Chapter 164 The Change in Public Opinion


    Even though the news was about an earthquake, scandals about the president, or a dirty 5-star


    restaurant, she should not be woken up to check it in such a hurry, especially when she was steeped in


    the happiness of a sweet dream where she was making out with Darren, should she? She could almost


    feel the warmth of Darren''s body!


    "Oh, my girl, wake up! The news is about you!"


    "About me?" Ashlee sprang to her feet at the words.


    Shouldn''t it be ra, who was the protagonist of the current news? ra had been such a celebrity


    recently and criticism about her could be seen everywhere online. Ashlee was so happy about this that


    she had brought many new dresses as celebration.


    Yet, why would she be the focus of the news? Noticing that Valerie almost cried because of anxiety,


    she could sense that something bad had happened.


    "My girl! Read this! Those people online are going crazy! The Middleton family is done!"


    How serious! Ashlee immediately turned on her tablet.


    On the Inte, almost all the media, Twitter celebrities and WeChat groups were saying that,


    ording to the investigation, it was not ra herself who volunteered to work as a prostitute but her


    biological sister who had drugged her and then made her one.


    More importantly, they all said that they have concrete evidence because a person involved, who


    helped to frame ra, had already confessed his crime to the police. With the testimony of this


    witness, ra now was cleared of all me and rumors while Ashlee became totally notorious.


    Moreover, it was also said that ra''s mother was once raped and forced by Glenn Middleton, which


    was exactly in ordance with an old saying, "Like father, like daughter."


    People also doxed out the ugliest photo of Ashlee and posted it everywhere online.


    The truth was uncovered! Apart from that, old stories had also been posted about how Ashlee had


    bullied ra since they were kids, how she sent someone to drug ra, how she found an ugly old


    man to rape ra, and how she made ra suffer from injustice and despise for so many years by


    snapping her pictures and spreading malicious rumors.


    Astonished, Ashlee found herself suffocated and her hands couldn''t help shaking from the fear.


    Who? Who did this? No one but Darren knew the truth.


    Yet Ashlee was sure that Darren would never do this to her. Since she was pregnant, Darren had been


    much kinder to her and would call her every day when they could not see each other, so he would


    never intend to do this.


    Besides, Darren, in fear that a more in-depth investigation would be conducted on that affair, had


    already helped her to destroy as much evidence as they could find.


    Ashlee tried to calm herself down and continued her reading.


    People on almost every social media tform were cursing her and the Middleton family.


    Poor ra, been so severely bullied… Ashlee Middleton is definitely a demon, a jealous bitch! She


    looks ugly in that photo!


    The Middletons are all viins! They not only bullied the mother but also the daughter! How evil!


    Viper! Much worse than worms! Ashlee, you did those awful things to your sister! Just wait for your


    nemesis! You''ll die a horrible death!


    Ashlee, go to hell! Let the thunder kill her!


    The Middletons are all devils! Such devils can never run a reliablepany, no more coboration


    with them!


    Ashlee''s heart began to beat wildly and she could feel that her doom was approaching. How could she


    show herself up in public again anymore!


    There was another piece of news saying that the stock price of Mind Inc. had plunged since that


    morning when the news about Ashlee had been published and spread, which brought serious damage


    to the business of the Middleton family and made a lot of clients terminate their contract with it.


    Bankruptcy was the foreseeable oue.


    Ashlee got the willies and began to shiver. Was doom really approaching? She sank to the floor


    powerlessly.


    Valerie was very worried about Ashlee and helped her up immediately.


    "Mom! Mom! Help me! Help!" eyes goggling as a dead fish, Ashlee tightly held Valerie''s clothes in her


    hand.


    "I don''t want to die. I don''t. He will never let me off! Mom, I am done! I am done!"


    "Who? Who won''t let you off?" Valerie was puzzled.


    "Horace! Horace! He''ll never let me off! Mom!" in a great panic, Ashlee cried.


    Ashlee gradually realized that, even though Horace was not the one who published the news, he would


    never forgive her easily.


    Those threatening words Horace once said were imprinted in Ashlee''s mind, which always gave her


    nightmares. It was unexpected that his words had turned into reality so soon since that morning.


    Valerie began to be scared too when she heard his name. He was so omnipotent that he could make


    them kneel down as easily as he killed an ant.


    Valerie cried out, "My girl, oh, God help us! Don''t be afraid, I am here with you. I will never let ra and


    her mother off! Those bitches! They should go to hell!"


    There rang the sounds of rapid footsteps on the staircases. It was Glenn. Before he entered Ashlee''s


    room, he heard their curses on ra and her mother.


    He became very angry.


    He shouted at them furiously as soon as he crossed the threshold.


    "Bitch!" Glenn bellowed at Valerie, "I have heard everything you said just now! Had it not been for your


    insult to and hatred of ra and her mother, we wouldn''t be so miserable now! And even now, you still


    want to bully them! You are the one who should go to hell!"


    He then turned around to face Ashlee and continued, "Little devil! How dare you frame your sister? You


    are much worse than the devil! ra is your sister!"


    Seeing that Glenn scolded Ashlee because of ra, Valerie burst into ming rage as if there was a


    volcano erupting in her body.


    She shouted back, "Don''t shout at us! If you hadn''t been with Helena Selman, there wouldn''t be the


    little bitch ra! She is satisfied now since she sessfully defamed her sister and nearly brought


    bankruptcy to ourpany. She is a troublemaker and a curse! Ashlee just wanted to teach her some


    lessons since we don''t like her at all! Don''t make a fuss!"


    Ashlee began to whimper.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.


    Valerie continued, spitting as she spoke, "Ashlee is pregnant now and she has tried her best to keep


    Darren by her side for us. They are going to get married! However, how about the other daughter of


    you? ra, what has she done? After she married Horace, she brought countless troubles to us. You


    should me her and make her beg for our forgiveness!"


    Retorted sharply by Valeri Bet and vexed by Ashlee''s crying, Glenn couldn''t shout his indignation


    out anymore and began to me himself.


    If he had controlled his sexual desire when facing Helena Selman, there would not be so many troubles


    at all.


    When the Middletons were sitting in the vi trying to figure out a solution, a boom suddenly rang


    downstairs and a group of people in ck stormed in.
