Mr. Law's Official Announcement: He is a Wife-Doting Fanatic!

The shadows of the trees were deep, and in the thick darkness of the night, the lapis lazuli cufflink was almost too small to see, hitting its mark and then quickly sinking into the water.

No one noticed that Adrian Law had tampered secretly; they only thought Fiona Vaughn lost her balance and tripped on the uneven grass.

Fiona’s knees went weak, and a sharp pain shot through her joints!

She hadn’t realized what had happened when she fell to her knees stiffly.

”Ouch! It hurts!”

Tears welled up in Fiona’s beautiful eyes, not from acting this time, but because her knees genuinely hurt that much!

...

Cecilia Vaughn looked a bit surprised at Fiona kneeling, but she felt no sympathy for such a white lotus and continued to look at her with a half-smile.

”Oh, why are you kneeling? Fiona Vaughn, I can’t possibly accept such a grand gesture from you.”

What a coincidence to kneel down like that!

She had clearly intended to grab the little brat Cecilia Vaughn’s arm!

Fiona’s face turned ashen white with anger in her heart; she wanted to stand up, but a sharp pain in her knees made her stumble and almost kneel again!

The scene was almost too amusing!

Cecilia Vaughn nearly burst into laughter, losing interest in Fiona’s performance, and immediately tugged on Adrian Law’s sleeve.

”Let’s go.”

”Alright.”

Adrian Law coolly took Cecilia’s hand, his smile chilly and regal, and no one would have guessed Fiona’s embarrassment was all his doing.

...

Cecilia Vaughn left with that mysterious man!

Fiona bit her lip tightly, unable to find a reason to stop them, almost tasting blood in her mouth!

She knew that the urgent matter was not to hassle Cecilia, but to figure out how to get Chloe Alden out of the precinct.

Cecilia tried to stand up, but her knees were still too weak!

Damn it, how could this happen!

Feeling thoroughly humiliated, Fiona clenched her jaw and finally looked furiously towards Katherine North.

”Katherine, why aren’t you coming to help me?”

”Oh, oh, okay!”

Katherine, suddenly realizing this was her chance to shine, quickly fawned over Fiona and supported her arm.

”Sister Fiona, are you okay?”

No matter what, Sister Fiona is a rising star in the entertainment industry and a favorite of Director Chandler of ASC; ordinary folks find her hard to approach.

If I can get an introduction from Fiona Vaughn, perhaps I could debut too!

...

Katherine thought she was hiding her ulterior motive well, but how could it escape Fiona’s shrewd eyes?

Another fool!

Trying to step on me to climb up!

Fiona scoffed inwardly, pinching her palm to maintain her composure.

She put on a pitiful smile.

”Katherine, could you help me sit for a while? I need to rest.”

”Sure.”

Katherine promptly helped Fiona to the nearby willow tree, where there were two marble stools for a short rest.

Fiona gently lifted the hem of her pink ancient-style dress and found a large bruise on her knee, with broken skin and streaks of blood!

No wonder it hurt so much!

Fiona had felt a small hard object hit her knee earlier, but without evidence, she didn’t know if she was overthinking it.

Maybe... it was just a small stone on the grass.

Fiona furrowed her elegant brows in thought, but finally decided not to dwell on it.

...

Seeing the large bruise on Fiona’s knee, Katherine started acting self-righteous.

”Sister Fiona, it must hurt a lot! Cecilia Vaughn went too far; you’re her own sister, and she treats you like this!”

Fiona felt impatient with this conniving junior, knowing that beauties often belittle each other, even more so in the entertainment world.

Katherine, the new darling of Stellerton University and a star student in the art department, was admitted through the college entrance exam and had more genuine talent. If she really used Fiona to debut, Fiona’s intricate schemes would be wasted.

Fiona wiped her tears and feigned strength, holding Katherine’s arm.

”Katherine, don’t say that. Maybe my sister was just momentarily upset.”

Katherine fumed.

”Sister, you’re too kind. She’s not just upset; she thinks being the legitimate daughter’s enough to target you, her stepsister. If Stellerton University’s students find out...”

Fiona suddenly panicked, sharply cutting off Katherine’s suggestion.

”Stellerton University’s students must not know!”

Katherine was taken aback; she thought of spreading the story so everyone would know Cecilia mistreated her stepsister, solidifying her unique goddess image in the art department. But Fiona opposed!

Wait... since Cecilia Vaughn is Fiona’s sister, why is she still a freshman?

Katherine was full of doubts.

”Why can’t it be said?”

Fiona bit her lip, tears in her eyes but a magnanimous smile on her lips.

”My sister’s health was poor, and she took a three-year break. It’s normal for her to be a bit irritable. Besides, she doesn’t want people to know about our family ties. Katherine, please don’t spread it.”

Katherine suddenly understood.

”Alright, you poor thing, being so kind.”

Fiona only smiled and said nothing, knowing best that she had been playing up her childhood sweetheart relationship with Tyson Law from high school, attracting a lot of fans!

If the sisterly relationship with Cecilia Vaughn went public, someone would eventually uncover her status as a third party, and her national first love persona would collapse!

...

Currently, Fiona was most curious about Adrian Law’s identity.

Where did this man come from?

Not only was he more handsome than Tyson Law, but his power also seemed no less, perhaps even more!

In Stellerton, could such a person exist?

Fiona’s beautiful eyes filled with suspicion, and after a moment’s thought, she looked with disgust at her now filthy ancient costume.

”Katherine, let’s go back to the hotel and discuss everything further.”

”Okay.”

Katherine supported the limping Fiona as they went to the resort hotel they had booked.

Who would’ve thought, as soon as they reached the entrance, they were stopped by security!

A man in a blue security uniform sized up Fiona and Katherine disdainfully, his expression stern.

”Sorry, due to your association with the troublemaker, we’ve decided to ask both of you and Miss Alden to check out.”

”All your luggage has been packed, and your room charges refunded as per the law.”

Fiona had never experienced being kicked out of a hotel, and already feeling sticky and uncomfortable, she was about to lose it, now having to wander the streets!

”Impossible! We’ve paid; where in the world do you have the right to kick out guests like this!”

”I want to speak to your hotel manager!”
