Chapter 1213: 1209 You Reap What You Sow

1209 You Reap What You Sow

The couple, who had been extremely loving in front of everyone earlier, was now like arch-enemies.

After receiving the sudden scolding from Vanessa, Peter had all kinds of expressions on his face.

He was hopping mad after Vanessa’s scolding, especially when she said that he sponged off women and depended on the Williams for everything. This remark really bruised his ego, and he felt like his pride was trampled on.

Any man with a little backbone definitely wouldn’t be able to tolerate this humiliation. They would surely feel ashamed or lose their temper.

But Peter didn’t reveal his anger because he didn’t dare to lose his temper at Vanessa.

He was an out-and-out leech who sponged off women, and he didn’t have the backbone to challenge the Williams at all.

On the contrary, Peter felt immense fear.

Vanessa obviously wanted to draw a line between him and her and the Williams. How could he allow this?

“Vanessa… I-I didn’t know things would turn out like this. You… you’re right. I managed to get everything I have now by relying on you and the Williams, but I really never thought of causing this disaster to the Williams!

“Vanessa, you’re my wife. Didn’t we agree that we would love each other until death does us part? You can’t abandon me now! If even you ignore me, I’ll really have no way out!

“On account that I’ve treated you well all these years and that we’re married, please save me. I really don’t want to die!”

Peter begged in agony while hugging Vanessa’s waist.

At this moment, he had long lost his proud appearance and had horror all over his face as he held onto Vanessa desperately like a dog about to be abandoned.

Peter was well aware that he had offended Ashley and Lucas because of his misjudgment. As a result, even the Williams were in hot soup, let alone him.

But he was just a live-in husband who relied on the Williams. He had no real skills or any other backers. The only straw he could clutch to was Vanessa.

At this point, the Williams were the only ones who could save him. He thought that if he played the emotional card with Vanessa and reminded her of their marriage, she might help him.

Without the Williams, a small fry like him would only end up dying!

Although Lucas sounded extremely brutal, Peter didn’t believe that he could destroy the Williams alone.

So no matter what, he had to hold on tight to the Williams!

“Get lost!” Vanessa pushed Peter away and slapped him hard in exasperation.

Many couples tended to fend for themselves and leave each other during tough times.

If it wasn’t because of Peter, Vanessa and the Williams wouldn’t be facing this ordeal. Now that they were already in dire straits, they obviously couldn’t be bothered about Peter’s survival since he was the culprit.

After pushing Peter away with all her might, Vanessa immediately said to Lucas anxiously, “Lucas, it was my fault for what happened today. I shouldn’t have offended you because of this bastard Peter. If it wasn’t because he was insane and wanted to take revenge on Ashley and lied to me all this while, I wouldn’t have offended you since there’s no feud between us. Don’t you agree?”

“You… you’re such a powerful man. You must be able to understand who the real culprit is. I’ve indeed made a mistake and offended you, and I’ll agree to any punishment you subject me to. I was indeed too foolish and condescending, but… I don’t think that warrants death, right?”

Vanessa begged Lucas with tears in her eyes.

She didn’t want to die no matter what!

Rayson hurriedly said, “That’s right, Mr. Gray. My daughter indeed made a mistake, but she didn’t know your identity. She shouldn’t have offended you or been so disrespectful to you. I will teach her a lesson and ensure she doesn’t repeat the same mistake!

“But the real culprit is this bastard Peter. In fact, I never liked this good-for-nothing, but my daughter was deceived by him and insisted on marrying him, so I…

“But Vanessa has already seen his true colors and has decided to divorce him. So from now on, this good-for-nothing has nothing to do with the Williams. You can do whatever you want with him!”

Rayson drew a clear line between the Williams and Peter.

At the same time, the others in the private room frantically said one after another, “Mr. Gray, we… we were wrong. Actually, we had no feud with you. We didn’t even know each other before. If Peter hadn’t fooled us and instigated us, we definitely wouldn’t have targeted you and Ashley!”

“Yeah! Speaking of which, Ashley was our classmate for four years in college, and we were very close back then. Why would we go against you? It’s all because Peter sowed discord!”

“Yeah, in fact, Peter said those things to make us target you and Ashley. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have done so without any rhyme or reason! Please let us off this once and have mercy on us!”

…

The former classmates, who had spoken harshly to Ashley and Lucas to flatter Peter earlier, were now shunning Peter like the plague and putting the blame on him by claiming that their previous actions were under Peter’s instructions.

At this moment, they no longer looked at Peter deferentially. Instead, their eyes were full of resentment.

If it wasn’t to please Peter and Vanessa, they wouldn’t have offended the terrifying Lucas and ended up in this plight where they didn’t know whether or not they could leave safely.

The more they had tried to curry favor with Peter just now, the more they hated him now. At this point, they wished they could rush forward and beat the living daylights out of him.

It was only natural for them to feel this way.

Those who had tried every way to get into Peter’s good books earlier were all spineless and thick-skinned mercenary snobs who only cared about their own profits. In the face of a crisis, they would naturally try their best to shirk responsibility and put all the blame on others for their wrongdoings in order to get away scot-free.

But this dog-eat-dog situation was just the consequences that Peter had brought upon himself.
