Be Spoiled After Rebirth (Selena and Osvaldo)

Chapter 969 How can you be a mother? "Without me, there would be no your mother. Without your mother, where would you cfrom? You are so rebellious, cruel to your own siblings, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?" Selena sneered.

"You heartless and vicious thing, abandoning your own daughter, you won't be struck by lightning, why would lightning strike me?" Daphne's angry expression suddenly stiffened, "What are you talking about?" Selena stood over Daphne, looking down on her, "The reason why you dare to accuseso confidently is because my mother once expected you to be a real mother to me, right?" Daphne trembled and met Selena's dark, unyielding gaze. She couldn't help but take a step back, "What do you mean by ‘expected’? Nevaeh was originally my daughter..." But Selena didn't seem to hear her words. Her eyes were cold and dark, "But | am not my mother. She would expect your care, tolerate your selfishness, and be heartbroken by your favoritism and viciousness... but | won't!" Selena stared at her, a cruel smile curling up at the corner of her lips, "lI am ruthless and vicious, arrogant and domineering. If someone owesa penny, | will make them pay back a thousand times over!" "Daphne, open your eyes and watch carefully. Watch how | tore Penelope, whom you held so dear, into pieces!" Daphne was so frightened by Selena's gaze that she trembled uncontrollably. Her eyes widened to their limit as she stood unsteadily in place, as if she could faint at any moment.

Seemingly enraged to the extreme, Daphne suddenly raised her hand and slapped Selena hard across the face.

Selena's eyes flashed with anger, and she was about to push Daphne away when a slender figure suddenly appeared from the sidelines and stood in front of Selena, taking the slap for her.

A crisp sound echoed in everyone's ears.

Selena looked at the child standing in front of her, and the rage in her eyes almost overflowed. Hattie opened her arms and blocked Selena's way, her small body trembling and her face turning white as she glared at Daphne with hatred.

"Keep hitting me! You won't be able to killtoday! But one day, | will kill your most beloved Penelope, Kaitlyn, Hunter, one by one!" Daphne met Hattie's eyes full of hatred, and her heart suddenly trembled. But her anger grew even stronger, "You little beast! | raised you, and yet you help this outsider defy me!" Hattie licked her lips, her sharpness growing stronger and stronger, "When my mother died, you beatlike this for the sake of the woman who killed her!" "And today, you cto beat Selena for the sake of Penelope!" "Selena is not Aunt Nevaeh, and you have never raised her or cared for her even a bit. What right do you have to hit her?" "You raisedfor thirteen years, and | let you hit me. But after you're done hitting me, from now on, you're just my enemy!" Daphne covered her chest, trembling with anger.

She looked at Selena, who was being protected by Hattie, and a voice kept echoing in her mind.

It was Selena who instigated Hattie and made her granddaughter hate her so much! It was Selena who maliciously harmed Penelope, making the entire Riddle family uneasy! It was all Selena's fault! Daphne raised her hand again and slapped Selena in the face.

A trace of blood appeared at the corner of Selena's eyes. Just as she couldn't control herself and was about to strike back at Daphne, a piercing brake sound entered her ears.

A white sports car rushed over, and Leon hurriedly got out of the car, grabbed Daphne's hand, and his face was frighteningly cold.

"Stop!" Daphne turned around and rushed over, pointing at Selena and Hattie, crying loudly, "Leon, did you hear what those two disobedient people said? They -" "That's enough, grandmother!" Leon stared at Daphne, without any expression on his face. "Do you think, in your eyes, all the children of the Riddle family combined are not even as good as a hair of Penelope's?" Daphne trembled, "What are you talking about? Are you also helping Selena defy me?" Leon looked at her coldly, "Grandma, don't forget, Penelope is the real outsider. You ran to the Turner family openly to humiliate the Riddle family's granddaughter and slap the Riddle family's granddaughter for an outsider. Did you really think that the Riddle family would allow you to humiliate their bloodline like this?" Daphne felt a sinking feeling in her heart, "Penelope was -" "Penelope is a traitor with solid evidence, and no one framed her!" Leon coldly interrupted her words. "What, grandmother, do you want to risk the entire Riddle family to save an outsider?" Daphne choked up, "Penelope is the young lady of the Riddle family. She couldn't have done such a thing. It must be Selena who framed her!" Leon dropped Daphne's hand, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then suppressed his anger. He looked at Daphne coldly and ordered, "Take the old lady back. She is not allowed to go out without my permission!" Daphne angrily shouted, "Leon!" Leon raised his hand and had the driver take Daphne away.

Amid Daphne's struggling, Selena let out a light laugh and said, "Mr. Riddle, do you think... you can still keep Daphne?" Leon rubbed his forehead in frustration and said, "Lady Selena..." Selena lovingly touched the wound on Hattie's face and stared at Daphne, her tone icy, "Someone like you... how can you be a mother?" Daphne met Selena's cold gaze and felt a chill in her heart. When she mentioned Nevaeh, all her righteous indignation faded away.

Selena said coldly, "I will make you regret it!" Daphne was stunned, "What did you say--" Selena sneered, "I will make you regret it until you can't even close your eyes in death!" Daphne's heart twitched and she stammered, "You..." Like a judge passing sentence, Selena ignored Daphne after speaking and led Hattie into the Turner family's home, walking into the silence.

Watching Selena's departing figure, Daphne was so angry that her eyes almost rolled back. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and said, "Leon, quickly send someone to save Penelope and Kaitlyn. That wicked woman Selena has sent people to kill them..." Leon looked at Daphne's twisted, aged face and remembered what Selena had said earlier. That woman was like a high and mighty judge, arranging predetermined outcomes based on each person's crimes. The outcshe had arranged for Daphne was clearly one where she would die without being able to close her eyes.

Daphne was so stubborn in her love for Penelope and Kiera, how could she confess and admit fault? Did Selena really find something out, or was it just a momentary outburst?
