The last sentence struck Leah's heart like a deafening blow, and when she met Selena's azure black and cold eyes, she staggered back a few steps, explaining almost incoherently, "No, no, no. I don't mean that."
Selena's eyes were creepy, "You said you were jealous that I was prettier than you, so you took advantage of my previous weakness of liking Dominic and joined forces with Angie to set me up, saying he liked women with flattering looks."
"You said you were jealous that I came from a more legitimate name than you, so all these years at events within the noble circle, Molly never brought me, and every time only you were present. Before the wedding, the whole of Creephia only knew that you, Leah, were Ms. Riddle, and I, the legitimate daughter, was only the nymphomaniacal and foolish Second Miss."
"You said you were jealous that I was smarter than you and got better grades than you, so Molly threatened me that I couldn't get higher than you in my exams. I did well in my A-Levels, and when I went to university, I suffered from campus cold violence and being vilified for cheating."
"You said you were jealous that I had the best childhood friend, so my childhood friend went to bed with you and became yours."
"You said you were jealous that the first person everyone looked at was me, and you could always cower in the back. How can you have the nerve to say such things?"
As Selena said each word, Leah felt as if each word was a heavy slap on her face, and the way she looked at Selena became frightened.
She had a sudden, belated and clear moment of recognition.
She could not play lip service with Selena, in front of her, absolutely not to say too much, or there would be more mistakes.

The readers' comments on the novel: Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
From the beginning of the story to page 148, the plot is just going in circles about fighting. So ridiculous and waste of time to read! I have no patience for these kind stories. Be more creative if you’re planning to write a book/story!!!...
Beautiful story...
