Chapter 161: True Colors Revealed

Chapter 161: True Colors Revealed

Hannah gasped for breath, gripping Brianna’s hand tightly as she recalled Ella’s breathtakingly beautiful, mischievous eyes. She took a deep breath.

She couldn’t accept it!

She couldn’t accept that wretched woman destroying her mother like this, couldn’t accept that her mom was being defeated!

Revenge in the future would be nearly impossible!

"Mom, now what do we... what do we do?" Hannah’s face was ashen. "We can’t lose to that wretched girl! Mom, you have to be strong, you must refuse to admit anything! As long as you deny it, they won’t find any evidence!"

Hannah’s face twisted with fury as she grabbed Brianna, shouting sharply.

Brianna’s eyes were bloodshot as she forced a weak smile. "After this scandal... even if I deny it, it’ll be hard to clear my name! Your dad... that heartless man, he recorded the time I hit him last time, keeping it as evidence for court!"

Hannah’s eyes widened, her mind buzzing with shock!

"A divorce is fine, but Mom... you absolutely cannot admit to poisoning her!" Hannah said coldly.

If she didn’t admit it, Ella erwould have no leverage!

The mother and daughter sat together in silence, despair reflected in their eyes. But what made them feel even more hopeless was the appearance of another post on some of the hottest forums.

A post titled "My Marriage with Brianna Has Reached Its End: The Truth Behind the Divorce" had caught everyone’s attention, shocking netizens!

The poster, claiming to be Robert’s lawyer, detailed the reasons for Robert seeking a divorce.

The post claimed that Robert could no longer tolerate domestic abuse and, after receiving a call from Mrs. Jones accusing Brianna of being the one who poisoned and killed his late wife, he decided to divorce Brianna.

Not only did the post include a video of Brianna viciously attacking the mistress, Emily, causing her to miscarry, but it also showed her smashing a beer bottle over Robert’s head!

In the video, Brianna was a far cry from the elegant lady she once was.

She looked wild, with disheveled hair like a madwoman, her face twisted with rage, her voice hoarse and shrill, utterly vicious—a sight too unbearable to watch!

After seeing the video, the netizens’ sympathy was immediately stirred. They quickly overlooked Robert’s infidelity and focused on the fact that he had been a victim of domestic violence.

Most people believed that it was Brianna’s cruelty that drove Robert to cheat.

These two posts only made Brianna’s situation worse, making it impossible for her to clear her name!

Robert’s actions managed to minimize the damage to Davis Group, as everyone sympathized with Robert, who was shown covered in blood, rather than with Brianna, who had been betrayed!

"The Most Poisonous Woman in High Society" became Brianna’s new nickname, topping Twitter’s trending list!

As Brianna read those posts, her heart pounded with pain, her fists clenched tightly. Hannah desperately tried to comfort her, "Mom, don’t be angry, don’t look at those posts! He’s not worth it... Mom, you have to take care of yourself, please, I have no one else to rely on but you!"

Brianna’s face turned deathly pale, cold sweat dripping from her forehead as her teeth chattered.

At that moment, a storm of anger, pain, and resentment swirled inside her chest, swelling to the point where it felt like it would burst out of her body!

After all these years of marriage, the moment her scandal broke, instead of calling to help her escape or comfort her, he had kicked her when she was down, practically wishing for the netizens to curse her to death!

Although Brianna had been a housewife for more than a decade, raising two children was exhausting, even with the help of a nanny. Whenever one of the kids got sick, she stayed up all night to take care of them because she didn’t trust anyone else to do it.

For over ten years, she endured relentless hardship, surviving the scorn of society, carrying the degrading label of a mistress, all while keeping Robert’s home spotless so he could focus on his career without any worries.

And what did he do in return? Not only did he have affairs and demand a divorce, but now he’s also blaming everything on her!

Overnight, she had become the wicked woman reviled by millions!

Meanwhile, Robert had garnered endless sympathy, leaving Brianna seething with anger, unable to stay calm.

"That bastard Robert! I’ve loved him for over ten years, sacrificed my youth for him... and this is how he repays me! He not only wants to leave me with nothing but also wants to ruin me completely!" Brianna screamed, her eyes filled with a destructive madness as she slammed her hand down on the teacup on the coffee table.

The small teacup shattered under her palm, and shards of porcelain embedded themselves in her delicate fingers, sending waves of pain through her body.

"Mom, calm down! Please, calm down! Don’t do this..."

But Brianna couldn’t calm down. She rampaged through the living room, smashing the TV screen with a vase, leaving the floor covered in debris.

Hannah, after trying to calm her down, backed away in fear, terrified that she might get hit by something. She could only cry and retreat to a corner, frantically calling for help.

"Brandon, I think Mom’s losing it! She’s breaking everything, Brandon, please come quickly, please..."

On the other end of the line, Brandon responded softly, "I’m busy right now, I’m sorry..."

Without another word, Brandon hung up.

Hannah was left stunned, bewildered by Brandon’s cold tone. Why didn’t he call her "baby" like he usually did?

Brianna continued her rampage, grabbing a bowl from the kitchen and hurling it at a trembling servant. "You wretch, how dare you betray me! I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you..."

The terrified servant fled the villa, not daring to stay another moment.

Brianna was truly losing her mind, destroying everything in the kitchen and all the rooms, cutting and tearing until, finally, she collapsed, exhausted, onto the floor covered in shredded clothes.

"Mom, what’s wrong? Please, don’t scare me like this! I can’t live without you!" Hannah cried out, clutching Brianna’s lifeless body, feeling completely helpless for the first time in her life.

Her anguished sobs echoed through the villa, but no one came to comfort her, no one cared.

Hannah was filled with regret. Back in school, she had been arrogant and proud, never forming any genuine friendships. Though Lily used to flatter her, after that incident, Lily began to hate her deeply.

Her other classmates either distanced themselves or were never close to begin with. She had no one to turn to! It was all her fault for being so haughty; even though she appeared friendly on the surface, deep down, she looked down on everyone.

People aren’t fools—they could sense Hannah’s arrogance. So, when her scandal broke, no one wanted to be near her.

"Mom! Don’t leave me, I’m so scared..."

Like a child, Hannah clung to Brianna, forgetting all the schemes she and her mother had concocted against the lonely Ella, forgetting all the venom she harbored, believing that she was the one most deeply hurt.
