Chapter 15
Good heavens! They had heard of a piece of shocking news!
It was rumored that Edgar had a wife who had been hiding for three years and hadn’t been announced to the public. They didn’t expect her to be Patric’s female companion!
Judging from their conversations and the way Grace had glanced at Nancy before she left, they could tell that something was fishy about it. It was not simple!
The way the crowd looked at Nancy changed instantly.
Nancy was a little flustered. She didn’t expect that she would shoot herself in the foot. Now, everyone was wondering if she was a mistress!
Edgar’s assistant, Tim, took the initiative to clean up the mess and explain it to everyone. “Please don’t misunderstand. Mr. Fallen and Miss Salen have divorced, and he’s in a normal relationship with Miss Mellis now. I hope you won’t say anything about what happened today for the sake of the Fallen Group.”
After some time, the crowd finally dispersed.
Mia regained some strength, got up from the ground, and grabbed Edgar’s sleeve tightly. The thick, dark circles under her eyes rendered her very funny, but she still gritted her teeth unwillingly and said, “Edgar, you have to help me. That little bitc h bullied me in public, which is a slap in the face of the Fallen Group. You have to teach her a lesson!”
Nancy chimed in, “Edgar, Mia suffered so much tonight. What are you going to do about Grace?”
Edgar’s eyes darkened as he glanced at the two of them.
“Since you insist, let’s go and take a look at the surveillance video first.”
After saying that full of resentment, he took the lead and left.
A trace of panic flashed across Mia’s face. She subconsciously glanced at the camera on the overhead lamp in the garden.
Thinking that the camera only recorded her being bullied, she thought that there should be no big issue.
Only then did she and Nancy catch up with Edgar.

Before leaving, Grace had specifically instructed the manager of the Easter Hotel. As soon as the three of them appeared, the manager respectfully took them into the monitoring room. Before leaving, he took another look at Mia’s ugly face full of heavy makeup.
His stare provoked Mia, who said, “What are you looking at? Even if my makeup is ruined, I’m still nobler than you bitc h e s!”
The manager scurried away in disgrace, but he was very wanted to see how much longer Mia could stay arrogant!
In the monitoring room…

The video was played back one second at a time.
Mia didn’t expect that the hotel’s camera could also record the sound!
She listened to her vicious curses on the surveillance video. The surveillance video showed that she had failed to land her first move and Grace had launched a counterattack. Her face became paler and paler.
On the other hand, Edgar looked terrifyingly gloomy, indicating that he was going to fly into
a rage.
Glancing at his face, Mia was completely terrified.
“Edgar, listen to my explanation.”
But he ignored her and turned to leave.
“Edgar!”
Mia caught up with him, still unwilling to give up, saying, “I did say something unpleasant, but I didn’t mean it! And as you can see, she pressed my head in the fountain. I didn’t even touch a finger of hers!”
Edgar’s face was livid.
“Others may not know who you are, Mia Fallen, but I do! By pretending to give her money, you know very well what you’re up to.”
Mia’s face suddenly turned pale, and she cried bitterly, saying, “I just wanted to teach her a lesson. I can’t stand her seducing another man while keeping you hanging! I just wanted to stand up for you!”
Hearing her words, Edgar fell silent, and his eyes were a little gloomy.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Thinking that he was wavering, Mia was secretly delighted, and she decided to pursue the
matter.
“Look at how intimate Mr. Smith is with her. She must have h o o k e d up with him before she divorced you! You should teach a bitc h such as her a lesson.”
She paused for a moment and continued, saying, “Why don’t we take advantage of this incident? Let’s remove the sound of surveillance footage and edit it before posting it online. Everyone surely will scold her, and her reputation will be ruined. What do you think, brother?”
