Chapter 378

Chapter 378 I'm Olive Woods Vega was indeed good at playing pitiful If I hadn't witnessed her actions, perhaps I would have even been a bit confused, wondering if I might have accidentally spilled her wine indeed And that was what most people were thinking right now. They quickly gathered around, looked at Vega, who was wiping her dress 1n a sorry state, and then looked at me, who was standing aside with my head high while saying nothing. Most people were looking for proof that I hated Vega on my expressionless face I knew, of course, that we weren't the only onlookers watching the farce at the wedding Even if Vega hadn't videotaped everything and posted it online, the tabloid reporters wouldn't have missed such interesting news Aaron quickly cut off all channels, wanting to prevent the news from spreading. However, gossip about rich families always spread widely and quickly, and those gossipy ones rarely cared about the truth at all The story they preferred to hear was about a materialistic gold digger who abandoned her parents and boyfriend and forced the second son of the Morris family to marry her on the ground that she was pregnant with his baby. As for Cinder's righteous words that day? They probably mentioned nothing about it at all So now, the way people were looking at me was filled with disgust and disdain In their eyes, I was a lowly woman who was attached to power and petty, while the delicate and pitiful Vega had become the object of everyone's pity. They whispered and cursed at my malevolence, and at the same time, they secretly sighed that the beauty had not been loved by the talented man Of course, I didn't have to be sad simply because of those ignorant people's misinterpretation out of context, and I had no intention of proving myself over their accusations at all. As Charlotte looked anxious and tried to explain, I tugged at her fingers and motioned for her to leave with me However, my silence infuriated Vega undoubtedly, who angrily threw away the tissue soaked in wine and lunged forward to block my path Interestingly, when she opened her mouth, she didn't sound angry at all. On the contrary, there was a generous forgiveness in her sweet voice She said, "Mrs. Morris, whatever the grudge between us, you really don't have to take revenge on me on such an important occasion And I don't want to pursue it any further. If you want, we can have a drink together. Finish all this wine and we'll forget everything and be friends. As for my dress, you don't need to pay for it."

She pointed to the wine tower beside us which was made up of 25 full glasses of wine. The dark red wine was transparent and attractive under the light reflection The people around us began to whisper again, all praising how forgiving Vega was. I overheard someone blurt out the dress price, and then someone replied with disdain, "So what if it's expensive? Mr. Morris will pay for it anyway. She 1s after his money, isn't she? That's all she wants. A woman like her has no morals It's yust a pity Ms. Lorna is going to suffer."

I looked up in the direction of the man's voice, and he turned silent as soon as he met my eyes. I snorted, said nothing back, went straight to the wine tower Vega had pointed, and took the glass on the top Instantly, everyone was in an uproar It wasn't a secret that I was pregnant, and everyone assumed that I wouldn't drink and would use Aaron's money to solve the dilemma, so they latched on to it and mocked me. When I picked up the glass, they were all surprised Even Charlotte, who was right next to me, was terrified. She stomped her foot anxiously and grabbed my arm to stop me from drinking the wine. "Olive, your health isn't something to joke about. Let's go..."

I patted Charlotte to comfort her and said nothing. Then I broke free of her hand, stepped forward, and poured the wine over Vega's head "Tll never apologize for something I didn't do Well, since you want a new dress so badly, I'll have an exact one delivered to you tomorrow. I'll pay it out of the research fees your company is supposed to pay me "Also, I need to make it clear to everyone that I am Olive Woods before anything. I am a first-class researcher at TWH, and my daily salary is enough to afford a custom dress. Then I'm a mother about to have a baby. At last, I'm Mrs Morris you call me. Of all the identities I have, the one that seems most dispensable to me is precisely the last one."

After I said so, I tossed the glass away, turned around, and headed straight for the hotel lobby porch without glancing at anyone's reaction When I finally got some fresh air outside, I turned around, only to see Aaron leaning against the door, looking at me despondently
