Chapter 518 Fight Back Selena's tone remained unchanged as she walked straight towards the center of the stage. "Since | don't know you, there's no need for me to answer your idiotic questions." This undoubtedly angered the person speaking, whose voice suddenly became sharp. "How dare you curse at me?" Before Selena could respond, Patrick's icy voice had already sounded. "Lady Selena is right. If you're not an idiot, then it's not your turn to speak at this time." The person obviously paused for a moment, then sneered angrily, "You are a sickly person who won't live long, what are you pretending to be a hero for? Do you still think the Turner family is the same as before? The capital is no longer under your family's control--" Selena's gaze suddenly turned cold, and a terrifying aura emanated from her body as she stared coldly in that direction, fixated on the box.
Tonyan Town.
Hattie threw the object in her hand onto the ground, startling everyone.
The crowd looked up to see her face, icy and bone-chilling.
Hattie jumped off the sofa and grabbed the phone she had thrown aside, dialing Leon's number.
Leon must have been mentally prepared, as he picked up the phone quickly, but before he could say anything. Hattie spoke first, her face expressionless and cold. "Brother, if you keep dealing with these unsavory things and using your status to make Selena unhappy, | will disown you just like Selena did." Leon seemed to have said something, but Hattie frowned and for once, worry appeared on her otherwise emotionless face.

At the fragrance competition venue, Selena's sudden anger frightened the people around her.
The crowd looked at her with fear, feeling a bit intimidated.
After a long time, Selena suddenly lowered her long eyelashes, covering up the icy coldness in her eyes.
She suppressed her cold killing intent, smiled faintly, and spoke in a tone devoid of warmth, "Kaitlyn made a mistake with her words, so | made her kneel in front of everyone and apologize to Hattie." She will forever be nailed to the position of illegitimate daughter.” She let out a cold laugh and said, "Whoever you are, | remember what you said with your mouth!" After a while, she spoke again with a domineering tone that seemed to be trying to cover up her nervousness. "Selena, you're trying to change the subject! | asked those questions to uncover the truth. As a person involved in this, you have a duty to clarify things for everyone. But you keep beating around the bush and don't even have the courage to face the truth. What are you afraid of?" A sneer appeared at the corner of Selena’s lips. She withdrew her gaze and ignored her words.
Kaitlyn became even more angry and turned her attention to the Perfume Association. "What is the Perfume Association doing? Mr. Mitchell is a member of your association. Selena has left so many loopholes in her story that it's very likely she's falsely accusing him. Why aren't you investigating?” The people from the Perfume Association lowered their heads and no one answered her question. The older generation's expressions were even worse.
They had originally thought that Selena had just started to make a name for herself in the perfume industry and had been relatively unknown before. They didn't think she would attract the attention of people in the capital so quickly.
But they didn't expect her to act so quickly. The Perfume Association had only received a verbal warning last night, but someone had come to Selena's door early this morning specifically to pick a fight.
This meant that Selena's existence was no longer a secret in the capital. And from the behavior of this woman who suddenly appeared to pick a fight, it seemed that Selena had already been targeted by some people in the capital.
The older perfumers thought of Lady Nevaeh, who had a tragic fate, and all of them had deep concerns written on their faces.
Leah's expression at the moment was also full of doubt.
She had originally thought that the people in the private room on the second floor were sent by the person who was supporting her from behind to help her deal with Selena, but upon seeing this scene, she began to have doubts again.
According to the methods of the person she was working with, they would never send someone as brainless as this.
Then who are these people who deliberately came to target Selena? Leah couldn't figure it out, but she had a vague sense that they seemed to be specially here for Selena, and their identity must be extraordinary.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was very likely that they were from the powerful families and forces in the capital.
Thinking of Patrick, who had come to speak for Selena, Ghost who had protected Selena repeatedly, Selena's boyfriend, and the Riddle family from the capital who were constantly in the background...
Leah was so jealous that her heart was bleeding.
In her eyes, Selena of the past was just a person who was irrelevant and could be played with at will, but she never thought that one day she would climb to a height that she could never reach.
Selena had become the object of affection of the excellent men from the capital, while she could only stay in Creephia, guarding the Riddle family who were in turmoil, and treating Dominic as her last straw...
This huge gap was something that Leah could not accept no matter what. She grimaced and wished she could tear Selena apart.
But in reality, all she could do was sit here and hope that the person targeting Selena in the private room on the second floor could help her turn the tables and crush Selena under her feet.
And just as the sharp voice sounded for the third time in the private room, the audience couldn't help but start to shout back.
"Are you stupid or what? Lady Selena already said that this kind of question is idiotic. Can't you understand human language?” "I don't think she's stupid, she's just sick in the head and deliberately picking on Lady Selena! In this formal occasion, to seek justice for that beast Beatrix, is just insane!" "Anyone who even remotely cares about this year's fragrance competition knows how idiotic these questions are. These bigwigs act like they have no brains at all!" "Lady Selena, don't mind this brainless person. Don't give up the chance to seek justice for yourself because of her. We are all waiting for you to reveal the truth from three years ago!" The woman who spoke obviously didn't expect to be suddenly berated by so many people, and angrily said, "You... you have a lot of nerve..." "Yes, we have the nerve to criticize you. So what? Do you think this is the Middle Ages and everyone should be afraid of your family background and bow down to you? It's one thing to hide your face, but try showing it to us. Just because of what you said to Mr. Turner earlier, we won't stop until your family name is notorious!"
