There’s Something to See Again!
“That’s right. After all, they’re going to get married. We’re not that old-fashioned, so we understand!”
Seeing that there were no objections, David extended his hand and patted Edwin on the shoulder,
seemingly in a proud manner. “From tomorrow onward, Edwin and I will be family. Please delete any
videos you’ve recorded just now. If any information that is not conducive to the Saunders Family are
revealed to the public in the future, then we’ll have to individually investigate based on the surveillance
footage and get to the bottom of it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, coughs sounded from all around the place. The guests who had
taken videos didn’t want to cause trouble, so they began to silently delete them.
At this moment, a guest suddenly exclaimed, “Look over there. There’s something to see on the
projector again!”
Everyone turned toward the projector and saw that the screen that was turned off had lit up again, and
a man and a woman appeared on it.
Although most of the guests weren’t familiar with the man, David recognized his housekeeper, Gabriel,
at just one glance.
As for the woman, everyone in the audience knew who she was. She was none other than the main
focus of the previous video, Celina, who was praised for her good figure.
The sound system that was originally used to play symphonic music to set the mood was now
broadcasting audio that was synchronized with the screen in real time.
Celina uttered, “Remember, you must personally hand this red dress over to Elise. My father hates red
the most. It’s a disgrace to the entire Saunders Family. At that time, as long as Elise dares to wear it, I
will definitely ruin her reputation!”
Gabriel replied, “Don’t worry, Miss Celina. I will personally handle it and make sure it’s done properly.
But, when the time comes, if Master David tracks it down—”
Celina interrupted, “What are you afraid of? By then, let’s strike the iron while it’s hot and make Elise
turn into an unruly b*tch who deliberately creates trouble. I’ll say some stuff to prompt my father to drive
her out. Elise is just a wild girl who came back from the country, and the Anderson Family won’t support
her. Even if she finds out, what can she do to me in the Saunders Residence? My father loves me the
most, and he won’t damage my reputation at the birthday banquet. In the end, Elise can only silently
endure everything!”
Hearing that, Gabriel uttered, “Miss Celina, you’ve really thought it through. I’ll do as you wish.”
The video came to an abrupt end. Most people had yet to react to why this video suddenly appeared,
but they’d already taken in everything that was shown in the video.
The servants of the Saunders Family reacted in a flash this time. As soon as David looked over, they
had already unplugged the power supply.
But, what was the use of that? Everyone had clearly seen and heard how Celina instructed Gabriel to
harm Elise.
David was so livid that his whole face had turned scarlet.
Bad things happened one after another during this birthday banquet. What kind of daughter have I
raised?!
It didn’t matter if she schemed against someone behind their backs, but how could she leave evidence
behind? She’s just stupid and hopeless!
Although the video had left a huge impact, there was one thing Celina was right about. Elise was alone,
and although she was the daughter of the Anderson Family, she wasn’t favored. Without the support of
the Anderson Family, even if she was wronged, and even if Celina clearly wanted to ruin her reputation,
no one was willing to stand on her side and become an enemy of the Saunders Family as well as their
relatives and friends.
At the end of the day, this was a conflict between Celina and Elise. These guests were just outsiders,
so it wouldn’t be good for them to criticize.
What was more, they were in the Saunders Residence, and David had just settled such a huge mess,
so if someone were to begin criticizing, they would inevitably be targeted by the Saunders Family.
However, Elise had to ask for justice in public.
She wordlessly stepped forward until she was standing in front of David, then she looked up and said
with dignity, “Mr. Saunders, should I ask Miss Celina to come down and give me an explanation for
what was just shown on the projector?”
David narrowed his eyes, then lowered his eyes domineeringly and spoke in a warning tone. “Miss
Sinclair, you believe in groundless accusations? Although I’m not in the best of health, I’m not blind.
Are you wearing a red dress?”
This sentence hit the nail on the head and pointed out what was mentioned in the video, causing the
guests to begin their discussion again.
“Oh, that woman in red is the eldest young miss of the Anderson Family, right?”
“If Miss Sinclair is wearing a red dress, wouldn’t I be color blind?”
“It’s not just you. Everyone in this room would be color blind!”
The guests were acting enigmatically, and most of them were partial to helping David. After all, Elise
wasn’t going to lose anything in this situation. Instead, it seemed like she was finding fault with them.
Unmoved by these suspicions, Elise explained in a kind manner, “If I hadn’t given the dress to Faye
because I felt that my identity couldn’t match up to its color and price, I’m afraid I would’ve already
become a scorned street rat who would have to leave here early. Mr. Saunders, you’re more energized
now, so you must’ve forgotten how your life was on the line just now. If I hadn’t saved you, then now, I
would be the culprit who caused you to fall into a severe coma, struggling between life and death. Or,
perhaps I would be considered a murderer! Even so, do you still think that this is something that can be
summed up as a groundless accusation?”
When she said this, the guests who originally thought it was just a minor argument between two bad-
tempered girls suddenly felt frightened.
“Uh… If Mr. Saunders hadn’t been rescued just now, wouldn’t it have turned into a murder case?!”
“Oh, my God! Miss Sinclair almost became a murderer. That’s not right—she’s Miss Anderson, so she’s
ultimately the daughter of the Anderson Family. Do the Saunderses and Andersons have a grudge
against each other?”
“Wait. Am I the only one who noticed a problem? This red dress was given by Miss Saunders, so if the
rumors are true, Miss Saunders wants to kill Mr. Saunders!”
“That’s terrible. There are really some things that we can’t dwell on. A woman who can do that kind of
thing at her own birthday party probably has no limit. She’s capable of anything!”
When David noticed that the public opinion had tilted in favor of Elise, he couldn’t help but gulp.
If this continued, he figured he truly couldn’t avoid it and would have to investigate the matter.
The Saunders Family had been humiliated enough today, so he wouldn’t allow any more trouble from
occurring.
“No matter what happened…” David deliberately moved the microphone closer to him and raised the
volume, letting his voice overshadow the discussions. “Miss Sinclair, I’m completely safe now. There
aren’t any murderers here, and no crimes happened. Today is my daughter’s birthday banquet, so I
don’t want anyone to use such false claims to ruin the atmosphere. I believe you should be able to
understand the feelings of a father who loves his daughter!”
He was clearly using his authority as the host to force Elise to give up pursuing this matter.
At the same time, it was also a warning to the guests that supporting Elise meant that they were openly
opposing him.
As the conscience of the visitors were awoken, the discussion suddenly died down and they remained
silent.
