Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh novel Chapter 416

Kaitlyn suddenly saw Hattie and her face turned pale. Her eyes were filled with fear, couldn't bear to look into Hattie's eyes full of hatred.
She knows she's done for today!
With Hattie around, no one would dare to go against her.
Angus obviously did not expect to see Hattie here either, and only then did he understand why, before leaving, the new madam had said Kaitlyn would definitely be humiliated today, so that he could help look after her somehow.
At first, he didn't think it was necessary. Selena is an adult after all, and although Kaitlyn had to apologize to her due to public opinion, there was no need to go so far as to kneel down and kowtow.
But seeing Hattie, he understood everything.
With this girl around, he didn't even dare to say a word openly for Kaitlyn.
After all, this is in public view, with surveillance cameras, and while two elderly of the Riddle falimy may be able to get away with some deception, Leon is not someone who can be easily tricked. If he sees that they have wronged Hattie in public, he will definitely not let it go and seek justice.
Angus secretly patted Kaitlyn's shoulder, signalling her to calm down, and then took a step back.
Kaitlyn's face was pale and her lips were trembling uncontrollably.
Hattie suppressed the hatred and fear bubbling up from deep within her, as she coldly snorted while looking at her.
Selena is right, they should be afraid of her.
She should stand tall and look down at the illegitimate daughter who killed her mother, seeking revenge for her mother!
Hattie lifted her chin and asked coldly, "Who do you think is the only young lady of the Riddle family?"
Kaitlyn's heart was filled with hatred, and she cried pitifully, saying "It's... you..."
Hattie snorted, her pale face devoid of any color or warmth, her eyes filled with cold contempt. "What are you? How dare you call yourself a member of the Riddle family? In the Riddle family, there are only two young ladies, Selena and myself. Who gave you permission to use the surname Riddle? Who allowed you to enter the Riddle family's gate? What gives you the nerve to claim that you are the only young lady of the Riddle family?"
Kaitlyn felt her heart ache from Hattie's words, and she became even more pitiful crying, but she dared not to argue.
Her mother went to the Riddle family when Hattie's mother passed away, and was pushed down the stairs by Hattie, resulting in a miscarriage. The Riddle family agreed to send her away and educate her for a while to cover up this scandal, as well as because Hattie was mentally unstable during that period and caused too much trouble..
The elderly the Riddle family couldn't stand her father's fuss and had to reluctantly calm down, especially considering the reputation of her and her mother, they welcomed her mother into the house.
But there was no wedding, no certificate, nothing...
Her mother not only moved in with the Riddle family but also had the status of a mistress, and she and her brother were illegitimate children.
Compared to Hattie, she will always be overshadowed by her.
Kaitlyn was crying her heart out, but no one at the scene sympathized with her.
After all, it's Hattie who has been hurt and lost her mother, not Kaitlyn.
Kaitlyn was crying uncontrollably, "I'm sorry..."
Hattie spoke coldly, and her eyes were filled with disgust and contempt as she said, "Selena and I are the only young ladies of the Riddle family. My mother is the only female head of the Riddle family. I am not dead, you and your mother and brother will forever be lowly mistresses and illegitimate children, remember this well. Next time I hear you dare to claim the title of young master and miss of the Riddle family, I will have someone beat your mouths!"
Selena's eyebrows and eyes were light, and there was no trace of movement in her dark eyes when she heard Hattie's defense.
Kaitlyn looked up with tears rolling down her cheeks, crying miserably.
Hattie clenched her fist, her dark eyes tinged with a hint of blood-red. "Now, kneel down and apologize to me and my mother!"
It's not just her and her mother who should be crying. The people who caused her harm and ultimately led to her death should be crying even more miserably.
Kaitlyn's shoulders shook with sobs and she turned to Angus with a pleading look in her eyes.
She doesn't want to kneel and kowtow to Hattie.
She would rather kneel down and apologize to Selena than bow down to Hattie under any circumstances.
Angus looked to the side and whispered to her, "Miss Kaitlyn, you have to think, if your father sees this scene, he will think even more highly of your maturity...."
He will dislike Hattie even more.
But even with this reason, she did not want to kneel down and apologize to Hattie.
Anyone, but Hattie.
Kaitlyn was extremely sad, and her slender shoulders were trembling, but she was not willing to really kneel down to Hattie.
Angus looked into her heartbroken eyes and whispered, "Miss Kaitlyn, think about your mother."
Her mother said that if she didn't apologize to Hattie and Selena today and let them forgive her, she wouldn't want her.
At this moment, Kaitlyn truly understood the meaning behind her mother's words.
Fear and reluctance filled her eyes as she stared at Hattie, but in the end, she lacked the courage to defy her mother.
Kaitlyn slowly bent her knees and knelt down in front of Hattie.
She kneeled on the ground, bowing her head, and the crowd couldn't see her expression, they only heard her weeping and her hoarse voice saying, "I'm sorry..."
Hattie watched as Kaitlyn knelt before her, her slender shoulders trembling slightly as she bowed in submission.
She clenched her fist, and there was a glimmer of tears in her eyes for a moment. The eternal night of despair and pain in her heart suddenly seemed to be cracked open by a beam of light at this moment.
She can get it done!
As long as she is powerful enough, she can make her enemies who hurt her kneel in front of her and apologize.
She could then, avenge her mother.
Hattie glared at Kaitlyn with hatred in her eyes, and spoke slowly and emphatically, "I will never forgive you or your mother, father, or brother. You are all responsible for killing my mother, and I will never forgive you!"
Kaitlyn was just kneeling there, looking down.
In an instant, apart from the crying sound, there is no other sound to be heard around.
The onlookers watched the sisters who had once been divided by hatred and sighed with sympathy.
Some people empathize with Hattie, while others sympathize with Kaitlyn.
Adults create the karma, but it is the children who have to bear the consequences.
However, without exception, no one accused Hattie of going too far. It was simply her sad expression and pained eyes that made people feel sorry for her.
"The Riddle family is really too heartless. This child has just lost her mother and was driven out of the house. Isn't this tantamount to sending her to her death?"
"The most despicable man is the one who not only cheats, but also dotes on his illegitimate daughter while neglecting his biological daughter. It seems like he would rather his daughter die outside…"
"No matter how it is clarified, with this scandal, the Riddle family in the capital has completely fallen from grace…"
Kaitlyn tightly squeezed her palm.
There was a moment when she wanted to stand up against everything and tell everyone that it was Hattie who was heartless and caused her mother to miscarry, which was why she was kicked out.
