Forgive Us, My Dear Sister

Chapter 276

Chapter 276 How Could She Be So Cruel?

After the recording was exposed, Salma faced criticism and became a hot topic of discussion.

Soon, her family called and scolded her for her actions.

Not long after, her mother-in-law called and reprimanded her as well.

In various social circles, people deliberately brought up the incident, mocking her for going too far as a

mother.

Some even directly questioned her, asking what she was thinking. How could she show such favoritism

toward her adopted daughter and suppress her biological daughter?

She felt as if her dignity had been stripped away and trampled on. So, she chose not to respond.

Already in a bad mood, her irritation grew when she heard Titus’ words.

She furrowed her brow and said, “What’s the point of saying these things now? Besides, it’s mainly

because of Andrew’s foolishness. Simone is heartless. She did this on purpose to embarrass us. I don’t

think this incident has much to do with Jo. Don’t blame everything on

her.”

She had raised Jodie for over ten years, treating her as her own daughter.

Jodie also treated her as a real mother, clinging to her and acting like a close companion.

Although Jodie’s behavior with her sons had crossed boundaries, she didn’t want to completely reject

Jodie. Doing so would be like denying the decision they made back then. So, even though she said she

wanted to send Jodie away, deep down, she wanted to give her at chance.

Her husband suggested keeping Jodie at home and monitoring her, and she agreed. They even hired a

tutor. They simply wanted to bring Jodie back.

When Titus saw his mother’s reaction, he knew that she hadn’t personally experienced being deceived

and hurt by Jodie. So, she wasn’t as hurt.

She still had feelings for Jodie and was willing to give her a chance.

This time, Simone was probably the one they were angry at because of the recording incident.

They felt that Simone shouldn’t have done this and made them lose their reputation. Titus didn’t say

much because it wouldn’t make a difference.

On the other hand. Steven also received a call from his father, who scolded him harshly.

He had always been outstanding since childhood. But it was the first time Owen had scolded him so

mercilessly.

In the family group chat, he was also mocked by his uncles and aunts.

At the company, many shareholders looked at him with strange eyes.

Even friends called specifically to ask about his family’s situation.

Steven was extremely angry and overwhelmed.

Meanwhile, he speculated that Simone had intentionally done this. The recording from before was

probably meant to go viral today.

Such a ruthless act showed no mercy at all.

Just as she wished, their whole family was criticized by netizens and made fun of by friends and

relatives.

At the same time, he felt that Simone truly lived up to her reputation as a member of the Gray Family.

Her attacks were precise and ruthless. It’s a pity that Simone cut ties with them; otherwise, he would

have wanted to groom her to work for the Gray Group.

This incident gave him a headache and made him extremely annoyed.

So, on that day, he had his secretary book a flight ticket and went abroad for an inspection. However,

he intensified the investigation into Jodie and the two masters.

At Gray Entertainment.

Reuben went through a similar ordeal as well. First, he received a call from his grandpa and was

scolded.

Then, in the family group chat, he became the laughingstock of his cousins.

The same thing happened at the company, where he received many strange looks

As he passed by several places in the company, he overheard people discussing this matter

This time, it wasn’t just a few siblings who lost their reputation, he was not spared either So. be found

an excuse to fly to another city on a business trip

He planned to return only when the heat died down. Because he was unable to afford the loss

of reputation.

His feelings toward Simone became even more complicated because of this.

How can she be so ruthless?

This time, she didn’t spare any mercy for them. At the same time, he scolded Andrew, who was a fool

more likely to cause trouble than succeed.

In Cubilis.

Andrew sneezed several times in a row, knowing he was definitely being criticized due to Simone’s

unexpected actions.

Upon standing beside Jodie with a solemn face, he didn’t utter a word.

The director didn’t want the awkward atmosphere to continue either.

The number of viewers in the live broadcast room reached a new high.

He smiled and said, “Next, let’s move on to the main topic. I believe everyone is familiar with Cubilis. It

is a city that preserves ancient culture. Later, we will give everyone a new makeover, dressing you in

the ancient costumes you like. This time, your task is to explore the ancient city with a pair of eyes that

can discover and take the live audience on a tour together. Of course, the rules remain the same. For

the next week, you will be responsible for your own food, accommodation, and transportation. We will

assign you check-in tasks, and you need to check in at different times. This time, we will still be working

in teams.”

Just as he finished speaking. Zac raised his hand and asked, “Can we have free team formation this

time? I want to be on Simone’s team.”

Simone was in high demand, and he wanted to join her team right away.

Others also realized this and raised their hands one after another, saying, “I also want to be on

Simone’s team.”

Except for the Gray brothers, Jodie, and Leon, everyone else expressed their desire to be on Simone’s

team.

It was not that Aaron and Leon didn’t want to, but they knew Simone wouldn’t choose them.

Upon seeing this, Jonah smirked and said, “It seems like everyone wants to be in Simone’s group

Then he changed the subject and said, “But I regret to inform you all that this time, we can’t form teams

freely

Previously, they had formed teams freely twice. If they did it again this time, things wouldn’t be fresh or

interesting.

Zac asked in disbelief, “Why not?”

He wanted to be in Simone’s team. Does anything go wrong?

Jonah replied, “Many viewers have given feedback suggesting that for this episode, the teams. should

be decided by drawing lots. They say it will bring more variety and make it more interesting for all of

you. So, after the show’s team conducted research, we decided to follow the viewers’ suggestions. The

teams for this time will be decided by drawing lots.”

This way, the finale of this variety show would bring more interesting changes and attract more viewers.

Zac and the others were left speechless. The director’s decision in the final episode was truly

heartless.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

They cared about the feedback from the viewers? It is evident that the team made the decision.

However, since the team had made the decision, there was nothing they could do about it. All they

could do was silently pray, hoping to be chosen for Simone’s team.

Even Aaron and Leon were filled with excitement this time. They were silently praying as well.

Zac asked, “Do we draw lots ourselves?”

Jonah smiled and replied, “To ensure fairness this time, we will play a game using a large roulette

wheel to determine the teams.”

Everyone was a bit puzzled. “A large roulette wheel to determine the teams?”

Jonah signaled to his assistant.

Soon, the assistant brought in a large roulette wheel with its base.

The wheel had 12 slots, each bearing the name of a guest. In order, they were Simone, Zac, Leon,

Ethan, Eric, Keira, Brandon, Aaron, Jodie, Andrew, and Tina.

There were eleven guests and twelve slots on the roulette wheel. One of the slots had the word

“mystery” on it.
