Chapter 62: Defense

The room buzzed with gossip and mockery chuckles as the journalists proudly took their seats. They were so excited for delivering the first part of their mission.

Leon glared at the journalists as a poisonous rage enveloped him. His heart hardened and his pulse quickened. A devilish thought crossed his mind and he smirked. He guessed rightly, that this premature stunt was Chloe's handiwork. He took a deep breath to calm his raging heart and waited patiently for Ella to handle herself in public.

Ella smiled proudly as she waited for the murmuring to seize. She had prepared herself mentally for the worst form of questions. She knew that there would be haters; who would want to crucify her for her sudden wealth. But she was unperturbed by their hurtful questions. She will defend her honor, even with her last blood.
