Sign the Papers Mr. Langford novel Chapter 15

The moment the words left Wren's mouth, the expressions on the faces of the surrounding guests wildly shifted.

Willow's smile remained frozen in place.

She clearly hadn't expected Wren to rip the mask off in such a public setting.

The old Wren would never have done this.

In the past, no matter how close Willow got to Lawrence, no matter how terribly outsiders misconstrued the situation, Wren would only watch in silence and swallow her humiliation.

She was always desperate to protect the Langford family's reputation.

To protect Lawrence's ego.

And to protect her sister's public image.

But today, Wren couldn't care less.

Willow's eyes instantly welled with tears, her voice quivering like a fragile leaf in the wind.

"Wren, how could you say that about me?"

Wren didn't dignify that with a response.

She was already walking away, heading straight for Stellaris Medical's scheduled partners.

This gala was critical for Stellaris. She wasn't here to play petty games with Willow.

And she certainly wasn't here to prove who the real Mrs. Langford was.

She didn't want the position anymore.

Willow stood rooted to the spot, her shoulders trembling delicately.

Lawrence stepped up beside her.

"What happened?"

Willow immediately shook her head, forcing a brave, tragic smile as if terrified he might think poorly of Wren.

"It's nothing. Wren probably just heard people misunderstanding our relationship and felt upset."

She sounded entirely cautious and hopelessly considerate.

"Lawrence, please don't be mad at her. She is your wife, after all. It's completely natural for her to be angry when she hears things like that."

Lawrence watched Wren's retreating figure, a glacial chill settling over his features.

Her outburst just now had been wildly inappropriate.

In a setting like this, gossip spread like wildfire.
