Chapter 353 A Strong Dose Is Necessary 

He had only asked a few questions, and Ezekiel couldn’t help but stand up for Lenora.

Howard secretly thought to himself that Lenora’s tactics were indeed sophisticated. If he allowed things to continue in this manner, Ezekiel might truly fall into her trap. 

“Isn’t it just curiosity?” Howard chuckled, wary of upsetting Ezekiel, so he didn’t press further with his questions 

He decided to take things one step at a time. 

“It’s been a while since I had a good game. My hands are itching for some action. Fancy a few rounds?” Cillian gestured toward the card table. 

Fearful of creating an awkward atmosphere in the private room, everyone nodded in agreement. 

Cillian asked, “Ms. Wilkin, do you know how to play? Would you like to join us?” 

They had invited her out of kindness, hoping to make her feel less restrained and more integrated. Lenora appreciated the thought and accepted their invitation. She stood up and walked over to the card table, sitting down before saying. “I’ve played a few times. I just hope I don’t lose too much.” 

“Ah, don’t you know that beginners often have the best luck?” Cillian looked toward Ezekiel. “Ezekiel, are you-” 

Before he could finish his sentence, Howard took a seat across from Lenora. With a slight smile, he said. “I’m itching for a game myself. I’ll join you for a few rounds.” 

The other two spots were respectively occupied by Ezekiel and Cillian, with everyone else sitting off to the side, observing. 

Perhaps Cillian had hit the nail on the head. Lenora was indeed lucky, having won the first two rounds. 

The third round was won by Cillian. 

Howard wasn’t having the best of luck. Despite 

ountless attempts, he had only managed to win once- 

Lenora and the other two handed him the betting chips 

Howard placed the chips of Ezekiel and Cillian into his drawer, leaving only Lenora’s. He pushed it back toward her, a playful smirk on his face as he looked at Lenora. “Ms. Wilkin, there’s no need to hand over your chips. Let’s treat this as a game of Truth Or Dare. If you lose, you’ll have to answer a question of mine. Why did you marry Zachary in the first place?” 

With a calm expression, Lenora slid the chips back across the table. “And what if I don’t answer?” 

A smirk tugged at Howard’s lips as he glanced at Ezekiel, undeterred by his intimidating gaze. “Ms. Wilkin, I’m simply curious. There’s no harm in your sharing.” 

She must have climbed onto Zachary’s bed, afraid to let Ezekiel find out. 

“I’m also curious why are you interested in my marital status, Mr. Winfrey. Do you always approach newly

acquainted friends with such straightforwardness?”

Cillian, who was standing next to him, opened Howard’s drawer and tossed in the chips. “It’s rare for us to get together. Let’s just enjoy the game and stop talking nonsense,” he said. 

Howard was toying with the dice in his hand. “I’ve just heard a rumor, and I wanted to confirm it with Ms. Wilkin, who’s involved in the matter.” 

“Howard!” Ezekiel’s spoke sternly, his voice laced with a note of caution. 

Howard hesitated for a moment before finally asking. There’s a rumor that the reason Ms. Wilkin married Zachary was because she ended up in his bed, and the elders of the Fuller family found out. As someone directly involved, how do you feel about these claims?” 

At that moment, Howard felt gazes coming at him from all directions. 

Particularly, Ezekiel’s gaze was as sharp as an arrow. 

Sweat trickled down the tip of Howard’s nose, a sense of hesitation momentarily surfacing within him. However, he quickly regained his composure. 

He stood tall and straight, evoking the image of an unyielding soldier. 

Things had reached this point, and if Ezekiel were to blame him, then so be it. He would rather bear Ezekiel’s blame than allow Ezekiel to be tainted by the leeches in the future. 

One day, Ezekiel would come to realize that all Howard had done was for his sake. 

Lenora didn’t understand why Howard harbored such hostility toward her. She calmly said. “The fact that you’re questioning me like this means you’ve already made up your mind. Even if I defended myself, you might not believe me. If you’re so eager to hear it from the person involved, I could call Zachary for you. think? He should be more credible than me. Don’t you 

Howard paused, wanting to say something more, when suddenly, there was a loud noise. 

Ezekiel swept all the neatly stacked cards in front of him into the center of the table. The clattering noise was loud. 

He lifted his gaze to Howard, who had momentarily frozen, and said coldly, “She’s asking you a question! Do you want to hear it straight from Zachary’s mouth? 

Howard snapped back to reality, immediately shaking his head. “No… No need for that.” 

He thought to himself that getting Lenora to admit it verbally was no longer an option. Lenora was too cunning, and Ezekiel would only assume that he was bullying her. 

He had to come up with a good plan, a way to reveal the true colors of Lenora to Ezekiel. 

“How can you just stop finding out without knowing the outcome? Aren’t you curious?” Ezekiel’s tone was 

icy. 

“I was just a bit curious,” Howard said with an awkward smile.

“Carry on. Carry on.” Cillian tried to mediate. 

“You guys carry on. I’m going to the restroom.”

Lenora glanced at everyone present, then calmly stood up. She left the room without further ado. 

Her figure vanished behind the door, leaving the private room in a momentary silence. The atmosphere instantly became oppressive. 

Ezekiel’s face suddenly darkened, his eyes intensely fixed on Howard. In a deep voice, he said, “Howard, have you lost your mind? 

Howard’s expression subtly shifted as he began to explain, “Ezekiel, I’m doing all this for your own good. Don’t you see? Lenora is manipulative. She’s been with Zachary, but she’s too afraid to admit it, fearing i might tarnish her image in front of you.” 

regard Oswald Murray hesitated for a moment before saying, “Ezekiel, in fact, Howard has a point. If you Lenora as a student, there’s nothing wrong with that. But if you have other intentions… Even if Lenora has been married once before, it doesn’t really matter. She’s just an adopted daughter of the Fuller family. With the old patriarch of the Fuller family gone, and Old Mrs. Fuller not interfering in affairs, and Zachary not fond of her, she won’t have any support. Essentially, she’s of no use… 

“Indeed, Ezekiel. I hope you’ll give it serious thought,” said Robin Harland. 

“Everything you’ve said… I can judge for myself. There’s no need for your interference.” Ezekiel’s gaze swept over them. “If you don’t accept her, you don’t have to come next time. However, if I ever hear such words again, don’t blame me for turning hostile.” 

Ezekiel would never force his friends to accept Lenora, nor would he alienate his friends for the sake of Lenora. 

If he found them displeasing to the eye, he could have simply avoided them. But since he chose to meet them, he needed to maintain a decent facade.
