hapter 240 Turning to the Fans
Leona did not answer his question.
After a long silence, she asked him again, “So was it Scarlett who told you? Tell me whether it was her. If you do, I can choose not to sue you.”
Zayden sneered. “Get lost. Both you and your daughter are thieves. All you know how to do is steal. You ruined me, and don’t think you’ll get away with it. You’re afraid of Scarlett, aren’t you?
“Don’t worry. She will definitely become your nightmare. You and your daughter will surely be utterly ruined because of her.
“You will end your lives in an extremely miserable way–hundreds, thousands of times worse than me.”
Zayden spoke with fierce satisfaction.
He firmly believed that Scarlett would never let the mother and daughter off.
There had to be an irreconcilable hatred between them.
With Scarlett around, their fate would not stop here.
They would only become more miserable.
Since they had caused him to end up like this, they would never have an easy future either.
His words sounded like a curse, turning Leona’s face pale.
Leona failed to get any real answer from him, but in her heart, she had already guessed the truth.
It must be because Scarlett understood the occult. Perhaps she had seen something at the airport and told Zayden about it during the show.
That ungrateful wretch! Leona raised her for five years, and she was still so ungrateful.
Leona clenched her teeth.
At this point, she had no way to deal with Scarlett.
Originally, she had planned to take advantage of Scarlett’s disfigurement by sending her onto the show, exposing her wounds and ugly face to the public, making her feel inferior so she would obediently return to the Baileys, submit to her control, and hand over the crystal bead.
But who could have expected that Scarlett would inherit Patrick’s medical skills and his scar–removal cream, heal her face, and even become wildly popular on the show?
Now that little wretch had completely slipped out of her grasp.
It was impossible to suppress Scarlett using her birth mother anymore.
Scarlett had already taken Daphne out of the rehabilitation hospital and sent her back to the Sanchezes.

Chapter 240 Turning to the Fans

Neither she nor Matthew was Daphne’s legal guardian, and there was no way to bring her back.
Most importantly, deep down, Leona felt a faint fear of Scarlett.
She was worried that if anything happened to Daphne, Scarlett might truly be capable of anything.
“Hazel, don’t be afraid. Don’t be afraid. Mommy will protect you,” Leona murmured as she looked at her daughter lying on the hospital bed, crying like she had lost her mind.
Even if she couldn’t touch Scarlett for now, she would never allow Scarlett to shine gloriously online without interference.
Looking at her daughter crying so miserably, she took out her phone and snapped several photos.
After that, she selected a few of them.
In the photos, Hazel’s right eye was covered with gauze. Her long, straight hair was slightly messy. Tears fell from her left eye. The corners of her eyes were red, and so were the tip of her nose and her cheeks.
It had to be said, Leona had good photography skills. Even though Hazel had been crying hysterically, she managed to capture her in a way that made her look pitiful and fragile.
Leona sent the photos to one of Hazel’s fan groups.
This fan group was rather special.
The number of members was small, but they had supported Hazel since her debut. They were also relatively wealthy fans and highly influential.
It could be said they were the backbone of her fandom.
There were about a dozen people in the group, and each of them was the leader of another Hazel fan
group.
Among them was the fan who had followed Hazel the longest and had the strongest influence–the biggest fan–site owner and head fan,
Practically all of Hazel’s fans knew her.
She was extremely influential.
Her online name was Aurora.
No one knew her real name. She appeared to be in her twenties, and her family was quite wealthy. Her father reportedly owned a coal mining company.
In the past, she had given Hazel countless gifts, totaling over ten million.
She adored Hazel deeply.
Aurora had been very worried about Hazel these past few days and had been asking about her condition in the group chat.
