Yet, Remington did not look at her. “I may not have the freedom to marry who I love, but I certainly can reject her! Stop spreading rumors about my relationship with Miss Moore. I won’t let it slide again!”
Though Remington’s words seemed impartial, it was clear to everyone present that each statement he made was in Hannah’s defense.
Moreover, Remington had just walked over and openly protected Hannah behind him. It was so obvious that it sparked rumors.
Whispers began to circulate among the sensible attendees in the hall.
“He said he’s not involved with that woman? It’s clear Remington is defending her. It’s evident to anyone paying attention!”
“I’ve heard Remington likes her. It looks like there’s truth to that.”
“The Pierce and Compton families are uniting through marriage now.
Are the Lyons family flustered?”
“That’s unlikely. Remington’s family wouldn’t approve of marrying her, even if he wanted to!”
“Is it worth offending Austin family for that woman?”

With tears in her eyes, Elsa confronted Remington, saying, “You say you’re not involved with her? Then why are you so protective of her now?”

Aren’t you worried at all… but instead you’re here gossiping? If you have time to watch the chaos, you might want to think about how to protect yourselves.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd’s enthusiasm for the drama noticeably waned.
The Lyons family’s bodyguards were formidable. Yet today, someone had infiltrated and nearly committed a murder!
This person must be extremely capable, or.
Suddenly, everyone’s gaze shifted to Remington, speculating silently.
With a smirk, Maloney gave Elsa a cold look. “Miss Elsa Austin, you should be held accountable for making unfounded accusations.”
At first, Elsa was still crying. However, when she heard Maloney’s words, she scowled and exclaimed, “She is your fiancee. Of course you will defend her! But I must warn you! You are blind to the kind of person she really is, and you will regret it in the future!”
“Why should I have regrets?” Maloney continued to smile. “She is my fiancee. Naturally, I will protect her. Isn’t it normal for couples to trust each other? If I start having issues with Hannah just because of one or two bad things you say, wouldn’t that be what you want? And besides…”
