Chapter 612 The Biggest Mockery
For a moment, Leia was baffled.
She had kept the flash drive containing the video locked in her safe. How did that old geezer obtain theevidence?
Leia tried to think of the reason. Suddenly, she remembered that had made a copy of the video andstored it on her computer.
However, the file was heavily encrypted. Did someone manage to obtain the file from her computer?
While Leia was lost in thought, she heard the discussions going on in the hall...
"I didn't expect that the adoptive daughter of the Norman family would have a duplicitous character. Ohmy god, the doctor is old enough to be her grandfather! How shameless!" "That's right. I thought Iwanted to introduce my second son to her.
Fortunately, I didn't act on an impulse. Otherwise, my son would be in trouble. One would be extremelyunlucky to have a daughter-in-law like her "Mr. and Mrs. Norman are righteous people. How would theyhave such a shameless daughter?"
Leia wanted to shut everyone up!
She looked at her adoptive parents. They, too, looked disappointed. Her face instantly turned deathlypale, as though it would shatter at the slightest touch.
Leia spotted Bianca among the crowd in the hall.
That woman's appearance and demeanor looked so similar to Leia's adoptive mother.
Bianca was also smiling gently. To Leia, that was a mocking smile. She felt that she would beovercome by hatred and jealousy!
Leia knew that it was not the time to bother with Bianca. She was already at a dead-end, and there wasno other way to extricate herself except for denial.
She was not going to admit that the woman in the video was herself.
After arriving at that thought, she pointed angrily at the video and said sadly to Mr. and Mrs. Norman,"Dad, Mom, you can only see a small part of that woman in the video. How are you sure that she isme? The woman's voice sounds like mine, but it's so easy to imitate someone else's voice with moderntechnology! This is a trap. Dr. Hoover wants to ruin me. He must've taken money from someone to ruinmy reputation! Tell me, Dr. Hoover, why must you do this to me?"
Dr. Hoover laughed out of anger. "We’ve never interacted with each other before, Ms. Norman. Whywould I want to set you up for anything? What benefit will I get out of it? Moreover, if I were reallysetting you up, why would I put my reputation and career at stake?"
Leia had no retort to that. "I... Who knows what you're thinking? You might make up a fake video toblackmail the Norman family..." she replied weakly.
Dr. Hoover's old voice was confident. "Mr. Norman, Mrs. Norman, let's say that I've found a double andfaked her voice. I don't think I know what her body is like if I've never met her before, right? In thevideo, the woman has a mole three inches below her right breast. Mrs. Norman, after raising yourdaughter for so many years, you should know very well whether the woman in the video is yourdaughter!"
Queenie's gaze was transfixed on Leia.
At Leia's coming-of-age party, Queenie had put on Leia's gown for her. She noticed that Leia had amole below her breast, exactly like the woman in the video.
If the video was faked, she did not believe that the woman would not only have a similar body andvoice, but also a mole at the same place. That would be too ridiculous.
The only plausible conclusion was that Leia had indeed threatened Dr. Hoover to falsify the DNA testresults.
Queenie did not understand why Leia would do that.novelbin
Leia panicked when she saw her mother open her mouth. She did not want to hear her mother sayanything negative about her. However, she could not think of anything to say.
Linda, standing next to her, pinched her elbow and whispered into her ear." Quick, Leia, pretend topass out..."
Linda had been in the entertainment industry for more than ten years. She was quite experienced withdealing with such emergencies.
She had hired many entertainment reporters to the event, hoping to improve Leia's reputation. Thesudden turn in events made her weary.
When Leia heard that, she instantly clutched her chest as though struggling to catch her breath. Herlips trembled as though overcome with shock, and she suddenly passed out.
She was an actress, and it was easy for her to fake passing out. One would not notice that she wasacting if they did not look closely.
Linda caught Leia in time and shouted exaggeratedly, "What's wrong, Leia?
Wake up!"
Queenie was flustered when she saw Leia suddenly pass out.
After all, she loved her adoptive daughter for many years.
"Leia..." Queenie called out to her adoptive daughter while taking the " passed out" Leia from Linda'sarms. "Call the ambulance!" She yelled at Jack.
Jack sighed. Then, he got his secretary to call the emergency number.
Then, he turned around to address the crowd. "All of you have taken time out of your busy schedules toattend the event, but unfortunately, there are unforeseen circumstances. I sincerely apologize for theinconvenience, and I hope that you will forgive us. Please stay back, lunch will be served soon."
What was supposed to be a joyous reunion banquet turned out to be a misunderstanding.
The episode ended after Leia was sent to the hospital in an ambulance.
Bianca saw how concerned Queenie was to Leia. She felt inexplicably dejected.
Even as an outsider, Bianca could see that Queenie loved and adored Leia.
She was thinking, 'If one day I return to the Norman family and Mrs.
Norman finds out that Leia has been trying to harm me, would her attitude toward Leia change?'
Luke took Bianca's hand and said, "Alright, that's all for today. Let's go.”
They had achieved what they wanted. There was no reason to linger in the hotel.
No one paid any attention to Julie, who was sitting in a corner of the stage and crying silently.
Half an hour ago, she was surrounded and flattered by socialites.
She was still dressed exquisitely, but no one cared about her anymore.
The diamond tiara on her head was the biggest mockery of her shattered princess dreams...
