The Fifth Year of Marriage to Him novel Chapter 300

“Exactly, Mari is completely devoted to Mr. Maynard and his company. It was Mari who got Mr. Cruz to come to Seaston.”

Maricela’s lackeys also started to chime in.

The murmuring crowd was suddenly filled with astonishment. So Maricela had that kind of pull!

And so, some people started to side with Maricela.

“Oh, I know about William and Ellianna Maynard. Ellianna has trouble walking, so she never attends any of the wives‘ social events. It’s been really tough for William all these years.”

“I see. So Maricela has had it rough, taking on the responsibility and all the blame.”

“Maricela, just let it go…”

“Lucille.”

Cedrick extended his arm again, saying the same thing, “Come here. Stay with us. I’ll introduce you to some friends in our circle later.”

Cedrick was convinced Lucille still loved him and was just jealous of Mari. Now that he’d made it clear he wouldn’t protect Mari, he was sure she would come to him–out of her deep love for him, and for the sake of his career, the company, and the big picture.

But he was wrong.

Lucille said the same thing, “Make her apologize to me.”

“Fuck!”

Harlan lost it. “Apologize my ass!

You’re choosing the hard way!

Cedrick, enough talk. Just call security and have her thrown out!

Security!

Security!”

No security guards came, but a group of bodyguards in black suits appeared and surrounded

everyone.

At the same time, Edwin went on stage and gave everyone an enthusiastic welcome. Then he said, “Mr. Cruz has also arrived. Let’s give a warm round of applause for Mr. Cruz!”

The crowd erupted.

Everyone had long heard of Mr. Cruz’s great name, but very few had ever seen him in person.

A few of the top dignitaries were already looking over at Robert.

When Robert came to Seaston, he had naturally paid them a visit first, but given their status, it was impossible for them to join the commotion here, so they had remained silent.

And amidst the roaring crowd, there was discussion, anticipation, and also the excited shouts of Maricela’s followers.

“Maricela, Leo is coming out soon.”

“Yeah, Maricela, you’ll get your revenge for those two slaps right away!”

“That’s right, Leo will stand up for you!

Kick all these people out!”

Cedrick and Harlan both found it strange. What was the relationship between Leo and Maricela?

Maricela avoided their gazes, covering her face and saying nothing.

Everyone was waiting expectantly, but Leo was slow to appear on stage.

It wasn’t that Leo was deliberately not going, but the path in front of him was so blocked that he really couldn’t get through, which gave these people time to gossip.

It wasn’t until the bodyguards cleared a path through the crowd that Robert was able to walk forward.

Of course, he was holding Lucille’s hand.

“Hey, where are you two going?

Don’t wander around and embarrass yourselves, this isn’t your…”

Maricela’s voice was still echoing from behind, but Robert was already leading Lucille, who was in a pomegranate–red dress, toward Edwin.
