Chapter 134 The Reason Behind the Divorce
“Check this out,” Mrs. Meek instructed. Linda looked over when prompted.
Reporters rushed to ask their questions.
“Elisa, I’ve heard that since your divorce from Mr. Benett, you’ve been dating Mr. Darcey. Do you intend to wed Mr. Darcey?”
Linda sneered at the question. “Elisa is her own worst enemy. It’s only time that she destroys her own reputation.”
Rose scoffed in agreement. “Without Mr. Wickam, she is nothing. Now that the cat’s out of the bag on who Iris is, Gareth can’t even stand her face.”
Linda’s previous smile was replaced with a frown. Wasn’t she in the same position?
Mrs. Meek noticed her expression and quickly attempted to divert her attention. “Let’s pay attention to the live broadcast.”
In the live, the reporter questioned again, “Ms. Elisa, during your marriage, you had past conjugal visits with Mr. Darcey. Does this mean you divorced Mr. Benett just to be with Mr. Darcey? Were you openly cheating with him?”
Linda’s mood improved just from watching Elisa being berated by reporters.
Ben, who was behind Elisa for the whole time, started to break down in cold sweats.
Damn it!
Why are there so many reporters? This is ridiculous!
To make matters worse, they were blocking the exit out of the booth. Why hasn’t there been a commotion up until now?
Not to mention security! How could they let even a single reporter in?!
Everything was great up until the reporters came in! Why do they have to say such horrible things?!
I’m worried Elisa will blame me for this…
He looked over to Elisa.
Rachel at that moment was furious. She planned to head back after the meeting.
Elisa merely took Rachel’s hand and glared at the onslaught of paparazzi.
Elisa ignored the first reporter’s question, but their question infuriated her.
Elisa faced the reporter who was responsible for the questions. “Since this is turning into an interview, I must warn you that anything you say to me at this point, will be held against you. Possibly your very downfall when I plan your bankruptcy. Why? Because I am Iris.”
Another reporter staggered from her proclamation. This is a mistake! I should stop this questioning!
The surrounding mob panicked!
Reporters are known to be cruel when it comes to questions. However, their treatment of them is based solely on the interviewee’s notoriety. Unfortunately for them, they’ve crossed the wrong person, at the wrong time —the infamous top lawyer, known for her resolute nature in winning all her cases.
Immediately, reporters who initially prepared a line of personal questions for Elisa fell back.
Ben was panicking from the sea of paparazzi. All these reporters! When I leave, I’ll need to figure out how this happened!
The reporters still blocked the entrance for their exit. Even when Elisa had struck fear amongst them, they wouldn’t retreat. Her notoriety was worth the risk. A story like this would create huge waves; just an interview with Ms. Iris would set them a good story to last for months!
Linda turned green from envy. She used to view Elisa as some sort of circus clown when they first met, but now, Elisa was always ten steps ahead of her. Now…the playing field keeps getting unleveled!
Rose mocked, “So what if she’s Iris? Compared to the Benetts, she’s just a drop in the ocean. The family wealth will not be affected by some measly lawyer.”
“Well…this measly lawyer made Jerry Wickam lose the lawsuit. Elisa should not be underestimated.” Linda replied with an annoyed tone.
Her daughter had a point, so Rose nodded. “It’s a good thing that is grounded in these kinds of events. We must keep the good fight.”
Linda didn’t respond but continued watching the live stream.
Although the reporters were afraid of Elisa’s threat, they were adamant to get some answers.
A camera pointed toward her, while a reporter questioned, “Miss. Elisa, what is your reason for divorcing Garett Wickam?”
