Chapter 164
Chapter 164 Birthday Banquet (6). Elise was genuinely terrified and scared of Rylan’s alter ego. But also unconsciously infatuated.
He was unsociable, bloodthirsty, and cold-hearted, emanating a powerful and mysterious aura. Like a poppy, he inexplicably drew people into obsession.
Elise’s cheeks were pinched by him, her face pale, and a hint of coquettish appeasement showed through her tear—blurred eyes, “Rylan. let’s talk this out-”
Before Elise could finish her sentence, the man’s large hand, which had been on her cheek, moved to strangle her neck.
“| was fucking cuckolded by you, and you expect me to talk nicely to you? If you don’t tell the truth, I'll strangle you right here, right now!”
The man’s face was as dark and cold as it could be, his eyes and actions told her that he was not lying.
If Rylan was a gentle and humble gentleman, then he was the complete opposite, he was a crazy, cold—blooded devil! Elise was choked to the point of gasping for air, still trying to
stubbornly argue. But as the oxygen in her chest became less and less. she weakly said. “The child is indeed not yours...” As soon as Elise spoke, the whole room erupted into an uproar again.
Luna, who had previously spoken to Elise, and all the noble ladies, all felt as if they had been slapped hard in the face! 000
Elise had always had a reputation for being virtuous and good in Cloud City. She had been by Rylan’s side for many years, nameless and unrecognized, without any complaints or regrets. Everyone thought she was just like the rumors suggested, but they never expected...
“Appearances can be deceiving, Ms. Beltran is really cunning She used us to try to force Mr. Watson into submission, to give her a title!”
“This woman was so cunning, we almost fell completely into her trap!” “From the moment she tore up the DNA report that Miss Wen had given her. | knew something was fishy!”
Seeing the shift in the wind, Elise became the enemy of all. Hayden snapped out of his shock, he stormed onto the stage, furiously yelling at Rylan, “You almost strangled my sister, even if she’s carrying your child, she would change her words out of fear-”
Hayden was cut off by a cold sneer before he could finish speaking. “Mr. Beltran, Elise almost stabbed herself in the neck with a small knife, how could she possibly be afraid of death? Besides, in front of so many guests, could my father really strangle her?”NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
“And the ‘even if you just mentioned, you don’t believe Elise could bear my father’s child, do you?”
“Over the years, my father has treated you siblings generously. The mansion Mr. Beltran is living in now, the luxury car he drives, which one of them isn’t subsidized by the money Elise got from my father?”
“Would Elise have been willing to follow him for years without any recognition or status if there wasn’t a huge benefit involved?”
“Also, there’s my mother’s Ethereal Threads, how it lost thirty million, I’ve already gathered the evidence, Mr. Beltran, do you want to face me in court? Furthermore, Ms. Beltran, bribing Laura to try to poison my grandmother. | have both testimonial and physical evidence. You
siblings have been causing trouble in my family for years, what, this time you still want my father to play the fool?”
Watching the eloquent and sharp-tongued Audrey, Elise and Hayden turned pale, momentarily at a loss for words.
Guests around them were pointing and whispering, either with disdain or contempt. For a moment, it seemed as if they were about to be cast into the abyss!
Rylan forcefully pushed Elise away, his gloomy eyes filled with disgust and indifference. Elise fell unsteadily to the ground.
She stiffened, her fingertips digging into her palms, as a tide of accusations and curses flooded her ears in the banquet hall, leaving her mind in utter chaos.
No, she couldn't just lose like this. She wanted to leave herself a way out!
