Chapter 31 His Help
Lydia, Eason, and even Mia were a little puzzled, but soon, they thought that Byron wanted to help them.
Although Byron also helped Cora before, they still believed that Byron would not embarrass them on such an important
occasion. After all, they were a family.
So, they all scrambled to complain to Byron.
“Yes, Uncle Byron. She pushed me, slapped me, and now put all the blame on me,” Mia said first.
Lydia followed and said, “Byron, I’m sorry. This is Eason’s ex-girlfriend. Maybe she feels angry, so she came here today,
but she is too much. I think we should call the police and let her stay in prison for a few days as a lesson for her.”
Eason didn’t say anything. He didn’t want Cora to go to jail, but he also thought that Cora went too far to beat them up
today, and she should be punished.
Byron didn’t respond to Mia or Lydia.
Cora realized that Byron was asking her.
He had been looking at her since a moment ago.
Surprised for a moment, Cora nodded.
She needed help now. Otherwise, she would not be able to leave here safely, and Sally might be involved.
So, she should tell Byron directly.
After seeing her nodding, Byron nodded slightly.
He said, “It’s not you that I will help. You played tricks and framed others. I will feel ashamed if I help you.”
Enter title…
His voice was not loud, but the intimidating force made people present frightened, and they unconsciously focused their
eyes on him.
Cora also looked at him.
As she raised her head to look at Byron in astonishment, she realized that his gaze fell on Mia coldly.
In other words, Byron really started to help her.
But she was angry at him just now, and he should be angry with her.
Therefore, although Cora had nodded and acknowledged that she needed help earlier, she hadn’t expected Byron to
genuinely assist her.
But Byron really helped her.
“Uncle Byron, I know you don’t like me, but Eason and I have had our child. You can’t be so cruel and let others bully me
just to separate us,” Mia said.
It took her a moment to comprehend that Byron was not assisting her, leaving her feeling somewhat bewildered.
But she had played all the time, and she couldn’t give up halfway.
Otherwise, she would fail to ruin Eason and Cora’s future, and her engagement banquet would also become a joke.
She made witty remarks, saying the fact that Byron didn’t like her in front of everyone, and she made it clear that what
Byron said just now was not helping Cora, but just trying to separate her and Eason.
Her clever words made the people who were looking at her just now turn their eyes to Byron.
Even Lydia, who frowned at her just now, took the initiative to persuade Byron.
She said, “Byron, let Eason and Mia decide for themselves. After all, it’s their own life. Although we are elders, we can’t
decide their life. It’s better not to intervene too much in their affairs. Besides, even if you appreciate Carter, there is no
need to help him in everything.”
Lydia was afraid of Byron. Strictly speaking, her surname ‘Hansen’ was merely an honorary one bestowed by the Hansen
family, which fundament*lly differed from Byron’s surname.
But Mia was now pregnant with Eason’s child, and she was a member of the Patton family.
If Byron turned against her in public, it was equivalent to turning against the Patton family, and even she would lose face.
She had to stand by Mia’s side and deal with this matter well. Therefore, she tried her best to attribute Byron’s move to his
appreciation of Carter to avoid the matter from being serious.
However, Byron just glanced at her coldly and said, “You know that we can’t decide their life, so why did you say that to
me just now? Since you can do this for your son and future daughter-in-law, why can’t I do it for someone I admire?”
Lydia didn’t know how to refute for a while. Her words and deeds were indeed inconsistent just now, and she was also
afraid of Byron’s aura.
People around looked at Carter with ulterior motives. They were surprised that Byron attached importance to him.
Carter calmly adjusted his glasses because he knew that the person Byron admired was not him.
Byron said, “I think no one is more ruthless than you in this world. After all, not everyone can sacrifice their own child in
order to frame others.”
He ignored the gazes of the others and looked at Mia.
Mia said, “Uncle Byron, it is a fact that Cora pushed me and slapped me just now. She is Eason’s ex-girlfriend, and she
wants to reconcile with him. Knowing that I am pregnant with Eason’s child and going to be engaged to him, she tried
every means to get this engagement ruined.”
Mia had a knack for framing others.
But when she finished speaking, Byron sneered coldly.
He said, “If she wanted to ruin this engagement, she wouldn’t have slapped Eason and let him not betray you when he
wanted to cancel the engagement…”
