After Mrs. Aiden's words, there was silence all around, and no one dared to speak.
People had seen favoritism, but never to this extent!
The entire Aiden Family clearly treated Ella Jackson as their precious darling, and at this moment, no one dared to point out Ella's faults, which would be tantamount to a falling out with the Aidens.
Even if someone wanted to discredit Ella, they had to weigh their own strength against the challenge of opposing the Aiden Family.
Suddenly, those who had been hurling insults at Ella moments ago were now silent, all eyes turning to Milla Terrence, who looked like a buffoon on stage.
Ella's slap was more effective than any defense; those who had been one-sided against her were now beginning to doubt Milla.
Ella dared to strike in front of everyone, one slap or two made no significant difference – she had no reason to deny it.
But what if that earlier slap wasn't by her, but a self-directed act by Milla herself?
