Chapter 406 A Tricky Guy

June cast a glimpse at Cora, who buried herself into her mom’s arms, “Mrs. Fletcher, it was just a
misunderstanding. We were in a relationship when Cora was in Europe. But she suddenly asked for a
break-up and returned home. I was so confused. So I temporarily put aside my business in Europe and
came for her, only to get a convincing answer. However, I have never expected that she actually
accused me of murdering her as soon as we met. I have no idea what was happening.”

Hearing that, Mrs. Fletcher was rendered more confused.

“Cora, is it true?” she asked Cora.

Cora looked up and glare at June, being a bit more courageous with her parents by her side, “Mom,
he’s talking nonsense! He is an evil! He strangled me as soon as he entered. If not for my struggle, I
would have been killed.”

Mrs. Fletcher then fixed her eyes on June.

June compromised with both hands up, “Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher, I am so sorry about that. I shouldn’t
have hurried into the ward just because of my concern about her illness. But neither did I have any idea
how could that be. She actually mistook me as a murderer against her! I saw her feeling hard to
breathe so I walked over to check, fearing she might be in danger. I did that for no evil intention.”

Cora felt like rage burning in her heart for his shameless excuse.

“June, you bastard! Stop lying! You were here to kill me…”

“Enough!” Bradwen shouted to stop her.

Cora shut her mouth, staring at Bradwen with great disbelief.



Bradwen was so pissed that veins could be clearly seen on his forehead. He clenched his fists hard
and then let go of them. His words sounded powerless, “Cora, you have caused a lot of troubles during
the passing month. No matter if you haven’t shed enough tears or vented out enough grievance, it’s
time to put an end to it. Learn to be mature. Stop acting out of tantrum just like a naughty kid. Your
mom and I are really exhausted because of you.”

Cora stared at her father with great grievance.

“Dad, he did plot to kill me! Don’t you even care about your own girl?” Cora huffed while biting her own
lips hard.

“You even dare to fiddle with suicide! I don’t think a murderer would scare you even if he were.”
Bradwen said wryly to insinuate. Obviously, he didn’t buy it.

The Fletcher Family was at the edge of collapse because of the troubles Cora had stirred up. Bradwen
was rendered so distraught, feeling hard to balance between the family and the business.

Cora was choked, silent.

Apparently, even her mom was on the same side of Bradwen.

“Cora, you have been a grown lady who has experienced everything crazy. I mean miscarriage and
suicide. If you feel good to stay here during your hospitalization of over a month, we can keep you stay.
But now I just hope that you can learn to behave yourself and stop messing around. After all, as our
girl, you should show more consideration about the reputation of the family.” Said Mrs. Fletcher
seriously.

Cora felt like being betrayed. Even her family didn’t trust her. At this moment, she seemed to be
gagged, having no idea how to defend herself.



June took the chance to intervene. He looked the same humble as one of those domestic gentlemen,
making himself friendly enough to be trusted.

“Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher, please don’t be mad. It’s all my fault. I was being too reckless because I am so
eager to know why Cora chose to break up with me. I am so sorry for causing your blame against her. I
am sure she feels really bad for being accused by her loving parents.”

Mrs. Fletcher took a look at him, feeling more satisfied with this foreigner who had been greatly belittled
by Cora.

At lease from her perspective, June looked charming, refined and noble. What was more, he presented
decent manners when talking to the elder. So she reckoned he was one of the most outstanding ones
among the young. Besides, due to the retaliation brought by Zachariah, she even deemed June the
best choice for Cora to marry.

“June, please take a seat. Every misunderstanding could be cleared with thorough explanation.” Mrs.
Fletcher’s attitude had greatly changed.

Now June was sure that he had gained the trust of Mrs. Fletcher.

Cora shouted out of disbelief, “Mom, he is a murderer! He wants to kill me! Just drop your friendliness
for him!”

Mrs. Fletcher cast her a cold glimpse and smiled at June, “June, please get closer to us. My husband
and I want to have a talk with you. You know Cora has been too naive to handle her own temper.
Please don’t mind it.”

June replied impolitely, “Mrs. Fletcher, thanks for your trust. I love Cora and we had been in a
relationship for about four years in Europe. I had mentioned about it in front of my parents as well. I



once planned to invite her home. But then there came the unexpected break-up. So my parents have to
also put it aside.”

Bradwen looked at him from head to toe. Then he asked tentatively, “You were her boyfriend? But Cora
has never told me about it before.”

June lowered his head, looking upset.

“Actually, though we were in a relationship, she confessed to me that she also had a man she truly
loved. So maybe it was her obsession for that man that drove her back home. And that was also the
main reason of that sudden break-up, I supposed. But I love her so much that I can’t simply let it go. So
I made my way through to come here. But neither have I expected that she was so agitated that she
mistook my love as murder. I didn’t mean that! Perhaps my love for her was the only one that should be
blamed.” Said June affectionately.

As sentimental as women had always been, Mrs. Mrs. Fletcher now developed great favor for June
because of his infatuation.

However, Bradwen tended to be more rational as a sophisticated man. He wasn’t that easily convinced
by his words.

“Cora, was that so?”

Cora glared at June, “Dad, stop listening to his nonsense! I have not even dated him before. Zachariah
has been my true love only. And he is just a nobody who lost his goddamn mind! Are you going to be
convinced by someone insane?”

Bradwen couldn’t help frowning when hearing her strong language. However, June still remained
composed, showing nothing fishy.



Bradwen stared at him. As a man who had also been through a lot, he could tell that Cora messed up
with a tricky one this time. However, Cora still failed to realize her awful situation.

“Cora, shut up!” Bradwen scolded loud.

Cora was rendered so aggrieved. Her wrists started to ache even though they had scabbed.

She was so pissed that she walked out of the ward, turning a deaf ear to her mom, who was calling her
behind.

Mrs. Mrs. Fletcher said awkwardly, “June, please forgive her. She has been so spoiled.”
