"Why make a big fuss out of it?" Zara Lucas asked Michelle Carter with bloodshot eyes, completely failing to grasp her meaning.
"We should be trying to keep things quiet now. With things having reached this point, if we make an even bigger scene, Aidan Lucas won't let us off!"
Michelle Carter coldly sneered through her tears, "Hmph, who said he would let us go if we keep quiet? Zara, I'll tell you, these prominent families care most about face. If we wisely choose not to make a fuss, just you watch, even if Aidan Lucas doesn't deal with us now, he will never let us go in the future."
"But if we make a big scene now, and everyone in A City knows about Lily Redington and our Austin Lucas checking into a hotel together, caught by Aidan Lucas in an act of infidelity, hmph, the Lucas family, for the sake of their reputation, will absolutely not dare to trouble us. Because as soon as something happens to us, it proves that the rumor is true."
