As Sylvester began to speak, the surroundings immediately quieted down, and everyone's gaze fell solely on him.
To divert their attention and prevent them from focusing on Karina and affecting her life, Sylvester had no choice but to ruthlessly push Rainie into the spotlight.
I didn't want to put the woman in an awkward situation, but things had already escalated to this point. Furthermore, the innocent Karina is now involved and has to bear all the responsibility.
"Karina did not ruin the relationship between Rainie and me. The reason we ended up like this is entirely due to Rainie's lack of self-control, mingling with my cousin. When I initially brought Rainie back to the Hollett family, Karina, in order not to put me in a difficult position, even specifically told her relatives and friends that she was stepping back from the relationship. She is knowledgeable and understanding, adept at reading people's emotions. She doesn't deserve these criticisms. You should stop relentlessly pursuing her; she is not the one you should be focusing on. To my knowledge, after the scandal broke out last night, Rainie left the Shurmer family to avoid causing them trouble. If you're looking to stir things up, you should go after her. She's the one involved."
After hearing his strong and resolute words, Karina, who was held in Sylvester's arms, could no longer hide the pride in her heart and slowly began to smile.
In order to divert these reporters' attention away from me, he didn't hesitate to throw Rainie under the bus. Just because of this, it's impossible for him and Rainie to reconcile.
Now that Rainie has left the Shurmer family, she will be treated like a rat crossing the street, with everyone wanting to hit her. Even if she isn't deliberately made to suffer, her life will be as good as over.
Sylvester's words indeed pushed Rainie into an abyss.
Everyone knew that Rainie had left the Shurmer family, so she would have nowhere to hide once she appeared in public.
After watching the news, Bailey was so furious that she smashed her phone in anger.
She felt defiant. Even if it was confirmed that the child in Rainie's womb was Sylvester's, she had no intention of letting that jerk have his way.
What's there to hold onto in a man who can humiliate Rainie anytime, anywhere, and put her in danger?
Since he had personally sent her to her grave, he should live out his days alone in regret.
He doesn't deserve a happy ending.
Just as Bailey was about to throw her phone, smash her computer, and was preparing to hurl a vase, Waverly hurriedly walked in.
"Bay, I've found out news about Ms. Yeanisky. She's gone to the countryside. She's safe for now. Do you want me to send someone to bring her back?"
With a mysterious expression, Bailey lowered her head to look at the shattered phone on the ground, which was still emitting a faint glow.
Hallsbay has already become the center of public opinion storm, and Rainie's return won't be treated kindly.
How should she handle herself in the face of these overwhelming criticisms?
Rather than letting her return to endure all this, it would be better to let her stay in the countryside and enjoy some peaceful days.
Currently, she is not far enough along in her pregnancy to undergo amniocentesis for paternity testing.
I'll wait a month before visiting her again, help her understand the truth, and restore her innocence. That's the right way to go.
"No need, just assign a few people to protect her. Don't let her get hurt. Although the internet in the countryside is backward, it's not completely blocked. Rainie is a renowned actress and a household name. When she visits the countryside, it's inevitable that she encounters some blabbermouths and hears some foul stuff. Mom, just send some professionals to guard her, thoroughly clean up her surroundings as much as possible, and shield her from any gossip or rumors."
"All right. I'll go and arrange it now. Alas, that young man from the Hollett family is really out of line. I think he's been bewitched by a vixen. If he had even a tenth or a twentieth of Artemis' qualities, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation. He deserves not to be able to find a wife in the future."
Bailey really wanted to say, "Artemis is not such a good guy either," but the words got stuck in her throat before she could utter them.
Fine, Artemis is slightly better than Sylvester.
