Chapter 22 I beg for your help
Led by Fiona Angela and Leo Bruce, the waiters of the hotel and some guests gather around the
Shahbaz family with Chester Shahbaz as the center. They fill the huge hotel suite and watch Hannah
Joseph lying on the bed.
"What a good thing you did!" Lily Pons gets angry. "Someone told me that you had a private meeting
with a man. Today, I’ll teach you a lesson for the Shahbaz family."
"What?" Hannah Joseph looks pale with fear.
"Who told you? This is slander."
"I've seen you and a man come into this room. It is true. Otherwise, since everyone is in the banquet
hall, why are you here alone in this room?” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Beside Fiona Angela, the bridesmaid glares at her and looks confident.
There is an uproar around the audience.
"What… a shameless woman! Go away right away." Lily Pons shivers with rage. She wishes she had
executed the daughter-in-law who has lost the Shahbaz family’s face on the spot.
Hannah Joseph whose eyes are red is biting her teeth, "Mom, at the instigation of others, you say that I
commit adultery. What’s the proof?”
At the same time, several people brought by Fiona Angela search the room, standing in the corner,
shaking heads.
All the guests are puzzled and look at each other.
Lily Pons is also stunned, frowning and looking at Fiona Angela, "What's the matter?"
In a panic, Fiona Angela gets angry and bites her teeth, saying, "Wendy saw it with her own eyes. That
can’t be false. They must be hiding, or run before we come."
"Mrs. Bruce!" Hannah Joseph directly interrupts her words and says directly,
"You can't hurt me just because I refuted you because of the calligraphy and painting at the party. I
know why I suddenly felt dizzy after drinking a glass of wine and why your bridesmaid came to help me
to the room for a rest. It's your intention!"
Hannah Joseph explains clearly the reason why she is here. Lily Pons gets it immediately and all the
guests know it.
"The Bruce family is too narrow-minded."
"It’s more than a matter of being narrow-mined. It is slander. If it's true, the Shahbaz family will lose
face."
"One thing and another happened between the two families, so I don't think the Bruce family wants to
maintain close ties with the Shahbaz family.
In the voice of discussion, Lily Pons's face turns livid. She looks at Leo Bruce rudely. "You'd better give
me a reasonable explanation for today's affairs."
"There must be some misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?" Lily Pons raises her voice and wishes everyone on the first floor could hear it
clearly, "My eldest daughter-in-law has always been honest and dutiful. It's impossible for her to commit
adultery. Your wife tried to frame my eldest daughter-in-law. This is to lose the Shahbaz family's face.
We have always treated you well!"
Things change so fast. In Lily Pons's rebuke, the disdainful and discontented onlookers point at Fiona
Angela and her husband.
Amid all the noise, Hannah Joseph does not say a word and grins her teeth to endure her discomfort.
The Shahbaz family knows what is right or wrong. Now there is no evidence to prove her to commit
adultery. Even though Lily Pons really doubts something, she must cover up for the Shahbaz family at
this moment!
What Fiona Angela did is really disgusting.
The room is filled with quarrels. Nobody can bear it.
In the noise, Chester Shahbaz sits in the wheelchair and looks coldly, as if it has nothing to do with him
and that it is not him who is almost cuckolded.
He looks at Hannah Joseph and sees something from her red face. His brows are slightly wrinkled.
Hearing the news, Moore Bruce (Leo Bruce’s father) comes to smooth things over. All the people are
scattered and only Chester Shahbaz remains,
"It's too noisy outside."
Hearing the concise and comprehensive word, the servants leave the room and close the door.
The room falls into silence.
Hannah Joseph clenches the sheet tightly with her nerves tense. Enduring for such a long time, she is
soaked through under the quilt. At the moment, she could hardly speak a word. Naturally, she could not
deal with Chester Shahbaz.
However, Chester Shahbaz asks slowly as if he is deliberately grinding her, "Where is he? Where is he
hiding?”
He has already known someone sets up a trap to harm Hannah Joseph but he thinks that the man
must exist because a whole set of play is acted.
Hannah Joseph's heart tightens. She has a hundred sets of words to explain at ordinary times, but now
she can't think of a way. She squeezes a word out of her teeth after a while, "I don't know what you're
talking about."
"Do you?" Chester Shahbaz's eyes fall on the sheet she is holding tightly. He gradually approaches to
her in his wheelchair.
"Don't come here."
Hannah Joseph is biting her teeth with a strange look with her chest undulating.
The wheel axle rotates and the slight sound is particularly clear in the room. The wheelchair stops
automatically when its edge touches the bed board. A slender hand holds a corner of the quilt, "Your
courage..."
Meanwhile there is a sticky warm wind when the sheet is lifted. With sudden darkness in Chester
Shahbaz’s eyes and a burst of roar breaking out in the room, his whole body is overturned by this huge
momentum.
His shoulder slams into the carpet and there is a pain of bump. His arms are numb. When he recovers,
he has fallen to the ground and couldn't move.
But when he raises his head, he sees Hannah Joseph sitting across his waist. The shoulder strap of
her dress slips, revealing half of her fragrant shoulders. Her charming eyes are like silk, and her face is
rosy.
"It's so hot… Please help me... "
His lips are blocked with a touch of sweetness before he finishes his words.
Chester Shahbaz's pupils suddenly shrink, but he doesn’t have the strength to push her away, allowing
Hannah Joseph to lie on his body and kiss. She takes his coat off crazily and touches his body here
and there.
"Well..." He stares straight and doesn’t believe it.
Hannah Joseph almost tears his shirt and touches his chest with her hot hands. Her hot cheeks are
against his body, alleviating the burning feeling on her body.
Click! A metal clasp makes an ambiguous sound in the air. His Hermes belt is quickly untied. Chester
Shahbaz's face is already black, and he growls, "Hannah Joseph, Hannah Joseph! Stop!"
"Just one time, please help me..."
