CHAPTER 3 The Second Person to Protect Her

The two stood side by side like that, sometimes talking for a few sentences. Originally, the scene was peaceful. However, that peace could not last long. The rich ladies saw Justin standing next to Amanda, they immediately felt jealous. How could a girl as ugly as a monster stand next to the son of the Stephen family? While beautiful ladies like them can only be mercilessly ignored?

"Justin, why are you standing next to her? Aren't you afraid you'll be unlucky?"

A girl approached the two of them, her sour tone causing Amanda to subconsciously furrow her brows. Unlucky? What are they trying to make up about her again?

Sure enough, the lady's statement caught Justin's attention. He raised his bushy eyebrows, a glint of interest in his eyes. Anyway, he hasn't been in the country for a long time, so there are many unknowns. Take this opportunity, to try to see what has happened in the upper class in recent years. And the rich lady saw Justin's enjoyment and was even happier. She stepped closer to him, naturally wrapping her arms around Justin, letting her breasts press against his.

"I heard that the eldest daughter of the Mohini family had a curse on her since she was born. You know, there was a prophecy that she would kill the entire Mohini family."

The words of the rich lady, the more she spoke, the harder it was to hear. Amanda clenched her fist, she really couldn't bear to have them talk about her family's business. But, she couldn't refute it. Because, she couldn't talk, and no one volunteered to understand the sign language she was using. Therefore, Amanda could only stand there, and endure the humiliation of the rich lady but could not resist.

"Really?"

Justin raised his eyebrows, his face didn't have too many expressions but it seemed that the voice was trying to control his discomfort. He does not like being touched by others without his consent. But the rich lady did not realize, she thought that Justin was interested in the story she told, and tried to stick to him even more.

"That's right! You know, she can also bring bad luck to those around her. I have kindness, want to give you a word of advice. If you don't want bad luck, don't go near her. That is not good!"

Amanda could not continue to listen to the other lady insult her anymore, she turned around, wanting to leave today's party. Amanda herself didn't care what those rich ladies said about her, simply because she was truly a dumbass ugly in their words. But, they not only insulted her but also insulted the entire Mohini family. This made it impossible for Amanda to continue her nonchalant demeanor. No matter what, she is a member of the Mohini family.

"What's wrong? Because I'm right so you want to run away? This monster, you don't think you're so noble. Didn't the Mohini family not accept you? Do you think anyone here needs you?"

Seeing that Amanda was about to leave, the lady immediately took her hand. As long as Amanda was here, those ladies had someone to take down. So, like it or not, she had to stay. Amanda was caught, she frowned in annoyance, yanking her hand to get out. As a result, the young lady fell to the ground. And that action, also made everyone present at the party pay attention to where the two of them were. It's not okay, Amanda hastily lowered her face, afraid of other people's eyes on her.

"You bastard, you dare to push me down?"

The lady saw that many people were paying attention, and shouted even louder to attract more people. The more awkward Amanda is, the more she will benefit from putting Amanda down in front of everyone.

"Okay, there's no need to make jokes here."

Suddenly, Justin stood in front of Amanda, seemingly trying to protect her. His actions surprised not only the lady who had just insulted Amanda, but also the people at the party. The second son of the Stephen family is protecting a monster. What the hell just happened? No one paid attention to the young lady who was still lying on the ground. What they care about now is what will happen between Justin and Amanda.

"I'm sorry if they made you feel uncomfortable. I'll ask the butler to bring you back right now. Prevent others from continuing to attack you like that. I don't know, will Lady Amanda agree to my suggestion?"

Amanda nodded immediately. She didn't want to stay here a moment longer. Justin quickly signaled a housekeeper to prepare the car, and he hugged Amanda by the waist, personally escorting her outside. The crowd murmured, what was this all about? Why would the main character of today's party want to go out with the monster? What is this? Beauty and the Beast gender-changing version? The more the crowd talked, the more enthusiastic they were, everyone was talking about what happened earlier. And the lady who just insulted Amanda was like an invisible person, no one noticed.

[Thank you for clearing the siege for me.]

Before getting into the car, Amanda did not forget to write a few words in Justin's hand. She was grateful for his actions earlier. If it weren't for Justin to help, she probably wouldn't have been able to leave this party peacefully.

"Nothing. That's what I should do. Please go home carefully."

Justin did not forget to kiss the back of Amanda's small hand, then turned to go inside the family manor. The party was still on tonight, he couldn't leave for too long.
