not a part of the Celestial Path Sect; you’re allowed to make any judgment. As for whether the judgment is right or wrong, that’s within our work scope.”

Mrs. Fang: ”...”

What’s with this tone of turning the tables?

Mr. Zhuge also felt a bit awkward, but he was an older man, and naturally wouldn’t start arguing with Lawrence Winters face-to-face on a live broadcast in front of the world.

He just nodded and said, ”Mrs. Fang, you can continue talking, tell us why you think Miss Tang is not an ordinary person? Or rather, why you think she’s not human?”

Mrs. Fang’s face changed slightly.

She was in her forties, possibly because taking care of children kept her busy, her upper eyelids nearly drooped down, what should have been beautiful almond-shaped eyes became slightly protruding triangular eyes.

She quickly blinked a few times, as if she was reminiscing, or perhaps a little frightened.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for Mrs. Fang.

After nearly twenty-one seconds of silence, Mrs. Fang finally spoke.

”...She walks without a sound, doesn’t even have a hint of human aura.”

Mr. Zhuge smirked dismissively, ”That’s just your own feeling?”

But Lawrence Winters felt her heart skip a beat.

She recalled Miss Tang suddenly appearing in front of her last night, indeed without a sound when she walked, but the ”human aura” thing is subjective.

She didn’t believe Miss Tang lacked ”human aura.”

However, she asked cautiously, ”...Did you notice this during the day or night?”

”During the day, and at night too. One morning, I took the two kids to daycare and encountered her on the sidewalk on my way back. She startled me. She just quietly appeared behind you, making the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end.”

Mrs. Fang patted her chest, looking as if she was still shaken.

Lawrence Winters shook her head with a smile, ”That’s nothing, if she can come out for a walk in the bright morning sun, she must be alive...”

Glimpsing Mr. Zhuge’s slightly furrowed brow, Lawrence Winters immediately changed her tone and said, ”Okay, a living creature, alright?”

Mr. Zhuge nodded slowly, ”Right, I also think she’s a living creature. Whether she’s human or not, we’ll have to continue listening to Mrs. Fang’s testimony.”

Lawrence Winters just wanted to roll her eyes.

Mrs. Fang saw that the two still appeared dismissive, and said anxiously, ”Really! Please don’t doubt me!”

”After I learned about her with my husband, I specifically went looking for her, trying to persuade her to leave my husband.”

”I went to her home, that big house by the forest.”

”When the previous owner lived there, I had been there too; it was arranged warmly, full of signs of life.”

”But that day when I went to her house, as soon as I stepped inside, the place felt icy cold, even in midsummer. I was wearing a sleeveless silk dress and felt so cold I wanted to put on a sweater.”

”All the previous furnishings were gone, as if newly renovated. It looked nice but like a model home from a magazine, showing no signs of habitation.”

”I sat on the sofa waiting for her, waiting for her to come down from the second floor.”

”But she clearly didn’t want a good talk, just stood at the corner of the staircase on the second floor and said to me coldly: ’Debts from the past must be paid. This is between me and your husband, you should stay out of it.’”

”Listen to that, is that something a human would say? Mr. Yu is my man! She’s intruding on my family! How can I not interfere?! I have one child who is five, another just three, I don’t want them to lose their father at such a young age!”

”I cried and begged her, begged her to spare us, the mother and children. She is young and beautiful, appears to come from a good background, what kind of man can’t she find? Why cling tightly to my husband? Besides, my husband is old enough to be her father, what exactly is she after?”

Lawrence Winters tilted her head and pondered, ”...Maybe she’s not after your husband then? Or maybe she’s after your husband’s money?”

Actually, Mr. Zhuge thought the same.

A man who is almost fifty, not exactly a successful socialite, could he really be that attractive to a woman in her twenties?

Did he think he was like Uncle Nine?

But Mrs. Fang seemed humiliated and suddenly raised her voice, ”Impossible! I control all the money in our family, she can’t be after my husband’s money!”
