Chapter 407

Evadne didn’t avert Thaddeus‘ gaze this time, a gaze that was as sincere and sparkling

Her heart was tumultuous. How much did he love her, to have his eyes moist every time he saw her, as if he would burst into tears at any moment?

Elspeth and her daughter were blocked by Evadne and Thaddeus in the front and surrounded by reporters at the back, feeling incredibly uncomfortable, almost on the verge of tears!

Just then, Alva stepped forward, took out her phone, and played a recording in front of everyone.

The venue fell silent. The voice in the recording was crystal clear and unbearable to listen to..

It was Elspeth’s usual abusive language towards the servants at home!

Everyone was shocked!

“My God! Record this!”

“Is this how a tycoon’s wife should behave? Even the old ladies at the farmer’s market down my street are more civilized when they curse!”

“This is definitely going viral, no doubt about it!”

Glynnis turned pale with fear. She had also often tortured the servants, fearing that the next recording would feature her voice.

Come on, everyone, look at the elegant and dignified Elspeth in her daily life, treating her servants with kindness and generosity!” Alva raised her phone and started yelling.

“You old hag! How dare you set me up! Stop it!”

Elspeth, her face flushed with humiliation, rushed forward to grab the phone. But the Ashbourne family’s bodyguards wouldn’t let this crazy woman get close to Alva and blocked her completely.

So, under the media’s lens, this scene turned into a one–sided display of Elspeth’s rage, with full entertainment value..

“My lady, can’t you take just one recording? I have dozens more here. This is just the tip of the iceberg of your years of bullying at the Abernathy group.”

Saying this, Alva played another recording.

This one started with a loud slap. Anyone could tell that it was a resounding slap!

A

“Erica, you clumsy bitch! You can’t even handle a simple task! The Abernathy family doesn’t keep useless people!” Elspeth’s harsh voice came through, sounding as grating as nails on a chalkboard!

Elspeth turned pale and began to tremble.

“I’m sorry, madam. I’ll clean up right away. Ah!”

Enca’s agonized voice made everyone’s heart clench.

“Erica! Didn’t you hear me? Are you deaf?” Glynnis‘ voice appeared. She sounded so much like her mother.

“I’m sorry, Glynnis. I’ll come right away.”

With solid evidence, they couldn’t deny their actions!

“Who gives you the right to randomly abuse the housemaids?” Arnold was furious, wanting to point his finger at Elspeth’s nose and curse, but he was stopped by Cassius and Aaron.

“Ah, Arnold’ so fierce when he loses his temper.” Elvis shook his head on the side.

Evadne’s eyes were red with hatred, and her throat was in severe pain.

Thaddeus held her tightly, silently comforting her who was on the verge of breaking down. However, the veins on his hand around her waist were bulging, indicating that he was also losing his patience.

Elspeth and her daughter’s faces were swollen, and the reporters were in an uproar.

“Let’s go, let’s go quickly!”

Elspeth gritted her teeth and pulled Glynnis; trying to break through the crowd.

But just then, Evadne and Thaddeus both felt a chilling wind sweep past them.
