Chapter 540: Chapter 543: Rumors Arise
Even at this point, she’s still protecting someone who hurt her.
“Come on, let me help you up. Let’s go back first.” Mrs. Holbrook helped Hannah Ford up and struggled to get her into the car.
But she didn’t even think about whether Emily Taylor had anything directly to do with Hannah’s fall.
Without her intentional guidance, would Mrs. Holbrook have ever thought that Emily hurt Hannah?
Mrs. Holbrook helped Hannah get into the car before turning around.
“Madam.” She looked at Emily Taylor, “Madam, I’m going to take Miss Hannah back now. Please don’t be angry anymore. Miss Hannah is just worried about the young master, and it’s all out of good intentions…”
She wanted to continue to speak, but considering her position, she held back.
“…I’m taking Miss Hannah away now.”
Mrs. Holbrook, at this point, was completely committed to helping Hannah.
Although she was a servant of the Lucas family, she was openly confronting Madam for Hannah’s sake.
Emily Taylor gave her a cold glance. Her feelings about Mrs. Holbrook had always been complicated.
“Take her away. It would be best if… she moves out on her own initiative. Don’t just keep living in the villa.”
Mrs. Holbrook hesitated upon hearing these words.
She wanted to plead for Hannah, but in the end, she didn’t directly confront Emily.
“I understand, madam. Then, I shall take my leave.”
Mrs. Holbrook returned to the car with mixed feelings.
Looking at Hannah in the corner, appearing down and dejected, she couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.
Why couldn’t Madam tolerate Miss Hannah?
A good and weak-natured child like her; didn’t Madam hate home-wrecking third parties back in the day?
Lily Gray was the one who had stepped in between Miss Hannah and the young master.
Why would Madam…
Sigh… In any case, she had to help Miss Hannah.
Mrs. Holbrook made up her mind.
As for Emily’s words about moving out of the villa, she had already filtered them out.

In just a few short days, several rumors spread throughout the upper-class circle in A City.
For example, Mr. Lucas’s past first love had returned.
Not only had she returned, but she was also brought back to live in the villa with Mr. Lucas.
On the other hand, Lily Gray, his legitimated wife, was chased back to her parents’ home.
A few days later, a new follow-up appeared.
It turned out that not long ago, Mr. Lucas was injured and was taken back to the Lucas family’s mansion to recuperate.
As a result, that first love went to visit him at the mansion.
But who knew that Mrs. Lucas would refuse her at the door.
It was said that she had been harshly humiliated, very pitiful and down on her luck.
However, things got even more explosive as rumors emerged that Mr. Lucas had heard about the incident afterward.
He actually quarreled with Mrs. Lucas.
Not only did his condition worsen from the agitation, but he also declared that he would move back to the villa once he healed.
He would never return to the Lucas family mansion again!
From his actions, it seemed like he was defending his first love, even going against the entire family for her.
For a time, the whole upper-class circle was discussing the matter.
Soon, news spread from A City to other areas.

In B City’s Presidential Palace, a stunningly beautiful woman with an extraordinary figure and demeanor was lazily reclining on a sofa.
She held a fluffy white kitten in her arms, gently stroking it with her delicate, boneless fingers.
Those narrow almond-shaped eyes, so similar to Aidan Lucas’s, were filled with a cold smile.
Her eyes sparkled with the brilliance of flowing light.
“Heh… so it seems that my cheap older brother has really fallen for that Miss Ford of the Ford family?”
