Chapter 121 Does Mr. Redford Want This Hypocritical Woman?
I paused for a moment and smiled at Kieran, saying, "I'm glad you like it!"
To be honest, I was very afraid that Kieran would not like it. I finally felt relieved when I heard what Kieran said. However, since this had begun, I naturally have to continue to cooperate with Alicia.
"Marlon, why are you leaving? You should believe in Alicia!" I took a few steps forward. With my shout, many media regained their senses and began to take pictures of Marlon leaving.
As for the guests present, they all started heated discussions.
"If I were Mr. Redford, I wouldn't want this kind of hypocritical woman!"
"That's right. Although she looks pure and innocent in her appearance, she turns out to be so disgusting. No man would like her, let alone Mr. Redford!"
"I think it's better for them to cancel their engagement. No, it will definitely be cancelled!"
The guests laughed as they watched Alicia being beaten by Marvin. There was no sympathy in their hearts at all. Marvin, who was on the ground, regained her senses when she saw Marlon leave. The momen our eyes met, I saw viciousness in her eyes. I smiled faintly at her.
Alicia grabbed Marvin's hand and said in a low voice, "Dad, am I bringing disgrace on our family now? No, I think it is you! If you don't stop this, our family will be on the headlines tomorrow!" "That's right. Marvin, this place is full of media. Calm down and don't incur ridicule!" Shania hurriedly grabbed Marvin.
Facing the flashing lights, Marvin gradually regained her composure. He forced herself to straighten her clothes calmly and called for a waiter to smash the machine. Then, he stood in the middle and bowed, saying, "I just lost control for a moment when I saw this prank video. Sorry!"
Alicia also stood in the middle. She bowed deeply. When she got up, her eyes were already tearful. She sobbed and said, "Two days ago, there were photos of Rachael with many men, including Marlon, my fiancé. When I saw those photos, I even impulsively quarreled with her!" Alicia said this as she looked at me, and then her tears fell silently.
I slowly got up. The moment I lowered my head, I smiled secretly. This Alicia was really a smart drama queen. Her simple words instantly pushed me to top spot of the public concern. Firstly, she brought my nude picture scandal under the spotlight again. Secondly, she caused others to think that I was the one who should bear the blame for this "prank", or "revenge."
Although this video was indeed posted by me!
"Rachael, why are you doing this to me?" Alicia looked at me and instantly cried.
Alicia was a beautiful woman with an innocent appearance. Now as she cried like this, many people's hearts immediately softened.
"Rachael, are there any misunderstandings between you and your sister? Why are you doing this to your own sister?" Shania immediately cried out, pointing at me.
Marvin, who was already furious, also looked at me with doubt and anger in his eyes after hearing what they said.
The attention of everyone in this room was back to me. I walked forward step by step and stood in front of Alicia, with my body slowly trembling. Tears filled my eyes. "Why? Alicia, you didn't believe that there was nothing happened between Mr. Redford and me. You insisted that I slept with Mr. Redford and those men. At that time, although you didn't believe me, I could understand. After all, you were not a master o professional appraisal of pictures. It was understandable that you couldn't tell if the pictures were real or fake. But, how can you suspect that I played this video?"
I looked at Alicia and Shania, with my eyes filled with sincerity. "Alicia, you are my sister. Even if you really did something like that, I would only keep this secret for you. How could I do this? Even if I don't like you, the entire Cornell family will be on headlines once this video is released. Tell me, as a member of the Cornell family, how can I not be implicated? Why would I do this?"
"You, you hate Alicia and me, so you want to slander us!" Shania shouted loudly, wanting to focus all the media attention on me and make them ignore Alicia.
I raised my head and looked at Shania. My body trembled, and tears rolled down my cheeks. "Shania, I haven't fought for anything for so many years, but you can't slander me like this!"
"Rachael, I know you hate me and Mom. I know it. However, you can't do this to me!" Alicia cried loudly. This enraged most of the people present.
"I guess this video was deliberately played by Rachael!"
"I also feel the same way. A child without a mother from childhood can easily be mentally distorted and do such a terrible thing!"
"Yes, this must have been played by Rachael!"
All the discussions clearly fell into my ears. I just listened silently. A child without a mother tended to be mentally distorted? Come on!
If that was the case, I would only regret that my mentality didn't distort more!
"It's me!" Suddenly, the entrance to the venue was pushed open. A man came in and shouted to everyone, "It wasn't Rachael. I was the one who played it. I did all of this to take revenge on this bitch, Alicia!"
The man who spoke looked to be about forty years old. He wore a white shirt, which was old and patched. It could be seen that the man was in a very poor financial situation.
I looked at this man with a smile on my face.
Dane, the man in this video!
A long time ago, the Cornell family and the Ward family were neighbors, and the latter was even richer than the former. At that time, Dane was both handsome and wealthy, but the Cornell family's business was on the rise. They were not on the same level as the Ward family.
Alicia had always loved money since she was young, so she took the initiative to hook up with Dane when she was in junior high school. Dane was a concentrated person and had always been with Alicia. However, in the first semester of senior high school, the Ward family went bankrupt, so she naturally dumped Dane who had nothing left.
Afterwards, Dane didn't want to leave her. He always waited for Alicia at the school gate and stopped her on the road. But after being beaten and humiliated by a group of people Alicia called, he did not do this anymore!
Because Dane was a neighbor, therefore, I was very clear about what happened between them back then, I often saw Alicia bringing Dane back home unscrupulously. Because the Marvin Group was in the ascending stage at that time, Marvin barely returned home. Moreover, Shania was hanging out with those wealthy ladies, and she barely stayed at home. Therefore, Alicia was completely unscrupulous at that time.
It should be said that at that time, Alicia was unbridled, which was why she would took this video with Dane.
The video we watched today was only a part of what Alicia had took in the past, and Dane took this part away. Because of that, we could see such a drama now!☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
