"Don’t... don’t co over... don’t co over..."
Mason Scott panted heavily, his hands propping on the damp ground as he struggled to crawl back.
The audience below couldn’t figure out what was wrong with Mason.
It was just a donation ceremony, yet one mber of the Scott family was trembling uncontrollably, while another was so frightened that he urinated himself. It was as if they were possessed.
Mason Scott retreated in panic, but the stray dogs specifically brought by Aidan Lucas were uncooperative.
Slling the stench of urine, the four stray dogs beca restless, incessantly looking in Mason’s direction and eager to approach him.
Fear, unease, horror!!!
Mason Scott, like Vivian Walters, scread desperately in his bones and soul!
Just when Mason felt helpless, the voice of Aidan Lucas suddenly resounded.
His deep and indifferent voice, at this mont, seed like a lifeline to Mason.
"Mr. Scott, it’s just a donation certificate presentation. Why must you be so afraid? Get up and hand the certificates to the four recipients."
The recipients, each holding a dog, and what Aidan casually ntioned was for him to approach those wolfhounds!!!
"Mr. Lucas... no, Mr. Lucas, Mr. Lucas... you should know, I can’t go over there, I can’t!"
Mason dared not tell anyone his difficulties, but Aidan knew, he knew!!!
Like a shipwreck survivor floundering in the sea, who suddenly spots a piece of driftwood.
Mason Scott desperately wanted to cling to Aidan Lucas.
Mr. Lucas took a step back; he didn’t want to co into contact with the stinky Mason.
Mason hadn’t expected Mr. Lucas’s step back was just to avoid his foul sll; he thought Mr. Lucas was abandoning him.
The man nearly scared out of his wits, at this mont, could no longer care about family honor, nor did he worry about whether his words would betray his father or daughter.
Mason suddenly shouted, "Mr. Lucas, spare , spare ! I promise I’ll tell you everything, I won’t hide anything. That woman, she... she’s not Lily Gray, she’s an impostor! I will expose her, I will expose her, Mr. Lucas please spare !"
What are a father, a daughter, or the face of the Scott family worth!
As long as those terrifying ’hounds’ are kept away from him, as long as he can avoid recalling that nightmarish ordeal.
Mason Scott, could betray anyone!
"No, Mr. Lucas, don’t believe him!"
Just as Mason’s words fell, another sharp and terrified voice followed.
The guests below were already startled by Mason’s words; seeing the ’Lily Gray’ on the stage screaming, they thought ’Lily Gray’ was about to refute.
But when ’Lily Gray’ spoke, she said—
"He’s lying; I’ve already admitted I’m an impostor, I’m not Lily Gray, there’s no need for him to expose !"
Vivian Walters feared if she spoke too slowly, Aidan Lucas might spare Mason and throw her into the heap of beggars.
"You’re talking nonsense, would you have admitted if I hadn’t exposed you?" Mason Scott, like Vivian, also imdiately began to show his rit.
Vivian Walters and Mason were actually the sa kind of people, both frightened that the other would push all the bla onto themselves.
Thus, both thought, instead of that, it’s better to show their rit simultaneously, perhaps it could make Aidan Lucas let them off the hook.
Mr. Lucas’s lips slightly curled upwards, watching the two ’dogs fight’ on stage.
After letting the two argue noisily and produce enough evidence, he coolly said, "Very well, but now I only want to know one thing. Whoever among you answers quickly, I will let them go down."
Upon hearing this, Mason Scott and Vivian Walters’ eyes instantly lit up, clinging tightly to Aidan Lucas.
