Chapter 347 Being Played Like a Fool
Lachlan looked at Harlow and Penelope, sneering as he asked, "When did I become your brother- in-law? When did I become your boyfriend?"
A look of unease flashed across Harlow's face. "You're already my brother-in-law, aren't you?" she said.
She turned to Raphael and said urgently, "Mr. MacDonald, Lachlan is my cousin's husband. I'm his sister-in-law! Really... really..."
Penelope's face turned red as she gritted her teeth and said, "You... you hit me so you have to take responsibility for me! If you're not my boyfriend, then who is?"
Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but show a look of disdain towards the two women.
Especially those who had seen Penelope with several rich second-generation men in front of the hall before humiliating Lachlan were even more full of contempt.
Several wealthy girls gathered together and laughed mockingly.
"Hmph! Before they acted like they were too good for Lachlan but now they insist that he's their boyfriend or brother-in-law!"
"That's right! They're usually so arrogant. It turns out that they have no shame."
Maxwell's expression at this moment was even worse.
He had been pursuing Penelope for a long time but she had always been elusive towards him.
Unexpectedly today she first actively approached Raphael, then insisted that Lachlan was her boyfriend next.
This young master from the the Chambers family felt deeply struck!
Being a bootlicker until having nothing left...
At this moment, Lachlan looked at Harlow and Penelope with an "oh" sound as he nodded his head slightly.
"So it turns out like this?"
The next second he smiled saying, "Why bother? Why does Mr. MacDonald recognize me as his brother? Because I can cure his illness."
As he spoke these words again while looking at both women, "I say, his disease can be cured! Understand?"
Hearing these words, Penelope and Harlow were stunned for a few seconds before finally reacting.
"Ah?"
They looked at Raphael who was wearing clothes by now, and their eyes suddenly lit up.
Lachlan's words made them finally realize something...
That was right!
Why did Raphael call himself brothers with Lachlan?
It must be because Lachlan cured his illness!
So what reason did they have to resist Raphael?
A wealthy young man without skin problems, with strong family background, and handsome appearance, wasn't that their dream prince charming?
At this point if Raphael wanted to do something with them, it would be what they desired most anyway!
This was a great opportunity to get close to Raphael, wasn't it? With this thought in mind, Harlow stopped struggling and her face once again showed a charming smile.
"Mr. MacDonald, if you like me just say it... no need to let them catch me! I... I won't run away. It's an honor for me to be liked by you."
Penelope also smiled at Raphael and showed a shy expression, "Mr. MacDonald, sorry about that... I misspoke earlier. Lachlan is not my boyfriend... in fact, I'm still single! And I've never had a boyfriend before..."
Upon hearing this, the whole room erupted into boos!
Raphael smirked, "Oh? I've fallen for you both. Will you come back and serve me?"
"Yes!"
"Of course we will!"
Harlow and Penelope nodded repeatedly.
"Well then, that's what you said!" Raphael chuckled mischievously as he suddenly tore off his shirt revealing his wrinkled upper body like tree bark.
"Ahh!" Harlow and Penelope exclaimed in shock.
Covering their mouths with their hands, they turned pale with fear and disgust.
"What... what happened?" Harlow asked uncertainly while Penelope's previously coy expression was replaced by revulsion and hesitation as she looked at Raphael taking an involuntary step back.
"Lachlan," she continued hesitantly, "Didn't you cure Mr. MacDonald?"
Lachlan sneered, "I only said I could cure him but didn't say when it would happen."
He chuckled coldly, " Ha ha..."
Looking at the reactions of the two women, Raphael snorted disdainfully, "You two are really cheap!"
Then he changed his tone teasingly, "What? Are you scared seeing my bark-like appearance again? Don't worry; Lachlan will eventually cure me completely. Have either of you considered becoming my woman? Of course today I'm feeling generous so if neither of your wants to, then there's no need."
Hearing these words, Harlow's and Penelope's expressions changed once again from fear and disgust into restlessness and hesitation...
"I…I…"
"Well actually…"
Their faces kept changing rapidly; the phrase "I'm willing" seemed ready to slip out any moment now...
"Hahaha…"
At that moment, Raphael let out a hearty laugh, his face full of teasing humor. Lachlan couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head in disbelief. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Looks like they're willing again, Mr. MacDonald."
Raphael said with a laugh, "This is hilarious! These two women are fickle. I have no interest in these kinds of women at all! How about I give them to you?"
Lachlan snorted and replied, "I'm married already! And my wife is much prettier than them. Don't gross me out."
"Hahaha... Of course, of course!"
"Then let's get rid of them before they dirty our eyes!" Raphael laughed a few times before waving to his subordinates and saying, "Let them go!"
At this point, the entire conference hall erupted into laughter.
Everyone looked at Harlow and Penelope with disdainful expressions.
Looking at the two women was like watching a joke unfold right before their eyes.
Lachlan and Raphael walked out of the hall laughing together while Harlow and Penelope stood there with faces so red.
Feeling everyone's mocking gazes on them and hearing their unfiltered laughter ringing in their ears made Harlow and Penelope wish they could just disappear into thin air.
They now realized that Lachlan and Raphael had played them for fools in front of so many people!
In front of everyone present here today, they had exposed themselves as nothing more than laughingstocks!
Meanwhile Romeo's face turned grim while Altha felt too ashamed to even lift his head up high anymore.
Their daughter (granddaughter) had really embarrassed themselves today!
