Chapter 228: Get Pregnant
At the press conference, all heads turned to Wendy.
Whether it was Oakley or Wendy, they couldn't believe them just by listening to their words.
"If I didn't have any evidence, how would I dare to hold a press conference?" Wendy held the microphone tightly and spoke exactly what Roger had told her to.
"I was on the Octavia Show on October 20th.A few days before that, Oakley and Cacia met in a cafe.I have the surveillance footage of their meeting."
When Cacia heard that, her face changed.
‘How is that possible? I specially chose a place without surveillance cameras to meet Oakley.Did I miss a camera? Oh my God!"
As she thought of that, her heart pounded against her chest.
Roger took out a USB flash drive from his pocket and handed it to Wendy.
Holding it in her hand, Wendy told the reporters, "In this USB flash drive, you'll find the footage of their meeting! They met in a cafe in the north of the city."
Then, she glanced at Ruben and Cacia and sneered, "Do you think I would be stupid enough to hold a press conference just because I had a witness? Cacia, your stubbornness is going to be the death of you! You just said that you don't know Oakley.Well, since you don't know him, and he's not related to you in any way, your reason for meeting him in private is obvious! If you're still not going to admit it, I'll show everyone the video and see how you explain it then!"
Clenching her fists tightly, Cassia snapped, "Nonsense! I don't know him at all.And I didn't meet him in the north of the city!"
"Then where did you meet him?"
"In the south of the city..."
Upon hearing Wendy's abrupt question, Cacia blurted out the truth without thinking.
When she realized what she had said, it was too late.
The reporters all gasped in surprise.
After all, they were not idiots.
Even though Cacia hadn't finished her sentence, her true colors were already exposed.
Wendy threw the USB flash drive at Cacia's face.
"You shameless woman!"
"You..."
Cacia was so angry that she couldn't say a word.
‘She tricked me? How dare she? And I...I actually fell into her trap! This bitch...I won't let her go!"
Thinking of that, Cacia furiously yelled, "Wendy!"
Tilting her chin up defiantly, Wendy sneered, "What? You're not going to pretend to be a kind stepmother anymore?"
At this moment, Cacia really wished that she could slap Wendy across the face! ‘Bitch!’ She gnashed her teeth together in anger.
Her flawless plan had been ruined by Wendy! Cacia regretted coming here today.
"Wendy—" she began, but before she could finish, Wendy slapped her hard across the face.
"Ah!"
Cacia raised her hand to her cheek and looked at Wendy in shock.
She wanted to hit Wendy back, but she didn't dare to do show her true nature in front of the media.
Therefore, she had no choice but to tolerate the insult.
Ever since Wendy had found out that Cacia was the one who had killed her mother, she had desperately wanted to slap her.
lt was an urge that she had suppressed for four long years.
But fortunately, she didn't have to suppress it anymore.Her palm was slightly numb from the pain, but she was extremely happy.
As for the reporters, they were completely taken aback by Wendy's ruthless slap.
"Oh, my God! If Cacia is the one who instigated Oakley, then she's really shameless!"
"What's more, Cacia told everyone that she treated Wendy better than Eris.She's a liar!"
"Don't forget, Ruben and Eris also lied and slandered Wendy.One of them is Wendy's biological father, and the other is her stepsister.This is shocking news!"
"Nonsense! She's just talking nonsense!" Cacia yelled.
After seconds of covering her cheek like a pitiful woman, she couldn't pretend anymore.
"Don't let her fool you.Even though I did ask Oakley to expose her secrets at the show, what Oakley said is true! Wendy has always been a bad girl.She got pregnant at the age of nineteen.She can't deny it!"
Then, she took out her phone in a hurry and added, "I have evidence!"
After swiping madly on her screen, she found the picture of the pregnancy test report that Wendy had gotten before.
She had kept the report on purpose without throwing it away, and had even taken photos of it in case it came in handy someday.
But she hadn't expected that time to come so soon.
With a small smirk of satisfaction, she showed her phone screen to the reporters so that they could see the report clearly.
"This is the result of the prenatal check-up that Wendy did four years ago, and this is the ultrasound scan result.She did these tests at General Hospital.If you don't believe me, you can ask the doctors there.I'm sure they remember Wendy!"
Once again, the reporters’ attention was drawn to Wendy.
As they thought about the whole matter logically, the sympathy in their eyes disappeared.
Even though they had seen evidence that Cacia had paid Oakley to harm Wendy's reputation, all it proved was that Cacia was two-faced; it could not prove that Wendy was innocent.
Looking at the expressions of the reporters changing, Wendy stood there quietly with her back straightened.
However, her hand holding the microphone was trembling slightly, and her pale face was livid with anger.
In a way, she looked pitiful.
Somehow, amid the tense silence, the reporters realized how Wendy must be feeling.
It was not a big deal that her stepmother had made things difficult for her, but it was shocking that her own father and stepsister had stabbed her in the back.
Even if Wendy's character was questionable, exposing her past in front of the media was a really nasty thing for her own family to do.
Everyone in the hall knew how betrayed and crushed Wendy must be feeling, and they didn't know what to say.
As the silence dragged on, Roger gently patted Wendy's shoulder, signaling to her to initiate the second step.
However, Wendy didn't move.
Clenching the microphone tightly, she announced, "Yes.I did get pregnant four years ago!"
Time seemed to come to a standstill, as everybody was thunderstruck by her sudden revelation.
After all, how could Wendy actually admit to such a thing? For an actress, her career would be destroyed totally by this revelation.
Roger was also shocked.
"Wendy..."
This was not at all part of the plan.
He knew that admitting that she had gotten pregnant four years ago could be a devastating blow to her. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
In the luxury car outside, Ryan held the iPad so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
Luke's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"What just happened? Why did she say that? Does she know the consequences she'll have to face now? Is she out of her mind?"
As soon as Luke finished speaking, he felt a chill rising from his back.
He turned his head to see Ryan looking at him gloomily.
"Shit! How could I forget how fond Ryan is of Wendy?’ Gulping, Luke hastily waved his hand and said, "Ha-ha, I'm just kidding! Wendy is so smart.She probably has a plan..."
Although he said these words out loud, his inner thoughts were, 'How could she admit it? She was nineteen years old back then.
She was a girl who had just reached adulthood.
This news will definitely have a bad impact on her career! He stole a glance at Ryan and opened his mouth to say something, but on second thought, he decided otherwise.
"If you have something to say, just say it," Ryan growled.
"Ryan…”
Four years ago, Wendy was only nineteen.
If the media finds out that you are Ray's father, what will they say? Will they accuse you of robbing the cradle?"
