Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 131

The image of an affluent socialite that Betty had carefully crafted for years fell apart at the press conference. That night, she returned to Seaview Manor weak and defeated. The maids had to help her into the house.

She waited, “Mom, you must get back at them for me! I’m so upset!”

Her face was tear–stricken and full of snot. “Everyone’s cursing me online. I can’t go out in public anymore!”

“What can I do? Should I slap Jasper or force him to hand over the role of president to you, little dimyat?” A furious Sophia pointed a finger at Betty’s teary face.

“What did I tell you before you left? I told you to recite my script, word by word, and never put on any makeup! You needed to show up bare -faced to appear sincere!”

Sophia went on, “But what did you do instead? You went against everything I planned. You deserved everything that happened to you What’s the point of crying in front of me? Even your dad has given up on you!”

“Mom, it’s all my fault. I should have listened to you. I won’t do that again!‘ Sobbing, Betty fell to Sophia’s feet and hugged her mother’s leg.

“Mom, the press conference was Jasper’s Idea, but it was Alice White who started it all! I wouldn’t have been in this mess if she hadn’t pestered me!”

“We will need to get rid of Alice someday.” Narrowing her eyes, Sophla was scheming. “It will be Javier’s birthday soon. I have a plan to set Alice back and for you to turn around.”
