Chapter 443
' Stanton, don't you suspect anyone?" Draxton asked.
Stanton was silent for a moment before saying, "I do have someone in mind."
Draxton looked at him without saying anything.
Stanton said, "At that time, although many people approached me, the person who left the deepest impression on me was Joseph Page. This person had never interacted with me in the past and had never worked with me in business. Yet, he suddenly approached me so eagerly at that time. I did not overthink it although I felt that it was a little strange."
' Joseph Page?" Draxton had no impression of such a small fry.
Stanton said, "Joseph is Denver Wheeler's brother-in-law."
"It's related to the Wheeler family again?" Draxton snorted coldly and looked at Stanton. 'Stanton, don't worry. I'll definitely help you find out the truth and clear your name. When that time comes, let Megan treat you well!’
Stanton immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation. "Hey, brat, when did you learn to tease people like that? You really see everything when you live long enough!"
Draxton smiled.
Stanton snorted and said, "You've changed now that you have a wife!'
Erica brought Shelly to her mother's house. The family sat around a table for dinner.
The Wheeler family's patriarch and Frieda Barker sat at the head of the table. On their left and right were Denver's family, as well as Erica and her daughter.
Shelly was a little distracted.
Frieda glanced at Erica and her daughter and asked, "Shelly, did you go to the Barker family?"
Shelly nodded and said, "Yes, Grandma. I went. I've sent... the invitation to Yvette Barker."
"Did she agree?" Frieda asked again.
"Yes, but..." Shelly remembered the woman with the extremely powerful aura and was a little conflicted.
"Hmm?" Frieda looked at her imposingly.
"But what? Can't you say everything at once?" Erica urged.
Shelly said, "Yvette's cousin-in-law is coming too."
Everyone was stunned.
"Cousin-in-law? Which cousin-in-law?’ Denver was suddenly a little nervous.
Frieda and Erica thought of something and their expressions changed.
Yax looked up and said, "Dad, could Draxton and Isabella be here?"
Denver thought of Draxton and Isabella and felt a headache coming on.
"Something is going to happen in Maestria if they're really here." Denver was a little uneasy.
Patriarch Wheeler snorted and said, "Useless fool, what are you afraid of?"
"I've already told you that Yvette will definitely be able to charm Mr. Chancely. What are you worried about?
"How confident are you in your daughter? Do you think a daughter raised by the Barker family would be that bad, be it in terms of appearance, temperament, or character?"
Erica felt wronged. "Mom, we are no worse than them!"
"Yes, the Wheeler family is a decent family as well. But no matter what, I will definitely think of a way to get Mr. Chancely to take a fancy to Yvette on the day of the banquet. I will definitely protect our Shelly from being harassed.
"No matter how good a girl from the Barker family is, she still belongs to the Barker family. Shelly is my granddaughter. Who else would I protect but her?"
Yax said, "Grandma, isn't it a little immoral for us to do this? Would the Barker family let us off after this? Besides, there's still the Lockwood family..."
"Hey brat, what are you talking about? Who are you calling immoral?’ Denver raised his hand and slapped Yax on the head.
He said angrily, Who else could we get to distract Mr. Chancely away from your sister other than Yvette?
"You don't want Shelly to really be with Mr. Chancely, do you? Your sister’s life will be ruined if that happens!"
Yax covered his head and muttered. Is there no other way? The Lockwood family is really not to be trifled with..."
' Mr. Chancely is not to be trifled with either. Hmph!" Denver glared at him.
"It's settled then. The Barker family owes me. It's their duty to let Yvette help my granddaughter fend off the disaster!"
Frieda sneered, her eyes filled with hatred.
