President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 273

The next morning, the rain stopped outside.

I stood in front of the second floor window and opened it. I smelt damp soil. I saw the asphalt road outside washed clean by the rain.

I couldn’t help but want to go out for a walk.

I washed my face and changed my clothes. As soon as I opened the door, I saw Inez and Marlin sitting at my door!

When I opened the door, they both stood up.

Inez wanted to go in.

“What are you doing?” My hands were blocking the door.

Inez looked at me and said with a smile, “June, did you have breakfast? We bring you breakfast. It’s cold outside. Let’s go in.”

I saw her carrying a plastic bag with a bowl in it.

The bowl seemed to contain porridge, which had already spilled out a lot.

“I said I’m not your daughter. I’ll call the police!”

I just wanted to come out for a walk, but I didn’t expect to meet them.

I didn’t bring my cell phone.

Even so, I still put my hand in my pocket as if to take my cell phone.

Inez believed it. She immediately grabbed my hand. “No, June, we’re just afraid you’re hungry. We haven’t seen each other for many years. You can’t cook. We don’t know if you eat on time or if you miss my cooking...”

Her words disgusted me.

They were afraid I was hungry? I missed her cooking?

I didn’t want to admit that I was June and tangle with them, or I really wanted to scold them.

I just shook off her hand and stepped back and said, “I’m not June.”

With that, I wanted to go in and close the door.

But when I was about to close the door, it was clear that Inez and Marlin exchanged eyes.

Inez threw away the bowl in her hand. They rushed in together!

“What are you doing!”

I didn’t expect them to break in.

But soon I thought I was naive. They were so poor that they dare to do anything!

They just threw me to the ground and went into the house!

Marlin stood up and closed the door.

Inez looked up and at the studio. She grinned, “June, you killed Molly and lived in such a nice house. Why!”

They exposed their nature when nobody was around!

They were afraid of Ming yesterday.

“I’m not June, so please go out.”

As I said it, I got up and thought about how I could get my cell phone upstairs.

“You’re still arguing!” My denial infuriated Inez directly. She looked at me and took her cell phone out of her pocket. She found a picture and said to me, “I was told you were going back to York! We’ve been waiting for you for five years!”

She approached me with that picture.

Seeing this picture, I couldn’t help but breathe deeply.

The day I got to York, I wore this dress in the picture. In other words, someone knew where I was.

And he told Marlin and Inez.

“Who gave you this picture?” I stared at Inez and asked her.

Inez saw that I was so nervous and smiled smugly, “why should I tell you?”

“You give us the house in York No.1, and we’ll let you know.” Marlin stood behind for a long time.

It seemed that he was waiting for this time to say this.

Maybe I knew their purpose so I wasn’t surprised. I stepped back and sat in a chair at my desk and said, “no way. That’s what Grandma left me. I won’t give it to anyone.”

“No?” Inez walked up to me step by step and suddenly grabbed my neck with both hands!

“What are you doing!”

I was scared! I tried to open her hand with two hands.

But Inez seemed to have done a lot of physical work in recent years, so she had a lot of strength!

Her hands were rough. She grabbed my neck and I felt a distinct sense of friction.

She nipped her long fingernails into my flesh.

Inez looked at me ferociously, and Marlin’s expression behind her was full of hatred.

I knew it!

How could these two people be kind!

Inez said ferociously, “don’t think we don’t know your life is Molly’s! It’s you, not Molly, who should die!”

“What are you talking about?”

“You bitch! You should have died on the ship that day! You pushed Molly into the fire! Or she wouldn’t die! You should die!”

The more Inez said, the more terrifying the look on her face.

Her eyes were wide open. The strength of her hands increased.

But obviously, she didn’t want to kill me. She just wanted to scare me and then let me give them the house.

I was almost strangled by Sean. I was not afraid of her.

But how did they know what happened on the ship?

At that time...

“Do you have a connection with Ward?” I looked at Inez and wasn’t scared at all.

When I mentioned the name, Inez was obviously a little surprised, her face was frozen and she said, “who is he? I don’t know him.”

“He is the only one who knows about it. You just know him, but you know who he is. He is not a good man. It’s dangerous for you to trade with him!”

I said it word by word. Inez seemed to have been exposed by me. The strength in her hand had slackened.

At last her hands were completely down.

There was even fear in her face.

It seemed that ward really did something.

Marlin was more conscious than Inez. He said directly, “don’t talk nonsense. Give us the house now! Anyway, we’re having a bad time. Sooner or later we will die. We’re going to die with you!”

Ha-ha.

I knew that in their eyes, of course, money was important.

“OK, then kill me. Anyway, I have parents like you. I might as well die.”

I remembered Ming said he would pick me up at noon.

It was eight in the morning.

If I delayed, I may be able to wait until Ming.

Seeing me like this, Marlin was angry. “OK, then we’ll kill you!”

He picked up a chair next to him and threw it at me.

I dodged and looked at him coldly. “Marlin, do you think I’ll let you beat and scold me and not fight back?”

Looking at the chair, I thought of eight years ago.

That day Sean and I went back to Carter Family.

Marlin hit me with a chair.

I could hardly stand up.

Thinking about this, I picked up my chair and walked over to Marlin.

He thought I was going to hit him, so he stepped back. “I’m your father. You are so rebellious!”

“Really?” I went up to him and looked at him. “Then father, what did you do to deserve the name?”

“I...”

When Marlin hesitated, I saw his eyes looking behind me.

Then there was panic on his face!

When I was about to turn around, my back hurt!
