Chapter 160 Birthday Banquet (2) Those who criticized or attacked Rylan were almost all women who had been emotionally hurt in the past. Everyone was outraged at Rylan’s irresponsible behavior of getting Elise pregnant and then not taking responsibility.
Elise looked at Rylan with tear-filled eyes, choking back a sob, “Rylan, my bag was knocked by the waiter, and the check-up report fell out and was seen by Ms. Dempsey. | will explain to everyone now, everything was my own decision, it has nothing to do with you...”
Elise was just about to pick up the microphone when Luna snatched it away from her side.
“Ms. Beltran, you can’t continue to be weak. Have you just wasted your youth of over a decade? The crucial point is that you are now pregnant. Even a dog wouldn’t be so cold-blooded and ruthless!”
The echoes from below kept coming. Almost all the women stood by Elise’s side, feeling sympathy, pity, and endless anger for what she had gone through! Facing the public’s curses, contempt, and disgust. Rylan’s face grew at few degrees colder.
He had actually thought that Elise was a considerate and gentle woman in the past. If Audrey hadn’t shown him that video, even he himself would have thought that it was his second personality that had forced Elise, causing her to become pregnant!

was a woman adept at manipulating people’s hearts.
With Luna’s help, he disguised himself as an innocent victim, pushing him to the pinnacle of public opinion!
If he didn’t give her a title today, he would be utterly discredited. His image in the hearts of the people of Cloud City would plummet. Who would be willing to go to his hospital for treatment?
Elise was going to make a move today, Audrey had anticipated it long ago.
After discussing with Rylan, he advised her not to confront Elise directly, but to maintain her fairy—like image. He didn’t want her to leave any bad impressions on the guests!
Therefore, despite her pale face in the face of public accusations and curses, Audrey never spoke up.
Rylan frowned at Elise, his voice cold. “Out of respect for our decade- long friendship, there were things | didn’t want to expose you for in front of everyone. But if you want to make a big deal out of it, fine, I'll play along!”
Seeing Rylan’s unrepentant demeanor, Luna thought of the scumbag boyfriend who had once hurt her. She angrily said, “Mr. Watson, are you threatening Ms. Beltran?”
“Who dares to threaten my sister, | won't let him go!” Hayden jumped onto the stage angrily.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
Facing the fierce and evil Hayden, Rylan didn’t even blink an eye, exuding a calm and restrained aura of power without anger.
After all, as the richest person in Cloud City, he was still able to maintain control in the face of chaos. 37 10% He ignored Hayden, instead looking deeply into Elise’s eyes, “Are you sure the child is mine?”
“Rylan, the DNA test results are out, don’t you believe it?” Elise gritted her teeth, she took out a USB drive from her bag again, “Fine, this video can prove that the child is indeed yours.”
Elise had the videographer plug into the computer and connect to the big screen. Soon, a scene appeared on the big screen.
“On the day of the Aurora festival, there was a violent wind, and you went to the suburban manor. | was worried about you and went to see you. Unexpectedly, your illness flared up, your second personality emerged, and forced me to impersonate Aurora...”
The scene was of Elise walking into the bedroom in a high—collared long dress. She had styled her long hair into big waves and wore smoky makeup on her face. Under the dim yellow light, she really looked quite like another woman.
