Chapter 193: Chapter 193: A Disgraceful Escape
Bang!
Ruby Green’s legs finally gave out, and she collapsed on the ground with a thud.
She never expected that this grand engagement was Brandon Piers’ surprise for Abigail Green!
A surprise for that fat bitch Abigail!
Then what was she? What was she?
What was the meaning of her year-long scheming, the suffering she went through? What about the money she spent?
Ruby fell to the ground but still kept her eyes firmly fixed on Abigail and Brandon, thinking of the Twitter post she made when she arrived at the engagement venue, her whole body trembled with humiliation.
It was over. Everything was over!
Previously, she was highly praised by netizens. How much ridicule would she face after the engagement ceremony?
No. There would be more!
The dreams she had for a top-tier wealthy family shattered into foam at this moment, and the unwillingness in her eyes surged with intense resentment.
Why?
How could she lose to a stupid, pathetic fat girl, just because her luck was better, and she climbed into Brandon’s bed that night, hitting the jackpot on the first try?
She was not reconciled!
Ruby could not accept it. She didn’t understand why Abigail, who clearly died on the delivery bed, came back to life. She didn’t understand why those fools at Sincere Hospital didn’t kill that fat bitch. She also couldn’t understand why today, despite Gordon collecting the final payment and Mona Wilde being taken away by the police, this fat girl didn’t die.
Why?
Ruby’s intense emotions twisted her once delicate and tear-streaked face into a hideous mask.
But neither Abigail nor Brandon spared her a glance. The music restarted, and with linked hands, they slowly walked to the center of the stage.
Jacky Cheung’s deep and powerful voice sang emotionally.
“I learned to be intoxicated by love,
I never retreat,
You guard me through the night,
I am willing to walk this path of love with you,
You are the most precious…”
As “You are the Most Precious” played, Abigail couldn’t help but look at the man in the wheelchair. Coincidentally, Brandon also looked at her.
In that moment, the two shared a knowing smile.
The camera perfectly captured that moment.
On the ground, Ruby’s expression twisted further, Kelvin Max glanced at her, then looked at one of the media staff, who immediately understood and turned the camera to focus on Ruby, enlarging the moment the fairy tore off her mask on the screen.
Rose Taylor was the first to come back to her senses.
She was no less shocked than Ruby, but she was supported by a few waiters. When she heard her daughter ask that question, it was already too late to stop her.
Then Brandon’s reply made her lose face as well; she couldn’t control her emotions. It took her a long time to recover, and when she noticed the camera focusing on her daughter’s twisted face, she suddenly realized they couldn’t make more mistakes. She hurriedly broke free from the waiters’ grasp, ran to Ruby, and held her tightly to block the media’s cameras.
Ruby’s eyes were red with resentment. “Mom, it’s all that fat bitch’s fault. I want to kill her, kill her…”
“Listen to me. Everyone’s watching. We need to go home first,” Rose Taylor forcibly dragged Ruby.
But Ruby’s eyes rolled with hatred as she stared at the fat girl and the sickly man on the stage; she was crazed and wouldn’t listen to Rose.
Rose gave Adah, who was standing nearby, a fierce glare. “Are you dead? Get over here and help me!”
Adah had already been dumbfounded. She was startled by Rose’s scolding, gasping as she ran over to help Rose drag Ruby away.
The three of them left the estate in disgrace, looking like drowned rats, not even drawing much attention from the onlookers.
Lincoln Green had been in a trance since the event turned for the worse. His once seemingly outstanding stepdaughter was humiliated by Brandon, and his despised fat daughter became a true phoenix. He was momentarily at a loss for what to do. He continued to be in a daze even after the Taylor women left.
His mind was filled with questions. What on earth was going on?
