CHAPTER 780 SORRY, I HAVE OCD

Chapter 780 Sorry, I have OCD

"But trying to fly up to the branch like a phoenix is simply a delusion!"

Hattie was so angry that she wanted to pounce on her, but Selena grabbed Hattie's hand, looked down

at the pouting child's face, and smiled slightly, "Be good, don't be angry."

Hattie glared at Cindy viciously, "This woman's mouth is too foul, she deserves a beating!"

Selena patted the child's head and smiled helplessly, "Hattie, as a high and mighty lady, not everyone

is worth your attention. If she makes you unhappy, just ignore her. There's no need to waste your

energy on someone like her."

Cindy was provoked by the other party's condescending attitude, and was about to curse back, when

Selena suddenly looked up and glanced at her.

Selena was clearly smiling, but the coldness emanating from her eyes made Cindy suddenly shiver.

For an instant, there was a feeling of being crushed and broken by the other party's gaze, like being

stabbed and bleeding.

Selena's lips curled into a cold smile, "I dared to beat Diana half to death. Is it that difficult to punish

someone like you?"

Cindy's face suddenly turned pale.

Diana had a background in the police district, and among all the young ladies present, she was

probably the strongest. Selena not only crippled her hands, but also publicly beat her half to death and

sent her to jail... why wouldn't she dare to punish Cindy?

Immediately, when Cindy looked at Selena, there was more fear and dread in her eyes.

"Selena is right," Hattie snorted coldly, "Why should I lower myself to argue with a woman who has

nothing but a big mouth and no brains? When I go back, I will tell my brother and Osvaldo that she

bullied me, and they will teach her how to behave!"

Cindy's face turned even paler, "You-"

Selena looked at the child's petulant face and smiled, about to say something, when suddenly a gentle

voice came from beside her, "Hattie, Cindy didn't bully you. We all saw it. Lying is not a good habit. You

never used to lie. Why did you suddenly learn to be bad?"

Hattie heard this voice and her pretty face suddenly turned cold, glaring at Penelope with a face full of

hostility, "Shut up!"

Penelope walked over, not at all angry at Hattie's attitude, and kindly said with a smile, "Okay, I won't

say anything else. It's just that Grandma asked me to remind you to come back to the main mansion for

dinner tonight. It's a family banquet, and we should all gather and have a good time..."

Hattie was trembling with anger, wishing she could pounce on Penelope and tear her apart.

Through the doorway, Lady Lauren stood inside, watching the scene with a slight frown.

Leia stood behind her, full of anger. "That shameless woman!" she exclaimed, about to rush out and kill

Penelope. But Lady Lauren suddenly raised her hand and stopped her. "Let's watch first," she said.

Outside the door, Selena's gaze fell on Penelope's face. Seeing the expression on her face, Selena

gradually stopped smiling. Her eyes moved back and forth on Penelope, who was wearing a white coat

and had a cool and elegant demeanor. Then she looked down at Hattie. "Hattie, aren't you going to

introduce me to Selena?" Penelope asked.

Hattie's face turned pale, feeling a bit at a loss. "Selena, you don't have to pay attention to her. She...

she..."

Penelope looked at Selena's tight lips, and something flashed in her eyes. She smiled and extended

her hand to Selena in a frank manner. "Hello, I'm Hattie's sister, Penelope Riddle," she said.

Hearing her voice, Selena looked up at her and smiled faintly. "Sorry, I'm a bit of a germaphobe," she

said. This content © 2024 .

Penelope's smile froze slightly on her face.

Selena patted Hattie's shoulder reassuringly and asked calmly, "Isn't there only one Miss in the Riddle

family this generation, Hattie? Where did this Miss come from?"

Hattie lowered her head and almost couldn't look Selena in the eye. "She's not part of our Riddle

family! She's just a..."

"Isn't she a stand-in because she has no blood relationship with the Riddle family, but looks so much

like my mother?" Selena paused slightly and continued, "Right, Penelope?"

Penelope was first choked by Selena's remark about her being a germaphobe and then hit where it

hurt by the mention of her being a stand-in. She spoke up unwillingly, "Lady Selena, please mind your

words..."

"Am I wrong?" Selena raised her chin and fixed her gaze on Penelope. "Didn't you become a Miss in

the Riddle family because you looked like my mother?"

Compared to Penelope, who had always been coddled and spent all her time scheming, Selena, who

had been in a high position for many years and rarely smiled, was in a league of her own.

With her imposing aura, Penelope, who was about to justify herself, was instantly silenced.

After confirming her conjecture, Selena smiled and glanced at the angry-eyed Penelope. "It seems that

the Riddle family's old folks really have poor judgment to let such a woman replace my mother. It's

simply an insult to her."

Selena's words were a genuine judgment without any deliberate intention to belittle.

Lady Nevaeh, with her pride, passion, and frankness, could not compare to Penelope, who appeared to

be cunning and calculating.

However, when these words fell into Penelope's ears, it was like a lethal blow that almost shattered her

friendly smile.

It turned out that she came here today to give Selena a warning, but she did not expect this woman's

mouth to be so venomous!

"Lady Selena, you're mistaken," Penelope smiled gently. "At first, perhaps my grandparents accepted

me as their granddaughter because I resembled Lady Nevaeh, but after so many years of living with

them, I have become a member of the Riddle family. My grandparents love and cherish me almost

more than Hattie, not to mention someone like you..."

She glanced at Selena, seeming reluctant, but still raised her chin and said, "A granddaughter who has

never met, how can you compare?"

Hattie was in rage, pushed Penelope away, and shouted, "Shut up! You evil woman! I'll tell my brother

to kick you out as soon as I get back!"

Penelope was caught off guard and took a step back from the shove. With the support of the other

women, she barely regained her balance. She looked at Hattie, frowned, and said, "Hattie, we grew up

together. I cared for you and accompanied you when you were young. You called me your sister for

more than ten years, and our original feelings were so profound..."

She looked up at Selena, her eyes showing some reproach. "Lady Selena, I know you are dissatisfied

and resentful towards my grandparents and have hostility towards me, but please be straightforward

and don't use your methods to corrupt a child's mind..."
