Chapter 597 Do Not Say It Again
Right after Martin spoke, Jason’s face fell as he rebuked indignantly, “It’s impossible! Natalie will never do something like that. Even if she did, she wouldn’t do it for no good reason. You must be responsible for your words. I’d advise you to think through your words before speaking.”
Everyone’s gaze landed on Martin.
Now that he had been utterly humiliated and was almost neutered, he insisted, “How can a man joke about this so easily? It’s Natalie who made me like this. It’s her!”
The crowd erupted into an uproar when they heard him. They started to doubt Natalie.
“Yeah! No man would say something like that unless it’s completely necessary.”
“Tsk… Look at Mr. Martin! He must be really injured right there.”
“Will Natalie really make the Jacksons lose their future generations?”
“Who knows?”
Since something like this happened to his precious son, Rowan looked extremely grim. His heart aching, he said to Jason, “Jason, I know that Natalie is your goddaughter. However, she hurt my son like this, and we don’t even know how the injury will turn out. In front of everyone, I hope that you won’t defend her for your private interests. Please, give a proper explanation to Martin. When will the wedding be held?”
At the most critical juncture, Rowan and Martin had the same thought.
Martin wanted to marry Natalie. After snatching all her assets from her, he would think of a way to torment her.
Rowan did not know how bad Martin’s injury was. However, all he wanted to do was to strike when the iron was hot. He wanted everyone to witness this and make Natalie agree to become his daughter-in-law.
When Jason heard what Rowan said, his expression turned grim. “Are you…”
“Dad, he’s just trying to aim for someone out of his league!” Stroking her pregnant stomach, Yana’s face blushed as she defended Natalie. “Even if we assume the worst and that Natalie actually did hurt him, he brought it upon himself!”
“Yana, we’ve known each other since young! You used to be so sickly. Now that you’re pregnant with your second child, can you be less harsh with your words?” Martin glared at Yana viciously.
Hans, who was usually very polite and gentle, saw how Martin was accusing her like a mad dog. His expression turned frosty as a warning look crept into his eyes. “Martin, try to defame Yana and our child one more time!”
When Martin met Hans’ gaze, his courage disappeared. Hence, he had no choice but to make Natalie his target again.
“It’s Natalie! She deliberately seduced me in the garden. When I ignored her, she lied that she was feeling unwell. Since she’s not acting normally, I accompanied her here to rest. To my surprise, immediately after entering the room. Then, she started stripping her clothes and taking off mine… I’m not someone who could not reject a woman’s advances. Looking at how shameless she was, I reminded her to respect herself more. However, she refused to listen and hugged me, trying to force herself upon me. Since I did not have any reactions toward her, she got angry and kicked me.”
When Martin said that, he looked extremely noble. Not only did he make himself sound completely innocent, but he also pushed all the blame on Natalie.
“Did everyone hear that?” Rowan nodded and declared, “Natalie was the one who seduced Martin and injured him! I didn’t expect the girl, who was praised so much by the Weisses, would do something like this! The Weisses have always been a reputable family, but it doesn’t mean that the Jacksons are insignificant! No matter what, I must seek justice for my son today!”
Rowan and Martin were so shameless that they did not mind resorting to such methods.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
At that moment, everyone heard someone clapping. Each clap was loud and clear.
The crowd subconsciously parted, making a path for the applauding girl to walk through. The person was none other than Natalie, who was the center of everyone’s discussion.
“What a great speech!” A mocking smirk appeared on Natalie’s lips. “Don’t say that ever again.”
