The Billionaire’s Treasure Wife

Chapter 252 : Shame with a capital letter



After the two people entered the hotel through the emergency channel, that is, led by the staff, went directly to the venue backstage.

The entire squad, at this time, are in the backstage waiting area, see them come in have greeted.

Edward, dressed in formal wear, looked at Lindsey with mixed emotions. “How long will it take for Lily to get down?”

“This you do not ask me.” Lindsey spread her hands and held back a smile as she locked eyes with him. “Wait patiently again, it’s yours to run.”

“But I have to go on a blind date tomorrow.” Edward’s face sank. “How about you help me find an excuse not to go.”

Before Lindsey could say anything, Bruce interjected. “You can just play missing, your family Old Mr. Grant hands even longer, but also can not reach the nine lake mountain.”

This means to help, Edward smiled, immediately convinced to give him a thumbs up.

Lindsey looked at Bruce with a smile on her face and held hands as she went to talk to Karen.

After a few moments of chatting backstage, the launch was about to take place and the others got up and headed out, Lindsey asked Larissa for a hat, dragged Bruce out with her, and quietly took a seat in the last row.

The two did not alert anyone, holding hands, sweetly looking at the simple stage set up.

The first person to speak on stage was Larissa, who first spoke about the rumors and questions that had been going around for a while, and then took the initiative to mention that Lindsey would not be attending tonight.

This result was expected and the media did not react much to it.

Larissa explained the reason, and Followed by talking about the event’s small group going to the mountains.

The actress, who has won an international award, would have been touched by Larissa’s words if she hadn’t known her so well.

Listening to the sobbing sounds around, Lindsey couldn’t help but cover her mouth and came up to Bruce’s ear and laughed: “It’s a good thing Larissa is popular, or I would really spend money to promote her.”

“Do you mean to say that her words are all lies.” Bruce also laughed, deliberately lowering his voice to a whisper. “I think what she said was very good.”

“Don’t you think she’s a great actress, you can’t tell the difference between real and fake?” Lindsey finished her explanation and her eyes fell back to the stage again.

This time it was Edward who spoke, he wasn’t as melodramatic as Larissa, nor did he deliberately try to please the media on the spot. Instead, he directly hit those journalists who had questioned the fund in the face with solid evidence.

All the expenses of the fund were available online, while all the additional expenses came from Lindsey and Larissa’s accounts, as evidenced by the bank flow.

After releasing all the data, Edward opened the PPT and showed the pictures and images taken during the trip, one by one.

After the ten-minute long PPT was finished, Edward took the microphone and spoke slowly. “Today, I want to solemnly thank one person.”

Edward’s words fell to the ground, and the scene became silent at once.

On the big screen behind him, Lindsey’s photo slowly appeared, and the shooting time in the lower right corner showed that the photo was taken four years ago.

Lindsey’s long hair is like a waterfall, her eyebrows are youthful and full of vitality. A tailored black dress depicts her body’s exquisite curves to the extreme.

Lindsey looked at the photo with surprise, and had a vague memory in her head. It seems to be the auction, Bruce suddenly disappeared in the venue, she and Cary together to run out.

Bruce’s heart is a little tasty, sullen take her shoulder, the tone of acid. “This guy is deliberately disgusting me, right.”

“Small-minded, it’s not too late to be jealous when he’s done talking.” Lindsey was also curious about what Edward was up to.

Also curious were Selena and Aurora, who were sitting in the VIP seats in the front row.

They were invited to the launch and expected Lindsey to be there, but instead of seeing her, they saw Edward hang her on the wall.

The first photo lingers for about a minute, followed by the second one.

This photo is on the set of the film, Lindsey hanging from the body, long hair flying in the wind, white and delicate side of the face, in the sunset afterglow, the beauty is breathtaking.

Immediately after, a third photo appeared. This time, the place of shooting, is in a country in Africa.

Lindsey, with a warm smile of compassion on her face, is looking down and injecting medication into a skinny child.

The photo was framed and Edward’s voice rang out. “The person I want to thank is her. I’m sure many of you know her and like to talk about who she is.”

Edward smiled slightly and continued, “But to me, she is like an angel. With her own meager strength, she raised the Hui Ai Foundation, and with her clean and warm smile, she has saved many children struggling with illnesses and pains.”

The whole venue was silent, and Edward’s smile looked extraordinarily dazzling on the stage.

After a moment, he cleared his throat and spoke once more, “I know that many of you, even my family, once thought that she and I were a couple. In fact, I’m just her partner and her best friend.”

“Mr. Edward, to put it bluntly, you’re the spare tire, right?” A guttural voice suddenly came from the bottom. “She’s hooked up with The Grant family and can’t see you.”

“This reporter friend seems to know a lot, but do you know that Lindsey was Bruce’s wife four years ago.” Edward’s eyes rose to a sulk. “To be precise, it should be nearly five years ago, they fell in love at first sight in L city, and went back to b city and then went through the marriage procedure.”

When this statement was made, the whole meeting was instantly in an uproar. Even Lindsey was shocked by his statement and looked at Bruce nervously. “He’s crazy, right? Once this statement gets out, Miss Aurora will become a mistress.”

Bruce rubbed the top of her head, signaling her to calm down a little.

To be honest, he couldn’t figure out Edward’s purpose for saying this. Whether he really wanted to put Lindsey’s name right, or had other intentions.

In the midst of the noise, the reporter who spoke up earlier, asked again in a loud voice: “According to Mr. Edward, is The Palvin family’s daughter not a mistress.”

“I just said, you know a lot.” Edward raised his eyebrows lightly and smiled abruptly. “Unfortunately, it’s all gossip, there has never been anything between Miss Aurora and Bruce, if you don’t believe me, you can ask Miss Aurora for proof.”

Aurora at the bottom was horrified, how could she have imagined that Edward had actually set up a bureau for herself to jump.

No matter what she said, her reputation could not be saved, even if she was not a mistress, she was still a liar.

Selena was also frightened by Edward’s hand, and remembering Larissa’s opening statement, she immediately had a very bad feeling in her heart.

This conference, rather than clarifying the false rumors about the Hui Ai Foundation, is more like a bloodless counterattack.

It both promoted Hui Ai and invariably boosted Lindsey’s image.

And he can say Lindsey and Bruce is met in L city, must also know that initially, The Grant family is planning to have a wedding.

This matter is not news in the court circle, so that later Aurora lived in the old house of The Grant family, everyone has applauded, said the sparrow again how to dress up, but also can not become a phoenix.

However, the fact is that the sparrow not only became a phoenix, but also a few grades higher than the children of the world.

The more Selena thought about it, the more frightened she was. Remembering what Randy had told her, she felt a sense of fear and could not help but regret that she should not have come to see the fun.

The more frightened she is, the more Aurora is in a dilemma.

It was not a good feeling to be roasted on the fire, especially when the person who set the fire was herself.

In the gloomy atmosphere, she went on stage, tried to look calm, and gracefully accepted the microphone from Edward.

After turning the microphone switch off, she said to Edward with a smile on her face and gritted her teeth. “It doesn’t feel good to fall out of love, so why is Edward making it hard for me.”

“Who says I’m out of love.” Edward smiled at her malevolent gaze, his thin lips lightly opened. “I’m getting married soon, to the person I love most.”

Aurora blinked incredulously, lowered her head and took a deep breath, turned on the microphone switch with difficulty, and spoke with a smile, “I don’t want to talk too much about feelings, but Mr. Edward is right about one thing.”

The noisy meeting room became quiet again, all waiting for her next.

“Between Bruce and me, there is nothing, this outsider heard the news, most of them are also gossip.” Aurora finished, provocative glance at Edward. “If Bruce really married someone else a few years ago, it can only be said that, when young, who has not loved a few scum.”

The words landed on the floor, and the venue resounded with good-natured laughter.

“Pfft …” Lindsey couldn’t tense up for a moment when she heard this, and snorted out a laugh. “Scum, brother Bruce, there’s a super thick-skinned person cursing you.”

Bruce blackened his face and turned to seal her lips fiercely.

He is not the most clear about his own scum, is not she.

The kiss was lingering for a moment, and Aurora’s voice was suddenly heard again in his ears. “In fact, loving the wrong person is not terrible, what is terrible is that some people refuse to pull out even if they are wrong, I am glad that I saw it early.”

Aurora handed the microphone back to Edward and raised her chin in triumph.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

She has seen this kind of scene many times, just playing lip service, she is at least a famous family, how could she lose.

But she always felt that Lindsey and Bruce were in this venue, waiting to see what they were up to.

This bureau is not so much set up for themselves, but rather Edward for Lindsey ready to go out of his way.

You know, when he took Lindsey away for three years, who can guarantee that in these three years, they have never had anything between them.

Edward smiled, took back the microphone and slowly opened his mouth. “In fact, lying is not terrible, what is terrible is that some people know they are lying, but still put on a righteous face.”

Aurora paused in her steps, her good manners crumbling instantly, and turned her head to glare angrily at Edward. “Please, Mr. Hawke, be clear.”

Edward was still smiling, his gaze flicked meaningfully in Lindsey’s direction, and the tip of his index finger, gently dropped to the tablet.
