Chapter 547 Betray Her After Accepting the Money!
The ones who were the most affected by his speech were the single ladies who had dressed up extravagantly.
“I must be hallucinating. Otherwise, what could explain Kenneth saying that Elise was someone he admired but couldn’t have?”
“Please hold me up. Thank you. I’m a little dizzy!”
“My Kenneth’s heart belongs to someone already? And she’s a country bumpkin? It turns out that he likes this kind. Is it too late if I go to the countryside and get a makeover now?”
“When did Kenneth go blind?”
Kenneth didn’t pay any attention to their conversations, but quietly shot the shop assistant a look.
The shop assistant immediately understood and nodded. She stepped out from behind Danny, opened her bag, and took out a pile of documents.
“This is Ms. Celina’s shopping history, the invoice, and her autographed copy of the credit card receipt. The original copies are stored in the store. Our manager said that you can go to the store at any time to verify it. If necessary, we can also provide the surveillance footage of the store as evidence to help Mr. Saunders ease his concerns.”
After the shop assistant finished speaking, she walked up to the platform and handed the documents to David in front of everyone.
Grinding his teeth, David accepted the documents. When he saw Celina’s familiar signature, a touch of disappointment flashed across his eyes.
The daughter whom he treated like a precious pearl, who was held in the palms of his hands for fear that she would suffer, actually wanted to kill him.
Then, David thought of his dead wife. As he thought of her lying in someone else’s bed making fun of his foolishness and ignorance, he angrily crumpled the paper in his hands into a ball.
Upstairs, Celina quietly hid behind a pillar and observed the situation downstairs.
Upon seeing this, she hurriedly lifted her hand to cover her mouth.
She had spent a lot of money to keep that shop assistant’s mouth shut so that she wouldn’t divulge this matter. Why is she here now?! That b*tch actually betrayed me after accepting the money!
At the same time, after the shop assistant handed the documents over to David, she walked down the stairs, but she didn’t go to Danny. Instead, she hid behind Kenneth, and her lips seemed to be moving.
Celina immediately realized that she was reporting to Kenneth.
She was here under Kenneth’s orders!
Elise actually asked Kenneth for help!
This b*tch. She already has a fiancé, but she’s greedy and wants to seduce Kenneth too!
Celina’s eyes erupted into flames of jealousy, and her gaze was fixed precisely on Elise.
It was her. All of this was arranged by Elise.
From Faye to Edwin, all of them were part of Elise’s plan.
From the very beginning, Elise had shown up just to ruin her life!
This b*tch. She made me look like a promiscuous person just to make herself seem noble in Kenneth’s heart. She wants to look good and get all the praise? I won’t let her get what she wants!
At this point, Celina couldn’t restrain herself anymore. She rushed down the steps and stopped behind David, then took off her high heels and held them in her hand.
“Elise!” Celina yelled before throwing her high heels at Elise’s face.
Elise was standing there watching everything unfold. When she was attacked, she could dodge it by simply craning her neck to the side.
An idiot would remain an idiot. She wanted to attack, but she shouted her name and alerted her. Who wouldn’t know to duck?
However, just before Elise dodged the shoe, a figure suddenly came from the side, blocking her line of sight.
The moment Elise saw Kenneth’s face, she also heard the muffled ‘snap’ of the high heels hitting something.
Celina had hit Kenneth on the back of the head.
“Oh, my God!”
“Oh, my God! Celina actually dared to attack Kenneth! What a bold woman!”
“Sh*t. Is this something we can watch for free? Kenneth was actually attacked!”
“This is a big deal! I’m afraid the Saunders Family is done for!”
When Elise was being accused earlier, these people were only spectators watching a live show.
Among them, there were business partners, relatives, and friends of the Saunders Family. Now that Kenneth was involved, they couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.
Offending Kenneth and provoking Smith Co. was tantamount to being issued an automatic disappearance card. They never knew when Smith Co. would silently cause their careers, or even their entire family, to disappear completely.
Those who had been working hard to be part of the high society hurriedly tried to clarify their relationship for fear of getting into trouble.
“Celina, you’ve done something wrong, yet you don’t know how to repent. Instead, you deliberately hurt others. It seems that we have to place justice above family relations and let the police deal with it!”
“That’s right. You seem to have a tendency to cast accusations despite being the bad guy, and even Mr. Bailey wasn’t spared. After this, Miss Saunders, you might take it out on us!”
“The Saunders Family sure has a way of raising their children! They actually raised such a daughter!”
“Mr. Bailey, don’t worry. The police are coming. We’ll definitely stand by your side and testify for you!”
It was a no-brainer whether the Saunders Family or Kenneth was the one they couldn’t offend.
Kenneth didn’t feel any pain, but it was a good excuse to make a scene, so of course he couldn’t let it go to waste.
With a cold expression, he slowly turned and fixed David with an aggressive look, waiting for him to explain.
David didn’t need Kenneth to urge him. The moment he saw Kenneth rush over, he knew it was over for him.
Seeing the cannibalistic look in Kenneth’s eyes, David didn’t even think twice before he turned and slapped Celina across the face, causing her head to turn completely.
“You unfilial girl! You’re a beast! Who said you can show up here!”
No matter how ignorant Celina was, she was his only daughter. As long as she didn’t show up, there would always be a way to solve the father and daughter’s affairs.
But now, she ran out and attacked Kenneth. If he didn’t teach her a lesson immediately, it would only bring the entire Saunders Family trouble.
Celina covered her face in pain and turned to look at David in disbelief.
Even when that incident with Edwin happened, David didn’t hit her. Now, he actually took action against her for Elise!
It was one thing for Kenneth to protect Elise, but David was her father. Why is everyone standing on Elise’s side?
Celina was dissatisfied, and tears slid down her cheeks. She bit her lips so hard that she could almost smell the metallic scent of blood.
When David saw this, his heart ached, but he couldn’t be soft-hearted.
He turned away and pretended to be tough. “One of you, bring the young miss back to her room and lock her up. She can’t take another step outside without my orders!”
“Dad!” Celina pleaded in dismay.
“One more word, and I’ll send you back to your hometown in the countryside!” David warned sharply.
Celina dare not talk back anymore, and she collapsed onto the stairs with a thud.
The servants hurriedly walked over and carried her away.
