Chapter 298

Lloyd took Sara to the backstage lounge, Soon, Frederick also returned to the lounge after he had taken care of everything, dismissed the reporters as well as Mike and Jack, and handed over the scene to professionals. He did not dare to check his phone. Public criticism against Harvey Group had to have erupted, and it would take a long time to calm down.

Seeing Sara breathing heavily and breaking out in a cold sweat, Lloyd poured a glass of water for her. But Sara shook her head.

Frederick said, “Mom, drink some water. Health is the most important thing no matter what. You must take care of yourself.”

“Frederick, Lloyd, w–what did I do wrong? I don’t understand at all. I can understand if Selina hates me for losing her, not caring about her feelings after reuniting with her, and wronging her. But Ashley… Why did Ashley become like this? She is such an innocent, obedient young lady. How did she become a vixen who hooked up with two men to climb the social ladder?” Sara looked at Frederick and Lloyd in confusion. At this moment, she began to doubt her faith in life.

“Mom… Maybe Ashley just did this out of ignorance.” Frederick could only try to comfort Sara. If Sara knew what Ashley was really like, the consequences would be terrible. As he was lying to Sara and smoothing things over for Ashley, he felt utterly disgusted.

*Mom… People grow up and change, and this kind of change is beyond our expectations. Before this happened, none of us thought that Ashley would become what she is now. Those people with ulterior motives can even use her against our family. You have done a good job. Ashley doesn’t know how to cherish a good mother like you. It has nothing to do with you. Don’t blame yourself!” The more Lloyd said, the angrier he became. He thought, ‘Ashley does not deserve Mom’s love at all! Mom is so nice to her. How can she bear to make Mom so sad and embarrassed in public?‘

“Nothing to do with me? How can this have nothing to do with me? As a mother, I failed to educate my daughter well. This is my dereliction of duty. Selina is right. I am not worthy of being a mother at all because I have no idea what my children need. I gave Ashley too much love and Selina too much indifference. Oh yeah, Selina. Wasn’t Selina here just now?” Sara got up and rushed out of the lounge. She was eager to see Selina and ask her a question. Otherwise, the knot in her heart could never be resolved.

“Mom!” Sara was so fast that Frederick and Lloyd did not get to stop her. They hurriedly went after her, but after turning around a corner, they lost sight of her.

“Let’s split up! Lloyd, we have to replace Mom quickly! We must not let her see Selina. Otherwise, she may be stimulated or even replace out what Ashley did to Selina!” Frederick reminded.

“I got it, Frederick. I will go this way. You can check around the back door!” Lloyd said.

“Okay!” Frederick responded.

Meanwhile, Selina and Lydia had already left the venue. They walked to the street from the back door, bought two milkshakes on the way, and drank them while waiting for the taxi. Because everyone was talking about Ashley now, no one paid attention to them. After watching a good show, Selina did not expect it to bring her such a benefit. She was over the moon.

Panting, Sara, who had rushed out, glanced around helplessly. Suddenly, as if by telepathy, she looked in the direction of Selina. “Selina!”

Everyone’s attention instantly focused on Sara as soon as she shouted. She had become well–known at the press conference just now. When she shouted now, everyone began to whisper. They wondered, ‘Sara is calling Selina? Is it Queen Selina with countless hidden identities? Where is she?‘ From a distance, Sara passed through the crowd and rushed toward Selina. She finally found Selina.

Lydia was dumbfounded. “Damn it! What’s wrong with Sara? She just messed up the press conference and came to us now. Is she trying to put the blame on us?”

Selina uttered coldly, “Let her be. Anyway, it is the Harvey family who is making a fool of themselves. It has nothing to do with me.” She would like to see how shameless Sara could be.

When Sara came up to Selina, her face was pale, and her hair was messy and sweaty due to running. She did not look like a graceful prominent lady but a patient who had escaped from a mental hospital due to some stimulation.

Selina looked indifferent and asked, “Mrs. Harvey, what can I do for you?”

The look in Selina’s eyes was like a dagger to Sara’s heart. Because of this pain, Sara could not retreat. She pleaded cautiously, “Selina, I have something to ask you. Please answer me, okay?”

Sara had never looked so fragile and humble. Even when she had founded Harvey Group with Quinton back then without much money and had to ask for help from others, she had always secured projects and investments confidently, and her ability had impressed others and gained their trust. At that time, she was proud, confident, and gorgeous. Today, she was totally different from what she used to be.

Even Selina was stunned by Sara’s unprecedented fragility. She had never thought that Sara would show such an expression in front of her. ‘What a turn of events, she thought.

Lydia kept quiet. No matter what, Sara was Selina’s mother. Although Lydia thought that Sara was not worthy of being a mother, only Selina had the right to respond.

“Mrs. Harvey, I don’t think I can answer your question. Or rather, you already have an answer in your mind. You don’t need to ask for my opinion because you will only hear cruel ridicule from me.” Selina glanced at the crowd gathered around. Some took out their phones to take photos and videos of Selina and Sara. “At this juncture, instead of tangling with me and embarrassing yourself, why don’t you care for Ashley? It is a big sin to cause such a huge, negative impact on the company.”

Sara asked, “Selina, am I really such an unworthy mother? Why did Ashley become like this? I have given her everything I can, including education, love, attention, and status. I forced you to leave, caused you to cut ties with the Harvey family, and did not believe in your innocence. Now, even Ashley-”

“So you already have the answer. Why bother asking me? You are an unworthy mother, Sara. You don’t deserve to be a mother at all. You should not have given birth to children because they would only hate you!” Selina interrupted before Sara could finish speaking. ‘She already knew my answer. Did she expect me to sympathize with her because she looked pitiful and lie to her that she was a good mother? Ridiculous! I have paid off what I owed her in my previous life. We have nothing to do with each other in this life. She is not qualified to be my mother!‘ she thought.
