Chapter 233
After a good while, Charmine answered, “When she wakes up, she must live-stream an apology in front of all her followers and media. She has to admit her wrongdoings and apologize to me.”
Tiffany had been hiding away in the hospital as she pretended to be ill, lying on the hospital bed. She had no intention to get involved with the discussions. Did she truly think that after everything she had done, she could stay silent and let time wipe off the memory from everyone’s minds? Hmph, not a chance!
Joey hesitated at Charmine’s condition; Tiffany had not been in her best state recently. What if Tiffany fainted again seeing negative online criticisms aimed at her, just as she was getting better? She had such a fragile attitude. How could she apologize in public knowing that she would be criticized for it? Furthermore, sleeping with a brother-in-law was a very shameful act, and nobody would want to speak of it.
Joey could not help asking, “Is there no other option? This condition seems…”
“Mom, are you still protecting her? Has she ever apologized to anyone after making a mistake? How am I supposed to help her if she doesn’t apologize? Would you hesitate if it was me who seduced her husband and planned to steal her assets?” Charmine refuted.
Joey felt a pang of guilt at that moment. If it was Charmine, she would not be hesitant at all. Charmine was a mere adopted child. When she made the mistake five years ago, the entire family kicked her out right away. Joey was having second thoughts; Charmine did grow up under them despite being an adopted daughter…
Charmine continued, “I’m aware that I was adopted, and that’s why I’ve never asked for anything, but she ruined my wedding and planned to steal my assets. I ain’t a saintess; all I need is an apology. Furthermore, she’d only be able to learn her mistake if she admits her mistake, don’t you think?”
Joey eventually relented, caving in. “Alright, I’ll talk to her and ask her to apologize. Do speak a good few words about her.”
Charmine’s lips curled up into a smirk as she hung up. She knew Tiffany better than anyone. Tiffany could fake her pitiable look and ask for pity, but it would be one of those fake and sympathetic kinds of sobbing and crying. Asking her to admit her mistake was equivalent to asking her to take on the responsibility for the mistake, and that would ruin her façade. Tiffany would be in agony!
Still, what was that agony when compared to Charmine’s pain of being raped and giving birth t o a dead baby five years ago, chased away to Africa only to slowly die? What agony was there in comparison? Also, if Charmine remained stupid like herself five years ago, they would have killed her and rob her assets.
