Chapter 1683


    Charles’ words were solid and powerful, and the entire room fell silent almost immediately.


    Pin-drop silence.


    Not only were Heather and Malcolm surprised, but even Joshua and Luna’s faces were etched with


    shock.


    Jim was the only person without a single hint of surprise on his face. He was still leaning against his


    seat gracefully as he sipped his drink.


    Luna bit her lip, ncing at him, and asked in a low voice, ” What’s going on, Jim?”


    Jim put down his ss with a smile on his face and shot her a knowing look. “Just watch the show.”


    Luna chewed her lip.


    It seemed that Jim had already known what Charles was going to say, which was why he had


    persuaded her over and over again to attend the wedding tonight and even dress up for it.


    However, Luna had never expected that…


    Charles, who had always adored Heather, would announce kicking her out of the family at such an


    asion.


    As soon as she thought of this, Luna lifted her head to nce at Charles.


    At the same time, Charles was staring straight at her.


    Their gazes met, and a hint of gentleness shed through Charles’ otherwise solemn eyes.


    Luna froze for a split second, then quickly turned away.


    Meanwhile, onstage, Heather could not believe her ears.


    She bit her lip and quickly scampered over to Charles’ side. Then, she grabbed hold of his sleeve and


    asked in a low voice, “Father, did you… happen to say the wrong name out of nerves?


    “Isn’t the person who is supposed to be kicked out…Luna? Why did it suddenly be me?”


    Charles narrowed his eyes and nced at Heather coldly, a sneer ying on his lips.


    A momentter, he shrugged Heather off and continued in a cold voice, “I didn’t mix up any names; the


    person I am kicking out of the Landry family tonight is none other than Heather Landry!”


    He stared at the crowd before him calmly and exined, ” All of you may be confused as to why I’m


    kicking Heather out of the family at this time.


    “It was already very kind of me to wait until her wedding has ended so that she has a home to go back


    to after she’s kicked out. As for the reason I’m doing this…”


    With that, Charles pointed at the screen, which started disying the pictures of Heather and the men


    once more.


    “Firstly, her promiscuity has humiliated us and tarnished the reputation of the Landry family, and she


    even told every single one of the men she had slept with that she would let him be the future heir


    of the Landry family fortune. Because of this, I do not feel the need to keep this person by my side


    anymore.”


    Malcolm’s expression darkened as soon as he heard this.


    Charles was only Heather’s adoptive father, but Malcolm was her husband at this point!Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    When faced with the photos of Heather’s promiscuity just minutes ago, Malcolm did not say anything to


    object and instead admitted to being a cuckold because he hoped the Landry family would be able to


    save him.


    All of a sudden, Charles was saying that he did not feel the need to keep a person like Heather by his


    side.


    Was he implying that Malcolm willingly chose to have a wife like this?


    Not only was Charles implying that Malcolm had no standards, but he was also insulting the rest of the


    Quinn family!


    Even the Landry family, the people Heather had grown up with, could not stand her, so how could the


    Quinn family tolerate someone like this?


    Malcolm bit his lip and clenched his fists in anger, but he had no means of sticking up for himself.


    What was he supposed to say, anyway?


    Was he going to tell everyone that he had gone with everything that had happened simply because of


    money?


    Joshua could not help snickering when he saw how angry Malcolm looked and yet had no way of


    expressing it.


    He had clearly underestimated both Charles and Jim.
