Chapter 700 It's You Who Wants Me Dead

"What do you mean I'm a sly woman? It's you who wants me dead, Meredith!" Selena directly called her 'Meredith'. "You even claimed to be biracial and called yourself Mia. However, you indeed almost fooled Pierre and me!"

Previously, after Pierre tried to feel 'Mia' out, he concluded that Meredith wouldn't do such a despicable thing. Moreover, given John's temperament, he wouldn't have allowed Meredith to stay alive. Nevertheless, Selena was still doubtful. Her sixth sense told her that there must be something wrong with 'Mia', and the call from Hades proved her right.

"Meredith, are you the mastermind behind all these? You'd better be honest with me. If you tell me the real mastermind, I might choose to let you go." Selena spoke as she exerted more force with her hand, causing Meredith to cough violently.

Then, Selena relaxed her grip, after which Meredith collapsed to the ground. Meredith knew that she couldn't point Linda out. Although she had failed in her attempt to kill Selena, Linda would still do whatever she could to achieve that. I can never expose Linda!

"Where did you get the 50 million?" Selena questioned.

"I'm a superstar, so it's not hard for me to earn 50 million."

Selena frowned, as they had figured out that 'Mia' couldn't possibly earn so much money. Did she sleep with other businessmen or something?

Just then, Meredith sneered, "Selena, do you know how much I hate you? Why did you decide to come back after you were gone? If it weren't because of you, I would've gotten together with Pierre! It was you who destroyed my dream and my life!" She growled at the top of her lungs, trying to get the fury off her chest.

"You only have yourself to blame!"

"Do you know what kind of life I was leading? I was dumped in the red-light district. At that place, my pride was shattered as I had to drink, sing and sleep with those filthy men! I had to endure their humiliation on me physically and psychologically! Selena, how I wish I could make you live the same kind of life!"

Hearing that, Selena was startled, as they had all underestimated John. They thought that since John was a ruthless man, he would definitely kill Meredith after replaceing out that she had lied to them. Nevertheless, John was more cold-hearted than they thought as he had dumped Meredith in the red light district. That place was probably the worst punishment for her.

After all, she was a proud woman who was born wealthy, so she would certainly feel utterly humiliated in a red-light district. At that time, John must be thinking that the best way to retaliate on a person was to shatter their pride. Selena had to acknowledge that John was indeed the most devious man she had ever seen.

"That's why I want you dead! It's really unfair that you're living a good life while I have to live in the gutter!" Meredith's voice became hoarse from all the yelling.

"Meredith, you'd made a mistake the moment you stole my kids from me and told Pierre that you'd given birth to his kids. At that time, you should have known what the consequences would be if your wrongdoing was exposed. This was a gamble, and you should've braced yourself for the eventuality should you lose the bet. Now that you've lost it, you only have yourself to blame."

"No! It's all because of you! Although I can't kill you today, I'll still come at you in the future!"

Selena stared at Meredith and found her to be pathetic, for the latter hadn't awakened to reality up until now. "Stop being so obstinate. Since you'd escaped from the red-light district, you should've started a new life. Why did you still choose to retaliate against me?"

Just when Selena was about to bend over, Meredith grabbed a handful of soil and hurled it at Selena's eyes.

"Ah!" The soil had entered Selena's eyes, so she couldn't open her eyes.

Seizing the chance, Meredith scrambled to her feet and ran away.
