Chapter 027 Confession

Crack!

A clap of thunder sounded from the dark blue sky. As if the thunder had struck Eliza’s forehead, the already unstable diamond crown fell with a clatter.

The rain that had been stifled for the entire morning poured down, and the

crowd dispersed. Eliza stood on the rooftop motionlessly, looking in despair at the cold figure of Owen who had left without any attachment.

Back then, he used to shelter her from the difficulties. But now, he stopped

sheltering her no matter what she had encountered. Only now did Eliza realize her mistake of breaking up with Owen back then.

Now, she had finally paid the price for her unrestrained self in those three years abroad.

A wedding that had almost become a farce ended in the heavy rain. Although the guests had not been able to witness a perfect, romantic wedding, they got to watch a good show. It could be considered a worthwhile trip and worth the money back for the gifts. The Moores did not feel humiliated. After all, they wished to cancel this wedding. As long as Owen did not marry the daughter of the Browns, they would be happy and would not mind the gossip of others. No one would dare to gossip in front of the Moores.

Moreover, Hailey was back. To them, this was something worth being happy

about.

In contrast, the Browns were upset. The successive little episodes at the wedding made Eliza a monkey on a stand, and the Browns were humiliated. Soon, they would become the laughing stock of the wealthy families in North City. “This is ridiculous! We’re an intellectual family. I can’t believe that we raise a daughter like you! Eliza, you put shame on us!” Mr. Brown was so angry that he paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back. Pointing at Eliza’s nose, he chided her harshly, and the

golden-framed glasses on his nose bounced. Meanwhile, Eliza sat on the bed and kept crying. She was still wearing the wedding dress, which was already dirty. The skirt was stained as if symbolizing her turning from a piece of white paper in Owen’s eyes to a newspaper “Alright, alright. Stop blaming Eliza. This is not her fault.” Just then, Mrs. Brown advised from the side.

However, Mr. Brown snorted coldly. “It’s all because you spoil her too much!

shouldn’t have listened to you about that ‘poor raise sons, rich raise daughters’ crap. We put so much money into raising Eliza, but in the end, she can’t even get married into a wealthy family. What’s the use of raising her?!” Being blamed, Mrs. Brown grew annoyed. “Oh, you’re starting to blame me now. I didn’t ask you to spoil her! It was your precious little sister, Maya, who keeps talking about marrying into a wealthy family! Eliza was led astray by Maya!” “Enough!”

Right then, Eliza screamed and covered her ears. “I’m already very upset. Can you stop talking?”

Before Mr. Brown could say anything else, his phone rang. It was his sister, Maya.

“It’s your aunt!” Mr. Brown and Maya exchanged a few words before handing the phone to

Eliza. With a choked voice, Eliza called, “Aunt Maya.” Then, she heard a lazy, cold voice coming from the other side of the line. “What are you crying for? Are you ready to give up just after a little setback like this?” “What can I do?” Eliza cried in despair, “He blamed me for lying to him. He said I was dirty and didn’t want me back.”

Hearing that, Maya snorted. “No matter how dirty a woman is, a man is always

dirtier. Anyway, this is not important. As long as you can firmly control his heart, he will not abandon you.” “Aunt Maya, what should I do now?” Eliza had completely lost her direction. In

the past, she could influence Owen easily. But now, he was becoming more and more out of her control, not to mention that he was about to leave her. “Well, Owen must be angry still. When he calms down, you can go and explain it

to him. As for his ex-wife, Hailey Byrne, we have underestimated her. But don’t worry. I will help you to take revenge one day!”

In the meantime, Hailey decided to send Polly back. Sitting in the wedding carriage that was decorated with flowers, Hailey felt a little ridiculous. She was way too responsible for her ex-husband. She even escorted him at his wedding.

The wedding carriage was an extra long Lincoln. There were enough seats. Both Gene and Benson got into the car, and Benson had not stopped talking since then. As he leaned in to the front seat, he kept asking Hailey all kinds of questions.

“Hailey, where have you been these past few days? We have been looking for

you everywhere. Owen checked all the surveillance cameras in this area, but we couldn’t find any trace of you. Also, did you really fly that helicopter yourself? You actually know how to fly a plane! When did you learn that? Why didn’t you tell us? Could you take me for a ride in the sky?”

With a faint smile, Hailey responded, “Sure, but it’s raining today. We can’t fly.

Let’s do it another day.” “Great! Hailey, you’re the best!”

Meanwhile, Owen glanced at Benson, who was so happy that he was dancing

with joy, and chided silently, “Stop kissing up to her.” Owen slapped Benson on the butt hard. “Sit tight!” Being met with Owen’s dignified gaze, Benson immediately became obedient. Owen sat in the second row and quietly glanced at the back row. His eyes met Hailey’s. With an indifferent look, Hailey sat upright next to Polly, and the

former’s imposing manner did not lose in the slightest.

Owen furrowed his brows. Ever since he and Hailey divorced, Hailey suddenly became a different person. Her temperament was completely different from before.

The way she looked at him was no longer fearful or expectant. It was as if she

was looking at a stranger. Somehow, this made him uncomfortable and stuffy. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

On the other hand, Polly and Gene also had a lot of questions that they wanted to ask Hailey. Just then, Hailey said, “I’ll explain when we get home.” She had concealed her identity for three years, and it was finally the time to reveal it.

The Moores gathered in the hall with their gaze on Hailey, waiting for her to explain Standing in the middle of the hall, Hailey scanned around the crowd. With a calm expression, she revealed, “Guys, I

would like to apologize first. My real name is Hailey Newman, and I’m from Poya.” She bowed to express her apology, and her attitude was neither servile nor overbearing. The elders were sitting, whereas the young people were all standing. In the meantime, Owen was standing not far away from Hailey. He looked at her profile as she confessed her identity. Although he already knew about it, the moment she said it, he was still a little surprised. Naturally, the Moores were shocked as they had been kept in the dark.

“Poya?” With a look of astonishment and bewilderment, Wade Moore stared at Hailey and asked, “Are you the daughter of the Newmans from Poya?”

Although the surname Newman was common, one would often associate it with the Newmans when Poya was mentioned.

“Yes, I’m the daughter of the Newmans. Scott Newman was my father,”

answered Hailey frankly with a nod.
