Chapter 79
Leah trembled heavily, biting her lips, seemingly holding back, or weighing, after a long time, before
she squeezed out her voice with difficulty, “Selena, you know that the Riddle family’s matters are not
something I can decide.”
Selena snorted faintly.
Dominic sighed with sudden relief.
Those students, however, were stunned and looked at Leah with an flabbergasted expression.
The parent who spoke just now seemed determined to educate her daughter, and coldly pursued her
question, “Leah, it is true that the affairs of the Riddle family are not your decision to make, but this is
not contradictory to you taking a personal stand and giving up the succession of the Riddle family. You
are a grown-up now, as my daughter said, you are a talent, you can use your own talent to do justice to
your birthright, rather than muddling through at will.”
“There’s no shame being a mistress’ daughter, what’s really shameful is that it’s bad from your heart.” NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“If you don’t want to give up the Riddle family’s property, no one is in a position to blame you, after all,
everyone has their own choice, but I wish you would tell the truth instead of having this specious
attitude all the time and letting these children go on making mistakes again and again!”
Her tone had taken on a stern color by the end.
Leah trembled, seemingly stunned, and her face went white the next second.
Selena gave a faint laugh, “Leah, you always have to choose between fame and profit, you can’t have
both!”
Leah stood shakily in place, a pair of tearful eyes looking forlornly at Selena, seemingly pushed to the
limit, her expression somewhat desperate, her eyes holding a fierceness and threat that only Selena
could see, “Selena, must you force me like this?”
Selena looked at the screen of her mobile phone, twenty minutes had passed since Osvaldo called,
she didn’t have much
time to waste with Leah.
She put the phone away and smiled towards Leah, no temperature at all in her eyes, “Since you don’t
agree, there’s nothing
more to say.”
She turned her eyes to Dominic with more than a hint of asperity and sneer, “Dominic, you haven’t
answered my question!”
Dominic was abruptly stunned, suddenly remembering the question Selena had asked him earlier, only
to be interrupted by Leah’s sudden arrival, but unexpectedly it was brought up again by Selena at this
moment.
Selena smiled coldly, mockery showing in her eyes, “Leah said to the students in this class that you
were originally a couple and that I was the third party who ruined your relationship, Dominic, tell
everyone, is that really the truth?”
Dominic was horrified and raised his head to look at Leah, his eyes carrying a hint of complexity and
some disbelief.
Leah wiped her tears from her eyes, seemingly too sad to contain herself, her soft body trembling
lightly, her face full of fear and anxiety.
She glanced at Dominic, her gaze clearly mixed with some soft pleading, lowered her head again,
standing there, her hair scattered, which looked inexplicably forlorn and lonely.
Although Dominic did not know what was going on here, Leah’s appearance at this moment was
heartbreaking.
He had already aggravated her yesterday for the sake of Selena, she was injured, her reputation was
ruined, she had just been forced by Selena, and was publicly accused by others of being of bad
character. If he said wrong words, Leah, who was already exhausted, might not even be able to stay in
school.
Selena was already notorious anyway, and there was little point in clarifying this or not.
Dominic took a deep breath to ease the almost suffocating feeling in his heart, threw away the trace of
guilt in his heart and said in a deep voice, “I have long had a secret love affair with Leah, and if there
was no that marriage contract, I would not have been an unmarried couple with you at all.”
