Chapter 323 The Show Begins Raegan was giving Sherry an opportunity to save herself, but that didn't mean Raegan planned to let Sherry off the hook. After all, Sherry had incited those unreasonable netizens to make a scene around the kindergarten Janey had attended, leaving a scar on Janey's innocent mind. That was unforgivable.
The fact that Sherry was manipulated wasn't important. All that mattered was that Sherry's true colors had been revealed. She was evil and that was all.
Instead of doing the right things, she decided to use her fame and influence in the wrong ways.
"Don't get ahead of yourself! I don't need your help. I can handle this just fine!" Sherry sneered. She thought of
Raegan as a young woman who was nothing more than a newbie in the world of entrepreneurship.
Sherry assumed someone as young and pretty as Raegan must have a long history with men and have sold herself for opportunities for a promising career. Therefore, she deemed Raegan had no rights or qualifications to try to negotiate with her. After all, she was the supposed victim in the unfolding drama. As long as she played her part well, she would have both money and fame at her disposal.
With that mindset, Sherry reacted even more violently. "Who the hell do you think you are, you bitch? You're nothing but a hopeless idiot! You should start worrying more about yourself!" Raegan's eyes narrowed darkly. She knew any further argument would be
hopeless. There was nothing that could convince Sherry at that moment. It was time for the public to see who Sherry truly was. J Raegan stood, working up a faint smile.
"Well, I wish you luck with your conference." Without waiting for a reply, she walked away confidently.
Sherry couldn't help but stare in jealousy at Raegan's figure, her back adorned with graceful curves as she walked. Raegan walked with the inherent grace of a wealthy heiress.
Sherry always wished to be like that, but of course, life never gave her what she wished for. As she stared, Sherry felt a mixture of rage and jealousy ignite in her heart.
Sherry's eyes darkened as she muttered, "Don't be so condescending! I'm sure that the public will make you run with your tail between your legs."
The press conference Sherry held started right on time. She'd changed into a white dress, wanting to give off the appearance of a pitiful and innocent woman. It was a clever tactic.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLauren was sitting right in the center of the audience. She was one of Sherry's clothing sponsors for the event, and she came to watch the drama unfold firsthand. After all, the whole drama was her doing. So how could she miss it? She couldn't wait to see Raegan's reputation dashed to the rocks as people labeled Raegan a home wrecker.
Lauren sneered. It still boiled her blood how Raegan acted like she could do as she pleased with Mitchel's support.
Lauren still felt so much embarrassment when she recalled how Mitchel kicked her out of the restaurant. She didn't dare to go back
there. There was no way she was letting this go! Lauren was going to make. Raegan suffer the same humiliation she had no matter what. She desired to see Raegan's reaction when being branded a home wrecker and cursed by the public even more.
Suddenly, Raegan strode in confidently and sat next to Lauren.
Lauren's eyes nearly bugged out of her head. "You? How can you..." Lauren bit back the rest of her words. She'd almost spilled everything just now.
Composing herself, Lauren asked, "What are you doing here?" Raegan gave a brilliant grin. "Is there any reason why I can't be here?" Lauren was taken aback. It soon hit her though, that Raegan was wearing a pair of oversized sunglasses. It was
clear Raegan was trying to hide in disguise.
Lauren's shocked expression morphed into a smile. "You're right! There isn't.
Please make yourself comfortable!" Raegan returned the smile with one of her own and adjusted her sunglasses.
She sat next to Lauren to watch the show, so she didn't want to draw too much attention to herself. She wasn't the star today.
The crowd was full of those unreasonable netizens, an orchestrated maneuver by Sherry.
Lauren was beyond ecstatic. She cursed Raegan in her head. She thought Raegan was doomed today.
Those misled public opinions would definitely tear Raegan apart! Lauren exchanged a meaningful glance with Sherry on the stage. Sherry had noticed Raegan and somewhat
admired the latter's nerve to show up.
For the sake of a promising future with heightened popularity, Sherry-decided to put on a grand performance today.
The show started with Sherry bringing out the waterworks, crying as she spoke to the crowd. "I'm so sorry, everyone." She was apologizing for rolling the gossip mills.
Then, Sherry smoothly transitioned into narrating her love story with her husband, tears still running down her cheeks.
Her words moved those misled folks, who began shouting encouragements.
"Don't cry, Sherry!" "You're so strong, my queen! Keep | going!" "Sherry, why are you apologizing to us? You did nothing wrong!"
There were some reporters in the audience whom Sherry had hired. They asked questions she had given them.
"Mrs. Blake, what do you think about the recent scandal of your husband cheating?" "Do you know who the home wrecker is who destroyed your marriage?" They fired question after question, just as Sherry had told them to.
Sherry lifted teary eyes to the crowd.
"Everyone, I trust my husband. He isn't a man who would cheat of his own accord. I firmly believed it would only happen when he was drugged and seduced. And as for the woman who did it... Well, she's here right now! You can just ask her the questions you have." A wave of gasps rolled over the audience and everyone began looking |
around, wondering who it could be.
Raegan was unfazed. She knew it was a false accusation, so she had no reason to react.
Right then, Lauren decided to add fuel to the drama by pushing Raegan and sporting a pained expression while exclaiming, "Raegan! How could you continue to be so shameless? Do you not have restraint? Going as far as provoking a man's wife like this!" Immediately, all eyes turned to them.
The reporters surrounded Lauren in an instant, fighting to shove their mics in front of her to hear her words.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSome knew Lauren already, so they asked, "Miss Murray, is this a friend of yours? What did you mean by those words?" Lauren slapped her hand over her . . \ .
mouth, acting like she'd said
something she shouldn't have. "I didn't say anything about her seducing my boyfriend before! Don't put words in my mouth!" - The reporters put things together quickly. "You mean this lady has meddled in your relationship before?" "Please... That's all in the past... Be careful what you say before you make the powerful men supporting Raegan punish you." Lauren was acting like she was worried for the reporters.
"Forget about me. Let's focus on what happened to Sherry," she said gently.
The reporters were painting the story in their head. Lauren looked pitiful and couldn't speak about things because she was being pressured.
Some insane people brought Lauren's story without thinking and began to throw water bottles at Raegan in a fit of anger.
Victor wasted no time catching them all and flinging them back at those assaulters with more than enough strength. The force of the hits sent several of them falling down in pain.
That got everyone quiet very quickly.
The reporters, spotting new prey, swarmed Raegan instead.
"Why are you at this press conference, Miss? Is what Miss Murray said true?" "Did you really seduce Miss Murray's ex, and now Mrs. Blake's husband?" "Miss Murray said you have supporters? Is that true? How many are there?" The reporters did not mince their words. They were asking the questions as though they already knew Lauren's words to be true. It was clear Sherry set this whole thing up.
Instantly, the misled folks got rowdy again.
"What a shameless whore! Stealing men frequently!" "How do I share the earth with such a disgusting human being?" "Wow! Women like her must have slept with thousands of men. She probably carries loads of infections and STDs. You better stay away!" Hearing all this, Lauren had to try her hardest not to burst out laughing. She was so overjoyed. She just said a few words, and now the crowd was doing everything she wanted for her.
Unbeknownst to them, there was someone waiting backstage. Mitchel.
His aura was so noble that it made him seem unapproachable. He watched the scene unfolding with pinched brows.
Matteo had to speak up. "Do you think
| we should do something, Mr. Dixon?"
