Chapter 226 Truth or Slap
Finished
At that moment, all words seemed to be caught by an invisible hand in the throat, leaving everyone speechless.
“Willow, don’t be afraid, tell me, and I will definitely avenge you.”
David didn’t receive a response from Willow but instead heard Felix’s voice, laced with a chilling undertone.
“I did it, Mr. David. How do you plan to retaliate against me?”
David’s body stiffened dramatically as he incredulously turned to look at Felix.
Felix leaned lazily on the couch, his long legs casually crossed. He appeared nonchalant, yet he radiated an inherent elegance.
He was like a hunter who toyed with his prey from a lofty perch, looking down disdainfully as if he stood on the clouds, his gaze indifferent and commanding, as though he was looking at trash.
David, for all his arrogance, couldn’t help but doubt himself. Did Felix really release Willow from detention as a favor to me?
Suddenly, he recalled Felix’s earlier remark. The real show is about to begin? The real show? Instinct told me that Felix’s idea of a ‘show‘ was definitely not going to be good for me.
As David fell into self–doubt, Brielle could no longer suppress her fury. Her eyes bloodshot, she stormed up to Willow and slapped her across the face with a loud smack.
The force of the slap turned Willow’s head to the side, leaving a clear imprint of five fingers on her pale cheek.
“My daughter was pushed down the stairs by you, and you dare frame Lauren? You’re not human, you’re a demon!” Brielle’s voice trembled with rage.
Willow had caused Elaine to be in a vegetative state for five years and Lauren to be wrongfully imprisoned for five years, directing the Gray family’s fury at innocent Lauren.
They were like fools, manipulated by Willow and David. When they took their revenge on Lauren, the real culprits were likely mocking their stupidity. Five years! Played for fools for five long years.
It wasn’t just Lauren’s life that was ruined.
Elaine was only fifteen when she became a vegetative victim, right after she had passed the High School Placement Test for Hoverdale First High School.
Hoverdale First High School was the top high school in Hoverdale, and only two children of the local elite, Lauren and Elaine, had passed the test.
Lauren spent what should have been her college years in prison, while Elaine’s high school and college years were spent in a hospital bed.
Facing the person who had destroyed my daughter’s life, how could I not hate her? Brielle pondered.
She wished she could tear Willow apart right then.
She raised her hand to slap Willow again, but before it could fall, Kenneth firmly grasped her arm.
“Mom, how can you hit Willow without knowing the whole story?”
Brielle looked at Kenneth with a pained expression, “Because she pushed Elaine down the stairs and turned her into a vegetative state. Isn’t that reason enough for me to hit her?”
“Impossible!” Kenneth immediately objected, “Mom, you’ve watched Willow grow up. You know how kind she is. It’s impossible for her to have pushed Elaine. There must be some misunderstanding. Maybe Elaine just lost her balance and…”
“Kenneth!”

Chapter 226 Truth or Slap
She couldn’t believe that even now, Kenneth was trying to exonerate Willow, still trying to whitewash her actions.
He had claimed to love Lauren, yet he was the one who had hurt her deeply.
Finished
He had wanted to break off his engagement with Willow years ago, and now, with the truth out, he was desperately trying to clear Willow’s name.
Elaine suddenly felt an intense disgust towards Kenneth.
Honestly, Kenneth’s actions hurt her even more deeply than Willow’s betrayal.
“Kenneth, I’m telling you clearly now, the person who pushed me down the stairs five years ago was Willow, and Lauren was framed!” Elaine yelled, her voice full of anger and grievance,
“No, it wasn’t me, really, it wasn’t me.” Willow shook her head desperately, tears swirling in her eyes. Her tearful plea, along with the fresh slap mark on her face, made her look immensely wronged.
“Kenn, you have to believe me,” she said, her voice breaking with sobs.
