Cassius who had heard everything in silence finally broke into a faint laughter. He stepped away from the two deadbeats, sitting down on the chair that was placed beside Arabella and leaned on it. Though it was an old furniture when he sat on it, the chair looked as if it had been handed out from one descendant to another as an heirloom.
With an ease laziness he clicked the teacup that was empty, pretending that he was drinking it when there was nothing inside as he spoke, "So let me rephrase your words for you.

Then you saw her adding something into your food and now you claimed that she's a witch who had tricked you into marriage when you had nothing? Not in looks or wealth?"
Both Mrs Rath's face and Charles's face turned bright red as Cassius had read through their pride and egos.
