Chapter 191
The loud bang was standing, shaking the floor beneath it,
Tilda jumped in fright,
yes and saw Edwin’s car had already driven past her, speeding
weeding toward the approaching reporters.
She focused her eyes
The reporters, caught off guard by the sudden vehicle, scrambled to get out of the way.
In an instant, the car disappeared from sight.
With strange expressions, the reporters gathered around the car parked 6 feet away from Tilda
The car she had arrived in was now severely damaged,
The front bumper was deeply dented, and the headlights shattered, scattering glass everywhere.
The impact had misaligned the car due to gravity.
“Wow, just now Mr. Stanley actually… actually…” a reporter couldn’t help but exclaim, his expression exaggerated.
Everyone had clearly seen Edwin, for the sake of his ex–wife, not only abandoned his fiancée Tilda in the garage but also crashed her car.
He could have easily waited for Tilda to move her car.
But he was in such a rush he couldn’t ev
I even spare that time.
Sluron’s significance to Edwin was more than just a little greater than Tilda’s
Tilda’s eyes trembled as she silently clenched her fingers, staring at the wrecked car in front of her.
The damage extended beyond just a car. It was her entire reputation
Edwin, for Sharon, disregarded even Talia’s kindness. No matter how many words I say now, I can’t salvage anything. Edwin has repeatedly humiliated me in front of the reporters, turning me into a complete joke, she wondered.
Thinking of this, Tilda was filled with resentiment, yet she glared at the approaching reporters. “You all better know how to write today’s news. If anyone dares to spread nonsense, don’t blame me for not warning you when the Stanley family comes after you?”
After saying this, she left angrily..
Tilda returned to the dressing room, her mind in chaos and filled with frustration, longing to vent her feelings
As she entered, she saw Shirley and the friends who had been with her earlier.
“What happened! I heard Mr. Stanley left?” Shirley’s face was dark, and she immediately questioned Tilda upon seeing her without any of the previous politeness.
Tilda was utterly frustrated but had to muster the strength to respond. “Something important came up suddenly. He had to go handle it
“What could be more important than his own engagement?” A girl with the stage name Ava Cooper, whom Tilda had humiliated earlier, spoke out bluntly. “I think Mr. Stanley just doesn’t care about you at all!”
She did not forget Tilda’s humiliation just now. She could use this opportunity to take revenge
This statement was:
was akin to a slap i
in Tilda’s face, filled with both anger and shame, almost making her lunge at Ava to pull her hair out!
“Shirley, she’s so disrespectful. Aren’t you going to do something about it? Tilda reminded Shirley, struggling to keep her temper in check.
Edwin’s departure hadalready exasperated Shirley, who was extremely disappointed in Tilda.
Hearing Tilda’s complaim, Shirley made a token attempt to scold Ava before turning back to Tilda. “Did Mr. Stanley say when he’ll be back! He’s the nuin character today. How can he just not show up! What about your reputation?”
This statement only deepened Tilda’s wounds, making her want to bang her head against the wall out of embarrassment.
But Edwin wouldn’t listen to her, and Tilda had no way to bring him back.
Swallowing all her hatred and resentment, Tikla feigned calmness. “Irene’s mother is missing and feared dead, and Irene is crying out of fear. Ása father, he can’t ignore that. Of course, he had to find Irene’s mother. It was I who insisted he go. He will explain everything later.”

“Humph!” Ava snorted disbelievingly, full of sarcasm. “You’re really good at making yourself look good!”
Shirley could also see that Edwin didn’t care much for Tilda. Otherwise, as a CEO with many people at his disposal, why would he personally deal with his ex–wife?
But given the current situation, there was no point in saying n
ΠΤΗΣΕ
Besides. Tilda’s explanation could somewhat smooth things over with the crowd. She preferred Tilda to stay connected with the Stanley family and didn’t reveal the truth
Shirley simply said. “If Mr. Stanley can’t come, having Mrs. Stanley here would suffice.
After saying this, Shirley gave Tilda a meaningful look and left with her friends.
Tilda stood there, understanding Shirley’s point.
If Edwin couldn’t come, having Jasmine show support would save her from complete humiliation.
In the future, Tilda could at least claim to have been acknowledged by the Stanley family, which would bolster her confidence.
With this in mind. Tilda took out her phone to call Jasmine.
To her surprise, Jasmine’s ph
phone was of
Tilda thought she had dialed the wrong number and tried several more times, but the result was
With her last hope shattered, she furiously smashed her phone to the ground.
The phone shattered into pieces with a loud crash
the same. “Damn it”
But that wasn’t enough. She went into a frenzy, sweeping all the makeup products off the vanity table, sending them crashing to the floor.
When Edwin arrived at the supermarket, a police line had already been set up,
Irene was being held by someone, crying miserably.
Her eyes and nose were bright red, and she kept calling out, “Mommy, Grandpa”
Edwin rushed over and took her into his arms.
Seeing him. Irene cried and pushed him away, “Daddy, Mommy.. Grandpa, save them!”
Only then did Edwin realize that it wasn’t just the shelves that had collapsed but half of the building.
Irene had been pushed out by Sharon and then taken out by the supermarket’s emergency personnel.
She only
remembered the shelves falling, so that was what she told Edwin.
While comforting Irene, Edwin approached the emergency response leader and identified himself
Learning that he was a family member of those trapped, the leader’s face turned grave. “We’re doing everything we can to rescue them, but there are too many shelves, and the building collapse is severe. It’s going to take time to get everyone out”
Irene, understanding only a bit of what she beard, picked up on one thing. Rescuing people would be very difficult
She cried even harder. “Daddy, I want Mommy and Grandpa. Please, save them. Please
