Chapter 273

| thought the question was hypothetical and meaningless, so | refused to answer. Besides, even if Soren weren't

in the picture, there was never a possibility of anything between us.

After that, Ace wheeledout of the courtroom, where Cherry and Jean were already waiting. They had already

heard the verdict and rushed over to celebrate.

“Congratulations! You're finally free of him for good!”

| gave them a faint smile. “Let’s go have lunch and celebrate.”

“Absolutely! Let's go to the Oriole. I've already made the reservation,” Jean said excitedly.

I invited Ace to join us, but he declined, saying he had too much to take care of. Then he left.

The three of us followed behind, but as soon as we stepped off the courthouse steps, a commotion erupted

ahead.

| frowned at the sight.

The Kennedys were waiting at the courthouse entrance, standing beside Sally.

Who knew how long they had been there, just waiting forto cout?

Sally spottedand charged forward. “There she is!”

Jean reacted instantly. “Cherry, block them! I'll get Taylor out of here.”

| laughed. “Forget it, there's no avoiding them.”

Jean didn't listen. She gritted her teeth, grabbed my wheelchair handles, and sprinted in the opposite direction,

hoping to escape through another exit.

But Cherry, alone against the Kennedys, was no match for them. They caught up and hadsurrounded in no

time.

“Taylor, you got what you wanted. You're free now, so why won't you let Edith go?! She treated you like her

sister- in-law all these years, took you as family, and yet you had the heart to send her to prison?”

Sally blocked my path, her tone fierce and indignant as if she had every right to make such demands.

Jean, panting from the chase, snapped, “Family? Do your family members usually spike each other's drinks with

drugs? What kind of tradition is that?!”

Pfft!

| nearly burst out laughing and gave Jean a thumbs-up.

By Sally's logic, Edith, who supposedly sawas family, had no problem poisoning me.

Yeah, I'd rather pass on that kind of family.

Sally's face twisted. She paled as she looked atand barked, “I'm talking to Taylor. Mind your own business!”

Then she really looked at me. Her eyes narrowed. “What happened to your legs? Why are you in a wheelchair?”

“Why bother asking? I'm sure it’s just karma for being a vicious woman,” one of the Kennedy relatives sneered. |

“That's because Edward still loves you!”

“No thanks. | don’t need his love.”

Sally scoffed. “Of course you don’t-not when | heard you've already gotten in bed with Soren Kenway. Edward

wasted six years pouring his love into you, and you-

Before she could finish, a cool, authoritative voice cut through the crowd.

“You should be more careful with your choice of words, Mrs. Kennedy. When exactly did Taylor get in bed with

me? Would you care to clarify that statement for everyone here?”

The entire group, myself included, turned toward the voice momentarily stunned.

It was none other than Soren.

| frowned slightly. | hadn’t wanted him involved in this mess.

Meanwhile, Jean was practically vibrating with excitement. She patted my shoulder and whispered, “This is

gonna be good.”

The Kennedys bristled, trying to stand their ground but instinctively retreated as Soren strode forward.

| supposed there wasn’t much they could do when faced with a man who exuded that kind of presence.
