Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 781 Why? Hattie was so angry that her eyes turned red, but she couldn't find the words to refute Selena. She grabbed Selena's hand and explained, "Selena, I'm sorry..." It was a fact that she had called Penelope her sister for more than ten years before she knew Selena existed.

Given Selena's personality, Hattie was afraid that Selena would never talk to her again if she got angry.

Selena rubbed Hattie's hair and said with no special emotion, "I'm not angry." Penelope doesn't deserve it.

She sighed slightly and thought to herself that she was glad it was her who came to the capital, not the real Selena. The Turner family's storm was one thing, but even the Riddle family was enough to turn that girl's life into a joke.

Hattie was deeply shocked by Selena's rejection and disgust.

She suddenly felt panicked.

At this moment, she had a clear understanding.

Selena would never return to the Riddle family, let alone recognize any of them. She thought the people of the Riddle family were too dirty...

When Penelope heard Selena's words, she clenched her fist and a look of resentment flashed in her eyes. She said with a smile, "But Lady Selena, don't be too sad. When we go back home tonight, I'l tell Grandpa and Grandma that you've come back. I'll persuade them to call you and allow you to visit the Riddle family..." Hattie suddenly turned around, grabbed a nearby vase, and smashed it at Penelope's face.

Penelope probably never expected Hattie to suddenly attack her. She didn't have time to dodge, and was hit hard on the forehead by the vase. She screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

The young ladies who came with her screamed and rushed to help her up.

The shop was suddenly in chaos.

Selena sighed and hugged Hattie, who was shining with a violent light in her eyes, and comforted her gently, "Hattie, Selena is not angry or upset. Don't be afraid." Hattie trembled in her arms.

She looked at Penelope, who was bleeding from her forehead, and a flash of killing intent appeared in her eyes.

Penelope shrank back when she met Hattie's gaze, and her group of sisters began to blame Hattie and Selena for what had happened.

"Hattie, Penelope meant well. How could you hit her?" "Selena, Penelope is willing to speak to her Grandma and Grandpa on your behalf to let you return to the Riddle family. If you don't appreciate it, how can you be so ungrateful?" "Hattie, you and Penelope are sisters. What did Selena say to you that made you do this?" Hattie's eyes were filled with more and more ferocity. If it weren't for Selena holding her back, she would have pounced on those women and torn them apart.

Selena stared at Penelope and her lips curled. "I really wasn't interested in getting involved with the Riddle family, but since you've come looking for trouble, don't blame me. Don't think that just because of my mother's status..." Penelope's teeth were chattering, and she looked at Selena with a hint of envy or maybe some other reason, her eyes filled with resentment.

She covered her forehead and sneered, "Lady Selena, you really overestimate yourself. | am a high-born lady of the Riddle family, while you're just a nobody from Creephia, an unloved girl from a small family. You're not even a bastard, so what are you?" Selena narrowed her eyes and stared at Penelope's expression, feeling a strange sensation rising in her heart.

She hadn't really thought much of Penelope before, but now hearing her speak, she found her particularly annoying.

Why? Inside the door, Lady Lauren's eyes grew darker, and her beautiful face took on a deep expression, as if she had thought of something.

Leia was in tears. "Madam Lauren, if you don't come out now, that woman will bully Selena to death!" Seeing Selena's silence, Penelope thought she had struck a nerve. She stood up with the help of the other women, lifted her chin, and looked at Selena. "Lady Selena, you need to understand one fact. Blood doesn't mean everything. You may be the biological daughter of the Riddle family, but | am the one who has been with my grandparents for so many years. You don't have the right to compete with me, and of course, you can't beat me." Selena felt that strange sensation growing stronger.

She stared at Penelope as if trying to see deep into her heart.

Penelope felt uneasy, but she continued, "Lady Selena, sometimes people just have to accept their fate. | grew up in the Riddle family, and my grandparents and all my uncles and aunts loved me dearly, like the apple of their eye. As for you, your parents died early, your foster father disliked you, your sister hated you, your childhood friend betrayed you. No one likes you." "Grandpa and Grandma have always known of your existence, but they would rather keep me than go and greet you. You have to look for the reasons within yourself." "If one person doesn't like you, maybe that person is in the wrong, but if nobody likes you, it means your existence is a mistake!" These words were often said by the people in Creephia before, and Selena listened without any emotion.

She was thinking about Penelope's motives, but the others couldn't bear to listen anymore.

"Who said nobody likes Selena?" With these words, Lady Lauren walked out from behind the door and looked at Penelope with cold eyes as she turned pale. "My son likes her, and he likes her so much that everyone knows it. If | tell my son about what you said today, guess what he'll do?" The young ladies present were all stunned when they suddenly saw Lady Lauren.

Penelope's face suddenly lost all its color in an instant, and she looked at Lady Lauren in a daze, "Madam..." Lady Lauren walked up to Selena and affectionately touched her face with her hand. "You silly, aren't you always so clever with words? How come you didn’t know how to fight back when someone bullied you today?" She smiled slightly and looked at the group of women across from her. The coldness in her eyes was full of the majesty of nobility. "My son said that you are the only one who is supreme in the entire capital, and even if you kill and set fire in it, you are allowed to do so." Penelope's face turned even whiter, and even her body trembled for a moment.

Selena smiled slightly, "Madam, I'm thinking about why Miss Penelope has such strong hostility towards me..." Penelope didn't seem like the kind of woman who was stupid enough to come and target her deliberately before it even started.

And her hostility towards her was not something that could be easily concealed.

"You're so beautiful, isn't it normal for her to envy you?" Lady Lauren smiled...
