Chapter 863 He Did That?
“If memory serves, your wife is barely a year older than Georgia herself. Yet you had no qualms bedding her when she was still a young girl!”
Efren spoke calmly, staring Byron down.
He had anticipated this accusation and prepared his counterattack, even investigating Cora and Georgia’s exact ages.
Stunned by the rebuttal, Byron blustered, “That’s not the same!”
“How so?” Efren pressed.
Byron snapped, “You’ve known Georgia since she was a kid.”
“Don’t make me reveal what happened with your wife before eight-year medical school,” Efren said calmly, unfazed.
Cora was very curious about what had happened before she entered eight-year medical school that Efren could use to threaten Byron.
But Byron, who had been fuming with rage just moments before, now fell ominously silent, though his eyes still burned at Efren.
Cora’s gaze bounced anxiously between them. There was some secret that she knew nothing about.
Just then, the sound of Georgia’s parents and grandparents echoed as they rushed toward the room.
“What’s happened to my precious grandchild?”
They could be heard coming from far away before they even arrived.
Those already in the hospital room knew they were on their way.
Hearing them approach, Efren reluctantly let go of Georgia’s hand.
It was not the time to shock the Hansen elders with their relationship.
Also, with Georgia still lying in the hospital, more distress could make the elders end up hospitalized too.
Seeing this, Byron’s fury subsided slightly.
Cora took his hand soothingly, only for him to pull her close and hiss, “We’ll talk about this when we get home!”
She gaped, bewildered.
She was innocent, right?
Why was she being blamed for the men’s quarrei?
At that moment, Georgia’s parents and grandparents crowded into the room.
“Goodness, she’s so pale!”
“Georgia, dear, what’s wrong?”

After a while, they noticed Efren’s presence too.
“Efren? What are you doing here?”
Before he could respond, Byron cut in venomously, “He claims he found Georgia poisoned with drugs. But clearly, he’s the one who drugged her!”
The elders looked between Efren and Byron, baffled.
They had always trusted Efren.
And with so many women eager for him, why would he risk both families for something like that?
Besides, Byron and Efren were old friends, especially before the Serranos moved to Cloudville.
This sudden hostility between them made no sense at all!
