Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 916 Past Grudges Lady Lauren was taken aback by Selena's sharpness. She didn't expect that such a small flaw could be noticed by Selena and remembered by her.

Lady Lauren looked at the girl's cold and beautiful face and sighed softly, "You don't have to worry about Penelope. You are the girl that my son likes, and the Anderson family will unconditionally support you between you and her." Through the mist of tea, Selena lowered her eyelashes and asked in a soft voice, "So, is Penelope really the blood of both the Anderson family and the Riddle family?" Lady Lauren nodded first, and then shook her head, her tone calm, "In terms of blood relationship, she is the blood of the Anderson family, but she cannot be counted as a member of the Riddle family." "Penelope is David's daughter, her mother's name is Kiera, and Kiera is the true adopted daughter of the Riddle family.

Penelope... is just riding on her mother's coattails." After Lady Lauren finished speaking, she looked at Selena's cold eyes and showed a hint of affection. "Actually, your mother was not happy when she was young, just like you. She was kidnapped at the age of five and wandered outside. She only returned to the Riddle family when she was fifteen and became famous in the fragrance industry." "And during those more than ten years, the Riddle family adopted Kiera, who looked similar to Nevaeh." "The Riddle family is big and wealthy, so they naturally don't mind raising an adopted daughter with their biological daughter.” "But more than a decade of emotional estrangement is not easy to reconcile. Nevaeh and Kiera had a bad relationship, and several things that happened back then were very unpleasant.” "No one knows whether your mother was happy or not in the Riddle family..." As Selena's aura became colder and colder, Lady Lauren paused her words and suddenly became more cheerful. "But she was lucky to have your father love her." Upon hearing this, Selena finally raised her eyes.

Lady Lauren smiled, "Callum was the man that every girl in the capital wanted to marry back then, but he only loved Nevaeh.

With Callum's protection, even if the Riddle family was biased, your mother never suffered when facing Kiera." Selena remembered the stunning woman with wildness in her eyes. So that's how it came about.

"What happened later?" Selena asked.

Lady Lauren's smile disappeared, "Later, Kiera died." "How did she die?" Selena's emotions remained unchanged.

"Car accident,” Lady Lauren frowned. "A lot happened at that time, causing Kiera to change her personality drastically. She kidnapped Nevaeh regardless of the consequences, threatened Callum. Nevaeh had a fiery temper and couldn't stand it. In a fit of rage, she stepped on the accelerator, wanting to die with Penelope." "The car lost control and crashed into the guardrail. Kiera and Nevaeh were both severely injured." "Callum saved Nevaeh, but the doctor in charge of treating Kiera didn't save her." Selena tilted her head slightly, and a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes. "Did Kiera like my father?" Lady Lauren paused for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, Kiera once tried to use underhanded means to ruin the relationship between Callum and Nevaeh, but she failed. Instead, she had a relationship with David by mistake." "And the next day, she blamed Callum for what happened and nearly drove your mother crazy." "Your father, despite looking gentle and handsome, can be ruthless when he needs to be. In order to make Nevaeh believe that he had nothing to do with Kiera, he had Kiera examined in front of many aristocratic families and the media, causing Kiera's reputation to be destroyed overnight.” "Perhaps because of this, Kiera later became so crazy." "And Penelope's existence was kept secret by Kiera. No one knew that she was pregnant, gave birth to a child, and left that child in an orphanage. It wasn't until long after Kiera's death that Penelope's existence was discovered." "Did David like Kiera? And then he hated Callum and Nevaeh because of Kiera's death?" "Yes, David thought Nevaeh was responsible for Kiera's death, and Callum had the ability to save Kiera, but he chose to save Nevaeh first." "He was paranoid and believed that Callum and Nevaeh were responsible for Kiera's death." "So... what role did David play in the Turner family's massacre?" Selena finally asked the sharp question.

Lady Lauren suppressed all the emotions on her face and felt her heart ache. She was silent for a long time before saying slowly, "When your father left, he placed your mother and you, who was still in her womb, in the Turner family, and secretly entrusted the safety of his wife and child to the father of Osvaldo." Selena’s eyelashes trembled.

Callum must have made this decision because he was worried that if he touched the interests of the Far North Laboratory, Lady Nevaeh and the Turner family would suffer retaliation from the Divine Love organization.

Twenty years ago, the Turner family was the most powerful family in the capital, and with the Anderson family, they should have been the most secure protection. So why did such a thing happen later? Lady Lauren saw Selena's pale face and raised her hand to hold her hand. "The rest of the story should be told by Benjamin in person. Selena, | just want to say to you..." "David committed the sin back then, and Benjamin, perhaps even me, didn't keep our promise to protect your mother. We are all to blame, but... Osvaldo really didn't know anything." "He was still a child and didn't understand anything." "After knowing that the Turner family's affairs were related to the Anderson family, he took all the blame upon himself." "He feels very guilty about you..." Lady Lauren remembered Osvaldo's temperament and her eyes revealed a bit of sadness. She pleaded, "Selena, you can blame all of us, but please... don't blame him." Selena's resentment towards Osvaldo is the most poisonous poison in the world for him.

Selena gently withdrew her hand and stood up. "Madam, | must hear the whole story before | can decide how to feel about the Anderson family." "But don't worry," Selena remembered what she had said to Osvaldo. "I won't blame him." After speaking, Selena turned and walked out.

Lady Lauren stood up and followed Selena's back as she walked out. Suddenly, she said, "Selena, what are your plans for the Riddle family?" Selena suddenly stopped in her tracks. She didn’t turn around, but her icy voice was filled with a chilling, bloody aura. "Kiera should be grateful she's dead. Otherwise, | would break her neck, rip out her heart, and scatter her ashes to the wind!"
