Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 474
Advertisement
The people below were impassioned. A man took the lead in inciting them, holding his fist in the air and shouting slogans, "Justice! Justice!"
"We want to see the president and ask for justice for the princess."
Hundreds of people shouted from downstairs to the VIP ward of Rebecca on the 19th floor.
A touch of cunning flashed through Rebecca's mind. Her injury aroused the public's voice, and the media would soon do publicity on this matter. Though Logan, as the President, wanted to protect Avery, he had to think about his identity and career.
Logan stood in front of the landing window and thought about something for a long time.
After a long time, as the people below did not stop, Logan slightly clenched his fists, turned around, and ordered, "Take them away through the back door."
Then he took the lead in walking to the door.
Rebecca lifted her pale face from the arms of Molly, and she guessed what Logan wanted to do and called him in time, "I'll go with you, and I'm going to talk to them. Though I'm angry, I don't want to make a big deal out of it, and I'll try to placate them."
Logan nodded his head.
Rebecca smugly looked at Avery. As Avery dared to disfigure her face, she would let her spend her whole life in prison.
Don't want to make a big deal out of it?
Avery sneered that Rebecca was afraid it's not big enough.
As the bodyguards surrounded Avery, Kevin was very embarrassed to remind her, "Avery, please go with us."
Because of this matter, Kevin spoke to her without a flattering attitude, "The president ordered you to take you back to the presidential palace first, and you're not allowed to go out without his orders until the matter has been investigated."

That meant house arrest.
Avery smoothed her hair and smiled calmly, "What if I don't go with you?"
Kevin winked at the bodyguards, who took out their guns.
They all aimed the guns at Avery.
Avery stood behind Evan, so the guns were also inevitably aimed at Evan.
Without thinking, Robert took out his gun, and his men aimed at the bodyguards opposite.
For a moment, the huge ward was immersed in the deadlock of confrontation. As Logan took part in his bodyguards away, the rest of the bodyguards had no advantage in the number.
But this tense situation still scared Olivia enough. She has never seen such a scene.
She smiled first, "Put the guns down first."
As Olivia was nervous, Avery took the initiative to hold her hand. Sure enough, the palm of Olivia was full of sweat.
"Put the guns down!" As the cold and fierce voice sounded, Avery and Olivia were stunned, and they did not expect that Evan gave the order first. Evan then said, "I'll go with you."
Avery did not know what he was thinking. Although Rebecca had plotted to disfigure her face, she did not expect Rebecca to be the one who was disfigured in the end.
But if all the evidence pointed to Avery, she couldn't stay out of it.
Although their current situation was not much better, Olivia, frowning slightly, was a little dissatisfied, and she pulled Avery behind her, "No one will take her away!"
Though Olivia was scared, she protected Avery behind, which made Avery feel warm, "Mom."
"Don't worry, and I'll protect you."
Evan said with a tight face, "I don't want her to get hurt either."
"Who are you? What's your name?" Olivia finally remembered to ask his identity. Just now, she had been focusing on Rebecca's injury, so she had never had a chance to dispel her confusion. Judging from the man's attitude towards her daughter, the relationship between them must not be simple.

"Evan Howel."
"You are Mr. Howel? Rebecca's fiance?"
Evan preferred nothing to do with Rebecca in front of Avery's mother.
"Mom, let's go with them."
Avery took Olivia's hand and didn't want to explain too much. Their relationship was complicated. She didn't figure out how to explain it to her mother.
The crux of the problem now was that they had to go with the housekeeper first.
"Why are we going with them? They are all unreasonable."
Avery, "..."
She thought her mother was more innocent than she was.
"Please," Kevin asked his own men to put away their guns and politely invited them out.
Although Olivia did not want to, she was pulled away by Avery.
As the elevator went down, the protest outside the gate became increasingly clearer.
"We can't let the princess be disfigured in vain!"
"We hope that the President will inform us of the results and progress of the investigation on a daily basis."
At this time came Rebecca's voice, "The President has always been fair. I believe he will investigate this matter clearly. Thank you for your concern. We will announce to you any progress about the investigation. Please go back first. This is the hospital, and it's not good to affect other patients."
Her words left a good impression on the public.
"Our princess is so kind. Though she is a victim, she is still thinking of others!"
"Our princess, don't worry. We are here with you."
Kevin took them away through the back door, and Avery didn't pay attention to what else was said. It became more and noisier.
They had to cross the inpatient building to the back door, and there was only an open door at the gate of the inpatient building.
By this time, the door was already full of people, who all had Avery's photos in their hands. As soon as they saw Avery, they immediately rushed over.
The bodyguards reacted quickly and immediately formed human shields in front of Avery.
"That's her! It is this woman who hurt the princess!"
"This vicious woman is bound to be punished."
Someone took the lead in throwing things first. Soon, all kinds of eggs, tomatoes, apples, and bananas flew around. These people began to throw things to Avery.
Fortunately, with the bodyguards and Evan blocking her, Avery didn't get hit, but an egg hit Evan on the head because he was tall.

Far Strider
A college student finds himself transported into a strange land with burgeoning magical powers, and is taken in by Ned Stark. Will he sink or swim in this medieval society, and will he ever get home? ====================== OC-insert without knowledge of Game of Thrones, new planeswalker. Slow power ramp. Second crossover: Star Wars (around chapter 39). ======================= As a note, I started this as a speed writing challenge to myself. The challenge was successful, and I managed 100,000+ words (as well as some character sheets in excel and such) over 10.5 days. Then I had to stop and let my hands recover from their burgeoning carpal tunnel syndrome. The story currently stands at around 150,000 words (or ~550 RRL pages) over 54 chapters; expect a chapter a day until I've caught up with the backlog. The focus of this story was not quality writing, and that hasn't changed. I mostly use it as my semi-guilty "I need to write something, but am not focused enough to write something good" story. Expect self-indulgent writing in general, and a bit of OP (or, well, more than just a bit if we're being honest), especially later in the story as the protagonist matures into a more full-blown Planeswalker. But if you're looking for something with a power-ramping protagonist romping around the place, something you'd be a bit embarrassed to admit liking (I know I am) but like anyways (and come on, this is RRL, so that probably describes just about everyone here who actually has shame), then this may be a nice bit of mental junk food for you.
