Chapter 518
Lady Gill watched from afar as the three people stood at the doorway, tugging at each other. When she saw Mrs. Spencer slap Nara twice, she instantly became furious.

….
She marched over, her gaze passing over Mrs. Spencer and Gary, finally resting on Nara’s face. She then looked at Mrs. Spencer. “Why did you hit her?”

Mrs. Spencer, confused, was immediately startled. But she still said, “I just saw her loitering around the Gill family’s doorway, and she has offended Mr. Austin, hasn’t she? I was just trying to avenge you!”

How could Lady Gill believe her words? Her gaze swept over Gary’s face, where there was also a slap mark, so she asked, “Who hit you?”

Gary was perplexed, his eyes subconsciously shifting to Nara.

Lady Gill immediately looked at Nara. “Why did she hit you?”

It must be something Gary did to Nara! The anger in Lady Gill’s chest was already rising.

Gary was perplexed. Mrs. Spencer immediately looked at Nara. “Cousin, this girl just tried to use her beauty to seduce Gary. How shameless!”

Stunned, Nara looked at her incredulously and then angrily turned to Gary as if waiting for him to speak up in her defense.

Lady Gill frowned. “She seduced Gary?”

Mrs. Spencer immediately nodded. “Yes, she and Gary are from the same university. Back in the university days, she constantly chased after Gary. Just now, when she saw us at the doorway, she blocked us, trying to get me to plead with you on her behalf, to get the Gill family to let her off. I refused, and then she began to seduce Gary!”

Lady Gill’s gaze moved between Nara and Gary, then settled firmly on Gary, and she interrogated him. “What exactly is your relationship with her?”

Mrs. Spencer, eager to disassociate her son from Nara, said, “Of course, they have no relationship whatsoever! Lady Gill, you must believe me! Gary would certainly not fancy her! He likes Miss Gill. How could he possibly fancy a mute? And besides, she’s reeking of poverty! She’s filthy!”

Having said that, she took a step back.

But Lady Gill looked at Nara instead and said, “Nara, I want to hear your side of the story.”

Nara took out a piece of paper and a pen and was silent momentarily. She wanted to write that they were boyfriend and girlfriend but suddenly realized that none of it mattered anymore. Ultimately, she put down the paper.

Seeing this, Lady Gill then looked to Gary. “You tell me, then!”

Gary immediately swallowed hard. He looked frantically at Nara, then at Mrs. Spencer.

Mrs. Spencer immediately coughed. “Cousin, there’s nothing between them. They just attended the same university. My son is the student council’s president, so he has many admirers, but it’s all in her head! Gary, speak up! Tell Lady Gill right now about your relationship with this mute!”

Gary remained silent. Mrs. Spencer promptly pushed him and hissed angrily. “What are you doing? Do you want to ruin the entire Spencer family? You just agreed to a blind date with Miss Gill. If Lady Gill finds out you have a girlfriend, our family is finished!!”

Gary was in a panic. He looked at Nara and then at the imposing Lady Gill. Lady Gill’s face was livid at this moment, and her eyes seemed to spit fire as she glared at him.

Gary swallowed hard again. He thought of Austin’s bullying of him since childhood, his family, and how his mother was always bowing and scraping before Lady Gill. Gary looked toward Nara again.

Mrs. Spencer immediately whispered in a low voice, “Why do you still care about her? Do you want the entire Spencer family to be buried with you?!”

Gary clenched his fists, his eyes filled with guilt. He took a deep breath and slowly lowered his head under Nara’s gaze. “There’s nothing between us.”

Nara had anticipated his answer already. At this moment, the corners of her lips twitched weakly, pulling into a mocking smile. She stepped back and seemed drained of vitality. She let out only a bitter laugh. How could she have expected that the brave boy who once stood before her could become like this? He didn’t even dare to acknowledge her …

She looked down and forced a bitter smile.

Lady Gill seemed to have also realized something and stared at Gary again. “Are you sure?”

Gary nodded immediately. “I’m sure! I’m not involved with her! Whatever the Gill family wants to do with her has nothing to do with me!”

Leaving these words behind, he turned and walked away!

Seeing Nara’s expression of utter despair, Lady Gill felt a sudden surge of anger from within. She, too, had lived through her younger years; how could she not understand what was happening right now?

She quickly stepped forward and slapped Gary across the face. “Say it again, I dare you! You have nothing to do with her?!”

Her daughter… Nara was the daughter she had treasured since she was a baby!

How could she be so mistreated at university? Lady Gill was trembling with rage.

Gary was stunned by the slap, looking at her in confusion.

Mrs. Spencer, however, thought Lady Gill was angry because she recognized a special relationship between the two young people, which upset her since Gary was supposed to marry Miss Gill. She immediately stepped forward and swore, “Cousin, they have nothing to do with each other, I swear! Gary only has Miss Gill in his heart! We just agreed to let Gary and Miss Gill meet. Please believe us! This little slut has a crush on Gary! It really has nothing to do with my son!”

Mrs. Spencer’s words only elicited a scornful laugh from Lady Gill. How could Lady Gill not realize, at this point, that Mrs. Spencer probably orchestrated the entire affair?

She recalled Gary’s reluctant face when he came to their home earlier. She had assumed Gary simply didn’t want to go on a blind date, as the idea repels many young people today.

She had also been perplexed as to why Nara, who originally had no desire to see them or visit the Gill family, suddenly sent a message saying she would come to meet her…

At this very moment, with the two of them standing before her and Mrs. Spencer pointing at Nara and scolding the girl while trying desperately to disassociate herself, how could Lady Gill not understand?

Lady Gill gave a cold laugh and said, “So, Gary and Nara are not in a relationship now and won’t be in one in the future either?”

Mrs. Spencer immediately nodded and stepped forward, trying to grasp Lady Gill’s arm. “Yes, yes, it’s nothing like that! Gary only has feelings for Miss Gill. How could he possibly be involved with a mute…”

But Lady Gill swiftly shook off her arm. “Then do you know who Nara is?”

Mrs. Spencer was taken aback, asking in confusion, “Who could she be? Isn’t she just a mute?”

Lady Gill’s expression turned icy as she snarled, “She is my daughter!!”
