Chapter 331
Meanwhile, Mandy, who was on her knees, couldn't be bothered by what others thought about her.
She was holding onto Harold's arm tightly and refusing to let go.
Prior to that, Mandy and her family thought Harold was only capable because he had Benson's support.
The members of the Xenos family only realized how foolish they were when they saw Jacques' humble behavior toward Harold. Jacques is the most powerful man in the south. Although Benson and James are big shots in the eyes of the public, those two men are nothing compared to Jacques. It's obvious how impressive Harold's status is. Even if Harold isn't the God of War, his status has to be somewhere on par with that!
At that moment, Mandy was full of regrets. I thought the Xenos family could prosper after Brittany married into the Sinclair family. However, there's no way that's happening anymore. The smartest thing to do now is to salvage our relationship with someone even more powerful—Harold.
Harold knew what kind of person Mandy was. If I were no longer powerful one day, she would undoubtedly turn against me once more and kick me out. After that, she would find another rich and influential man to marry Brittany. As long as Brittany is still young and beautiful, Mandy isn't going to change who she is. Back then, I thought Brittany was still the same girl who saved me. For her, I endured all kinds of difficulties Mandy gave me. However, things have changed. I'll no longer bear with Mandy, and I won't believe a word she says or a thing she does.
With that in mind, Harold wasn't fazed even when Mandy dropped to her knees.
Moreover, he only cared about Isabella right now. There was no room in his heart for any other woman.
Therefore, he shook Mandy's grip off and walked out of the Xenos residence after she was done talking.
Upon seeing Harold's decisive action, a young neighbor couldn't help but exclaim, “Wow! That's so cool!”
The rest of the crowd was also looking at Harold's retreating figure in astonishment.
After Harold left, the neighbors realized the show had ended, so they all went back home.
One of them, a woman, couldn't help but chide, “Serves them right! Back then, the man was so nice to Brittany. Yet, the Xenos family shunned him. The family even deliberately made his life difficult. I bet they're now regretting it!”
The other neighbors nodded in agreement.
When Harold and Brittany were dating back then, he treated the neighbors with kindness. Not only was he friendly, but he would also give fruits to their neighbors occasionally.
Needless to say, everyone had a good impression of Harold after five years of such interactions.
If not for Brittany's beauty, they would even think she wasn't worthy of Harold.
Back then, all the neighbors thought Harold and Brittany were going to get married. To their surprise, the Xenos family made things difficult for Harold on the wedding day.
In the end, Harold gave up and married the bridesmaid.
That incident shook the entire neighborhood, and it became the joke of the town.
At that time, those neighbors were impressed by Harold.
Their admiration for Harold grew when they saw him walk off blithely, no longer caring for Brittany's impressive looks. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Soon, with all the neighbors gone, the Xenos residence plunged into pin-drop silence.
Only the four members of the Xenos family, with their remorseful expressions, remained in the living room.
