Chapter 197
A little girl was looking at a dazzling array of cakes when a woman suddenly appeared, and that woman was Megan Yard who was now lying in the ICU! In the next moment, Megan grabbed the little girl and slapped her. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Everyone was shocked to see this, having never expected her to have such a vicious side.
The video played on, but Selena’s brows furrowed. The video has been cut! That’s no coincidence! She’d long since known that Meredith played a huge part in this matter, so she hadn’t planned to give her any quarter during the press conference. For that reason, she’d retained the entire segment where she appeared. Although she was very smart at that time and didn’t do anything despicable in public, she added fuel to the flames besides allowing her sister to insult and hit a little girl. Hence, she was going to show her fans the true colors of their idol and perfect goddess, but that segment had been cut!
She forced herself to swallow around the lump in her throat, for she knew who did it without even having to ponder upon it. It’s probably because Meredith is his two sons’ mother that he has to give her quarter. While it was understandable, a wave of jealousy flooded her.
When the video had ended, all the reporters present were rendered dumbfounded. They weren’t familiar with Megan, merely knowing that she was a pitiful woman who was strangled at the hospital before taking a tumble that caused her to lose her child and was now still lying in the ICU. Never had they thought that she’d actually hit a child so young.
“The child in the video is my daughter, and she’s only four years old. It was her birthday that day. She happily greeted her aunt, but her aunt started scorning her and said that she was a bastard. Naturally, my daughter refuted it, only to have her slapping a four-year-old child in public!” Every time Selena thought of it, her heart twisted in agony.
“Megan Yard and I indeed have a long-standing grudge. As I’ve spoken of the incident back then during the wedding, I don’t want to repeat it today and waste your time. I only want to say that if it weren’t for this matter, I would’ve let her off during the wedding, and no one would’ve known that she’s the third party who stole her biological sister’s fiancé!”
At this, the reporters exchanged glances.
Selena’s gaze was fierce and determined. “You mentioned a word earlier—power. Indeed, I’m considered powerful in your eyes. However, since I’m so powerful, why would I choose such an idiotic method to deal with her?” A faint smile played on her lips. “Have you all ever considered this?”
This question had all the reporters present at a loss for words. That’s right. Selena Yard has a net worth of over a billion and occupies a spot on Forbes World’s Billionaires List. Conversely, the Lake and Yard Families have never been on Forbes World’s Billionaires List. Thus, it’s a piece of cake if she wants to deal with Megan Yard or even the entire Yard Family. She could have just had her killed. She didn’t have to create such a huge uproar in a public place. Even if Megan Yard truly dies, it’ll be inevitably linked to her. And there were plenty of witnesses, so it’ll affect her entire company significantly. She’s smart, so how would she possibly do something so dumb?
Selena swept her gaze around. “I still have another video for you. I hope all of you will keep your eyes peeled and watch carefully.”
Another video started playing. The video this time was familiar to everyone, for it was the hospital in which the incident transpired. However, the timestamp on the video indicated that it was before the incident. The definition of this video was much higher than the video surveillance footage on the internet, so it was probably captured with a cell phone.
It started with Megan and a man, though their voices weren’t particularly clear due to the distance. Nonetheless, one could still vaguely make out their conversation.
