Chapter 94 An Uninvited Guest

I discreetly opened the door, slipping out of that private room and back into the main hall.

Then I carried on as if nothing had happened, warmly greeting the guests and old clients. The long-time clients had become like family to us, supporting the entire Murphy family over the years.

Everyone in the Murphy family was beaming with pride, especially Matthew. He proudly introduced our daughter to the guests, and I shook my head in disbelief.

The woman I saw was Lauren, who had been injured a few days earlier in a fight with Matthew. It seemed her injuries had almost healed. She was directing the sizable group to the room across from ours.

Moreover, I noticed that among the later arrivals were our own guests. A sense of unease washed over me. Just then, Lauren signaled to one of the young men and pointed at the door, saying, "Open it!"

My mind was a mess. Was she trying to expose an affair? The young man unlocked the door with a room

I realized something and quickly left Atlas's embrace. I rushed out of the room, lifting my dress as I ran.

As soon as I left the room, I heard a woman scream from the other room, followed by a man yelling, "W-
