Chapter 206: Chapter 206: The Doctor Said I Will Become a Cripple
Just like Brandon Piers, the netizens who received the lawyer’s letter were also irritable.
Brandon’s thunderous methods allowed everyone to see his determination to protect his wife. No one dared to say a single bad word about Abigail anymore.
But those who received the lawyer’s letters were already the most resentful and irritable. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have come out to attack Abigail verbally without knowing the full situation.
Now facing lawsuits, their resentment grew even more, but they didn’t dare confront the Piers. Naturally, they turned their focus on others.
Mona Wilde, Clark Stone, and Ruby Green became live targets.
Especially Ruby, the higher she had been praised, the harder she fell.
When Mona had Monica livestream, people still held reservations about Abigail being a home-wrecker. It was Ruby’s confirmation that made everyone believe Mona was the victim.
Abigail became the vicious fat woman who forced couples to break up.
Now Mona was taken by the police, investigating the cause of a fan’s incident. Clark Stone was scolded like a dog after the scumbag theory came out early.
Only Ruby, wearing a white wedding dress during the livestream and contrasted by Abigail, appeared exceptionally ethereal and beautiful. Coupled with her seeming selflessness for a friend and impartiality, she was still loved by netizens. They sympathized with her kindness, purity, and gullibility, even though the stamp incident was slapped in the face.
Afterwards, the news of her engagement to Second Young Master Piers reinforced her persona of beauty and kindness, and indirectly proved her excellence, making netizens feel unworthy.
Humans have a curious mindset. They often disdain those inferior to them, scorn those slightly above them, but elevate untouchable individuals to a pedestal.
However, these same people are often the ones to pull those on the pedestal down with their own hands.
Ruby’s mishap at the wedding and her publicly rebuked Tweets by Brandon were everywhere. The once endearing “Ruby Fairy” was now called a “bitch.”
Ruby looked at the malicious curse words under her Twitter post and swept everything off the table. The servant delivering the meal didn’t have time to dodge and got splashed with the hot soup. Her exposed skin rapidly turned red, and she shrank back in fear.
Rose Taylor glared at the servant, “Why aren’t you cleaning up?”
“Yes, ma’am.” The servant endured the burn and cleaned the leftover food and shards in the ward.
But Ruby was still not satisfied and threw a cup at her, “Get out, get out!”
“Ah, miss…” The servant, caught off guard, got hit and hurriedly gathered the trash and covered her bleeding forehead before fleeing the ward.
Rose stepped forward and held Ruby’s hand, “Be good, Ruby. Your dad is coming soon. It won’t look good if he sees this.”
“My dad? You mean that pushover Lincoln Green? He’s not my dad. My real dad is long dead!” Ruby snarled resentfully. She had lost face at the engagement party, and Lincoln didn’t even stand up for her. How dare he still want to be her dad?
“Shh!” Rose hurriedly covered Ruby’s mouth. Now that their path with the Piers was severed, they still had to rely on Lincoln, no matter how useless he was.
“Mom, am I wrong? We were so humiliated at the engagement party, yet he sat there, even having the Piers’ banquet before returning!” Ruby pressed on.
Rose held her hand. She was just as angry, but now was not the time.
“Mom, how can I calm down? The doctor said I’ll become a cripple, a cripple!! Ah ah…”
