Chapter 17
Mrs. Walson was angry with Dominic, but when she heard her son being belittled by Selena, her brows
furrowed, which showed her displeasure.
But almost in the blink of an eye, she pushed down the slight displeasure and her face broke into its
usual gentle smile
“Selena, I know it’s Dominic who has wronged you, but today is Cyril’s birthday party, he’s considered
to have watched you grow up, as a junior, you should stay.”
Selena’s icy gaze swept over Mrs. Walson’s face and she curled her lips into a smile.
‘Mrs. Walson, you should know that it’s not that I don’t want to stay to celebrate Cyril’s birthday, but
Leah won’t give me the chance to stay, and your son is bent on defending her. Are you thinking that I
haven’t been bullied enough by them yet?”
Mrs. Walson clenched her hand at the thought of what had just happened, barely able to hide the twist
on her face.
She tried to step forward to pull Selena’s arm, but was once again dodged by Selena
“Selena.”
Selena stood at the front door and would have walked out of the banquet hall with just one step.
She looked at Mrs. Walson, her expression blurred between the light and shadows, but her voice
carried a bone-chilling coolness.
“Mrs. Walson, although you are the elder, there are still some things that need to be said clearly. Other
people don’t know what kind of person l am and what kind of person Leah is, but you watch us grown
up. You know it very well. Since you have already condoned your son’s choice of Leah, why are you
still wasting time on me?”
And then she continued, “All my things have been snatched away by Leah, now I have nothing left,
what else do you want from me?” Hearing such sharp and perverse words from Selena, Mrs. Walson’s
heart sank suddenly, and her heart vaguely jumped.
She stared intently into Selena’s eyes, trying to see something in there.
She saw nothing but calmness.
In those beautiful, clear eyes, there was no longer a trace of infatuation or love for Dominic to be found.
Not to mention love, she did not even see on this girl’s face a trace of the pain and heartbreak of
betrayal by the man she loved.
In just a few days since the wedding cancellation, the girl in front of her seems to have undergone a
transformation, from her appearance to her temperament, she seems to have been reborn.
Mrs. Walson had always known that Selena was not unintelligent. On the contrary, according to her
mother’s family background and origin, this girl was better than Leah in all aspects.
She is just not as ruthless as Leah, nor is she as sophisticated and unscrupulous as her opponent.
Before, when Selena was deeply in love with Dominic, even if she was partial to Leah, she would never
have said it to her face.
Now Selena suspected her of having ulterior motives.
Mrs. Walson knows that there is only one explanation for a girl having such a transformative change-
She gave up the man she once loved so much!
She will no longer bend over backwards for that man, nor will she continue to hide in a corner, watching
him treat another woman with the utmost care, praying for care and warmth from him, as he
occasionally does.
Now standing before her was the one who lived only for herself, the real Miss Riddle!
When Mrs. Walson realised this, she was shaking with anger and wanted to go back and slap Dominic
several times and choke Leah to death.
If it wasn’t for her calculated stunt on the night of the wedding banquet that completely ruined Selena,
Selena wouldn’t have been so extreme!
Today is the last chance to have that 20 percent.
As she thought of this, Mrs. Walson’s face sank and her voice rose with concern so loudly that the
whole room could hear it.
“Selena, what are you talking about? You are the future mistress of the Walson family, Leah is just a
guest to the Walson family, since I am here, no one dares to kick you out!”
Selena gave Mrs. Walson a surprised look, playfulness in her eyes.
While Dominic has no brains, Mrs. Walson is a plucky and tough one.
Leah, who had been secretly observing Selena, blushed steeply and asked, sniffling, her eyes red, “I
didn’t want to drive my sister away, she hasn’t been home for days, I’m just concerned about her.”
She said, looking at Dominic with tearful eyes.
Usually, in this kind of situation, Dominic would surely stand out immediately and help her accuse
Selena fiercely.
But today, Dominic just stood still and gave her an apologetic and complicated look before turning his
head over to look at Selena.
Leah lowered her eyes, her pale face filled with an aggrieved expression, her sharp nails embedded
deep in her palms, her heart overflowing with anger and disbelief.
What’s going on?
Why would Mrs. Walson turn towards Selena, and how could Dominic not help her either?
While Dominic didn’t say anything, the ladies who had helped Leah accuse Selena before opened their
mouths.
“Mrs. Walson, don’t listen to Selena’s nonsense, Leah was kind enough to try to bring her in, but she hit
Leah and deliberately stepped on Leah, causing her to be splashed all over with wine.”
“That’s right, in full view of everyone, we all saw it, it was Selena who was wrong! Leah is the victim!”
All at once, the hall was filled with the shrill accusations of women in righteous indignation.
Selena stood in the doorway, her eyes arrogant, her fingers hooked in a strand of dark hair, facing the
many accusing voices, she merely hooked her lips.
The men in the room were impressed.
Although they knew that Selena had a notorious reputation, but her looks and temperament were truly
captivating.
Mrs. Walson seemed to be determined to defend Selena and looked at Leah with a cold face, “Selena
wouldn’t hit someone for no reason, Leah, can you tell me why Selena hit you?”
Standing beside Dominic, a young man spoke up.
“When Selena entered, she didn’t mean to hit Leah, it was Leah herself walked over and said
something to Selena.”
Leah’s face was even paler and her lips had lost their blood, and her body was shaky.
“Talon, what do you mean by that?”
Dominic shouted angrily. “Talon Walson!”
Talon Walson glanced at Dominic, his tone still cold, “Nothing, I’m just saying the fact that’s there for all
of us to see.”
“What Talon said is true.”
Another man with a wine glass spoke up, looked at Selena and smiled, “Selena is such a stunning Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
beauty, all of our attention was on her at that time. It really looked quite like Leah lured Selena into
hitting her.”
