While Selena was sleeping, the Riddle family was in chaos. Penelope was in prison, Kaitlyn and Ache were both injured and ill, hospitalized, and even Daphne's beloved grandson had been harmed. She not only hated Selena's heartlessness, but also felt a chill down her spine.
Especially that night, the situation at the Riddle Corporation not only did not improve, but the losses became more severe. Daphne, who was lying in bed unable to sleep, felt a stabbing pain in her heart when she heard Hunter say that Ache's condition had worsened and he almost couldn't be saved. She immediately sat up and called a bunch of people, and early in the morning, she led them to the small villa where Selena lived.
When the major families who were observing the situation heard this news, their spirits were shaken. The wealthy wives and daughters who liked to watch the drama quickly put on their makeup and rushed over in their cars. After all, whether it was the famous and noble Riddle family or the loyal Turner family, who among them was not high and mighty in their daily lives? The chance to see these two families become a joke was too rare, and naturally, no one wanted to miss it!
When Leon received the news, he laughed so hard that he was almost angry. He was about to rush over to stop them, but suddenly remembered that Hattie was sleeping in the next room and stopped in his tracks. Perhaps it was because Daphne had been too smooth sailing for the past few decades that she couldn't even see the basic situation clearly until now. She actually thought she could threaten Selena with that little bit of blood relation. It was time for her to see reality!
Leon turned around and walked back. His assistant was shocked, "Young Master, you know Miss Selena's methods. The one who will ultimately suffer and feel disgraced is surely the old lady. You..."
If Daphne felt disgraced, it would mean that the entire Riddle family would feel disgraced! If he let this go, they would really become the laughingstock of the major families!
Leon's expression was cold, "Is the Riddle family lacking in things to be ashamed of?"
This was not a wise move to provoke Selena at this time. The assistant was speechless.
Regardless of anything else, just sending the true Miss of the Riddle family to juvenile detention for the sake of a mistress was enough to make the Riddle family a laughingstock among the major families! Now, they had created such an embarrassing drama...
How could Daphne be so foolish to let things come to this?
...
At this moment, outside the small villa, it had just become light. Daphne stood in the cold wind with a look of anger on her elderly face. Manny held her arm and softly advised, "Old lady, the wind is too strong. Your health is not good. Let's go back..."
Daphne snorted, with a fierce look on her face. "So Selena wants me to apologize to her in person? I'll apologize to her, as long as she can handle my manners!"
The wealthy ladies who were watching the show nearby, not afraid of causing trouble, heard Daphne's words and added fuel to the fire with laughter.
"Madam, please don't say that. Even if Miss Turner speaks out, she still has to call you grandmother. How can a grandmother apologize to her granddaughter?"
"Mrs. He is right. If Miss Turner really dares to do this, it would be outrageous!"
"In fact, Miss Turner is at fault in this matter. Madam, you only scolded her a little, but she dared to be willful and even attacked her own siblings, you, and the the Riddle's company. She is really ruthless..."
Daphne was struck in the most painful part of her heart, staring at the black iron gate of the villa, and a few black airs surged in her eyes.
Almost everyone thought that if Daphne personally apologized, Selena, in order to preserve her reputation, would greet her with anger and panic. However, in fact, they had been waiting for ten minutes in the freezing cold wind, but there was still no movement from the iron gate on the other side.
Could they not have heard?

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...
