Ch. 811..820

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 811-“Alright, I’m sorry then,” Roselynn responded in a somewhat apologetic tone.

Living in this house, she always felt like she was on unfamiliar ground. After making a symbolic apology, she continued, “I won’t have dinner tonight. I have no appetite. Enjoy your meal!” With that, she went to her room.

Lucy and the other servants held their breaths with lowered heads for a long time as they looked at Jennifer’s dark and furious expression.

“This is outrageous! Absolutely outrageous! We’ve really brought a tyrant into our home! I won’t eat anymore either!” Slam! After forcefully slamming the table once again, Jennifer prepared to leave, but Sebastian’s cold voice stopped her. “Stop right there! You keep complaining about other people, but have you ever respected the etiquette and rules of the Oatley family?!” As the head of the household, Sebastian’s authority at home was not to be challenged by anyone.

Just now, he had given Roselynn due respect because they were currently cooperating with Terence Group, considering the business interests. But Jennifer’s value as a wife had long been exhausted in his eyes. novelbin Though upset with Sebastian, Jennifer had long known that he was unreliable. She also understood that her status in this household was inferior to his. She had acted boldly just now because she was angry, but now that Sebastian redirected his anger toward her, she could only snort coldly and sit back down.

“Mom, Dad, let’s eat!” Jessica quickly tried to defuse the situation, her behavior and demeanor completely different from usual.

The Oatleys were strict when it came to family traditions, and the elders held absolute authority in the household. It was this dynamic that had shaped Jessica and Jaxton’s personalities, especially in the case of Jaxton. Because he couldn’t establish his position within the family, he often sought to feel superior outside. However, lacking the actual capability to do so, he often embarrassed himself. That had been quite evident on the day his true nature won revealed at the amusement park..

In the past, he had thought that when he married a wife and brought her home, he would establish his authority within the family. That was why he had chosen Roselynn, who had looks and a figure but lacked a prominent family background. Yet, little did he know that her background was unexpectedly strong. Now, he realized that even straightening his spine seemed difficult.

The atmosphere remained heavy and tense during dinner, and it ended similarly, Jaxton never said a word throughout, and he returned to his room.

filled with resentment.

As for his wife?

She refused to share a room with him, no matter what. Jaxton felt utterly powerless as a man. He believed he had hit rock bottom.

Knock, knock.

Suddenly, a knock came at his door, and Jaxton’s eyes lit up, believing his wife had now finally returned to sleep in his room.

With that, he got up eagerly, only to be disappointed after answering the door.

“Oh, Mom, it’s you.” Like mother, like son. Jennifer sneered upon seeing Jaxton’s expression. “What, did you think I was Lowe?” “Sigh…” Jaxton let out a deep sigh and sat dejectedly on a chair.

Though there was a hierarchical distinction between mother and son in public, when they were alone, their bond as mother and son was evident.

After all, he was Jennifer’s only son.

“Honestly, Jaxton, as a grown man, are you really going to let that woman run wild in our home? You need to assert yourself as a husband!” “Assert myself? How do you expect me to do that? The agreements have all been signed. Do you think I can mess with her? What’s there to assert?” Jaxton was both frustrated and angry.

“You idiot! Do you really think the legal effect of those agreements outweighs the country’s marriage laws?” Jennifer’s words piqued Jaxton’s interest. “Mom, do you have a plan?”

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 812-“Hmph, I originally didn’t want to resort to these methods, but since you’re so helpless yourself…” Jennifer said proudly, sitting next to her son. Right outside, Lucy was cleaning the hallway, and Jennifer forgot to close the door after entering, leaving a crack. Lucy had no intention of eavesdropping on the conversation of the mistress, but as she walked by, she happened to hear the voices inside. “Later, I’ll have a servant give her a bowl of soup. After drinking it, she will go into heat tonight! Then, you can take advantage of the situation and sleep with her!” “Mom, is this really a good idea? Roselynn isn’t an idiot. She’ll kill me when she wakes up tomorrow!” Jaxton was somewhat afraid of his wife. She might behave infatuatedly sometimes, but she was definitely skilled when it came to arguing and fighting. He stood no chance against her. “Be rough with her tonight, then. Also, record a video as evidence. It’ll eventually come in handy someday…” Lucy was utterly astonished by what she overheard. The madam always presented herself as a well-mannered and educated woman. Who would’ve thought she would say such things?! Is this what they call ‘two-faced?’ “Alright, Mom! I’ll follow your plan tonight!” Jaxton was now quite intrigued by Jennifer’s words. He had long wanted to be intimate with Roselynn, and worst of all, they had never done anything substantial even when they were dating, let alone now. If people found out about this, he would be the laughingstock for the rest of his life! “Lucy!” Jennifer called for Lucy after exiting Jaxton’s room. “Huh?! Y-Yes, Madam. I’m here!” Lucy hurriedly approached from a distance, pretending she hadn’t heard anything earlier. “Roselynn hasn’t had dinner tonight. I’m worried she might be hungry. Go make some soup for me, and I’ll bring it to her later!” “Yes, Madam!” Lucy nodded and went to do as instructed. Over an hour later, she nervously came to inform Jennifer. “Madam, the soup is ready!” “Alright, I’ll go take a look.” Jennifer rarely entered the kitchen. If Lucy hadn’t known her plan beforehand, she would’ve been surprised. However, she just kept her head down and entered the kitchen alongside Jennifer. “Go check if Roselynn is in her room. Then, come back and tell me.” “Yes, Madam!” After leaving Jennifer’s sight, Lucy rushed into Roselynn’s room in a fluster. Surprised by the unexpected visitor, Roselynn went to check only to find it was Lucy. Immediately, she asked, “What’s wrong? You don’t look so good. Have you fallen ill?” Roselynn didn’t come from a wealthy background. After arriving at the Oatley residence, she didn’t even have anyone to talk to, so her relationship with Lucy was one of the best she had. Lucy initially feared Jennifer’s tyranny but was moved by Roselynn’s concern. She gritted her teeth and directly told her, “Young Madam, Madam will ask me to bring you soup later. Remember, don’t drink it, or you’ll really regret it!” “What?” Roselynn wanted to ask for more details, but Lucy had already hurriedly rushed back to the kitchen. Sure enough, not long after, Jennifer, accompanied by Lucy, personally went to Roselynn’s room. “Can I help you with something, Jaxton’s mom?” Roselynn pretended to know nothing, wearing a blank expression as she asked. Jennifer’s anger surged within her again. This woman. How dare she still address me like this when she’s already married into our family?! It’s obvious she has no intentions of really integrating into this family! Still, Jennifer went against her usual behavior and forced a smile. “Roselynn, though we don’t get along as well as I would like, you’re still my daughter-in-law regardless. Now that you’re married into our family, it’s my responsibility as a mother-in-law to take care of you…”

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 813-If Lucy hadn’t revealed the secret to her earlier, Roselynn would’ve thought Jennifer had gone mad upon hearing those words.

The soup was absolutely not to be consumed, but outright refusal without evidence would make it difficult to corner this mother-son pair. Ultimately, if suspicions arose, it would be Lucy who would suffer the consequences.

Roselynn wasn’t foolish. She responded with an enigmatic smile and said, “Jaxton’s mom, hearing you say that, I almost thought you had a wire loose in your head! Who’d have thought you’re actually so sweet?!” Jennifer’s lips twitched. What does she mean by “actually so sweet?” Does this woman think of her as some scheming, wicked mother-in-law?! This is absolutely preposterous!

Despite being livid, Jennifer forced a smile and said, “Roselynn, our conflicts are just about family rules. As long as you behave well, I will definitely treat you well! Come, you haven’t had your dinner tonight, so I especially had the servant make you some soup. Drink it while it’s hot…” With a single glance, Lucy handed the bowl of soup to Roselynn.

“Set it aside for now. I’m not hungry yet,” Roselynn replied calmly. However, Jennifer’s mission was yet to be completed; there was no way she would walk away just like that.

She had Lucy serve a small bowl of soup and personally handed it to Roselynn, saying, “Soup is best enjoyed hot. Come, have some!” With Jennifer being this accommodating, it was up to Roselynn whether she dared to refuse.

In truth, it wasn’t that Roselynn didn’t dare; she simply couldn’t. If she knocked the bowl over now, it would prove that Lucy had warned her in advance, novelbin which would ultimately harm the poor servant. So, she had no choice but to accept the bowl and take a small sip.

“Enjoy your soup. I’ll take my leave!” Jennifer smiled.

Naturally, she had been maintaining a facade in front of Roselynn all this while, and even she could hardly contain herself. Upon seeing that Roselynn had taken a small sip of the soup, she left at once.

After the door closed, Roselynn quickly spat out the soup.

“Hmph, trying to harm me? It won’t be so easy!” Roselynn was both shocked and furious. The idea of a mother-in-law drugging her daughter-in-law was unheard of!

“How can I continue living in a family like this?!” She was deeply troubled. With Claudette gone, she had no one to confide in about her frustrations. After thinking it through, she could only call her younger brother.

At this moment, Emmanuel had just arrived home with his wife. When he received Roselynn’s call, he was equally shocked and concerned.

“What? You said your mother-in-law drugged you? That’s insane!” w “Yeah! What should I do now, Manny? Jaxton will definitely come to force himself on me later!” Roselynn expressed her concerns.

She had pretended to be under the influence. Unless something unexpected happened, Jaxton would likely burst into her room any time soon.

“Don’t worry, sis. I’ll head to the Oatley residence right away to save you!” Emmanuel couldn’t ignore his only sister. He couldn’t let Jaxton Oatley do whatever he pleased, even if he was her legal husband.

“What’s wrong? Is someone from the Oatley family causing trouble for your sister?” Mackenzie happened to be nearby and overheard the conversation.

She, too, appeared quite angry.

As a woman, she could deeply empathize with Roselynn’s pain.

She hadn’t wanted to marry Emmanuel at first, but she was lucky that he, her legal husband, had never taken advantage of her.

However, Roselynn wasn’t so lucky. She was now in the lion’s den, and preserving herself was becoming exceedingly difficult.

“Yes! Mackenzie, I have to go to my sister right away. I can’t leave her alone and defenseless!” Emmanuel said anxiously.

It was a three-hour drive from here to the Oatley residence, and he worried he wouldn’t make it in time.

“I’ll go with you.” Mackenzie thought for a moment before making her decision.

Although the Quillen family was currently in a predicament, the Oatleys still feared her and hoped to gain benefits from her family. So, as long as she interfered, the Oatleys wouldn’t dare touch Roselynn.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 814-Emmanuel didn’t waste any time and immediately set out with Mackenzie.

On the other side, Roselynn’ was alone in her room, feeling anxious and restless.

Knock knock.

Sure enough, not long after, someone came knocking on the door.

“Honey!” Jaxton called out softly, his voice sounding a bit different than usual, obviously testing the waters.

Roselynn felt a little nervous. After all, she knew she was in unfamiliar territory at this moment and facing not only Jaxton as the enemy.

At first, she pretended not to hear at first, but Jaxton’s voice grew louder and louder behind the door, obviously unable to keep up the act.

“What are you doing? I’m going to sleep!” Roselynn replied, albeit reluctantly.

“So early? It’s not even 10 o’clock at night yet.” Jaxton half-believed, also puzzled. Has she taken the philter or not? If she did, it would’ve taken effect by now.

“Yeah, I’m getting my beauty sleep. Don’t bother me!” Roselynn wanted to avoid any more pointless conversations and just get through the night and deal with everything else the next day.

“Fine!” Jaxton agreed verbally, but his eyes were filled with anger.

His tolerance for this woman had reached its limit. It was one thing not to let him touch her on regular days, but this very night, did he still not have the right to do so? Was he not her legal husband?!

He turned to look for the spare key to forcefully open Roselynn’s room door when he coincidentally ran into Jennifer midway.

“Mom, did you make her take the drug or not?” “Weird, I clearly saw her drink it. Could it be that she drank too little, so the effects aren’t strong enough?” “Forget it. I don’t care anymore! Tonight, no matter what, I’m going to conquer her! I want her to understand that I am her. man, not just a lapdog by her side!” Jaxton exclaimed angrily.

His loud voice attracted Jessica, who was unaware of the situation, to come over as well. Both Jennifer and Jessica were pleased to see Jaxton like this.

They had long felt that Jaxton needed to assert his authority. Otherwise, his wife would be stepping all over him.

“Go, Jax, I’ll guard the door for you!” Jessica handed him the spare key and encouraged him.

As for Jennifer, she directly ordered all the household staff to leave, not allowing them to stay in the villa for the night.

Before leaving, Lucy looked back and sighed deeply. Please let Young Madam be safe. To think a supposedly proud family like this one will do something like this.

“Honey! Honey!” After obtaining the spare key, Jaxton didn’t immediately open the door.

Instead, he continued to call out a couple of times from outside tentatively.

If Roselynn had really taken the philter, she wouldn’t have been able to fall asleep at all. But unexpectedly, there was no response from inside.

Roselynn also knew that she couldn’t avoid this any longer. She quickly went to open the window, even contemplating the idea of jumping from the second floor.

Click!

Before she could jump out of the window, Jaxton already opened the door. novelbin “Honey, what are you doing? Why didn’t you answer me?” Jaxton immediately turned grim when he saw that Roselynn wasn’t sleeping but had opened the window and was looking outside.

This woman is so cunning; she hadn’t drunk the soup after all!

Barging Into Roselynn’s Room “What… What are you trying to do? Who gave you permission to barge into my room? Have you no shame to forcefully open a woman’s room door?! Get out!” Roselynn rebuked coldly.

Jaxton, who was already at the end of his patience, couldn’t control his anger any longer after hearing her words.

 

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 815-“Ashamed? What do I have to be ashamed of? I’m your husband! Who can say anything about me for coming into my wife’s room?!” Roselynn couldn’t help but feel a little scared at Jaxton’s emotional outburst.

While she knew this man was a coward, provoking him in this situation might not be the wisest choice.

“Alright, I won’t blame you anymore. Just go out. I really want to sleep!” Roselynn softened her tone, taking a step back. Little did she expect that Jaxton wouldn’t heed her words at all; he continued to stand in her way.

“What do you want?” Roselynn couldn’t help but get agitated.

“What do I want? I want to do what a husband and wife do, of course! Do you know how long I’ve been holding back? I’m about to go crazy from holding it all in! I’m going to conquer you tonight, you arrogant b*tch!” Jaxton roared angrily, suddenly embracing Roselynn and attempting to kiss her.

“You-Get away from me!” Roselynn shoved him away.

Jaxton hadn’t expected her to be so strong. Caught off guard, he was pushed to the ground, and he fell quite hard.

“Jax!” Both Jennifer and Jessica appeared at the door simultaneously, stunned by what they saw.

They had known that Roselynn wasn’t weak, but they never expected that Jaxton, a grown man, couldn’t handle her!

“I’m fine! Get out!” Jaxton’s pride was instantly inflamed when he saw his mother and sister, and he roared, “I can handle my woman myself! I will tame her myself!” His bloodshot eyes scared Jennifer and Jessica a little, and they could only nod and close the door for him.

Locked!

Now, the woman inside wouldn’t be able to escape tonight!

“Jaxton, w-what are you trying? Get out!” Roselynn instinctively stepped back as Jaxton, with bloodshot eyes, approached her slowly. “Have you forgotten the agreement we signed? I don’t want this, and neither of you can force me!” “How dare you still bring that agreement up, you fcking btch! Haven’t you humiliated me enough, huh?!” Jaxton had already decided to throw caution to the wind. He completely ignored whatever Roselynn was saying, and as he walked closer, he picked up the bowl of soup. “This is the soup my mother personally made for you.

You have to drink it!” He also knew that it would be difficult to subdue Roselynn, this fiery mare, by force alone. He needed the aid of drugs. Once she drank the philter, she would crawl over him like a sl*t! novelbin “Y-You’re crazy!” Roselynn shoved him away again. If this guy thinks he can make me drink something, he’s dreaming!

“You wretched woman! I’ll make you regret this!” Jaxton was now utterly enraged and humiliated. He picked up the still-warm soup and splashed it on Roselynn’s face.

While avoiding the soup, Roselynn gave Jaxton an opening to tackle her to the ground.

Jaxton started to take off his clothes. However, he underestimated Roselynn.

Her legs were not only long but also strong. With a forceful kick, she used his momentum to throw him off once again.

Thud.

Jaxton accidentally bumped into the table, causing the desk lamp and water glass to crash to the ground with a series of clattering noises.

“Jaxton, are you okay?” The voices of the two women outside came again.

Why does it take so much effort for a grown man to deal with his wife?!

“I’m fine! Just get lost!” Jaxton’s pride had long been trampled into pieces, and he had utterly lost his rationality. “You wretched woman! I’ll kill you!” Jaxton grabbed a chair from under the table and wanted to smash it at Roselynn, who panicked at once and desperately dodged.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 816-Alas, the room was only that big. Roselynn was ultimately struck by Jaxton’s blow, falling under the table.

The pain was excruciating, and she thought she was going to fall apart.

“T’d like to see how you struggle now!” Jaxton began taking off his pants.

1/5 Roselynn had run out of options. With one hand, she quietly reached into the drawer, feeling around until her hand landed on a pair of scissors.

“Come on! Let me teach you how to be a woman!” Jaxton’s entire body was rigid and tense. He lunged at her, straddling Roselynn, thinking she was helpless and couldn’t resist. His hands began to wander as he was driven by excitement and anger, his eyes bloodshot, wild like a madman’s.

“Die!” But Roselynn was not an easy target. Faced with his madness and aggression, she didn’t hold back. She couldn’t let him have his way with her.

She thrust the scissors forward.

In the next moment, blood splattered on her face, causing her to shut her eyes as she felt waves of nausea instinctively.

“Ah! Ah!” Jaxton let out a series of agonizing screams as he clutched his lower abdomen, writhing on the ground in pain.

“Jax!” The two women outside couldn’t bear it any longer and burst into the room, only to be instantly shocked by what they saw.

“What… What have you done to Jax?” Jennifer stared at her son’s blood staining the floor, her eyes filled with anger as her lips trembled.

Jessica also exclaimed in outrage, “You… You crazy woman, did you emasculate my brother?! This is spousal murder! You’ll go to jail and face the death penalty! Put the scissors down now, or we’ll make you pay!” 1/5 “Don’t think you can scare me like that!” Roselynn wasn’t afraid of them either.

Holding the scissors in one hand, her gaze fierce like an enraged she-wolf.

“Come at me if you dare! You’re no match for me one by one, and I’m not.

afraid either if you all come at me together!” “This is madness, sheer madness!” Jennifer was at her wits’ end. However, there was nothing they could do about Roselynn at the moment.

The commotion had finally attracted Sebastian, who rushed in to see his son covered in blood. He didn’t care about anything else and hurried over to assess the situation.

“Jaxton! Jaxton!” At this point, Jaxton had already fainted from the pain, unable to respond to his father’s calls.

” “You bunch of crazy women, call an ambulance, or Jaxton will die!” Sebastian roared angrily.

Jennifer finally snapped back to reality, panic in her voice. “Jessica, quickly gody call the police!” “Huh? Oh! Okay!” Jessica rushed out of the room.

Roselynn still held the scissors, unwilling to let her guard down.

4/5 Sebastian looked at Roselynn, his tone icy as he said, “Can you get me some gauze? We need to stop Jaxton’s bleeding.” Only then did Roselynn cautiously open the drawer and find some gauze, gently tossing it over.

“You… Just you wait. You won’t get away with what you did to my son!” Jennifer left in a frenzy. She couldn’t swallow this insult. Roselynn had so severely harmed Jaxton that their family might not be able to continue their lineage.

Roselynn looked at the crazed woman leaving, her heart pounding with anxiety. She thought about leaving the Oatley residence overnight, or who knew what consequences she might face?!

Sebastian understood the gravity of the situation. He didn’t have time to deal with the women in the house. Right now, his priority was to tend to his son’s wounds urgently. It seemed that Jaxton’s ability to have children in the future was at stake. novelbin Although the Oatleys weren’t a prominent aristocratic family, a single urgent call from Jennifer could still summon a number of people instantly.

As Roselynn hurriedly made her way downstairs to the hall, she found several burly men rushing in.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 817-“Jennifer, what happened?” 1/5 SM 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.

2/5 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 “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.

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?!

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! novelbin “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.

 

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 818-“M-Ms. Quillen?” Silas thought he was seeing things when he saw Mackenzie.

The heiress of the Quillen family actually appeared in the Oatley residence in the middle of the night? What’s going on?!

Seeing Mackenzie, he looked as if a mouse had encountered a cat. The three Oatley women were also gnashing their teeth, appearing frustrated and helpless.

“What do you intend to do to Roselynn?” Seeing the scene before her, Mackenzie quirked her brow slightly, exuding an unbearable cold pressure. novelbin “W-We haven’t done anything to her.” Silas quickly forced a smile and waved his hand.

Knowing that Silas couldn’t be depended on anymore, Jennifer gritted her teeth and said, “Roselynn stabbed my son. We will make her pay for sure! If you want to interfere, don’t blame us for being rude to you!” Unfazed by her fierce appearance, Mackenzle coldly chuckled, “Would Roselynn have done that if your son hadn’t done anything to her?” “You-” Jennifer was already furious, and now unable to argue her point, she saw Mackenzie’s followers pouring into the Oatley residence. With resolve, shel shouted, “Guards, arrest these three!” Silas immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Jennifer was acting recklessly.

The woman in front of them was the heiress of the Quillen family, for heaven’s sake!

Alas, ignorance was bliss indeed.

She was courting death, and they didn’t want to accompany her.

“Stop!” Sebastian descended the second-floor staircase in the critical moment, halting everyone. His hands were both bloody, a horrifying sight.

Ms. Quillen, this is our family matter. Please don’t interfere!” Sebastian’s mind was everywhere. He couldn’t let Roselynn go after seeing his son’s condition, but he also couldn’t afford to antagonize Mackenzie, especially since their families had just negotiated a coop

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 819-“Yes, I indeed have no right to interfere in your family’s matters, nor do I want 1. However, Roselynn is my husband’s sister. I can’t stand by and watch her suffer!” Mackenzie was adept at her words, and the phrase “can’t stand by and watch her suffer” left the Oatleys momentarily speechless.

Roselynn was deeply grateful. Her brother had truly married an extraordinary wife! Besides her stunning looks, she also protected her family so dearly. If her brother didn’t cherish such a wife, he truly deserved the worst fate imaginable!

At this time, the sound of an ambulance outside provided both sides some time to calm down.

Medical personnel quickly used a stretcher to carry Jaxton, whose lower body was soaked in blood, and placed him into the ambulance.

“Son! Jaxton! Stay strong!

“You must save my son’s life!” *

Jennifer cried to the medical staff with tears and snot, then turned around fiercely, hysterically shouting, “See that? You all saw that, didn’t you?! Look at what this wicked woman has done to my son. She’s not going anywhere tonight! She must pay for this!” A woman going crazy was terrifying and also the most irrational. If Silas hadn’t firmly held her back, she would’ve rushed over and fought Roselynn.

“I advise you not to lay another hand, or you’ll definitely regret it!” Emmanuel quickly positioned himself in front of Mackenzie, unafraid of the many members of the Oatley family. The two women behind him were his most beloved, and he wouldn’t let anyone harm them even slightly.

Mackenzie, of course, was also unafraid, paying no attention to the crazed Jennifer. She just looked up at Sebastian and said, “Mr. Oatley, you’re the decision-maker in this family. If I want to take Roselynn away now, will you stop me?” novelbin Sebastian’s face shifted with uncertain darkness.

All eyes were on him, and the pressure felt immense.

Mackenzie and Emmanuel could leave at any time, but where would his pride lay if he dared not pursue the matter and even let Roselynn go? How could he explain to his wife and children?

“Mr. Oatley, I regret what happened in your family today. If you’re still sincere about cooperating with Terence Group, I can give you a 5% discount!” With her perceptive gaze, Mackenzie naturally knew Sebastian’s current predicament and mindset. She immediately provided him with an out.

“Thank you, Ms. Quillen. The Oatley family is definitely sincere about cooperating with Terence Group!” Sebastian quickly expressed his stance.

Facing off Mackenzie was beyond his capacity and courage. Naturally, he went along with the path she paved.

“In that case, goodbye!” Mackenzie wasted no more time and immediately left.

Her chilling and formidable aura and Emmanuel’s protection allowed the three of them to pass through unobstructed.

“Sebastian! Have you gone mad? Are you really going to let that woman leave? Are you still a man? You coward!” Jennifer redirected her overflowing anger toward her husband when she saw the three leaving their house unscathed.

“Shut up!” Sebastian reprimanded her coldly.

Silas didn’t dare to interrupt. He could only say, “Sebastian, Jennifer, it’s getting late. I won’t disturb you any longer. I’ll head back now!” With that, he left with his entourage.

ww “Sigh, such a family tragedy!” Selina couldn’t help but feel a bit of schadenfreude as she commented before leaving with her father.

Gradually, others left as well.

Inside the villa, only Sebastian and his family of three remained.

“Jessica, go and check on your brother’s condition. Let me know the doctor’s diagnosis as soon as possible!” “Okay, Dad.” Jessica didn’t want to stay at home that night either, avoiding having to pick sides between her parents.

She could understand both her parent’s viewpoints. One was protecting their son, and the other was safeguarding their interests. Neither of them was wrong, right?

In the spacious villa, only the husband and wife remained, and Sebastian instructed Jennifer sternly, “You, come into the room!” Jennifer gnashed her teeth, tidied her disheveled waves of hair, and followed Sebastian into their room, waiting to see what the man was up to.

“Go take a shower!” Sebastian ordered despite the hint of disdain lacing eyes as he watched his wife enter.

Then, he fetched a medicine bottle from a drawer and reluctantly swallowed a few pills.

“You… Have you gone mad?!” Jennifer knew what those pills were-sildenafil.

After contemplating for a moment, she looked at him with contempt and scolded, “Sebastian, you’re truly a coward! An utterly useless man! Our son was stabbed by a woman, and instead of avenging him, you want to vent your frustrations on your wife?! Are you even capable? How many years has it been since we slept together?” “Shut up!” Sebastian was already in a bad mood because of his son’s embarrassing incident. Yet, this woman kept blabbering in his ear, making him increasingly grim and annoyed by the second. At that, he shoved her onto the bed.

The more he acted this way, the more Jennifer refused to keep quiet. She even became more agitated as she continued, “Why should I shut up? With a father like you, Jax is truly pitiful! What’s the point of earning so much money?

The Oatley family is going to end with you-” Slap!

Sebastian finally couldn’t bear it anymore and slapped her hard across the face.

For a moment, Jennifer felt dizzy and disoriented, her eyes filled with shock and anger.

After being married to this man for over thirty years, this was truly the first time she had experienced such treatment.

“I told you to shut up, so shut up! Why are you blabbering so much? Do you think you’re clever? You’re the dumbest one of all!

“We’re in a life-and-death struggle with the Quillen family now. What can we gain from it? If we make a big fuss, not only will we lose our business, but we might even go bankrupt!

“Can our son go back to how he used to be then? Not only would we have nothing left, but we wouldn’t even have a decent life for the rest of our lives.

Do you understand, you foolish woman?”

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 820-The stern lecture finally shut Jennifer up.

As the saying stated, “Might makes right!” In this world, the strong dictated the terms. If Jennifer didn’t understand this principle, she wouldn’t have acted so pompously in front of those weaker than the Oatleys for so many years.

Seeing her silent, Sebastian let out a long sigh. “This one’s a goner. Go take a shower quickly and see if we can still create a replacement.” As a father, he was actually disappointed in Jaxton’s abilities.

Unfortunately, he had been too obsessed with making money when he was young and never had another son. Now that things had come to this, he could only take a gamble.

Jennifer complied to an extent. After all, her husband hadn’t touched her in years, and she was much younger than Sebastian. There were still those desires present.

By the time she came out of the shower, the effects of the drug Sebastian had taken were beginning to show. Regrettably, he was already quite old, so no matter how hard he tried, he found himself lacking the vigor. He could only sigh in resignation.

On the other side, Emmanuel drove his sister and wife home.

“So, what are your plans next, Roselynn?” Emmanuel was the first to break the silence.

Roselynn remained silent for a while before responding, “I’ll rent a place to stay for now. I’m afraid if I go home, Mom will find out about this. Her health can’t handle the stress.” Despite understanding his sister’s concerns, Emmanuel still reminded, “You can’t hide the truth forever. Mom will eventually learn about it.” Of course, Roselynn also knew that, but for now, she could only take it one step at a time.

After a brief silence between the siblings, Mackenzie spoke up, “Roselynn, I have two suggestions for you: first, divorce Jaxton immediately. Then, either quickly establish your own career or find another suitable man. As long as you live a happy and comfortable life, Mom won’t worry about you!” Roselynn was stunned.

A smile appeared on Emmanuel’s lips. He couldn’t help but admire novelbin Mackenzie’s wisdom and insight.

Alessandra’s concern for Roselynn was primarily about the insurance of her future. Of course, any mother would be worried, given her unemployment and divorce.

If Roselynn could find happiness after leaving Jaxton, or at least not have to worry about her future, Alessandra would naturally feel relieved.

“You’re absolutely right, Mackenzie! But the two things you mentioned aren’t easy…” Roselynn wasn’t lacking in confidence, but love and entrepreneurship couldn’t be achieved with confidence alone.

“I can help you!” Emmanuel and Mackenzie blurted almost simultaneously.

At that, the two glanced at each other.

Emmanuel smiled while Mackenzie snorted intentionally and turned her face away.

Roselynn felt rather aggrieved. She was here feeling down, yet they made her witness PDA. Is this really appropriate?

“I’ll help Roselynn figure out her career, Mackenzie. You know a lot of fine men.

If you want to help my sister, you can introduce her to someone,” Emmanuel suggested, making Mackenzie snort coldly again, for he had stolen another of her lines.

But as many thoughts as she had, she still added icily, “Hmph, I can help Roselynn if she needs funding and connections for her business, but I won’t play matchmaker!” “Alright, I’ll take care of these two things then!” Emmanuel confidently took on the tasks and continued, “I’ll turn to you if I can’t manage. You don’t have to worry about my sister for now.” He knew that Mackenzie had enough to worry about lately and didn’t want to burden her further.

“Idiot!” Mackenzie cursed softly. How could she not care about her sister-in-law’s affairs? Not only that, she quietly instructed Wally to help deliver a set of house keys immediately. Roselynn couldn’t return home for the time being. She couldn’t let her rent a place all alone, right?
