Chapter 38 The Bravery To Burn Her Boats After Curtis issued a statement, there was another wave of criticism against Aurelia on the internet.
The hottest topic was that Aurelia could consider staying in a psychiatric hospital for a while.
Sprofessionals were even brought in. They accused Aurelia of being delusional, claiming that she was so in love with her boyfriend that the mere presence of another woman by his side had her perceive the woman as an imaginary enemy. Indeed, it would be necessary to consult a psychologist in such a situation.
These people cforward almost immediately on the heels of Curtis issuing a statement.
The local trending searches had already blown up.
Matthew flipped through his phone in the car. Although the driver was driving, he could still feel a palpable tension in the air, so much so that he hardly dared to breathe.
Gordon, who had just gotten into the car halfway through the journey, immediately noticed Matthew's gloom. With a swift glance, his eyes landed on the screen of Matthew's phone.
He promptly said tactfully, “Mr. Quigley, I just saw quite a number of so-called experts popping up on the inteand spreading false knowledge. My sense of righteousness reared its head, and I couldn't bear to see the public deceived, so I found speople to expose these experts. Within an hour, their affiliated. companies will issue statements, and they will no longer have the opportunity to spout nonsense in the future.
What does those fools know? They merely accepted money from the Leedon family to spout nonsense! Matthew locked his phone screen, then rolled down the car window and lit a cigarette.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPerhaps I've invested too much thought into this matter concerning Aurelia. It might inadvertently give her unnecessary ideas and speculations. Well...
After pondering for a few minutes, he immediately turned to Gordon with a serious face and said. “There's no need for drastic measures. Just quell the rumors online," Upon hearing that, Gordon was taken aback. He's reluctant to help Aurelia now? After leaving Starry Sea Mansion, Aurelia told David that she would probably be a little late.
Then, she drove to the police station where she lodged a police report last time.
On the way there, numerous Whatmessages and phone calls cin. She saw the screenshot Nancy sent her. It was Curtis' statement on social media.
The statement read that she had always been prone to jealousy, believing every woman who appeared by his side to be his mistress. It went on to say that Melanie was an innocent victim caught up in the situation through no fault of her own. He apologized on her behalf to Melanie and all those whom she ever hurt.
"Curtis is such a jerk! He has lost all his conscience. Auri, I just posted on Twitter. I'll speak for you." Nancy was about to burst'a blood vessel, revolted by Curtis' actions first thing in the morning. Chapter 38 The Bravery To Burn Her Boats When Aurelia saw Curtis' statement, a pang of pain still hit her, although she had long since been mentally prepared.
She took a deep breath, her beautiful eyes dark. She first thanked Nancy for her help, then said she was en route to the police station before hanging up the phone.
When she was about to resdriving, she received a call from Luna.
The woman's voice was no longer as condescending as it was earlier.
"Now that things have cto this, I know you must have suffered sgrievances. If anyone is to be blamed, it's the boyfriend you found. He's the one who caused all this trouble. Mel is innocent. You can't hold her responsible, so you should apologize. Once you've apologized on Instagram, we'll figure out a way to brush this under the rug. Then, we'll send you abroad to study. When you return, you'll have the experience of studying overseas. At that time, your father will arrange a position for you in the company and a good marriage. It won't be a loss for you, just a temporary setback." Upon hearing that, Aurelia felt a strong urge to laugh and laughed aloud.
"What are you laughing about?" Aurelia stopped laughing. “I'm laughing about the absurdity of the lot of you, always daydreaming." "What ill manners, Aurelia! Who on earth taught you to speak to your mother like this?" Luna questioned angrily. Is she really not afraid that the Leedon family would issue a statement to sever all ties with her that she's repeatedly talking back to us and constantly angeringwith outrageous remarks? Aurelia tapped the steering wheel lightly a couple of times. "It's Melanie who's gone too far, and you who can't distinguish right from wrong, Mdm. Campbell. The Leedon family doesn't even have a shred of manners. Don't you find it shameful to use that word to scold me? Tell Melanie that if she goes overboard. she'll end up shooting herself in the foot. I shall see how she's going to smooth things over then." Having been given a new lease of life, she had nothing to fear.
With her family and friends at her back, she had the bravery to burn her boats.
Suppressing the faint pain in her heart, she finally stated, “Mdm. Campbell, I was blind in the past to have tried to please you all. You are not worthy to be my mother." Luna stared at the phone that had been disconnected, her mind buzzing.
For reasons she couldn't quite grasp, she found herself constantly dwelling on Aurelia's words.
She said I'm not worthy to be her mother? I'm the wife of Gideon Leedon, and I'm reputable in Jacaster. My three sons were all leaders in their respective fields, and my daughter, Melanie, is beautiful and talented She's the only one, switched at birth, whom I look down upon and reprimanded. That deemsunworthy? Had it been in the past, she would never have taken Aurelia's words to heart. But presently, she felt uncomfortable all over.
Seeing Luna frown, Melanie felt a sense of unease inwardly. "Mom, is Aurelia still unwilling to apologize and settle this matter? Curtis has already stepped out to explain things, yet she still blames me. If all else fails, I'll take the full blame, then go abroad to lay low, allowing her to return home." Chapter 38 The Bravery To Burn Her Boats "Don't bother about her. She's stubborn and set in her ways. Let your brothers handle this as quickly as possible. Don't be too hard on Aurelia," Luna said, her brows furrowed.
Melanie was secretly taken aback, What on earth did Aurelia say just now? Why does it feel like Mom has started brushingoff? I voluntarily offered to apologize and go abroad, but she didn't cutoff or scold Aurelia. Instead, she toldnot to be too hard on Aurelia. Take it easy? No way! While Luna was unaware, Melanie texted her three brothers.
She typed: Just now, Aurelia called. She still refuses to admit her mistake. Nor did she show any respect for Mom.
I feel like I'm the one who caused all this trouble, so I should be the one to end it. Maybe I should take it on myself and admit that Aurelia is speaking the truth.
Benjamin: No, Mel. She has done something wrong, so she should be punished.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAaron: Don't worry. Leave this matter to us.
Spencer: Having Aurelia as a sister is simply troublesome! Upon seeing their replies, Melanie smiled contentedly. After sthought, she also posted on Instagram.
She uploaded a picture of someone with tears in her eyes, accompanied by a caption that read: The innocent E need not claim innocence. Within minutes, droves of people voiced their support for her and expressed their belief in her.
I shall see what else Aurelia can do! Ten minutes later, Melanie already applied a face mask, in high spirits.
She planned to go out shopping later with her friends.
Her role was merely to play victim, and her three brothers would settle the matter. Besides, Aurelia couldn't stir up any trouble at the moment. E Even if the videos were released and discovered, the ghostwriters would cover up the truth behind them. She had nothing to worry about. Just then, Aaron sent a voice message to their group chat.
His tone was urgent.
"Spencer, what is the company's PR team doing? Why are there so many comments targeting Mel on the intenow? No, this video here..." "Mel, you and Curtis went to the hotel together?" 228
