Destined Entwining: Capturing My Devoted Beau

Chapter 769: Chapter 395: Cleansing the Sect (First Update)

What do you mean by "just this"?!

Peter Grant instantly flew into a rage, pointing at Lawrence Winters’ nose and calling her full name, "Lawrence Winters! Show some respect! What do you mean by ’just this’? What more do you want?!"

This is all really hard, you know?!

Look at her nonchalant attitude, she clearly doesn’t take our Celestial Master Sect - Grant Branch seriously!

Lawrence Winters raised an eyebrow and naturally changed the subject, asking, "You’re the Little Heavenly Master, right? What’s your name?"

"Me? A man of integrity uses his real name and doesn’t change it when sitting down. — I’m Peter Grant, a disciple of the 79th generation of the Celestial Master Sect under the Grant lineage!" Peter Grant finally struck a pose with his head held high.

Lawrence Winters smirked and continued to derail the conversation, "Um, that archaic way of speaking, did you learn it from acting scripts while overseas? Why don’t you just speak a foreign language, I can understand."

Peter Grant was taken aback and subconsciously said, "...Did I say something wrong?"

"Not wrong, it just sounds out of place, odd. For instance, we no longer say things like ’... I’m Peter Grant, a disciple of the 79th generation of the Celestial Master Sect under the Grant lineage.’ " Lawrence Winters shook her head lightly.

"That’s how it’s sung on stage. But today’s Miss Shen’s birthday party, performing a segment like this fits the occasion. Look at the Wells Residence Garden, full of classical charm, requiring someone like you with a built-in BGM to embellish it and thus making it a heritage family. — Edward, don’t you agree?"

Lawrence Winters suddenly engaged Edward Foster, because she knew Edward Foster could follow up the conversation.

Sure enough, Edward Foster immediately said, "Exactly! This heritage is unrivaled! My family doesn’t have this kind of heritage! — When hosting a banquet, wouldn’t it be crucial to hire a couple of comedic sidekicks? Hahaha!"

This, both openly and covertly, cast Peter Grant as a jesting fool at ancient affluent families’ dining occasions, very different from the universally revered "Great Heavenly Master."

Peter Grant indeed grew up abroad, but also learned Dao from a master since childhood overseas.

He sensed something was off, but couldn’t pinpoint what was wrong.

He was pondering hard.

Lawrence Winters wouldn’t give him time to think, she immediately said, "Since Mr. Peter Grant grew up abroad, how did you know who I am? And how did you know I’m formidable? — I never knew you."

"Also, your Grant Branch. The Great Heavenly Master lineage holds the Zhang Branch in the highest regard. If you’re from the Grant Branch, you ought to call me Gran Referee Mistress." Lawrence Winters folded her hands behind her back, adopting the posture of an elder.

Peter Grant was bewildered by her, "What Gran Referee Mistress? How could you be several generations above me?"

"Your master is the 79th generation of the Grant Branch, my master is the 78th generation of the Zhang Branch, naturally higher than your master by one generation. Plus, the Zhang Branch is inherently superior to the other three major branches, so I’m two generations higher than you. Shouldn’t you call me Gran Referee Mistress?"

Peter Grant received another blow from the Celestial Path Sect, his face alternating between pale and green, lips twitching, after a while he shouted, "So what?! This just proves these are indeed your doing!"

He turned around, addressing the people inside the hall, "Be careful! Whoever offends this woman is doomed!"

"Shut up! Our Celestial Path Sect values rules, seeing the Gran Referee Mistress, aren’t you going to bow?! How dare you speak recklessly! Do I need to invite the Three Pure Ones to clean up the Grant Branch?" Lawrence Winters also rebuked him sharply.

Her voice was originally soft and sweet, with a smiling tone when talking to people, but this time her voice dropped, her delicate and warm female tone carrying a bit of authority, like smooth silk gliding over the tip of a knife, making people’s hearts tremble, fearing when the trembling silk might be severed by the blade.

Peter Grant, looking at Lawrence Winters, was so intimidated by her presence that his legs nearly went soft, almost kneeling right there.

Autumn Stetford suddenly spoke, "Celestial Master! This isn’t the time to recognize your sect connections! Our Betty is still suffering!"

This voice suddenly brought Peter Grant back to his senses.

He glared at Lawrence Winters and angrily said, "Enchantress! Almost fell for your trap!"

Poof—!

Edward Foster was the first to lose composure, laughing uproariously.

Evan Stetford also curled up a corner of his mouth, mildly saying, "Sis, let’s stop fooling around and quickly take Betty to the hospital. Though Lawrence is a member of the Celestial Path Sect, she wouldn’t do such things. Your evidence..."

Is simply not worth a rebuttal.

Just to give Autumn Stetford a face, Evan Stetford didn’t finish his sentence.

Autumn Stetford coldly said, "Evan, don’t interfere. We have professional medical supervision here. I just want to retaliate against the person who harmed my daughter, once and for all!"

Lawrence Winters sighed and said, "Mrs. Shen, even if your daughter is really possessed, it’s because of yourselves, not because of me."

Autumn Stetford’s heart shook, instinctively tightening her grip on Ruby Sheldon’s arm.

Ruby Sheldon whimpered in pain, buried her head in Autumn Stetford’s arms, and murmured, "Mommy, it hurts..."

Aiden Sheldon, who had remained silent by the side, now stroked Ruby Sheldon’s head, soothingly said, "Perhaps still best to head to the hospital..."

"No! I don’t want to go to the hospital! I’m scared!" Ruby Sheldon immediately grabbed Aiden Sheldon’s hand, clasping his and Autumn Stetford’s hands together, "I want to be with Mom and Dad!"

Ryan Sheldon and Nathan Sheldon both straightened, standing apart beside Aiden Sheldon and Autumn Stetford.

Ryan Sheldon trusted Lawrence Winters, but Ruby Sheldon didn’t appear to be pretending.

He didn’t know what to do.

Nathan Sheldon wanted to speak, but Autumn Stetford stopped him.

She raised her head and said to the guests in the hall, "Sorry, there’s an issue in our family today, thank you for bearing with us. I’ll visit each of your homes to apologize another day."

She intended to send the guests away.

At this time, those unrelated indeed didn’t want to stay longer, and had long been thinking of leaving.

Autumn Stetford said the word and these folks left cleanly.

In the end, only Mrs. Foster, Mrs. Sheng and a few others who were very familiar remained.

They stayed to support Mrs. Foster, and Mrs. Foster was to support Lawrence Winters.

After all, she brought her here and must take her back safely.
