Chapter 397 I am Selena Riddle
"I was not at all ill when I did this, I wanted my daughter to marry into the Walson family, so I carefully planned to destroy Selena on the eve of the wedding."
When Leah heard Molly's words, she roared out, "Mom!"
She glared viciously at Mrs. Riddle, not daring to believe that even her mother would help Selena to step on her.
Why?
She had clearly won against Selena.
Leah looked at Molly with more than a touch of hatred in her eyes.
Once Molly confessed, it meant that from now on, she would have a mother in jail.
Molly was shocked and extraordinarily sad by the hatred in her eyes. For the sake of winning Selena, she had even her mother.
Was it really that important to her to win over Selena?
Others on the scene showed expressions of surprise.
They never expected that Molly, who was about to be acquitted, would confess to the crime herself.
Leah roared out frantically, if she hadn't been seriously injured and unable to move in her wheelchair, she would have already jumped on Selena and torn her apart, "Selena, stop! What exactly did you say to my mother? You threatened her, didn't you? I protest, my mother's confession just now doesn't count, it was Selena who threatened her with despicable means."
Selena paused in her steps and slightly inclined her head, glancing at Leah with an icy smile, "Leah, from now on, you don't have a mother either."
Leah was stunned.
Selena mocked, "She was sacrificed by your abandonment, are you going to stand up to save her?"
Almost instantly, Leah knew why Molly had confessed her guilt.
She raised her hand to cover her face and burst into tears.
Even though she had premeditated to have Molly take the blame for her, she had never thought of actually sending her mother to jail.
Molly's illness was her biggest card, but...
Molly looked at her daughter's heartbroken appearance, her eyes were full of reluctance and remorse, crying, "Leah, I am here, don't be afraid. Listen to me, don't fight with Selena."
She can't compete with Selena, she will only ruin herself.
The crowd at the scene was somewhat distraught at the sight.
The Riddle family was finally scattered.
A trace of weariness swept across Selena's eyes.
If it had been the kind and innocent Selena who saw this scene, her heart would surely have softened and she would have been sad.
A home is still a home, even if it's not good.
But who made the simple and wonderful Selena already dead?
A biting coldness swept through Selena's eyes.
Leah will soon learn what it is like to live as a child without a mother.
She took one last look at the mother and daughter and lifted her steps inside.
From behind her came Leah's heartbreaking cries, "Selena, I'm at odds with you."
...
The moment she walked out the door, all the noise and crying in her ears was instantly distant, leaving only peace and quiet.
Selena exhaled a deep breath, lifted her fingers and rubbed her forehead.
Abruptly, Selena seemed to sense something, her gaze abruptly snapped and she turned her head to look behind her.
A blackened muzzle of a gun was aimed at her brow.
Matilda stood in front of the marble pillar, pointing her gun at her with one hand, her gaze cold, "Who are you? Where has the real Selena gone?"
Selena looked at Matilda's icy eyes, cold as she was.
Her expression gradually regained its calmness and she raised her steps towards Matilda.
She walked up to Matilda, caught her wrist and pointed the pitch-black gun backwards at Matilda's face, "Miss Wallace, I don't like people pointing such dangerous things at me, and-"
She slowly pulled the trigger, her tone cold and indifferent, the same as her eyes, "I am Selena Riddle."
The trigger was pulled and there was a "bang".
But it was not loaded inside.
Matilda's icy eyes fell on her face with scrutiny, and she remembered the girl she had saved two months ago, and she could not find any resemblance at all between her and this girl in front of her.
How can a person change so dramatically in such a short period of time?
But she said that she was Selena.
She was not lying.
No one had ever been able to lie successfully under the eyes of the Judge.
She really was Selena.
Matilda's ring finger clasped the handle of the gun and lowered the muzzle, then, she put away the gun.
Matilda looked at Selena and smiled gently, "I don't know how you became what you are now in such a short period of time, but it's quite good."
She lifted her eyes in the direction behind Selena and on her thin face, a blessed smile appeared, "Your vision is much better."
Having said that, she turned and left.
Selena turned around and looked up. In that direction, a slender and straight man dressed in black was strolling over, holding a pitch-black umbrella.
Selena looked at his perfect face and a cheerful smile appeared on her face.
Osvaldo walked over to her and held out his hand to her, his deep black eyes with a touch of tenderness, "Come."
Selena smiled, "Did you come to take me home?"
Osvaldo gave a smile, "Yes".
The cool breeze, accompanied by rain and mist, blew on her face, Selena felt cold, she smiled and placed her hand into the man's warm palm.
Osvaldo pulled her into his arms. The umbrella in his hand tilted slightly, shielding her impermeably, while most of his shoulders were outside the umbrella.
The two of them walked together into the storm and soon disappeared.
...
The day Molly's verdict came out, the weather was as good as it had ever been.
The court issued a formal notice sentencing Molly to five years in prison for the offence of intentional wounding.
At that time, Selena was ready to go to class.
Leia muttered, dissatisfied, "I can't believe it's only been five years. That old woman is so vicious, even if it's a life sentence, she still deserves it."
Selena was no surprised. After all, Molly was only guilty of intentional wounding, not murder and arson, and the sentence of five years was already the result of the arguments of the Olympus Group's lawyers.
"Five years can change so much, who knows what Leah was like when she came out?"
When Leia thought about it, she handed the school bag to Selena with a smile, "Madam, go ahead."
Selena smiled, carried her school bag and walked into the campus.
With Selena's name had been cleaned up, the only thing left to do is the perfume competition and the script.
When everything in Creephia was over, she could go home.

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...
