Chapter 82

Selena had just gotten up. It was merely 4:00 aan., and she had not freshened up when the police arrived.

After sending the police away, Selena stood in the living room, her hair disheveled. Looking at the document in her hand. she trembled with rage. Hailey actually dared to sue me! she thought.

“What’s going on?” Rose took the document and examined it. The lawsuit was not filed under Hailey’s name but under the name of the official studio of the “River.”

Not many people knew that Hailey was behind “River,” but a select few, including Selena, were aware. Rose’s expression turned complicated as she finished examining the document. “Selena, what’s happening? There have been claims online that you are “River, but now with this lawsuit… what’s really going on?” she asked.

She knew her daughter well. Selena must have snatched that prestigious title of an online literature master from someone else. She did not care how and from where Selena had snatched it, but she only wanted her daughter to clean up the mess.

Selena’s face turned ashen. “Mom, don’t worry about this. I’ll handle it,” she said.

Rose had no desire to meddle in the matter. She was recently busy dealing with her husband’s affair. She only warned Selena in a low voice, “Just don’t let your father discover it.”

Aiden had long been displeased with her and Selena. Moreover, he now had a new lover outside. If Selena caused trouble for the Dalton family and embarrassed Aiden, he might chase them out of the family.

Selena merely hummed in response and went upstairs with the document. She locked herself in her room and called Alice. However, Alice did not answer, so she called Jeanie instead.

Jeanie had spent the previous night at a bar. Ever since Hailey had ruined her, Jeanie’s status in the entertainment industry had plummeted, and she had not had any acting roles recently.

However, she did not mind enjoying a carefree life, frequenting bars and high–end venues. She lived an incredibly comfortable life.
