Chapter 12
At the police station’s entrance, Hugo couldn’t hold back any longer. “Evangeline, your family is too biased. Their minds are abnormal. My goodness, listening to them makes my fists clench. If we weren’t at the police station. I’d want to shut their mouths with a beating!”
Steven said, “I also think there’s something wrong with their minds Evangeline was the one who was hurt, yet they didn’t utter a word of concern. Instead, they accuse her of being malicious. They think the person who pushed someone off the cliff is kind and the one who was pushed is evil. Do they have a different moral compass
Finnegan chimed in. “Did that girl Meghan save their lives? Why are they so protective of her? For an adopted daughter, they don’t care about the life and death of their biological daughter. They even continuously humiliate their biological daughter for the sake of the adopted one. It’s something a normal person won’t do!”
All three were furious, displaying disdain and anger when discussing the Gallagher family.
Meanwhile, Evangeline’s gaze darkened.
She wondered how the Gallagher family could be brainwashed to such an extent.
Even after they saw Meghan’s true colors, they still wanted to defend her.
Arthur cast a sympathetic gaze at Evangeline. “Have they always treated you like this at the Gallagher residence?”
Evangeline shrugged and said indifferently, “More or less, but I don’t care about their attitude toward me anymore
Then, Arthur spoke in a low voice. “It’s okay. You’ll meet people who genuinely love you in the future. Those kinds of family members, you’re better off without
She checked the time and said, “I’m going to Superb Entertainment to terminate my contract”
Arthur nodded. “Okay Ill go with your
Hugo chuckled. “I’m going too. I’m rivals with Edward. Due to Meghan’s incident, no one in the industry dares to cooperate with him. They’re coming to me for collaborations now, and I want to mock him!”
Evangeline didn’t mind.
She was okay with them following her. After all, she wouldn’t be the one humiliated.
Evangeline contacted the boyer who notarized her contract and brought the documents to Superb Entertainment.
Edward had someone take Evangeline to the conference room.
After quite some time, Edward arrived, looking displeased.
When he pushed open the conference room door, his face turned dark. Six people were sitting in the room, and his expression instantly darkened. Among the six people, Arthur was the archenemy of the Gallagher family, infiltrating the Gallagher Croup’s internal affairs. He had become a thom in the side of the Gallagher family.
Since Evangeline sold Callagher Group’s shares to Arthur, they cursed him daily whenever they had the time, wishing him ill,
On the other hand, Hugo was his business rival.
Hugo owned an entertainment company as well. The two companies often competed for resources, celebrities, and management personnel, leading to a strained relationship.
Steven and Finnegan had no direct dispute with the Gallagher family.
However, as friends of Arthur and Hugo, the Gallagher family disliked them too,
Edward entered with a sullen face, scanning the room with an unpleasant gaze before finally landing on Evangeline.
His feelings toward her, his biological younger sister, were complicated.
At first, he felt sympathetic when he discovered that Meghan was causing trouble for Evangeline behind the scenes
However, as the livestream progressed, the netizens supported Evangeline. Negative public opinion targeted the Gallagher family and their businesses, causing significant darnage. Hence, he began to resent Evangeline.

Chapter 42
All the businesses under the Gallagher Group were affected, with only the tangible businesses suffering slightly less.
However, his entertainment company was hit severely
It was almost devastating
Almost all the celebrities signed with his agency were attacked by angry netizens.
Fans boycotted not only Meghan but also all the celebrities under his company,
When a celebrity went to an event, they were surrounded and scolded. The scene was a mess.
Many business partners rushed to terminate contracts and demanded compensation.
Some celebrities who were filming were also kicked off their film crews.
Besides, endorsement deals for his celebrities were canceled.
His company was now in a state of complete shutdown.
If this crisis wasn’t resolved quickly, the company faced the risk of bankruptcy.
However, it would be hard to get through such a severe crisis.
All this was caused by Evangeline
“Come with me to the office. What we need to discuss is an internal
“Why did you bring so many people here?” Edward said with a stern face, “C master and should not have outsiders present
Hugo smirked. “It’s just contract termination, not some top–secret matter. Why can’t there be outsiders? Are you planning to threaten Evangeline by seeing her alone?
Edward’s face changed, and he looked at Hugo coldly. “Don’t judge others by your standards. Evangeline is my sister. Why would I threaten her?”
Upon hearing that, Evangeline corrected him indifferently. “Since the day 1 severed ties with the Gallagher family, I warned you not to associate with me. I’m not your sister anymore.”
Edward’s face darkened. “Even if you don’t admit it, it won’t change the fact we share the same blood
Enraged, Evangeline forcefully kicked over a chair.
The chair flew toward Edward and hit his foo
“Ah!” Edward screamed in pain and squatted down to hold his foot. His face was twisted with pain. Evangeline said impatiently, “You’re behaving the way you did because you think I won’t get mad, right?” She added, “If you dare to provoke me again, I will drain your blood. Let’s check if we really are related!” Edward trembled with pain, and beads of sweat formed on his forehead.
Upon hearing Evangeline’s words, he nearly had a heart attack from anger.
He thought. She’s way out of line..
Tm her brother!
“How could she do this to me?
“She not only lacked a conscience but also any trace of humanity!
