Chapter 1041 The Hatred Deepens
‘Why not? We, the Twelve Knights, aren’t that bad! We are one of the top-notch bands in the world.’ ‘That was true back then, but after what happened… I’m sorry, but I don’t have any good impression on you guys.’
The netizens did not hide their disapproval of Twelve Knights’ decision to invite Eunice. They even leverage it to counter the band’s fans, who were exasperated and blurted, ‘Who invited Eunice? She claimed that she wished to join them in the first place!’
However, that comment incurred more backlashes from the netizens. ‘Do they accept whoever that volunteers? They do keep to their rules accordingly. I can see how they will be ousted sooner or later.’
Eunice almost choked on her food when she personally read those comments. “Since when do I wish to join them? It’s Kussen, that old fogey, who kept inviting me! Look at these comments! How is Tessa Reinhart better than me? Ridiculous!”
In the meantime, Susan almost lost her cool at the hospital. Ironically, as the victim of the whole case, she might be imprisoned.
Meanwhile, Eunice was doing fine as the culprit. Even if Sofia had dismissed her, she was going to join another first-class band soon, let alone Tessa, who was perfectly fine.
“No way. How can they be fine?!” shrieked Susan in the patient room. She could never tolerate how Hathaway stood up for Tessa as it was out of her expectation.
“And that ‘lovely’ mother of mine. Has she forgotten how I almost lost my life?!” She gritted her teeth as her eyes flashed deep hatred.
Rorion, who was standing right there, had his brows furrowed. Similar to Susan, he was equally displeased by how Hathaway took Tessa’s side.
Now that Hathaway had nothing to do with Tessa, he could not understand why she would care for Tessa instead of their own daughter.
At that moment, Susan’s menacing and murderous voice resounded in his ears again. “Tessa Reinhart, Eunice. I will never let you guys get away from this!”
Noticing that abnormal gaze of hers, Rorion began to worry about her ambition to exact revenge without taking her recovery into consideration. “Leave ’em to me. All you gotta do is to take care of yourself so that you can start anew.”
Susan saw eye-to-eye with her father. Right, that’s way more important. Once I get better, I’ll can take my time to take my sweet revenge on those b*tches!
Nicholas knew of the articles posted online too. He intended to discipline Eunice for tampering Tessa’s name, yet the issue was unexpectedly settled before he could take action.
Still, he had no plans to let Eunice off the hook that easily.
Recalling the matter Edward was looking into, Nicholas called him over. “Have you found the child kidnapped by Walter?”
As he looked at the deadpan face of his superior, Edward reported the progress guiltily, “N-Not yet.”
He and his men had been checking on the surveillance footage during the past two days, but there were no leads of the child’s whereabouts.
Nicholas’ brows creased as he had not foreseen the stagnant progress. After a moment of pondering, he ordered coldly, “If that’s the case, ask someone to keep an eye on Walter.”
Edward nodded in response before leaving to make arrangements.
On the account that her son had not returned for the past three days with no updates from Edward, a distressed Evan visited Soren in jail.
When Soren found out that his son was being held captive still, rage laced with concern channeled in him as he requested to see Walter at that instant.
“I’ve done everything as you said. When are you going to let go of my son?!” roared Soren as soon as he saw Walter.
However, Walter remained languid. “It’s not over yet. Everyone’s talking about it out there. I’m worried that you’ll change your mind too, so I’ll let him go when it’s completely over.”
“That’s not what you’ve promised!” Despite the ire, Soren could not do anything to Walter.
