I Stopped Loving Him When He Let Me Bleed Out novel Chapter 198

Ford remained quiet, waiting for her to elaborate.

Yolanda rose from her chair and walked over to the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Below lay the sprawling Fletcher estate gardens, the manicured lawns perfectly leveled and the grand fountain catching the afternoon sunlight.

She stood there, her back to Ford.

"She wants to come, doesn't she? Let her. The more guests, the better. I want every single elite in this city to witness exactly what kind of cheap trash she really is."

Yolanda turned around, locking eyes with Ford.

"A nobody from a small town with working-class parents. She used Finn to gain access to our circle, got dumped, and still refuses to let go." Her voice wasn't loud, but every word was a sharpened blade.

"A demoted doctor exiled to a dump like Willow Creek, yet she still found a way to seduce Finn into visiting her. God knows what lies she fed him or what pathetic tricks she used to make him come back and scream at me. I absolutely refuse to swallow this insult!"

Ford's fingers paused on his knee.

"Mom, are you planning to..."

"I'm not planning to do anything. I've already arranged it," Yolanda said, walking back to her desk and sitting down, picking up her cold coffee once more.

"On the night of my birthday gala, I've secured access for a select group of reporters. Not respectable journalists, mind you, but the bottom-feeders who dig up scandalous tabloid trash. They won't write a single negative word about the Fletcher family, but they will relentlessly tear into Sienna. A disgraced young female doctor? Oh, they'll have a field day with that."

She took a sip of her coffee and set the cup aside.

"The narrative is flawless: A social climber from the slums doing whatever it takes to secure a proposal. Stalking her ex-boyfriend, destroying his new relationship, harassing his mother, and throwing a public tantrum at a high-society gala." She paused, a chilling smile spreading across her lips. "The public eats that kind of drama up. By the next morning, the entire city will know exactly what kind of whore she is. What hospital would dare hire her then? Where could she possibly show her face?"

Ford held her gaze and nodded slowly.
