The Heiress’ Return Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call (Wynter Quinnell) novel Chapter 887

Chapter 887 Some Deserved to Be Punished 

Ethel panicked too. She went up to Leanne. “Leanne, please say something. You know what Mary is like. She’s just direct. She means no harm. Seeing how I’ve been always kind to you all, could you- 

Budd quickly interrupted her. “No. Mrs. Klerson, no one can forgive anyone on Dulcie’s behalf. Not even 

me.” 

Budd crossed his hands across his chest. “You said you’ve treated us kindly. You know my wife’s character well, but you complicitly allowed your son’s behavior to go on. You were a part of the neighborhood’s gossip too, Mrs. Kierson.” 

Ethel initially thought that it was Leanne who was seducing her son. However, once she saw what happened, she realized that it was her useless son who was at fault. So, she thought of treating the Wilson family better to avoid any escalation of conflict. 

If Leanne were to tell the others, her son’s image and his job would surely be affected. 

She had merely insinuated to the neighbors that Leanne was at fault, seeing how she was from a different town and knew how to dress up. She never thought that the rumors would go so far. 

Ethel regretted it very much, but she had no choice. She had to protect her son. 

Leanne’s eyes widened in shock. “Mrs. Kierson, were you the one spreading rumors about me in the neighborhood?” 

Leane took a step back. She felt as if this was the first time she truly knew who Ethel was. 

Ethel was usually the one keeping them up to date about the neighborhood. Whenever people were bullying Leanne, it was she who got them to leave. Yet, this person was the culprit who started it all! 

Even Mary looked at Ethel in surprise. “Mom, you…” 

“I was doing it for the family!” Ethel said through gritted teeth. “My son is useless, but you don’t know how to keep your man in check either!” 

Then, Ethel looked at Leanne and pleaded with her. “Leanne, he really isn’t someone evil. He just has a small problem. But which man on this earth isn’t lustful, right? The first day you moved in, I reminded you to wear more layers during the summer. 

“Leanne, it’s all my fault. Please don’t let your friends spread this around. Not only my son will be mocked, but you two will also be talked about. Think about Dulcie. She-” 

“I will seek justice for my daughter!” Leanne, who was usually good–tempered, yelled at Ethel. She looked ruthless with her reddened eyes and messy hair. 

“If the court doesn’t help me, I’ll do it on my own! Even if it means killing someone and ending up in prison! 

Ethel was frightened by Leanne’s reaction. She froze to the spot. “Why are you doing this, Leanne? Why do you want to blow things up? My son has flirted with you, yes, but he has never once succeeded.”

“Heh.” Wynter snickered as if she had just heard a joke. She looked at Ethel as if she was looking at a 

rotting corpse. 

Her voice was calm but oddly chilly. “Your family is truly hopeless. No wonder your son is that way, Turnst out, it’s because he has a mother like you protecting him. 

“Since you like to de–escalate things, I’ll let you have a good chat with the police. Let’s see if your son can still keep his image and his job then.”
