At this mont, July Quinn was still standing beside Kyle Keaton.
So when Wendy Tierney asked Kyle Keaton, her expression, reminiscent of a lovestruck girl, didn’t escape July Quinn’s eyes.
Seeing July Quinn secretly observing her, Wendy Tierney felt a bit smug.
After all, she had known Lord Keaton for much longer than July Quinn, having attended various training sessions together and carried out missions together.
Such familiarity was sothing July Quinn could never match.
The best proof was that July Quinn had just told Lord Keaton to deal with her, yet he ignored it completely!
Yes, this was evidence that in Lord Keaton’s mind, she ant far more than July Quinn.
Now that she had invited Lord Keaton to leave with her and others, she believed that he would definitely agree without hesitation.
Imagining the scene where July Quinn would be left hurt and humiliated by Lord Keaton’s heartless departure, Wendy Tierney felt an indescribable thrill in her heart.
But what was puzzling was that despite waiting for so long for Lord Keaton’s response, he hadn’t answered her.
Feeling a bit anxious, Wendy Tierney couldn’t help but raise her voice: "Lord Keaton?"
Did he not hear?
In any case, she needed Lord Keaton to respond quickly, so she wouldn’t beco a laughingstock in front of July Quinn.
But when she spoke up, Lord Keaton still didn’t reply.
Not only that, he even turned to glance at July Quinn.
Wendy Tierney: "..."
What’s going on?
Could it be that Lord Keaton has a hearing problem?
If not, why would he look at July Quinn when she was speaking?
The prolonged wait only made Wendy Tierney feel increasingly awkward.
Especially in front of July Quinn, she felt trapped and her face flushed with heat.
Finally, July Quinn couldn’t take it anymore and kicked Kyle Keaton’s shoe, leaving a proud shoe print on it.
"The corner thief is asking you a question!"
Wendy Tierney: "..."
To call her a corner thief right in front of her face, was that really okay?
But July Quinn’s outburst was also an opportunity.
Hence, Wendy Tierney took the chance to redden her eyes: "Lord Keaton, I didn’t intend to be a corner thief. I was just asking if you want to go back to Esteria with us, but July Quinn said that about ...
"
Like every naive victim, she made herself sound utterly innocent, yet highlighted others’ malice.
She thought she’d gain sympathy quickly, like other naive victims, and wait for Lord Keaton to reprimand July Quinn.
But little did she expect that Kyle Keaton continued to ignore her words, frowning as he looked at July Quinn.
"Didn’t you tell to deal with her before?"
Wendy Tierney looked bewildered: "..."
Was she invisible?
Why was Lord Keaton pretending not to hear any of her words?
And why did Lord Keaton need to deal with her?
July Quinn hadn’t expected Kyle Keaton to rember her previous words and then consider taking action.
"So how do you plan to deal with her?"
Her gaze circled around Wendy Tierney before returning to Kyle Keaton.
"Kick her out of the Vanguard War General managent. That way, we won’t run into each other in the future."
Kyle Keaton’s tone was extrely calm, as if discussing today’s weather.
But this statent shocked Wendy Tierney: "Lord Keaton, you want to kick out of the Vanguard War General managent? No! You can’t do that..."
Kyle Keaton had officially taken over the entire Keaton Family, making his status extrely prestigious.
Now, unless they’re in the Vanguard War General managent, ordinary mbers have no chance of contacting him.
If she was expelled from the Vanguard War General managent, she would have no chance to interact with Lord Keaton, let alone marry him.
Wendy Tierney raised her voice, imdiately attracting the attention of Thomas Grant and others near the airport entrance.
"Lord Keaton, what’s going on?"
Thomas Grant questioned on behalf of everyone.
They had heard Wendy Tierney shouting from afar and upon approaching, discovered her red eyes.
Kyle Keaton didn’t reply, but Wendy Tierney began to sob: "Brother Grant, Lord Keaton wants to kick out of the managent."
"Lord Keaton, what happened?" Thomas Grant was also a bit puzzled.
Changes in the Vanguard War General managent staff were rare.
But Kyle Keaton still didn’t respond to Wendy Tierney or acknowledge Thomas Grant.
July Quinn found it sowhat awkward and once again played the role of a spokesperson.
"Hey, they all say you can’t do that!"
Finally, the previously unresponsive Kyle Keaton coldly said:
"The power to appoint and dismiss in the Vanguard War General is in my hands. I have the authority to decide anyone’s fate."
Wendy Tierney imdiately exploded: "But Lord Keaton, I haven’t done anything wrong! How can you condemn based on the fabricated lies of soone like July Quinn?"
Yes, from the mont she saw Lord Keaton until now, she hadn’t erred in word or deed.
Yet Lord Keaton treated her this way, surely it was because July Quinn had said sothing bad about her behind her back.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt the surrounding temperature drop significantly.
Confused about the source of this chill, she looked up only to see Lord Keaton’s eyes, as black as ink, unfathomable.
Was the chill emanating from Lord Keaton?
Wendy Tierney shivered involuntarily.
At this mont, Kyle Keaton said: "You didn’t commit any obvious mistakes before. But just now, you insulted the head matriarch of the Keaton Family!"
As soon as Kyle Keaton spoke, all the Vanguard War Generals were stunned.
Head matriarch?!
