After Rebirth She Strikes Back (Simone) novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27

With that, Whitney bowed to Samuel. “Mr. Spence, thank you for taking care of me all these years. I’m getting old and can’t keep up anymore, so it’s time for me to go home and retire.

After Whitney left, Samuel couldn’t stop thinking about her words. They lingered in his mind, stirring up memories of the past. Even Charles and Raymond, who were usually talkative, fell into an unusual silence, lost in their own thoughts of childhood.

Samuel knew he probably wouldn’t get an answer from Norals. However, he gave her one last look and probed again. Just tell me the truth. Did you really not send Simone a single penny while she was studying abroad?”

Norah gave a reluctant nod. Even if she stayed silent, Samuel would eventually figure it out, so it was better to just come clean. Samuel, I was just thinking about our daughter. Simone’s just an adopted child, after all,

That’s enough. I don’t want to hear another word,” Samuel let out a heavy sigh, refusing to deal with Norah any longer.

The online drama was spiraling out of control. As soon as Samuel stepped into the office, the head of the operations department stopped him nervously. Mr. Spence, how should we respond to this?he asked, handing over his phone.

Samuel took the phone, his heart sinking as his eyes landed on the word exile.

For five years, he hadn’t called Simone even once in all that time. Sending her abroad and completely ignoring her was no different from exile. Simone was right, and he had no way to argue.

Without hesitation, Samuel typed out a reply. [@Simone It wasn’t studying abroad. I’m sorry. The Spence family mistreated you.]

The Spence Group’s public apology to Simone sent shockwaves through the internet.

[Damn! The Spence family is absolutely shameless!]

Poor Simone! If this is what they call adoption, they should’ve just left her alone. She’d probably be living a much better life now!

The backlash against the Spence family grew even more intense, with insults becoming increasingly vicious. A comment suggesting Simone should be grateful was bombarded so heavily that the account behind it had to be deactivated

For the past two days, employees at the Irwin Group had been working overtime. They were tasked with deleting the photos, which showed Simone’s full face, from the internet

Cyrus sat at his desk, replaying the video of Simone arguing with Stella over and over again. In the footage, Simone was like a protective wolf unbelding Samuel, that bastard.

The scene brought back memories of the first time Cyrus met Simone. His expression hardened as he recalled how she’d boldly threatened him, her own father, during their first meeting.

Cyrus thought Samuel didn’t deserve to be called a father. Samuel hurt Simone deeply, yet Simone still stood up for him. She was too softhearted for her own goud, even though Samuel treated her badly.

As Cyrus thought about those pitiful financial records, his expression grew colder. He thought the Spence family was truly despicable.

The next day, 15 million dollars appeared in Simone’s bank account. One glance was enough for her to know it came from Samuel.

Shortly after, a message from Samuel followed. (Simone, I’m sorry, I didn’t realize how much you suffered at the Spence residence. Please take this as compensation.]

Simone didn’t hesitate to accept the money. She didn’t owe Samuel anything in her previous life. In her eyes, the money was just overdue umetest small price for the grievances and emotional damage she endured at the Spence residence.

Samuel Sumone, can we

Simone barely looked at the message before deleting it. Then she erased his contact entirely. Only after doing so did she feel a sense of relief wash

Whatever bond they once had as father and daughter had been completely drained in her previous life. In this one, she wanted nothing to do with

Chapter 27

The evening was set for the Irwin family dinner, and Simone accompanied Cyrus to the Irwin Mansion.

Upon seeing Graham, Simone offered a faint smile.

Graham snorted coldly, ignoring her entirely. Instead, he turned to Cyrus time. He was still not over it

vrus and asked.

Why did you bring her hereSimone humiliated him last

Cyrus frowned and said with some annoyance, Simone is my daughter. She has every right to be here. If you don’t want her here, well leave

Graham was momentarily at a loss for words. He let out another cold snort but chose to remain silent.

Cyrus turned to Sumone, his voice softening. “Don’t mind your grandfather, Simone. He’s old and says things without thinking

Simone smiled faintly. It’s fine. I won’t hold it against him.

She truly didn’t care about Graham’s attitude. She thought. Im not here to win his approval, Whether he’s happy or not has nothing to do with me

Graham’s expression darkened further. He thought, Am I invisible? Are they treating me like I’m not even here!

There was still some time before the dinner officially began, but most of the guests had already arrived.

Graham gathered everyone together and began by formally introducing Simone.

Though he disliked her. Simone was undeniably part of the Irwin bloodline. And with Cyrus insisting on acknowledging her, Graham begrudgingly upheld the family’s decorum.

As Graham finished speaking, all eyes in the room turned to Simone. He gestured toward the elegant woman and the burly man seated on the sofa.

This is your Aunt Sophia, and beside her is her husband Lucas

Simone glanced at the pair and nodded slightly in greeting.

Once he finished introducing them, Graham turned to his second son. This is your Uncle Nolan.
