Chapter 979 Apology "In the future, you will not only have no granddaughter, but you will also never have a granddaughter again." Daphne understood Leon's meaning, and her face changed slightly. "How can that be? I... | just slapped her, why would she..." Patrick's eyes were full of sarcasm. "That's probably because Daphne has a bad memory and forgot that she had hit Miss Riddle under similar circumstances before." The last time she hit Hattie was...
Daphne's face suddenly changed, and she wanted to ask about Hattie's situation, but Leon had already hung up the phone.
Patrick's tone was full of irony. "Even when her illegitimate granddaughter broke her leg, Daphne personally went to visit her out of anger. She hated her own granddaughter and wished to eat her. When her biological granddaughter was dying of illness, she didn't even greet her and cursed her for not dying sooner..." "The biggest misfortune in the Riddle family's life is probably having a mistress like you!" Daphne's face turned white, and she didn't know if it was from anger or shame.
Whispers surrounded them. "How can she be so cold and biased, even towards her own granddaughter?” "Is Daphne crazy? She doesn't care about her own granddaughter or her illegitimate granddaughter. Her heart is only devoted to her foster daughter and illegitimate children. She ruined every daughter from the Riddle family, born from the legitimate bloodline or not. It's simply wicked!" "What about her treatment of her own biological daughter for the sake of her foster daughter? Compared to what Nevaeh went through, this bias towards her grandchildren today is just child's play..." Manny lowered his head even more, holding onto Daphne's arm as if he didn't exist.
As the voices continued to drill into her ears, Daphne's mind went blank. She just wanted the descendants of the Riddle family to be well, how could she not care about them? Patrick only mentioned Lavender's broken leg, why didn't he mention Penelope's imprisonment, Ache's heart attack, and near- death experience? He was only trying to protect Selena. No, maybe this was Selena's way of whitewashing her own scheme, deliberately letting Patrick say this! Hattie only had a mental illness, and she just accidentally hit her with a slap. How could she get so sick? She had never heard of a mental illness that could kill people! Daphne suddenly understood everything and became even more resentful towards Selena and Hattie for deceiving her. She angrily scolded, "Selena did these despicable things just to make me come and apologize to her, right? Let her come out, I will kneel down and apologize to her, as long as she can bear it!" Patrick instantly felt that Daphne was hopeless.
He turned around to leave, but when he lifted his head, he saw Selena walking down the garden steps.
Patrick was slightly stunned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the bright daylight, the girl who came in from the door was wearing a white windbreaker. Her black long hair was not adorned and scattered behind her. She seemed to have just woken up. Her slender body was almost weak, but every step she took was full of momentum.
The people on the scene were also stunned. Selena walked out of the garden languidly and stood at the door, looking down at the crowd with a light gaze.
She looked at Daphne, who was stunned, and asked in a lazy tone as if just waking up, "What did you say about Hattie just now?" Her tone was naturally cold, as if she was used to talking to people in a superior posture.
Daphne was stunned.
The momentum and righteousness just now disappeared inexplicably at the moment she saw Selena.
Manny, who was holding her arm, quietly clenched his fingers.
The scene fell silent.
Those who had just prepared to make fun of Selena didn't dare to speak up at this moment for some reason.
Patrick saw that Selena's complexion was not good and walked over, "What's wrong?" Selena raised her hand and rubbed her temples, "It's nothing." Then, she seemed to remember something and said to Patrick, "I'm going to Creephia. I'll be back in two days." Patrick keenly sensed that her mood was off and kindly advised, "There is not much to do in the capital. You can stay in Creephia for a few more days." Selena nodded, turned around and was about to leave.
Daphne, who was suppressed just now, suddenly burst out again when she saw Selena's indifferent attitude, "Selena, stop! You did so much just to make me apologize to you, didn’t you?" "| apologize to you now. Please let go of Penelope and Ache, and let go of the Riddle family!" After she finished speaking, Daphne actually bent deeply to Selena.
The entire crowd gasped in shock.
In front of everyone, Daphne bowed to Selena. If this gets out, Selena will become the laughingstock of the entire capital!" They all watched Selena for her reaction.
If it were someone else, they would have immediately avoided Daphne's behavior.
However, Selena stood her ground and received Daphne's apology.
The audience was shocked, not by Daphne's disgusting behavior, but by Selena's reaction.
In the past, they would have made fun of her, but this time, they were inexplicably respectful.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDaphne expected Selena to panic, become angry, and immediately release the Riddle family's three children, but she didn't.
Selena stood there motionless, with no sign of panic or anger on her face. Her black eyes sparkled like the endless night sky, beautiful and deep.
Daphne suddenly realized that Selena was truly ruthless.
She wasn't just angry or threatening.
Her granddaughter truly wished for her death.
Daphne shuddered.
Selena had attacked Kaitlyn, Ache, and Penelope, so why not attack her? Selena saw the fear in Daphne's eyes and chuckled lightly.
She probably guessed what Daphne had said. "There's no need to waste time and energy on her. | also hate being a laughingstock!" Especially being dragged down by an idiot like her! Selena's gaze slid sharply over to Manny, who stood next to Daphne.
Then, she walked towards the garden.
Patrick frowned and followed her, leaving everyone else to watch the unexpected scene. They looked at Daphne's defeated face, glanced at each other, and left.
