Chapter 139

Beatrice had tried to find the cameras but failed. She assumed they had been removed.

As the video wrapped up, Dorian turned to Arabella and said, “Arabella, tell me truthfully, didn’t my wife and I go without food and clothing for two years so that you could have enough? Thaddeus is my own son, and there were times when he went hungry, but didn’t! always make sure you never had to?”

The social media community was left in utter disbelief. They started commenting, “Did Dorian adopt a daughter or a devil?”

The couple had scrimped and saved, even sacrificing their own sor’s needs, just to make sure Arabella was well fed and dressed. And what was their reward for all of this?

They got a daughter who chose wealth over kindness. A daughter who cosied up to Beatrice and left her adopted parents in the dirt.

Their reward was an adopted daughter who, after eight years, repeatedly smeared their names and even accused Dorian of a serious crime, leading to him being severely injured. Even when Dorian was still in surgery, she didn’t forget to tarnish their name to clear her own. This kind of daughter was nothing short of a demon.

And what about Beatrice? This old crone.

Arabella being adopted was bad enough, but Beatrice was Dorian’s own mother! How could she help a foster granddaughter ruin her own son?

They had cut ties, so she could no longer get benefits from Dorian. For this simple reason, she decided to destroy him.

This kind of mother was even scarier than Arabella.

The live broadcast from Havenwood News was on the television screen. After Vivienne had

released the videos, the journalists at the scene had naturally seen the content.

Those who had initially sympathized with Arabella and Beatrice quickly changed their tune. The seemingly pitiful girl and elderly woman in front of them now seemed like two demons in disguise.

Unaware of the tide turning against her, Arabella continued to address the cameras. “I truly apologize for this wastage of police resources. But I have no regrets; I will never forgive that demon, Dorian! I…”

Just as the word “demon” left her lips, a rotten egg was splattered on her face.

Arabella was momentarily stunned. Before she could react, another egg hit her, followed by a voice shouting, “You have the audacity to talk about forgiveness?! Why don’t you ask your adopted father if he forgives his lying daughter?!”

Immediately after, a barrage of rotten eggs and spoiled vegetables rained down on Arabella and Beatrice. Some even threw stones.
