Chapter 214: 0214 I should have sent her along if I had known earlier_1

"What do you know?"

Naya York was getting impatient. "Do you think I want this? Who am I doing this for? It’s all for you. Ever since I went on the program and you came back too, Lucy Wood has a sister, and so do I. How many people online compare us? I certainly don’t want you to be looked down upon compared to her. You are my sister, Naya York’s sister."

"But I don’t need to compare myself to her."

Nina York said, "You say that, but Lucy Wood’s sister grew up in the countryside; she’s not in a position to compare with us. Now I feel that by doing the same things as them, we’re just being petty, making people think we’re narrow-minded. She’s destined not to be in the same league as us, so why do you care about her?"

"I just can’t stand Lucy Wood!" Naya York clenched her teeth, "I have to make her leave the industry, even if it means she’s out for good. As long as she’s around, those haters outside will talk about my popularity being less than hers. In what way is she better than me? Her acting skills certainly aren’t better than mine, nor are her resources. Why should she?"

Seeing her sister so angry, Nina York could only sigh.

She had no idea when their feud would end.

"Why does she dare to expose this? Why?!"

The matter on the internet had blown up and become a trending topic. Not only did David Wood receive the message, but Olivia Johnson and her group did too.

Initially, the plan was to release the message and ignore Lucy Wood, letting her back down and apologize to come back home. There might have been a chance then, but who expected someone to actually release the incident from the past?

Although David Wood took emergency PR action and sent out a lawyer’s letter claiming defamation,

he had not expected such an arrogant reply.

[Defamation? I have a basketful of evidence here, sue me if you dare.]

His arrogance stemmed mainly from the fact that the incident from the past was indeed true. The Wood Family could sue, but during the process, if the other party casually provided evidence, it could put the Wood Family in a tough spot.

Now reporters were calling to inquire, and no matter what, the act of intentionally abandoning one’s biological daughter seemed really despicable.

Moreover, there was now this commotion about severing ties with the eldest daughter; the notion of preferring sons to daughters seemed even more credible.

In this day and age, showing gender bias, especially for the Wood Family, wasn’t this just asking for a slap in the face?

Even if it was true, it couldn’t be acknowledged.

The moment Olivia Johnson heard about it, she instantly thought it was Lucy Wood’s doing.

"Where did we go wrong with her, where exactly did we go wrong..."

At that moment she almost fainted with grief. Daniel Wood hugged her, his expression hesitant. "Boss, how did you learn about this?"

The demand for money at the time was done discreetly; Lucy Wood was working out of town, and seldom came back home. How could she know about this.

And...

Daniel Wood remembered his visit to Haran Village, Ellen Young had said it outright; she knew about the incident from back then.

This looked like it could only have been done by Ellen Young.

But where did Ellen Young find the channel to leak the information?

His father immediately got the PR team to suppress the matter and investigate the source, but to no avail. The forum that released the information wouldn’t agree to delete the post even for money, infuriating David Wood.

"How could she not know? She’s been holding onto this move all along!"

Olivia Johnson was heartbroken. "I really—had I known she was so ruthless, I should have... sent her away with the rest!"

Her weeping was full of sorrow and anger, yet it carried a chilling grittiness.
