566 Chapter 565

….

Scott nodded immediately upon hearing this. “Okay.”

He reached into his pocket, intending to take out the photo, but before he could do that, a voice rang out. “What are you doing?”

Scott and Keira turned around and saw Vera walking toward them.

She looked guarded, staring at Keira and Scott.

Scott then said, “Miss Olsen and I need to discuss something.”

Vera sneered. “What do you want to say? Why can’t your fiancée hear it?”

Scott frowned.

Keira also pursed her lips tight.

She felt rather awkward. Vera and Scott were engaged, yet what she was about to do would break their engagement.

It made her feel as though she had become the big villain.

But then she thought about the tasks that the South family had assigned her and the things Vera had done… Any guilt Keira had immediately vanished.

Mercy to an enemy was cruelty to oneself.

She always remembered this saying.

She addressed the matter. “Miss South, this is our private matter.”

“Private matter?” Vera walked directly over to Scott’s side and took his arm. “He’s my fiancé now. There are no private matters between you two. Miss Olsen, you are engaged too, please have some self-respect!”

Keira frowned. “But hasn’t your engagement ceremony not yet taken place?”

Vera sneered. “But today, I’m the hostess. I had security ask you to leave just now. It seems you’re not willing to obey, are you? If you have no shame, then don’t blame me for being ruthless in my actions!”

Keira’s expression darkened. “What are you going to do?”

Vera said, “Of course, to make you leave! I know Miss Olsen can defend yourself, but if you start a conflict with the Martin family’s security, I will take advantage. I’m sure you wouldn’t want that, right?”

Her attitude was aggressive, and the words she said made Scott’s face turn dark. “Vera, that’s enough. Our guests are to be treated with hospitality. How can you behave like this?”

Vera wasn’t angry; she just looked calmly at him. “How can I behave like this? She and I are rivals since I chose to form an alliance with you through our engagement, and she didn’t have a choice today as I’ve won the battle!”

She stepped forward. “Scott, after today, you’ll be my fiancé, and no matter what standpoint you are from, you should stand with me. I hope you won’t disappoint me!”

Having heard this, Scott frowned. “Vera, that’s enough! No matter what Grandpa promised the South family, today is our engagement party. Miss Olsen is my guest, and you can’t just send her away!”

Vera scoffed. “Are you sure I can’t?”

Scott stood his ground. “I’m sure!”

Vera immediately raised her voice. “Scott, what do you mean? You’re engaged to me, yet you still want to fool around with her?”

The other guests immediately looked over.

Scott was taken aback. “Why are you yelling?”

Vera then started speaking in a grievance-filled tone. “Keera, you already have a fiancé, and you know Scott has feelings for you. Can’t you keep your distance from him?”

She said this with extreme grievance, making those unaware of the situation suspect Keira interfered in their relationship.

Indeed, people around started whispering and pointing fingers at Keira.

A few brothers from the Olsen family walked over. Among them was Peter with Susan.

Upon hearing these words, Susan immediately stepped forward. “Keera, today is a great day for Mr. Martin and Miss South, so please don’t cause trouble here. Let me walk you out!”

Keira turned her gaze to Susan, her eyes piercing.

Susan was the lackey of Fox. Was she openly taking Vera’s side now?

Keira let out a cold laugh, “I don’t need you to worry about my affairs. Peter, you better control her, lest she, like last time, says something inappropriate!”

Peter showed a moment of embarrassment, and he immediately looked at Susan. “Susan, come here. There must be a reason for our Keera acting like this.”

Susan then lowered her head in aggrievement. “Peter, I just feel that Keera has indeed gone too far. I also don’t want the Olsen family’s reputation to be tarnished… After all, Mr. Martin and Miss South will be engaged soon. If Keera doesn’t want Mr. Martin to get engaged, it’s too late to say anything now, right?”

Peter immediately frowned. “Shut your mouth!”

However, Susan bit her lip. “Peter, there are some things I’ve wanted to say for a long time. The Olsen family spoils Keera too much; everything at home is given to her. Now that she’s behaving improperly outside, not knowing how to keep a distance from someone else’s fiancé, she’s certainly at fault.

“Mary is her best friend, and Uncle Olsen hasn’t married. There’s no hostess to teach her manners… As her sister-in-law, I have to be more concerned and educate her more, so that Keera doesn’t take the wrong path. Moreover, Mr. Horton and Vera are both here. What’s Keera doing?”

She looked toward Lewis. “Mr. Horton, your fiancée is flirting with another man right in front of you. Aren’t you going to do something about it?”

Lewis’s face turned livid, and he let out a cold laugh. “Miss Simpson, let me tell you something. You only see what you want to see. We’re in a public setting, and I’ve only seen Keera and Mr. Martin exchange a few words.”

Susan was taken aback.

Lewis was implying she was making things up, which was why she suggested that “Keera” was seducing Scott!

She retorted with a cold laugh.”Mr. Horton, you’re so magnanimous, but Miss Vera doesn’t share your generosity. Since Miss Vera minds it so much, Keera might as well leave. Don’t make a scene here. Everyone is watching, and if this gets out, the Olsen family needs to look after its reputation.”

Keira scoffed. “You keep mentioning the Olsen family. Who are you to the Olsen family?”

Susan snapped. “I am your sister-in-law!”

“Really? When did Peter get married? Why don’t I know about it?”

Keira asked indifferently.

Susan choked up. “We are engaged and will be getting married in half a month!”

“Oh, so it’s just an engagement, and you’re so eager to meddle in my business already. Miss Simpson, the Simpson family teaches their children so well. Have they not taught you to keep your opinions to yourself?”

Keira’s indifferent retort left Susan with a livid face.

Susan said bluntly, “Keera, I’m saying all this for your own good. Since you’re this ungrateful, then I won’t say more! However, Miss South definitely won’t let you off easily!”

After leaving these words behind, she stepped back and turned to look at Vera.

The crowd also turned their gaze to Vera, only to see her eyes filled with tears as she addressed the security by the door. “What are you all standing around for? Get this woman out of here!”

With these words, the faces of the Olsen family members all went pale!
