Chapter two
Noah waved his big hand and ordered, call the family doctor over to check what’s in the coffee.
He knew that his two daughter had never gotten along. Octavia that daughter if his first wife, was the spoiled one while Selene the daughter of his second wife, was more tolerant. only with solid evidence can they resolve this conflict.
The family doctor soon arrived with professional tools and began examine the cup.
Selene give me your phone, Noah added.
Octavia knocked it to the ground! I haven’t touched it until now, Selene cried pitifully.
Noah picked up the the phone from the ground and opened the call log. It showed that a call had been made around ten minute ago, and the time matched what octavia Had claimed.
Octavia took a sideway glance at the call log. She wanted to see how Selene could deny it with this solid evidence.
Noah dialed the unknown number that the number had been made to. Soon. An automated voice said, press 1 for balance inquire. And press 2 for payment.
Octavia Pretty face frown. How could this be? Just now Selene had called someone right in front of her eyes and some bodyguard to come over and r**e her, but she had snatched the phone away before Selene could finished her words. Therefore it was impossible for her call log to be tempered with.
However, the call log clearly proved that the last call had been made to the telecommunication company.
Everyone looked at octavia with suspicion and disappointment.
Selene cried bitterly, as if she had suffered a great grievance.
Octavia clenched her fist tightly. How could it be? Something didn’t add up.
Fortunately the doctor could be trusted, so she turned to him and asked, doctor what did you find.
Miss there is nothing strange in coffee, the doctor reply softly.
But it tested strange when I ate it. And Selene admitted it that she had drugged it…. Back then, Selene had spoken in such a cold tone that the memory was clearly etched in octavia memory.
There really nothing strange in it madam the doctor emphasized again.
Octavia told you, I’ve never wanted to hurt
You. Selene still looked aggrieved, immediately gaining the sympathy from everyone who saw her.
Dean also looked at her gently and comfort her.
Compare to octavia, who was willful Selene looked pitiful.
Finally an idea flashed through octavia mind.
She suddenly understood everything! From the beginning, there had been no drug in the coffee, Selene had pretended to make that phone call. She had orchestrated the whole situation to trick octavia of accusing her, so that when the truth is revealed, octavia would be unable to defend herself, and would lose everyone’s trust.
Turning around to look at her father, octavia explained anxiously, dad I know what going on. Selene did all this on purpose to …..
Before she could finish, Noah slapped her across her face.
Everyone was slightly shocked by the slap.
The atmosphere turned awkward and uncomfortable.
Selene, who was standing behind Noah,
Raised her chin and smiled triumphantly at octavia.
However octavia was not in the mood to look at Selene. She covered her burning cheek and looked at her father in disbelief.
Octavia looked at her father, who had always been nice to her and had never hurt her.
Noah face turned livid with anger. Octavia I know that you had always have a grudge against Selene. But I never expected that you’d come up with such a vicious plan to frame her and destroy her image in my heart. It all my fault. I’m the one who always coddled you and let you become this vicious.
He had lost all trust on octavia. Covering her burning cheek, octavia looked at Dean. Hoping that at least he would believe her.after all he is her groom.
Dean…. Before she could finish her words.
She was interrupted by Dean.
His gentle face was serious at the moment, and his mellow eyes had turned cold, he said in a heavy and indifferent tone. Octavia, you really disappointed me.
He looked at octavia ruthlessly, as if he was looking at a stranger. But when turned to Selene, his eyes were filled intense sympathy and pity.
Octavia was shocked by his words, although she was angry. She couldn’t help but find the situation ridiculous, she suddenly laughed out loud. How had she become the target of public criticism today on her wedding day.
She had never care much about Sarah and Selene before. In her eyes, Sarah was a home wrecker, so naturally she had hated the mother and daughter and everyone know it.
Nevertheless she had always it was beneath her to set them up.
But today, these two women had not only set her up, but they had also gain sympathy from Noah and Dean.
She didn’t care about the scheming mind of both the mother and the daughter, but what broke her heart the most was the mistrust of her father and fiancé.
From the beginning, they had let their feelings cloud their judgement. They had labeled her as the troublemaker in their heart. They wanted evidence just to help them confirm their doubts.
Octavia had always thought that she was the real daughter of the head of the Grimm family, and that one day she would become part of the Ambrose family as Dean wife,But now she realized how ridiculous it all was.
No one believed or care about her at all.
Octavia finally stop laughing, Dean you disappointed me, she said plainly with a snort.
She picked up the scissors on the table and cut the helm of her wedding dress. Then suddenly tore up the dress and threw it on the table.
Dean face turn livid in anger,” what are you during octavia.
This is exactly what you want isn’t it? Octavia clear blue eyes were don and watery she replied indifferently and looked away.
She walked back to her room with heavy steps. Then took her suitcase and went downstairs.
Sir miss octavia wants to leave home……a maid rushed over to Noah and reported the news.
Don’t mind her” Noah was really angry. He thought he should teach his daughter a lesson!
However Dean eyes turned anxious. Just when he turned to chase after octavia. Selene let out a moan and fainted.
What wrong with you Selene, don’t scare me, Sarah cried out loud.
Dean stopped and hurried back to Selene.
Noah also took Selene into his arms anxiously.
Octavia turned back as she reached the door. After seeing what her father and Dean were doing, she walked out of the Grimm family mansion without hesitation.
With all her luggage she drove straight to the civil affairs bureau.
