Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 585

Chapter 585 I Am Really Stupid

The Taggart family has their eyes on me?

Anya was completely unaware of that. She had registered a new account and posted it online after recording the video at the banquet. She then continued to attend the banquet with Nigel as if nothing had happened and returned to her hotel after the banquet ended and remained there throughout the night.

For more than half the time, Anya was constantly checking if people were viewing her video and did not pay any attention to the newest public opinion.

She was the one who killed Madison. Given the Taggart family’s vengeful nature, it would be a lie if she claimed that she wasn’t scared of them.

After all, if the truth was revealed, not only would she be sentenced to decades in prison, but she would also lose her status, reputation, and freedom. She was not even sure if she would be able to come out of prison alive.

She was certain that the Taggart family would not let her off.

At the thought of the hopeless situation she could potentially face, Anya dropped to the ground in tears.

Hugging Nigel’s thighs, she said, “Dad, I’ve realized my mistake. We can’t let the Taggart family find out the truth. I don’t want to go to jail. Please help me just this once!”

Seeing Anya’s tears and pitiful expression, Nigel felt his heart ache.

He doted on his daughter ever since she was young and had given her nothing but the best.

Even though Christina’s presence was an obstacle to his plans, Nigel was still hoping that his children. would be the ones inheriting Gibson Corporation.

Despite her timid nature, Anya had always listened to Nigel. Moreover, she had always lived up to his expectations and had never disappointed him.

Nigel simply could not bring himself to give up on the daughter whom he had spent so much effort. raising.

“Anya, you’ve really committed a huge mistake this time.” The man sighed. “The scandal involving the Langford family, the Cook family, and the Forrester family was none of your business. You should have never gotten yourself involved in this mess.”

Knowing that it was too late for regrets, Anya started to cry even harder.

“Dad, I didn’t know Zeila has such a complicated background. My intention was to ruin Christina’s reputation. I didn’t expect Madison’s murder case to be brought up.”

Initially, the discussion online had steered in the direction Anya had predicted.

Even if it was revealed that Anya was the one who posted the video, there was no reason anyone would link it to Madison’s case.

Suddenly, a thought struck Anya. “Dad, it’s Christina. I’m sure she was the one behind it. She must have gotten someone to expose Madison’s murder. She’s trying to get back at me for posting the video that humiliated her and Gabrielle!”

As Christina was also a victim, it had never occurred to Nigel that she could be the instigator.

Realization finally dawned upon him when he heard his daughter’s words, and anger rose in him like a tide.

However, what angered him more was that Anya had thwarted his plans.

The next moment, Nigel slapped his daughter across the face.
