Chapter 206 Stand by Me or Get Out
“Lily, is there anything you won’t do? You’re absolutely disgusting!”
Sure enough, after hearing Mathilda’s little performance, the three Ginger brothers were even more convinced of her innocence and kindness–and even more repulsed by Lily.
Getting bombarded by this gang of psychos first thing in the morning? Lily couldn’t think of a more annoying way to start her day.
She ignored the three Ginger brothers entirely and looked straight at Mathilda. “Done with your show? If you are, take these three rabid dogs and get the hell out.”
“Lily!”
Bodger, Taylor, and Sean hadn’t expected her to call them rabid dogs. All three of them shouted in rage at the same time.
“I know my name’s Lily. No need to keep reminding me. Now get out!”
Nancy and Ivan had arrived early that morning to check on Lily.
Ivan was fiercely protective of his own. So seeing the three Ginger brothers barging in to cause chaos for no reason and Mathilda putting on her little victim act yet again, disturbing Lily’s recovery–he wasn’t about to let it slide.
The moment Lily’s words ended, he gave Sean, who was standing in front, a shove and sneered, “You got donkey hair stuffed in your ears or something? Didn’t you hear Lily tell you to get out? Out, out, out! What are you waiting for? If you’re sick, go find a damn doctor. Or is the Ginger family too broke to treat rabid dog syndrome?”
“Ivan!“:
The three Ginger brothers‘ faces twisted in fury.
They had grown up with Ivan and the others.
Taylor and James were college roommates. Sean and James went to the same high school. They had all been on good terms.
And now Ivan–who always used to greet them with a friendly “bro“-was turning on them for Lily?
Ivan couldn’t care less about their anger.
Sure, the Ginger brothers could fight–but his big brother was even better. The three of them combined still wouldn’t be a match for James.
And with James here, Ivan wasn’t even remotely worried.
He shot them a smug look, then turned his sharp gaze to Mathilda.
The moment he saw the tears sliding down her cheeks, goosebumps broke out all over him.

Chapter 206 Stand by Me or Get Out
The Ginger men all treated Mathilda like she was some angel sent from heaven,

But Ivan? Ivan had been a walking lie detector since birth. Her fake little victim act didn’t fool him for a second.
Shaking off his goosebumps, he snapped, “Mathilda, can you not whine about Lily bullying you every damn time you open your mouth? With the way you act, who’s bullying who isn’t so cleart And Lily drunk- driving and hurting someone? That garbage rumor’s already all over the internet. You seriously didn’t see the video proving Wendy framed her? What, you forget to bring your eyes and brain when you left the house today?”
He smirked. “Oh, wait–I get it. You’re blind and brainless. Only thing you’ve got left is a stomach full of manipulative crap and that fake–tears act you use to smear Lily. If your eyes don’t work, stay home. If your brain got caten by a dog, go get a new one. What are you even bouncing around for? You trying to puke up all that dirty water inside you for everyone to see?”
“Ivan, I…”
Mathilda was stunned.
She’d thought she was acting like the very picture of purity and kindness. Every man in the room should be seeing her halo by now, ready to declare Lily unworthy to even carry her shoes.
Never–not in her wildest dreams–did she expect Ivan to stomp her self–image into the floor like that.
Tears welling in her eyes, she turned to James, silently begging him to defend her. “James…. I came here today because I was really worried about Lily. I don’t know why Ivan’s saying such awful things about me. I’m not a bad person. I just…”
“Shut up.”
James‘ voice was like an icy blade, slicing right through her pathetic little speech.
“I’ll give you this,” he said coldly. “You’re not just bad. You’re stupid and bad.”
“James! How could you say that to Mathilda? Apologize to her–now!”
Taylor couldn’t take it anymore. Fury boiling, he raised a fist and hurled it at James‘ face.
But James moved faster. He caught Taylor’s wrist in one hand and landed a clean, punishing punch with the other.
“Taylor,” he snapped, “the truth is all over the internet. Instead of standing here being a dumbass, why don’t you go read it?”
“Mathilda, don’t cry…”
