SWNOVELS Chapter My Toyboy 276
Chapter 276
Both Justin and Shirley were stunned. Justin turned to Jonathan and asked, "What did you say?"
Jonathan repeated, "Such a terrible act as drugging someone canot be let go so easily. Otherwise, how would this world maintain any clarity or order?"
Justin's expression changed several times. He hesitated and sail Jon, we're family, anyway. Can't we handle this within our family? No need to get the police involved, right?"
A hint of disappointment flickered in Cynthia's eyes but vanished in a second. She no longer had any expectations from Justin. He might be the father who raised her, but he was also heartless and selfish.
He only cared about his reputation and the family's interest, never about her feelings or whether she was hurt.
Before Jonathan could say anything, Sam had already walked over and said, "Mr. Jones, have you always been this biased?"
Justin was taken aback, unsure why Sam had butted in. Sam said, "You gave the pendant to your biological daughter to leech off our Xenos family..
"Your adopted daughter got bullied, drugged, and slandered, but you're not gonna stand up for her? Instead, you even want to downplay Shirley's actions?
"Mr. Jones, you claimed to treat both daughters equally-is this your idea of fairness? I can't agree with that.
don't know or care about your past dealings, but just from this dinner, I can see what kind of person you are, Mr. Jones
"Guys, I wanna make it clear that I only take Cynthia as our family member, and have no desire to associate with the rest of the Jones family.
"Since Mr. Jones, my goddaughter's foster father, finds it difficult and refuses to stand up for her, I, as her godfather, can't just sit back and let others bully her. Today, Ms. Shirley Jones is definitely going to the police station If anyone dares to get in the way or tries to bail her out, they're going against our Xenos family. "As for what happens after, the police will investigate thoroughly. If Ms. Shirley Jones didn't do it, we wouldn't wrong her. But if she's guilty of those dirty deeds..."
Sam paused. His expression was grim, his lips were pursed, and he said in a cold and harsh voice, "Then Ms. Shirley Jones will have a lifetime in prison to clean up her act."
Everyone present understood the seriousness of these words. Sam meant that if Shirley really had done those things, she'd spend the rest of her life in jail. Moreover, Sam had also distanced himself from the Jones family.
He made it clear that he only accepted Cynthia, not the Jones family. From now on, if Justin planned to use Cynthia's connection to the Xenos family to mingle with the elite or gain benefits, there would be no chance. This almost cut off Justin's lifeline.
Justin's heart was throbbing painfully. He could hardly bear with it, and beads of sweat were popping out on his forehead. Soon, the police arrived. The butler had already explained everything and identified Shirley when they walked up.
So the police didn't waste any time. They walked straight up to Shirley and said, "Shirley Jones, you've been reported for poisoning. Please come with us to the station."
Shirley was completely stunned. She thought, 'How did things turn out this way? Just three hours ago, I came here happily, dreaming of connecting with the Xenos family and skyrocketing to success. Chapter 276
"How did everything change in just three hours? I'm about to be taken away by the police? No, I can't go to jail. I don't wanna go to jaill
Shirley snapped back to reality. She grabbed Justin's clothes so hard that she almost pulled his jacket off. She said, "Dad, help me! I don't want to go to jail. I really can't go to jaill
I'm your daughter! You can't do this to me! Are you really going to abandon the for Cynthia?
"You've already abandoned me once. Are you going to do it again?
"I hate you all! I hate you...
Shirley was forcibly dragged outside. But slie still wasn't willing to give up and kept struggling. She shouted, "Cynthia, I won't let you go, not even if I'm dead!"
Shirley was taken away. Selena didn't dare to look at the scene, and her tears kept gushing out.
But she knew very well that she could no longer cover up for Shirley. Because of her favoritism and indulgence, Shirley had become totally out of control, even resorting to drugging someone.
She needed to be punished to learn a lesson. Selena also felt guilty toward Cynthia and didn't dare to meet her eyes.
Seeing that Justin looked so pale and could hardly stand still, Selena turned to Sam and Ruby and said, "Mr. Xenos, Mrs. Xenos, our daughter's actions are indeed her responsibility, and we won't shield her.
"But as her parents, we have to accompany her to the police station for the investigation. Please excuse us for leaving
Sam nodded and said, "Mrs. Jones, take care. Warren, see our guests out."
Sam's voice was quite gentle. He felt that Selena still had some conscience. Besides, as parents, it was right for them to stand by their child, regardless of her mistakes.
Selena finally glanced at Cynthia. Cynthia's expression was calm, showing no emotion. Selena felt really complicated. She said, "We truly neglected Cynthia over the years, and now that she has your love, I am genuinely happy. "Mr. and Mrs. Xenos, please continue to take care of her and help mend the pain she has endured:
Sam said, "You don't need to worry about that. She is now our goddaughter. With my wife and me, plus her four god- brothers, I don't think there's anyone in this world who would dare to bully her anymore."
Selena knew he was implying something. Feeling a bit embarrassed, she flushed and then pulled Justin out of the room.
After Shirley left, the dining room was quiet for a moment. Naomi was the first to speak up, "The show's over. You guys can go home now."
Naomi was saying that to the young men and women from Roncrity who had come over to see what was happening They were reluctant to leave, since the Xenos family from Betrico was known by reputation but rarely seen in person. Although the Xenos family's reputation in the country wasn't as high as the Bennett family's, it was mostly because Sam and Ruby had moved abroad over ten years ago and shifted much of their business overseas.
Internationally, their fame and recognition were even greater than that of the Bennett, family.
After all, Ruby was an ambassador to the United Nations. The Xenos family wasn't just a financial powerhouse. Their four sons had each pursued their own paths, with careers in politics, business, and even producing an international superstar. With such a first-rate family background, there was truly no equal in the country. Those noble ladies didn't wanna leave at all when they saw the four brothers. They all blushed shyly and stared at them each with their own thoughts. Chapter 270
Seeing that nobody way moving. Naomi started ushering them away, 'Move; move, folks. Time to leave. Let them have a family reunion. If you don't leave now. I'll have to start kicking people our?
Naomi roughly pushed everyone gathered at the door out of thay Hector couldn't help but laugh at her actions. She was really merciless. She even directly kicked those young ladies who were sticking around the entrance. Finally, Naomi managed to drive everyone out She glanced at Cynthia, sensing they still had something to discuss, so she
Hector hurriedly said to Ruby, "Mom, now that Mr. Gunter has mished your check-up, let me give him a ride home George' medicine worked wonders, and in no time, Ruby's rash faded completely. After thanking him, she nodded and said. Hector, walk. Dr. Huston out."
But George waved his hand repeatedly and said, "No, it's fine. I just live next door. I don't need an escort for such a short distance" But Hector insisted. Dr. Huston, let me walk you out. Our yard is still under construction, and it's easy to trip
