The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 322

Seeing Riley enter the office, Holly immediately pulled her into the adjacent on-call room. “Did you know your mom came to the hospital?”

Riley shook her head.

Holly quickly pulled out her phone and showed Riley a video.

In the video, Elaine Vance stood in the outpatient lobby, tearfully delivering an Oscar-worthy performance about how hard she had worked to raise her daughter, only for her daughter to care about nothing but her own luxury while ignoring her parents' survival. She even wiped away tears as she reached the emotional climax.

She completely painted herself as the tragic victim while portraying her daughter as a heartless, worthless ingrate.

A large crowd surrounded her, some sympathizing with Elaine, others cursing Riley for having no conscience.

Riley frowned as she watched the video, the warmth draining from her eyes. She thought Elaine had just been making empty threats that day. She never expected her to travel all the way to Statenbury to pull such a ruthless stunt.

However, one thing surprised her. Elaine was hot-tempered and uneducated. Standing in front of a crowd and directly cursing her out as an ungrateful wretch was much more her style.

How did she suddenly know how to play the victim to garner sympathy?

“Although this video hasn't gone viral, basically everyone in the hospital knows about it.” Holly looked at Riley with deep concern. “Your mom said in the video that she's coming back today. If there's some misunderstanding, you need to clear it up with her. You can't let her keep causing a scene like this; it's going to ruin your reputation.”

Riley nodded. “I understand. Thank you for telling me. Go back to work. I need to make a call.”

Holly walked to the door, then turned back to look at Riley. “Don't be sad. Just communicate with her properly. I believe in you.”

A rush of warmth spread through Riley's chest. She smiled faintly, offering Holly a reassuring look. “Okay.”
