Chapter 83: I am his legal wife
Layla returned midway since she forgot to ask Damon about his choice when she saw how Sylvia had held Lucius’s collar, yelling at him. Her blood boiled and she marched to them.
Before Sylvia could spat a nonsense, Layla grabbed her both hands and yanked them off Lucius’s collar, shocking evryone present in the hall. Standing in front of Lucius, she said with an intimidating gaze, "Stop yelling at my husband."
"When you don’t know anything, you shouldn’t involve yourself," Sylvia said. "Lucius had promised my brother. So, you better divorce him and leave his life."
"Your brother is no more. And even if he were alive, he wouldn’t have wanted Lucius to suffer. I don’t care about the promise between them, but now I am his legal wife. Stop tormenting my husband. If you don’t, I’ll take action," Layla said, keeping her gaze fixed at Sylvia.
Sylvia chuckled and said with mockery, "You couldn’t fight your own family. Do you think you can take action against me?" Sylvia pointed finger at herself.
"You know a lot about me," Layla remarked and moved her hand up, showing her the phone. "I recorded your nonsense. You were never Lucius’s choice, so don’t force yourself on him. Be thankful that he always treated you with respect. But I won’t do the same," she pronounced. The next second, Layla firmly grasped her arm and dragged Sylvia out with her.
"Leave me!" Sylvia kept screaming, but Layla didn’t stop until she reached outside the door.
She pushed out Sylvia and said, "Throw her out of the mansion. If any of you let her inside, you’ll be fired. This is my order," looking at the guards and Lucius’s bodyguards.
Sylvia, who was lying on the floor glared at Layla and then at Lucius.
