Chapter 190
As Finneas said that, he shrugged indifferently. “Thus, without her having to sign anything, we now have nothing to do with each other anymore. Well, she was stupid. If she’d agreed to the divorce back then, she might have gotten a house or two and some money, but she has nothing now.”
Meredith stared at this shameless man. She didn’t know what to say, so she merely stood there blankly with the divorce agreement in hand.
“Alright, I’ve got no time to yak with you. I’m leaving.” Without even sparing the ward a glance, Finneas strode away.
Meredith raised her hand and gazed at the divorce agreement. Megan has been divorced before she’d even regained consciousness. How anguished would she be if she were to learn of this when she wakes up!
Following the tweet by Meredith, the netizens were all the more convinced of the veracity of this matter. The comments underneath were all comforting words for Meredith, and of course, there were also some cursing Selena out. Groundless condemnations against Selena perpetuated on the internet, and some even started a thread damning her to death. Besides, some also started boycotting all products under her company.
Selena was hiding out in the hotel, so no one could find her. For that reason, everyone shifted their attack to her company. Her office building was splashed with red paint and even scrawled with phrases such as ‘b*tch,’ ‘murderer,’ ‘a life for a life,’ and the like. As they gathered outside the building to stage a protest, all employees and processes were affected. Forever Gown and Juniper Fragrances weren’t spared either. Both online and offline sales were affected, and the shop employees were even attacked.
Meanwhile, at Fowler Residence, John and Helen were having lunch together. The television in the dining room happened to be reporting this incident at this time, so Helen sighed as she ate. “I truly
didn’t expect Selena Yard to be such a cruel woman, strangling someone and even pushing her down the escalator. I’ve seen her, and she’s petite, looking very weak.”
John stared at the television emotionlessly. “Of all women who have a net worth over a billion, how many are weaklings?”
“You’re right,” Helen quickly seconded. “I heard that she was penniless when she was kicked out of her family, having nothing besides a child. Yet, she managed to become a president with a net worth of over a billion in just a few years. She’s truly something else. Speaking of that, men stray when they have money, but women only have money when they betray their bodies. This saying remains true throughout the ages.”
John shot her a sidelong glance. Knowing that she’d misspoken, Helen hastily changed the subject. “But Selena Yard and Pierre are dating. If the two of them end up together, what would happen to Jojo and Jamie?”
That remark was a wake-up call to John. Only then did he realize that this matter had something to do with them. Such a cruel woman will definitely mistreat my grandsons! “I’ll handle it.”
Helen nodded and said nothing further.
Too many things had happened at the company that Selena had no choice but to close all the shops under JNS Corporation. She didn’t mind suffering online abuse, but her employees were innocent. After handling the company’s affairs, she turned off her cell phone since she was still receiving harassment calls and messages.
Juniper was very obedient and didn’t throw a tantrum in the hotel. It was as though she realized that something had happened to her family and mother.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
At night, Selena cuddled Juniper on the bed to read her a story. I must remain strong and pretend that nothing has happened.
“Mommy, you don’t need to read me a story. Just go back to work if you have something to do.” Juniper looked up at her.
Gazing at her sensible daughter, Selena caressed her head. “It’s okay. I’ve already handled everything.”
