Jared subtly frowned, then shouted sternly, “Shut up!”

Looking at his liability of a brother, I feel a headache coming on. This idiot can’t even pick up a simple hint from my eyes. He’s truly dense!
Sean’s narrow eyes swept over them, his gaze sharp and profound, “You are helping a stepsister steal your own sister’s husband, and you actually think you’re noble?”
Jared: “…”
He was about to explain, but Sean didn’t give him the chance. He grabbed Tracy and walked
away.
Chris, who was standing behind them, was dumbfounded. A biological brother helping stepsister steal his own sister’s husband-what kind of shocking gossip is this?
This is truly explosive!
Jared stood frozen in place, carefully trying to dissect what Sean had just said.
Chase watched Sean escort Tracy away, unable to stop himself from asking Jared, “Who is that man? And what did he mean by that last remark?”
Seeing everyone treat Sean with such reverence made him feel uneasy.
Did Tracy really manage to find a powerful patron?
Jared’s brow furrowed. He sighed, “He’s the Johnson family heir. I have no idea what he meant by that comment. Could it be that we misunderstood Tracy?”
The way Sean protected Tracy made it look like they had known each other for a long time. With the protection of the Johnson family heir, how could Tracy possibly care about Chandler?
That explains it. Tracy’s invitation was given by Sean, and her dress was likely also a gift from him.
Chase looked surprised for a moment, then shrugged, “Do you really think the Johnson family heir would fall for someone of Tracy’s caliber? Is it her Bachelor’s degree? Or her schemes? Ultimately, Tracy is just throwing herself at him. Someone like her poses no threat to us. Don’t forget, the Johnson family and the White family are engaged. If Miss White finds out Tracy is seducing her fiancé, what do you think will happen?”
The Johnson family is a top-tier influential family in Northport, and their standards are high. Tracy wanting to marry into the Johnson family is dreaming.

More importantly, there is Miss White. The marriage alliance was arranged a long time ago and is
very difficult to break.
Some things are destined and cannot be obtained through scheming.
Jared agreed that Chase’s point was valid, so he stopped dwelling on the issue.
Just then, Yvonne walked over, linking her arm with Chandler’s. She smiled and greeted them, “Why are you two only just arriving?”
Chase explained, “I ran into an old acquaintance just now and got caught up chatting.”
He didn’t mention who the acquaintance was because whenever Tracy was mentioned, they all grew unhappy.
So, it was best not to bring her up.
Chandler was clearly distracted. He thought he had just seen Tracy walk by, accompanied by
two men.
When he tried to look closer, Yvonne blocked his view and pulled him over to them.
But then he thought, Tracy was probably dragged away by Lincoln and Perry. Why else would I not see them now?
When Chase suddenly asked him a professional question, Chandler began conversing with Jared and quickly pushed the unpleasantness to the back of his mind.
Meanwhile, Tracy was being led by Sean. All the way, she felt the scrutinizing stares of the onlookers. She felt like they were going to burn hole through her.
Seeing Sam not far away, Tracy said tentatively, I saw my friend. I’m going to go now.”
Standing next to the Johnson family heir was overwhelming. Too many people were desperate to suck up to Sean, and they all saw her as the obstacle.
I need to find an excuse to run immediately, or all those eyes are going to give me internal injuries.
Sean’s eyes settled heavily on her, “Are you moving house tonight?”
Tracy nodded, “Mm. After the banquet, I will move out of the Gaunt family home.”
The thought of leaving Chandler and starting a bright new future made her feel great.
A month has passed. She finally reached the end of the line. It was a tough wait, but it was finally over.

“Go,” Sean said no more and released her.

After Tracy left, Chris put his hand on Sean’s shoulder and asked with a mischievous grin, “That last time you asked me to arrange for my grandfather to consult at Harmony Hospital
-was that for this girl? Seriously, the girl looks like she’s only in her early twenties. How could she have stomach cancer, and mid-stage at that?”
He was genuinely curious about the relationship between this girl and Sean. They certainly didn’t look like they had just met.
Sure enough, this guy is hiding something. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes today, he wouldn’t believe that this paragon of virtue had been swept off his feet.
And by a girl with cancer, no less.
If the Johnson family and the White family found out about Tracy, it would surely cause a bloodbath.
After all, Sean has a fiancée, even if he never acknowledges it.
The marriage alliance was arranged by the two families’ patriarchs a long time ago and is very difficult to break.
Sean gave him a sidelong glance, “Are you too idle?”
Chris rubbed his chin, “No, not idle. I’ll shut up then.”
Receiving Sean’s chilling gaze, Chris immediately backed down. Fine, if he doesn’t want to talk, I won’t. I could talk until my mouth was dry, and he wouldn’t say anything.
He had no choice but to curb his nosy curiosity.
Sean looked at Tracy’s retreating back and suddenly explained, “She is my lifesaver’s niece. Her uncle and mother passed away. Her two brothers, as you just saw, treat her terribly. She is already seriously ill, yet her own family members are not helping her. They are actively trying to destroy her.”
The girl is stronger than I thought. To remain so optimistic after enduring so many crises, the betrayal of her husband, and suddenly being struck with such a severe illness.
She was truly admirable.
Chris looked surprised for a moment, then nodded in understanding. The girl has suffered s much at such a young age.
She truly is pitiful.

He rarely heard Sean talk so much. This guy was usually a man of few words, but he had made an exception for this girl.
He opened his mouth, about to say something, but then heard Sean point to the distance and say, “That man is her husband, walking around with another woman. Her two biological brothers are even helping the stepsister steal her husband.”
Chris: “…”
My God! That’s actually true. How much pain must Tracy be in? Her husband cheating with her sister, and her two biological brothers acting as accomplices.
What kind of misery is this?
Anyone else would have broken down completely, or rushed over to confront them immediately.
Tracy’s resilience and composure were truly astounding.
