Chapter 1376 Humiliation! Hunter's eyes were fierce, but in this moment of pause, several loud slaps sounded in his ears. Manny was slapped heavily again and again, and she collapsed in pain.
Hunter couldn't care less about Selena at this point, and rushed over to Manny, "Manny..." Kaitlyn held her mother's arm, tears of fear streaming down her face. Leia sneered, her eyes filled with killing intent as she stared at the Riddle family, "If the Riddle family dares to touch a hair on Madam Selena, today will be the end of the Riddle family!" Selena looked down at Manny lying on the ground, her lips curling into a shallow smile. "Daphne is too old to hit, but her mouth is too annoying. So | naturally had to find someone to take her place.” "Manny, as Daphne's most beloved person, taking a few slaps for her should be no problem." Manny stood there quietly, trembling, and no one could see the emotions in her eyes.
Seeing this, Daphne's face twisted in anger. "Get her! Throw this little bastard into jail! Let her rot in there!" Upon hearing Daphne's naive rant, no one in the hall knew how to describe her anymore.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA young lady who admired Selena spoke out in anger, "Daphne, are you crazy? The person you're pointing at is Miss Turner, the Anderson family's designated daughter-in-law, the dean of the institute, the first mechanic of H Country, and a distinguished guest of Zone Six..." "Throw her into jail? Are you so tired of living that you're in a hurry to die?!" Daphne was stunned by the long list of titles she had just heard. She despised Selena, so she naturally didn't pay attention to any news about her. Therefore, even though Selena's achievements had been spread throughout the capital, in Daphne's eyes, she was still the orphan girl who had just been brought back from Creephia by the Turner family, without parents and nobody caring for her.
She stared at Selena and trembled as she said, "Regardless, | am your grandmother, your mother is my daughter, aren't you afraid of the retribution for your actions?!" Selena smiled, but there was no warmth in her eyes. She looked confused as she said, "Daphne, you claim to be my grandmother, may | ask why | have never seen you in my first nineteen years?" "My mother is your daughter. Why did she end up alone in Creephia?" "Why, after her death, have you, her so-called mother, not even looked at her for over a decade?" Daphne choked, "I..." Even Daphne, with all her shamelessness, couldn't bring herself to give the reason. Even though the reason was well known to everyone.
"How did we not notice that Daphne is such a shameless person? She lets Selena recognize her as a grandmother without even considering if she's worthy or not!" "Lady Nevaeh died over a decade ago, and Lady Selena has suffered from abuse for over a decade. You didn't even bother to take a look at her, only cared about your precious Penelope. How can you have the nerve to use your blood relation against Lady Selena?!" "Daphne, forgive me for being blunt, but aside from giving birth to Lady Nevaeh, what relationship did you have with her? Lady Nevaeh grew up outside and didn't receive your nurturing. She has been dead for many years, and the favor has already been repaid.” "As for Lady Selena, are you joking? You neither gave birth nor raised her, so why do you have the audacity to act like a grandmother? You're so old, have some shame!" In everyone's eyes, it was only natural for Selena not to acknowledge the Riddle family. Nobody would blame her for this.
Listening to those heart-wrenching accusations, Daphne quivered her lips, wanting to curse but afraid of implicating Manny and getting hit again, so she shut her mouth.
She fell silent, and Selena couldn't be bothered to pay attention anymore, lowering her head to look at Manny on the ground.
She met his cold, disgusted gaze.
Selena smiled, "Miss Turner, are you not convinced?" Manny calmly replied, "Miss Turner may have a noble status, but she is not qualified to use violence against others at will!" Selena looked down on him, her dark eyes sparkling with sharpness, "My father, Callum, is the number one physician in H Country, and my mother, Nevaeh, is the number one perfumer in H Country. | am Miss Turner." "And you're just an unknown mistress. If | hit you, you can only take it, understand?" Hunter's face was gloomy, "Selena, you're going too far!" Selena smiled lightly, "I'm just picking on her, what can you do?" Hunter's temples bulged as if he wanted to pounce on her and tear her apart.
Selena's lips curved into a triumphant smile, "You can ask everyone here whether it's my fault for hitting her or she deserved it." As soon as Selena finished speaking, someone immediately spoke up, "Of course it's that mistress's fault! She doesn't even know her place, daring to show up in this kind of occasion, she deserved to be beaten!" "That's right, not only did she cause the death of Nevaeh, but she also didn't spare the daughter. Such a cruel and vicious woman deserves to be beaten by anyone!" "Miss Riddle was suddenly sent out for a marriage alliance, and isn't that her doing? She didn't kill that child through the juvenile detention center, but found another way. Who wouldn't want to beat her?" Unexpectedly, almost everyone was on Selena's side, accusing Manny.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFirstly, Selena's current status and wealth meant that almost no one could afford to offend her. Secondly, the scandal involving the Riddle family was no longer a secret. Who would stand up for such a heartless mistress?! While it was common for aristocrats to keep mistresses and lovers, it was rare to see such malice.
The young ladies and rich women present all looked at Manny with disgust.
Hunter was shaking with anger, but he didn't dare to do anything to Selena. He could only stare at Hattie, who was being manipulated by Selena.
But he suddenly remembered that Leon had warned him that if he dared to do anything to Hattie, he would be retaliated against twice as much on Kaitlyn.
Afraid that Selena would target Kaitlyn, Hunter could only swallow his anger.
Manny hung her head, her voice almost squeezed out through her teeth, "Miss Turner... I'll take your lesson.” Selena smiled lightly and reached out to touch Hattie's hair.
It was the first time Hattie had seen the appearance of the scum man and woman who had killed her mother, being humiliated and humbled in front of her. She felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart.
Selena was right. As long as she became powerful enough, she could eventually kill these two people and avenge her mother! Seeing that the farce had come to an end, Nicholas, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up, "Is Selena also interested in gambling stones?"
