Chapter 79

“It’s troublesome outside. You’re weak, Layla. It’s better not to go out. I’m worried about you,” Ethan smiled and rubbed Lola’s hair.

Lola pulled down Ethan’s arm and looked at him seriously. “With you to protect me, I will be fine.

“It’s boring at home every day. If you don’t go with me, I’ll ask Tina to go with me.”

Lola had made up her mind. There were too many doubts that needed to be solved one by one, She would not just sit still and wait for the

answer.

“Okay, okay, listen to you. I’ll go with you.” Ethan finally agreed.

To avoid being noticed, Ethan drove the car himself. He selected boy’s clothes and a peaked cap for her.

“Ethan, is this too exaggerated?” Lola looked at hersell.

Ethan pulled over the car and looked at Layla, who didn’t look like Layla at all. He nodded with satisfaction.

“With your status, it’s better to be cautious”

Through the car window, Lola saw the packed crowd outside.

There seemed to be an activity. The crowd gathered in a circle, and music was playing in the middle.

“What are they.doing?”

Ethan thoughtfully helped her open the door and waited for Lola to get out of the car.

He explained, “They are celebrating. It must be that someone has finally been discovered by a talent scout after continuous hard work and has a chance to become a star. There are often such activities here, which is considered a celebration.”

Lola nodded slightly, saying, “It’s so lively here. There are so many people. Can we go and have a look?”

Where there were many people, there were many gossips. Since the birthday party that day had been in the news, it would definitely be discussed.

“Okay, but you have to follow me closely.” Ethan held Lola’s hand tightly.

Lola and Ethan stood outside the circle. They could barely see the people in the middle preparing the drum set.

“It’s too packed, and we can’t see it clearly. How about

it we go somewhere else?” Ethan looked at Lola.

Lola looked hesitated. “Just stay here a little longer, I want to watch it for a while.”

Ethan was slightly stunned. “You can’t see anything here. What’s so interesting about it?“”

He looked at Lola meaningfully, as if he could see through her in the next second.

Lola instinctively dodged his gaze, feeling inexplicably guilty.

“I really like the atmosphere here. I’ve been bored at home for too long.”

For fear that Ethan would notice something unusual, Lola explained, “You don’t understand that feeling. After all, you haven’t lie in bed for so

long like me.”

Feeling his heart ached for Lola, Ethan rubbed her hair and said, “Okay, just do what you like.”

“Have you heard that news? Ms. Lewis actually did such a thing. It’s so embarrassing!”

“Yeah, she embarrasses herself and even brings shame on the president and the Lewis family. And Scott has been affected because of her.”

A girl said with great emotion, “It’s a pity that such an outstanding man like Scott belongs to her. Layla didn’t cherish him and even did such a

shameful thing”

Lola was slightly stunned. Her first reaction when she heard the discussion was not embarrassment and anger, but excitement.

She finally caught some information. She wanted the crowd to say something more that she didn’t know. Then, they could not keep these things from her for long.

“Is she crazy?”

“Scott is so handsome, yet Layla still hooks up with another man. I thought the news was fake. According to what you said, it seems to be

true.

The girl became more and more excited as she spoke. She gritted her teeth and said, full of indignation, “Of course, it’s true!

“I have known Scott since our childhood. He is a good man. Layla married him, and she should have been contented.”

Lola frowned slightly, having heard such words more than once.

She thought, ‘I married Scott? It’s just an engagement, not reaching the stage of marrying him. Why did they say that?”

“It seems that Ms. Lewis doesn’t have integrity. She actually has marital infidelity. Shame on her!”

“Shut up, Tiffany Hastings! You dare spread rumors about Layla. You are courting death!”

Ethan didn’t want to reveal his identity, so he just ignored these whispers.

But Tiffany went too far with her talk, and Ethan couldn’t stand her gossip anymore.

iffany was slightly startled when she heard someone calling her name. She turned around and saw Ethan looking at her with a cold face. There was also a short “man” standing next to him.

re hit me, I will lie down immediately…I will

“What…what do you want? Do you want to hit me? I am a girl and younger than you. If you dare cry and let my dad teach you a lesson!”

The veins on Ethan’s temples seemed ready to pop. He rarely got furious.

“Huh, go home and ask your dad if you dare to do anything to me!”

A few people who were still listening to

o the gossip in excitement saw that Ethan was there. Afraid of being involved, they quietly left.

Tiffany panicked, “I’m not afraid of you. You can’t hurt me just because you are a noble, or you will be on the next trending topic.

“Stop talking nonsense, Tiffany. Do you really think I won’t hit you?”

Tiffany raised her chin, saying, “Was there anything I said wrong? I said the truth. Did Layla do anything right? No!

Chapter 79.

“Scott is such a good man, but Layla doesn’t cherish him. She has gone too far!

“They should have separated a long time ago. Only I am the most suitable woman for Scott.” Tiffany became more and more excited as she spoke, and she exposed what was in her mind.

Ethan frowned. If Tiffany went on like this, she would say anything even more astonishing.

He couldn’t let Lola hear it.

Tiffany was the only girl in the Hastings family. Ethan couldn’t do anything to her, but he could take her away and stop her from talking

nonsense.

“Come here.”

Ethan grabbed Tiffany’s wrist, then thought of something and turned to look at Lola.

“Wait here for me and don’t run around. I’ll be back in a minute.”

Lola wanted to hear Tiffany continue talking, but she couldn’t say anything right now, so she could only nod.

“Okay.”

Tiffany was slightly startled. It was a female voice….

“Who is she? I’ve never seen her before.” Tiffany bent down to look at the face under the cap.

But Ethan pulled her away. “Come with me! I must teach you a lesson today.”

Tiffany’s struggling and protesting voices became farther and farther away. Lola frowned slightly, thinking, ‘Who is this girl?

She was about to follow them when she suddenly heard rapid footsteps from behind. Some people were rushing towards her.
