Chapter 78: Chapter 78
"So it was you." Old Sir Guan smiled, not bringing up any other matters, "I haven’t seen you in a long time."
"Old Sir Guan, this is a painting my beast husband created by hand, wishing your granddaughter a happy first birthday and all the best."
Song Chen stood beside Yu Man, took out the wrapped painting, and handed it to the butler beside him.
"Just a painting! You dare to present this?"
A female, surrounded by a crowd, walked arrogantly over to Yu Man.
That female wasn’t very tall, even in towering heels over ten centimeters high, she still wasn’t at eye level with Yu Man.
She sneered, "Oh, now I see who it is, it’s you, Yu Man!"
Seeing Yu Man made her so angry her eyes turned red!
If no one was shielding Yu Man, she would have had her taken care of long ago!
Yu Man’s eyes turned cold, as expected, she had known she would run into someone she disliked.
"I was wondering who was being so loud, turns out it’s Miss Taro."
Taro O’Reilly, the female who once forced her to divorce.
Yu Man smiled lightly, "It’s been years, and Miss Taro hasn’t changed a bit."
"Yu Man, what gives you the right to be proud here? Weren’t you abandoned by Blanwen!" Taro glared at her through gritted teeth.
"Who exactly abandoned whom?" Yu Man said slowly, "Miss Lota needs to get it clear, I didn’t want Blanwen, he didn’t abandon me."
It was she who proposed the divorce. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novel⸺fire.net
Blanwen was hiding something in the first place, he didn’t handle his own affairs before marrying her.
Rather than get entangled with these people, it’s better to just walk away.
Yu Man doesn’t lack men.
"But Miss Taro, you insisted on competing with me for my beast husband, so why haven’t you brought Blanwen home now that I’m done with him?"
"Oh, perhaps I should say, how come there hasn’t been any happy news from you two for so long?"
Yu Man curved her lips, giving Taro a languid look, "Could it be, he’s not interested in you?"
"Yu Man!" Taro was enraged and swung her palm at Yu Man, "You want to die!"
Yu Man reached out, caught Taro’s wrist, and shoved her away.
Taro stumbled, and if it weren’t for the beast husband supporting her from behind, she would have fallen to the ground.
"Taro, seems a few years in jail didn’t teach you anything, huh?"
"Ah! Yu Man!" Taro, remembering the past, was nearly driven to smoke with rage!
Yu Man lightly wiped her hand, as if she had touched something dirty when encountering Taro.
Back then, the Reed family and the Ore family had plans for an alliance by marriage.
Blanwen was already with her, just not yet married.
Blanwen didn’t want to be with Taro, he hadn’t even settled things with his family before he went with her to get the certificate, forcing his family to compromise.
At that time, Blanwen was her second beast husband.
The Reed family indeed compromised, but they had one condition, which was for her to marry into the Reed family.
But she was never one to compromise, and hated the attitude of those people, as if her marrying into the Reed family was their great honor.
Following that, a persistent Taro who always liked Blanwen came seeking her out, forcing her to divorce.
The Ore family pressed on, ruining her future.
Yu Man set a trap, involving the Female Protection Association, and before they knew the truth, she had them face off with the Ore family.
Yu Man presented the evidence, accusing Taro of engaging with another’s beast husband, coercing a wife to divorce, among other charges, putting Taro in prison just like that.
Though it was only three years, it was enough to leave the Ore family utterly embarrassed.
"Are you all dead? Hit her for me!" Taro viciously pinched her beast husband.
The beast husband hesitated, males would be imprisoned for seriously assaulting females!
"Miss Taro, shouting for violence on the Guan family’s grounds, isn’t that rather disrespectful?"
A young man of noble birth stepped out from the crowd.
His hair was a neat red-brown cut, with a casual smile at the corners of his mouth.
When Taro saw him, her expression turned strained.
He approached step by step, his gaze landing on Yu Man.
"Auntie..." he called softly.
Yu Man’s gaze fell on his face, which bore a striking resemblance to Blanwen’s, and replied coolly, "I’ve divorced your uncle, don’t call me Auntie."
Meadon scratched his head and sighed regretfully, "Alright, then can I call you Man?"
"I’m not fit to accept that title from you." Yu Man’s peripheral vision glanced at Meadon’s hair.
Their Reed family bloodline mostly integrated Red Fox genes, the red-brown hair was practically their family insignia.
"Man, please don’t say that." Meadon pleaded, "It was my uncle who upset you, it’s not related to me..."
"You can’t implicate me in this, okay!"
Back then, he really liked this sister figure! When he knew his uncle was marrying Yu Man, he was overjoyed!
Yu Man lowered her gaze, saying nothing more.
Meadon was secretly delighted! What did this mean? It meant Auntie had softened towards him!
"You all!" Seeing how Yu Man and Meadon completely ignored her, Taro was on the verge of madness!
She furiously stepped forward, but then suddenly felt dizzy...
A burst of gasps erupted from the crowd, tinged with stifled laughter.
"Is she... so angry she transformed into her beast form?" Someone, unafraid of the Ore family, laughed outright!
"Haha! So that’s what her beast form looks like? No wonder I’ve never heard what her spirit body is."
Could it be she’s embarrassed to say?
But if Taro had been upfront about it, they wouldn’t have mocked. After all, one’s beast form is innate.
Yet Taro hid it so much, and to transform in a rage publicly, she can’t blame them for laughing.
"Chirp chirp chirp!" Taro realized her view had lowered, looking down she found two fuzzy paws!
She cried out in shock, but what came out was beast language!
"No way? So mad she can’t even speak?"
They covered their mouths and laughed.
Yu Man looked down to see a scruffy-looking short-tailed quokka emerge from the clothes...
The quokka, with its open mouth, could reveal two teeth above and below.
Actually, Yu Man found quokkas rather endearing and cute, but because this was Taro, she instantly disliked it.
Upon hearing the laughter, Taro was entirely... her whole beast body went bad!
She clung to her beast husband’s pants leg, chirping.
The beast husband, even if he didn’t understand his wife’s words, could guess what she meant, and quickly picked up his beast-formed wife and left!
Once Taro and her beast husband were gone, the laughter in the hall grew even louder!
"No one knows what really happened. Could she truly have been so enraged she couldn’t hold her human form?"
"Who knows? It can’t be because... her genes are unstable?"
Yu Manman hid behind her mom, covering her mouth with laughter, deep in merit and fame...
