Everyone sympathized with Willow. So, the rumors were true, Willow had lost the ability to bear children.

This type of sympathy was worse than death for her.

She had already been betrayed by Julian, and now, she was being scrutinized under the harsh eyes of the world.

But she couldn’t wallow in self–pity. At the very least, she had to maintain herposure and dignity in front of others.

Willow red at Nancy and spoke each word clearly.

“Don’t think that by humiliating me, I will drop thewsuit.

“Not only will I not drop it, but I’ll file an additional im against your family for defamation. When that happens, Mr. Burke won’t just have to pay damages, but he’ll have to publicly apologize to me on social media.

“He’ll be required to pin the statement on top for a month. I wonder if Mr. Burke can afford to tarnish his reputation like this?”

Nancy regretted it instantly.

She couldn’t allow her husband’s reputation to be tarnished. She wanted to take back her words, but Willow chuckled coldly.

“You can wait for the court summons! I’m leaving now.”

Nancy stared at Willow’s retreating figure dumbfoundedly. After a while, she murmured, “Julian, are you going to let her humiliate us like that?

”

Julian walked over slowly.

He just stared at Charlie and Nancy quietly.

He had always respected them, but he never imagined they would publicly humiliate his wife like this.

They were hurling insults like street thugs. Did they think he was dead?

Amidst the silence, Julian finally spoke, “Willow fell ill because of me.

“If I ever hear anyone insult my wife again, I, Julian Ziegler, will make sure they can’t even find a job sweeping the streets of Brindley, let alone continue as a distinguished artist.”

His words were a direct p in Charlie’s face.

Charlie’s face turned red with humiliation, yet he didn’t dare to refute a single word. Nancy was the same.

This was the first time they had seen Julian lose his temper like this.

Charlie understood that things had changed.

Now, Julian cared about Willow.

After delivering his warning, he ran after Willow.

Nancy realized her mistake and sobbed pitifully.

Charlie was annoyed by herb, /bso he simply walked off to smoke a cigarette in peace.

Unexpectedly, he ran into Heather.

Heather was close to Willow.

Moreoverb, /bshe always despised Charlie.

Now, seeing him, Heather’s face turned cold as she reprimanded him. “Your values are bing more twisted by the day.

“If your daughter had her husband stolen and was treated so unfairly, would you still call her a bully?”

Charlie’s face turned pale. “Our daughter will never be as ruthless as Willow.”

Heather sneeredb, /b“I think Willow’s remarkable. She’s a thousand times better than your shameless daughter.”

If anyone else had said thatb, /bCharlie would’ve erupted in anger.
