Chapter 220

Vivien was a hot mess as security held her back, her face flushed with fury and defeat.

“You’ve ruined me. Damn you,‘ she spat at Gwendolyn, her fury palpable. “You’ve brought nothing but bad!… my family! I wish you’d disappear from the earth! My family went bankrupt, and my dad has been arrested! My life’s a living hell because of you! What gives you the night to look so damn perfect?”

Her venom was aimed squarely at Gwendolyn, who stood there, the picture of composure as Vivien raged on.

“You’re like a curse, Gwen! Since you showed up, my happy life has been torn to shreds.”

Gwendolyn looked at her with an icy calm. “Vivien, I don’t owe you a thing. You’ve caused an accident and hurt people. Get ready to face the music.”

“I’m not scared!” Vivien sneered back, her laugh a hollow sound. “So, what if I lost, Gwen? You haven’t won either! No one ever told you the truth about that car crash, did they? Selina was right there in the passenger seat!

When the crash happened, Howard did the unthinkable. He swerved the wheel to protect Selina! He ended up in a coma, a vegetable, while Selina walked away without a scratch!

In Howard’s heart, you’ll never hold a candle to Selina! She’s his childhood sweetheart, the belle of Bayridge City, talented and beautiful beyond words! He gave his life to protect her!”

Vivien watched with a twisted satisfaction as Gwendolyn’s expression turned sour, her laughter growing wilder. “So, what if you’re his wife? His heart will always belong to Selina!”
