Cameron’s voice was booming across the hall, and it pained the ear drums of those who were present!
Florence was completely at a loss at that moment.
Never in her dreams would she imagine that she would lose face and had her reputation destroyed so
blatantly in front of her whole family!
Her eyes were reddish.
She bit her lips hard, and her body was shaking uncontrollably.
Caroline still wanted to say something, but Cameron roared with a serious tone, “Shut up!”
Caroline held back her words.
Normally at home, she was the one deciding all the details and trivial matters, but when things became
serious like when Cameron was engulfed in anger, she would still listen to him.
She could only watch Florence from a distance while holding back her sympathy.
Deep down, she of course felt angry at her daughter.
She began to wonder what drove her daughter to do something so heinous.
“You still don’t want to admit?” Cameron’s face darkened.
He even raised his hand the moment as if he was about to slap Florence.
His action finally stirred the others there.
Darren immediately pulled Cameron back, “Dad, calm down please. You are scaring Florence now.
How do you expect her to talk in this state?”
“He’s right. You should calm down first.” Edward also chipped in.
At that juncture, Evelyn hastily came to Florence’s side. She helped her to stand in her weakened state
and said gently, “Florence, you can take your time to talk. We know that you must have you reasons,
otherwise you won’t simply kill Pamilla and even frame Gianna, am I right?”
Florence was completely devastated at that moment.
She didn’t know how she was going to survive in this family from that moment on.
In what light would her family members see her in now? How would they view her as a person?
Such humiliation where she was getting exposed could really drive her to death’s door!
She continued to bite her lips, but no words came out of her mouth.
She really had the urge to kill Gianna now.
She wanted to kill this woman who had embarrassed her.
“Florence!” Without getting her reply, Cameron was once again angered.
At that moment, he shoved Darren aside angrily and moved towards Florence, looking like he was
about to bring down his palms on her face.
He was at his limits.
“Dad.” Gianna took a few steps towards him and pulled him, “I know why she did that.”
Cameron froze in his steps.
His arm stopped the swinging in mid-air.
“Don’t slap Florence. I’ll tell you.” Gianna sounded a little agitated.
Cameron tried to hold back his anger as he put down his hands and glared at Florence.
However, Florence was gazing coldly at Gianna.
For Gianna who was going to play the role of a kind person even after destroying her, Florence couldn’t
help but wanting to tear her apart.
“Say it.” Cameron tried to lower his voice.
Gianna looked very torn.
Then, she replied, “Dad, I’ll tell you when we’re alone.”
“I want you to say it out loud in front of everyone!” Cameron didn’t want to give in.
Gianna turned to look at Caroline, “Mum, I think I should just tell you about Florence in private…”
“We are family, there’s nothing we should hide from each other!” Cameron cut Gianna off curtly, “You
just spill it, don’t need to care for her reputation! I am really curious to know what kind of reason she
has to do something like that!”
Gianna held back.
In fact, she didn’t intend to care about Florence’s pride.
After all, she was ridiculed by Florence, so she didn’t have any reason or kindness to help her.
She was just afraid that if she exposed the truth, she would be distanced by the Walkers. They could
brand her as not being thoughtful of Florence’s feelings.
Other than that, what if something inexplicable happened to Florence? No matter the process, if she
was lauded as the one in the wrong in the end, it would be too costly of a mistake for her and she could
never pull herself out of the mess anymore.
Now that she had confirmed that Cameron had intended for her to reveal the truth, she had nothing
holding her back anymore.
She said, “That’s because she likes Kingsley.”
The moment she said that, everyone was blown away.
The very power of her words could rival the incident where Florence had killed Pamilla and framed
Gianna.
Everyone was staring at Gianna.
Florence’s face was drained of all colours.
How did Gianna learn of this?
How did Gianna know?
Did Harriet tell her that?
She stared at Harriet with an incomprehensible and cruel expression, the maid she was the closest to.
She couldn’t believe Harriet would betray her.
Harriet immediately sensed Florence’s unfriendly expression and she hastily refuted, “Miss, I never say
anything about that at all. Sister-in-law sees through that on her own. You have to believe me, I never
say anything…”
“Get out of my sight now! Scram, and I never want to see you again!” At this moment, Florence finally
put down all of her pretences as she roared at Gianna uncontrollably.
Everyone was utterly stunned by her sudden explosion.
Those who had heard the recording just now could only imagine how Florence would look like when
she said those cruel words.
Now that they finally witnessed Florence’s true colours first hand, it added to their disgust even more.
“Miss, you and the Young Master Kingsley are siblings. It’s not right for you to love him. It’s just now
right!” Harriet said while crying, “Actually, I have always wanted to remind you of this, but fearing you
would scold me, I hesitated. I wanted to tell Mr. and Mrs. Walker too, but I was afraid that they too
would hurt you. That is how I can keep mum about this for so long. But now, I agree with sister-in-law’s
words. She said that we can’t let you make this mistake forever, and we must stop your meaningless
feelings, or else it would become something damaging for your body and soul…”
“Shut the hell up!” Florence mustered all of her strength and screamed at the top of her lungs. She
pointed at Harriet like a barbarian and said with a contorted face, “When did I fall for my brother? When
did I do that? My feeling towards him is one that exists between a sister and elder brother! Why are you
and Gianna so cold-hearted and disgusting? Why did you have to grill me like that and embarrass me?
I just happen to dislike Gianna from deep down, and I don’t like to see her at home, so that was why I
have instructed you to kill Pamilla and frame Gianna. I simply don’t like Gianna, but you have twisted
the words in your favour. Are you trying to drive me to my wit’s end?”
“Miss…” Harriet was in deep agony as she watched Florence’s flustered face, “You don’t need to
pretend anymore. Just come clean with it, and the family might be able to help you. Mr. and Mrs.
Walker has been so doting on you, so they must be able to help you to leave behind your feelings for
Young Master Kingsley. You can’t do this anymore, I beg you to stop being like this.”
“Gianna must be the one who has told you to say this, right? In order to humiliate me, and in order to
get revenge on me for framing her on Pamilla, so Gianna must have forced you to say those words,
right? Tell me the truth now, I promise that I won’t lay a finger on you. Tell the truth now, I beg you to tell
the truth now!” Florence was begging with a very wronged expression. She could hardly contain her
agitation.
There was no way she could admit that she had feelings for Kingsley here. She wanted to link Gianna
and Harriet together as the scheming duo who was targeting her.
In the end, if she was going to get destroyed here, she must drag some people down with her!
