When the netizens under the Gurney family began to retaliate again, the suspicion that the police had been bribed by the Clark family was spread on the Internet vehemently.
Azalea anxiously browsed the news on her phone because the matter was getting even more intense than before.
What was going on? Why didn’t Michael reveal that she was Francis’ illegitimate daughter? What was on his mind!?
Azalea was extremely anxious when she saw that Michael hadn’t made a move even though the situation had developed to this point. He probably didn’t consider revealing her identity to suppress the news after all.
Since Michael didn’t tell the media that she was Francis’ illegitimate daughter, she couldn’t possibly contact the media herself either.
She was even contemplating using a burner account to expose her relationship with Francis and attract some attention.
While Azalea was still in a dilemma, one of the Gurney family’s helpers pushed open the door and came in with a large bag in her hand. “Sir has sent someone to bring you food again. Miss Clark, do you want to eat them now?”
“What did he bring?” Azalea asked.
“There’re cream cakes, a bottle of yoghurt, some fruit, and fresh fruit juice.”
Azalea thought for a moment after that. “Give me the cream cake and juice.”
She then took the food from the helper and began to eat.
She felt a little dizzy after eating the cake and drinking the bottle of juice. “Ah, I feel so tired! Why am I so sleepy?”
“You should rest if you’re tired.” Azalea had already fallen asleep when the helper came over to help straighten her pillows.
The helper then left after seeing that Azalea had fallen asleep. After that, the bodyguards came in and packed up all the things on the coffee table and threw them into the trash can.
Meanwhile, Angel was relaxing on the reclining sofa in Gurmisran’s villa with a tablet in her hand. Madelyn sat opposite her and looked at her carefully. “Miss, what are you so fascinated with?”
“I’m seeing what your daughter has been up to! Azalea has caused a huge scene again. Hey, why don’t you tell me where she got the guts to challenge the Clark family? Her previous scandals are being spread around the Internet and everyone can see how much of a whore she is! She doesn’t care who she hooks up with at all.”
Angel said sarcastically and glanced at Madelyn. “Speaking of this, didn’t you sell your body in the past as well? What do you think of people in this profession? Don’t you find it disgusting to sleep with so many men? By the way, who is Azalea’s biological father? Is he really the driver of the Clark family?”
Madelyn blushed when she heard this. No matter how thick-skinned she was, she could not stand such humiliation. She would definitely scold anyone else who dared to insult her like this, but she couldn’t do anything towards her own daughter.
Madelyn’s heart was filled with bitterness, but she couldn’t scold Angel and she deliberately changed the topic instead. “Miss, are you hungry? I’ll make you some snacks.”
“No!” Angel stopped Madelyn in disgust. “There’s a big wound on your forehead and I lose my appetite every time I look at you. I’ve already asked Gurmisran to order take out from the best Western restaurant.”
“Is that so?” Madelyn felt a chill down her spine when Angel mentioned Gurmisran, and she just gave a curt answer before staying silent.
After Angel stared at the tablet for a while, she suddenly turned to Madelyn and asked, “Why doesn’t Azalea have any other scandals but her previous hook-ups?”
“Why are you asking about this?”
“Why else? I can’t stand that she slandered the Clark family. No matter what, Richard is my child’s father. How can I let that b*tch succeed? You’d better tell me all of her scandals so I can spread it out.”
Madelyn shook her head. “I don’t know, I’m not that close to her.”
“Isn’t it strange that you aren’t close to your daughter? But why are you so nice to me? Since you haven’t been a good mother to your daughter, you probably won’t be loyal to me either. I’d better be wary of you in the future.”
Angel didn’t hold back her words at all, which made Madelyn stand up because she couldn’t stand it anymore.
Angel knew that Madelyn was angry when she saw the latter leave. She sneered and said, “Just wait and see, your daughter is going to get into serious trouble! The police are already involved, and the video of your daughter pretending to be ill has gone viral on the Internet. Haha, some netizens are even saying that the police have been bribed by the Clark family. They’ll definitely go to jail!”
Madelyn hurried to the kitchen while Angel was still cursing in the living room, “Her life will definitely get destroyed!”
Madelyn stood in the kitchen and listened to Angel’s insults with mixed feelings. Just then, there were footsteps at the door when Gurmisran came back with a lot of food.
Angel stopped scolding and began to eat as soon as she saw Gurmisran. Then, he sat next to Angel and helped her peel the chestnuts and fruits. From Madelyn’s point of view, they were sitting so close to each other that Gurmisran looked like he was hugging Angel.
She couldn’t stand it anymore because Gurmisran was getting worse by the day. As Angel’s biological mother, she couldn’t let Gurmisran bully Angel like this and she had to find a way.
Madelyn was deep in thought when she heard Gurmisran talking to Angel in the living room. “Did you have an argument with Paisley?”
“Not really… She blamed me because she was beaten up by Evelyn. She even called me and questioned me! She didn’t believe me even after I tried to explain it to her, so I blocked her number.”
In reality, Paisley was the one who had blocked her. Angel felt humiliated by this, so she tried to turn the story around.
Gurmisran was not interested in this matter at all. “Is that so? I met Paisley’s helper when I bought the fruits. She was so upset when she saw me, and she asked me to tell you to take your living expenses yourself.”
“I forgot about it. Paisley is really a pretentious b*tch. Is she deliberately targeting me? Haha! Then I’ll just go and take it.” Naturally, Angel wouldn’t personally take her living expenses. Now that Paisley hated her so much, she would definitely find a way to deal with her. Of course, Angel didn’t want to hand herself over to Paisley on a silver platter.
She immediately raised her voice and called Madelyn. “Get my living expenses from Paisley.”
Madelyn immediately went to Paisley’s apartment after that. She found that the door was unlocked just as she was about to press the doorbell, and she heard a voice coming from inside.
“Miss, will that b*tch actually come and get her living expenses?”
“No, how dare she come over? She would definitely ask Madelyn to come on her behalf.”
“Madelyn is really ridiculous, and she must be insane to take such good care of Angel. She isn’t treated well by Angel at all, and she is either getting scolded or beaten. I don’t know how she can bear being treated like a slave.” Danya’s voice was full of contempt.
Paisley sneered. “Why else do you think Madelyn is taking care of Angel? She probably thinks of Angel as her daughter.”
Paisley’s words made Madelyn halt for a moment. Did Paisley know that Angel was her daughter? How did even she find out about that?
