1209 You Reap What You Sow

The couple, who had been extremely loving in front of everyone earlier, was now like arch-enemies.

After receiving the sudden scolding from Vanessa, Peter had all kinds of expressions on his face.

He was hopping mad after Vanessas scolding, especially when she said that he sponged off women and depended on the Williams for everything. This remark really bruised his ego, and he felt like his pride was trampled on.

Any man with a little backbone definitely wouldnt be able to tolerate this humiliation. They would surely feel ashamed or lose their temper.

!!

But Peter didnt reveal his anger because he didnt dare to lose his temper at Vanessa.

He was an out-and-out leech who sponged off women, and he didnt have the backbone to challenge the Williams at all.

On the contrary, Peter felt immense fear.

Vanessa obviously wanted to draw a line between him and her and the Williams. How could he allow this?

Vanessa I-I didnt know things would turn out like this. You youre right. I managed to get everything I have now by relying on you and the Williams, but I really never thought of causing this disaster to the Williams!

Vanessa, youre my wife. Didnt we agree that we would love each other until death does us part? You cant abandon me now! If even you ignore me, Ill really have no way out!

On account that Ive treated you well all these years and that were married, please save me. I really dont want to die!

Peter begged in agony while hugging Vanessas waist.

At this moment, he had long lost his proud appearance and had horror all over his face as he held onto Vanessa desperately like a dog about to be abandoned.

Peter was well aware that he had offended Ashley and Lucas because of his misjudgment. As a result, even the Williams were in hot soup, let alone him.

But he was just a live-in husband who relied on the Williams. He had no real skills or any other backers. The only straw he could clutch to was Vanessa.

At this point, the Williams were the only ones who could save him. He thought that if he played the emotional card with Vanessa and reminded her of their marriage, she might help him.

Without the Williams, a small fry like him would only end up dying!

Although Lucas sounded extremely brutal, Peter didnt believe that he could destroy the Williams alone.

So no matter what, he had to hold on tight to the Williams!

Get lost! Vanessa pushed Peter away and slapped him hard in exasperation.

Many couples tended to fend for themselves and leave each other during tough times.

If it wasnt because of Peter, Vanessa and the Williams wouldnt be facing this ordeal. Now that they were already in dire straits, they obviously couldnt be bothered about Peters survival since he was the culprit.

After pus.h.i.+ng Peter away with all her might, Vanessa immediately said to Lucas anxiously, Lucas, it was my fault for what happened today. I shouldnt have offended you because of this b.a.s.t.a.r.d Peter. If it wasnt because he was insane and wanted to take revenge on Ashley and lied to me all this while, I wouldnt have offended you since theres no feud between us. Dont you agree?

You youre such a powerful man. You must be able to understand who the real culprit is. Ive indeed made a mistake and offended you, and Ill agree to any punishment you subject me to. I was indeed too foolish and condescending, but I dont think that warrants death, right?

Vanessa begged Lucas with tears in her eyes.

She didnt want to die no matter what!

Rayson hurriedly said, Thats right, Mr. Gray. My daughter indeed made a mistake, but she didnt know your ident.i.ty. She shouldnt have offended you or been so disrespectful to you. I will teach her a lesson and ensure she doesnt repeat the same mistake!

But the real culprit is this b.a.s.t.a.r.d Peter. In fact, I never liked this good-for-nothing, but my daughter was deceived by him and insisted on marrying him, so I

But Vanessa has already seen his true colors and has decided to divorce him. So from now on, this good-for-nothing has nothing to do with the Williams. You can do whatever you want with him!

Rayson drew a clear line between the Williams and Peter.

At the same time, the others in the private room frantically said one after another, Mr. Gray, we we were wrong. Actually, we had no feud with you. We didnt even know each other before. If Peter hadnt fooled us and instigated us, we definitely wouldnt have targeted you and Ashley!

Yeah! Speaking of which, Ashley was our cla.s.smate for four years in college, and we were very close back then. Why would we go against you? Its all because Peter sowed discord!

Yeah, in fact, Peter said those things to make us target you and Ashley. Otherwise, we wouldnt have done so without any rhyme or reason! Please let us off this once and have mercy on us!

The former cla.s.smates, who had spoken harshly to Ashley and Lucas to flatter Peter earlier, were now shunning Peter like the plague and putting the blame on him by claiming that their previous actions were under Peters instructions.

At this moment, they no longer looked at Peter deferentially. Instead, their eyes were full of resentment.

If it wasnt to please Peter and Vanessa, they wouldnt have offended the terrifying Lucas and ended up in this plight where they didnt know whether or not they could leave safely.

The more they had tried to curry favor with Peter just now, the more they hated him now. At this point, they wished they could rush forward and beat the living daylights out of him.

It was only natural for them to feel this way.

Those who had tried every way to get into Peters good books earlier were all spineless and thick-skinned mercenary sn.o.bs who only cared about their own profits. In the face of a crisis, they would naturally try their best to s.h.i.+rk responsibility and put all the blame on others for their wrongdoings in order to get away scot-free.

But this dog-eat-dog situation was just the consequences that Peter had brought upon himself.
