The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2451

Chapter 2451 

Tessa had been walking down this road for what felt like an eternity, never seeming to find its end. 

“If only I’d had a son,” she thought, once again allowing this notion to squash the guilt she felt towards Ivy. 

Meanwhile, Leo and his team hadn’t anticipated that Seren would have the audacity to brazenly provoke the Merrick family’s darling daughter. As if that wasn’t enough, Seren was fanning the flames by slandering Ivy. 

They had already sent a legal warning letter. 

“This person must have a screw loose,” Leo shook his head, unable to fathom what Seren was playing at. “Otherwise, isn’t this just a death wish?” 

At first, he could make sense of the lies Seren spread online. Some crave attention so desperately that, when they find it on the internet, their ego inflates uncontrollably, leading them to weave an intricate web of deceit. 

Seren was a textbook case, especially after she was fired six months ago. Initially, she vented her misfortunes and frustrations online with reckless abandon. But after claiming to have witnessed something involving Ivy, Seren didn’t expect to gain a following eager to lap up her tales of the entertainment world. 

She felt seen. It seemed Seren had discovered her calling. 

But her subsequent actions, devoid of any scruples, were indefensible. 

Mara did get Seren a lawyer, but it was a half-hearted effort at best. She only allocated a mere grand for legal aid. Considering Seren’s greed, it seemed fair enough. If Seren were truly concerned, she could’ve spent those tens of thousands on a decent defense attorney. 

But Seren was blind to that. She clung to her cash, dreaming of returning to her small-town life once the dust settled, oblivious to the price she’d have to pay for her online fabrications. 

If Seren didn’t care about her fate, why should Mara? 

To some, money indeed trumps freedom. 

Mara respected Seren’s choice. 

“Alright, the evidence is all gathered. It’s time for Seren to witness the full force of the law.” Just as predicted, Seren’s two-day disappearance from the online world had sent shock waves through the netizens, who were appalled by the audacity of the wealthy.

Could the wealthy truly be so audacious, flaunting their actions despite everyone knowing the truth? Did they think netizens were fools? 

Unbeknownst to the netizens, Seren’s absence was due to her frantic scramble to deal with the lawsuits from Ivy and Eudora. She was indeed busy.
