Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' novel Chapter 514

Chapter 514: Don’t Need You

Hannah bit her lip. Was Selina actually serious about making her kneel and apologize?!

She had only agreed because she thought Selina wouldn’t embarrass her like this in front of so many people.

If she really knelt, it wouldn’t just be her losing face—Selina would be branded as "the stepdaughter who forced her stepmother to kneel," and she herself would be condemned by everyone!

So how could Selina dare?

Selina simply looked at Hannah with a faint smile, neither signing the document nor speaking a word.

Half a minute ticked by, and the Morris Group representatives began to grow anxious.

"Ms. Hill, you just agreed to this a moment ago..."

"That’s right. Even if Grandma Morris and Chairman Morris made mistakes, if it weren’t for your greed, the Morris Family wouldn’t have ended up like this..."

"You’re just a second wife—how dare you take credit for the first wife’s work? Come on, listen to Selina!"

Hannah clenched her jaw tighter and tighter.

She knew that whether for the sake of her future plans or to salvage her already fragile reputation today, she had to kneel.

Even if she didn’t want to, the Morris Family would force her to.

But to kneel to Victoria’s daughter? She couldn’t stomach it!

Standing before her, Victoria’s daughter seemed like someone from a world entirely different from hers.

Under the crowd’s contemptuous urging, Hannah reminded herself that this humiliation meant nothing compared to her long-term plans. She gritted her teeth and slowly lowered herself.

With a dull thud, her knees hit the ground.

Why was it that Victoria and Selina, after doing so many despicable things, still had people defending them, while she—just for taking over Victoria’s life—deserved to be treated like this?

Fine. She would remember this.

Selina, satisfied, withdrew her gaze and signed her name with crisp efficiency. "Let’s go to the conference room to talk."

As she passed Hannah, something seemed to occur to her. She bent down slightly and, in a voice only the two of them could hear, said,

"Ms. Hill, you look awfully wronged."

Hannah’s eyes flashed with hatred.

"Kneeling to me makes you feel this wronged? But Ms. Hill... the truth is, you didn’t kneel to me today."

Hannah froze for half a second before her face drained of color—

She really hadn’t knelt to Selina... She had knelt to Victoria!

Now the whole world knew the design belonged to Victoria. And she, the plagiarist, had indeed knelt to Victoria!

Ahhh! Hannah’s emotions, which she had been holding back until now, suddenly collapsed.

Selina, however, didn’t spare her a glance. She went straight into the conference room with the Turner Group team.

...

Seeing that things had been settled, Logan ended the livestream.

Two people walked in from outside, chatting to themselves. "Logan, long time no see!"

Jack narrowed his eyes at them. It had been years since he’d met people so rude and presumptuous. He was about to throw them out when the man among them plopped himself down on the sofa as if he owned the place.
