Under Selena's cold gaze, Leah forced herself to suppress her nervousness. Her words were half-truths.
Isabel told her that Selena didn't even know the value of the red jade, much less the connection between her and Christ during their childhood.
This was their chance.
Whether Selena believed it or not was secondary. As long as Leah could get her to attend the press conference in three days, she would have succeeded.
But as soon as Leah had this thought, she heard Selena let out a cold laugh. "Leah, do you think that I will always be forced to accept your challenges and never take the initiative to punish you?"
Leah's face changed slightly.
She had caused Selena so much trouble, and every time Selena retaliated, she had never taken the initiative to go after her.
This had almost formed a kind of fixed mindset for Leah, that Selena would never actively harm her. But now Selena had asked this question. Did it mean...?
Leah's face turned pale, and she inexplicably broke out in a cold sweat.
Selena smiled and asked, "After Mrs. Riddle went to prison, I visited her once..."
As Leah watched her warily, Selena curved her beautiful red lips. "Aren't you curious about how I got revenge on your mother?"
Leah glared at her in anger. "Selena, no matter what, my mother raised you, and that's a fact! Aren't you afraid of divine retribution for what you've done?"
Selena seemed to have heard a joke and burst out laughing. "You're wrong. I was raised with the money my mother left me. I have nothing to do with your mother, except for the hatred. But you, Leah, your mother loves you so much, she protected and defended you even to the point of going to prison for you. But you didn't even go to see her once..."
"As for who's more heartless, who can compare to you, Leah? If there is retribution, then you should be the one to receive it!"
Leah's eyes revealed a fierce resentment. The most important thing to her in her life was her identity as a rich young lady. She couldn't tolerate having a mother in prison, which was a blemish to her.
In addition, Mr. Walson had repeatedly emphasized that if she still acknowledged Mrs. Riddle, then she was not qualified to enter the Walson family.
So Leah heartlessly never went to visit Mrs. Riddle even once.
She sneered and said slowly, "Selena, no matter what, my mother was once your stepmother, and that alone means that your revenge is wrong!"
Selena's eyes turned cold and she sneered.
Upon hearing Selena's laughter, Leah realized something was wrong and tried to get up to escape, but it was too late.
A cup of hot milk tea was splashed all over her face.
Leah screamed, "Selena!"
"Why aren't you crying this time?" Selena tilted her head and lightly laughed, "I splashed you, not because you secretly pricked me with a needle or plotted against me... I saw that you didn't look pleasing to my eyes, so I splashed you. Why aren't you crying now?"
Leah's face twisted in anger. She struggled to wipe off the milk tea from her face with a tissue, but her clothes were ruined.
She was trembling with anger.
Selena dropped the empty milk tea cup in her hand, clapped her hands, stood up, and her eyes turned cold and icy. "Leah, you better make sure you didn't deceive me about the red jade issue. Believe me, you can't bear the consequences of deceiving me!"
After speaking, she walked out.
As Selena passed by Leah, Leah reached out and grabbed her arm. "Selena!"
Selena pushed her hand away with disgust and a bit of force. Leah stumbled back several steps, and her delicate body almost fell to the ground.
Her face turned pale, and she exclaimed, "I'm pregnant... how could you be so heartless to me?"
One sentence attracted everyone's attention in the milk tea shop.
Selena's dark eyes looked at her with a meaningful gaze, smiling but not really. "Believe me, if you weren't pregnant, I would have kicked you directly onto the street outside!"

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...
