Chapter 817
“Jennifer, what happened?”
The middle-aged man leading the group was one of Sebastian’s younger
brothers, Silas. He was followed by three Oatley family bodyguards and a
woman.
Roselynn recognized the woman from the wedding-Selina Oatley.
Due to the incident with the stolen necklace at the wedding, Selina’s
reputation had been tarnished. Unable to confront the Quillens, she had
quietly shifted her resentment toward Roselynn. So, when she looked at
Roselynn now, her gaze was filled with hostility.
“Silas, you came just in time! This woman castrated my son!” Jennifer’s face
was contorted with hatred as she pointed at Roselynn.
“What?!” Silas exclaimed in shock, clutching his own groin instinctively.
It had to be noted that Jaxton was Sebastian’s only son.
“Get her! Don’t go easy on her. She must pay for what she’s done! Lock her
up!” Selina immediately ordered the three bodyguards.
“I dare you to come near me!” Roselynn wasn’t one to be easily intimidated.
Before the bodyguards could reach her, she brandished the scissors, her
back against the table, and confronted them with determination.
“It’s Jaxton’s own fault! He tried to force himself on me!” Roselynn shouted
defiantly.
Unfortunately, no one present would take her side.
Selina sneered. “Jaxton wanted to force himself on you? Even if it’s true, so
what? You’re his wife. How he treats you is his prerogative. You’re but a cheap
woman playing hard to get!”
Her words were met with unanimous agreement from everyone present.
They dispersed, encircling Roselynn. In any case, they couldn’t let her escape
tonight.

Lucy hid outside the hall, afraid to enter, watching Roselynn face so many
enemies alone, feeling helpless.
“Get her!”
At Selina’s command, the three bodyguards began to close in on Roselynn.
Roselynn gritted her teeth. She knew she couldn’t overpower these people,
but she still showed no fear. She shouted loudly, “Come at me if you’re not
afraid to die! Killing one won’t cost me much, and killing two would be a
bonus! Come on!”
Seeing her fearless appearance, the three bodyguards were slightly
apprehensive. They were just earning their wages; who would want to risk
their lives?! Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
At this critical impasse, the piercing sound of an engine came from outside
the door.
“Roselynn! Can you hear me?!”
Hearing Emmanuel’s voice, Roselynn felt relieved and surprised at the same
time. It had only been two hours since she called Emmanuel. How could he
arrive so quickly?!
“Manny, come in and save me!” Roselynn quickly responded aloud.
Bam!
The next moment, the gated entrance to the Oatley residence was forcefully
kicked open by Emmanuel.
The deafening noise sent shivers down everyone’s spines inside.
Who on earth is this? They actually managed to kick open the iron gate!
“Roselynn!” Emmanuel stormed into the Oatley residence’s hall at once.
Before anyone could discern his figure, he had already positioned himself
before his sister like a gust of wind.
Roselynn let out a breath she didn’t realize she had been holding. With her
little brother by her side, she feared nothing, not even in the darkest of
situations.
Not only Emmanuel but Mackenzie also entered the hall soon after. An icy
atmosphere instantly enveloped the entire space.
