Chapter 53 End Up Miserable
The engagement banquet was held at the Spencer’s house. The banquet was very luxurious. Tonya and Brandon’s relatives and friends all
came.
Julia and Tonya escaped from the award ceremony. They were both injured and fled back to the Spencer’s house.
As soon as Tonya saw the romantic engagement banquet scene, she gritted her teeth in hatred.
The journalists she invited had already watched the live broadcast of the award ceremony. They were about to interview Tonya.
George came down from the second–floor conference room. Seeing Julia and Tonya back, he immediately asked excitedly, “You won the first prize. Are you going to have the engagement ceremony now? Where is Brandon? And Mrs. Hodge and the elderly people from the Hodge family…”
Tonya kept trembling and sulkily hid behind Julia.
Julia saw George’s unusually excited face. She knew George wanted to save face. The engagement banquet for today was already ruined. But Julia didn’t dare to tell the truth. She glanced at the guests attending the banquet and anxiously said, “George, come here. The engagement can wait. I have another matter to discuss with you…”
“What do you have to say later!” George exclaimed excitedly. He frowned. “I’ve been waiting all morning. The bosses of the Spencer Group, who said they would invest a few days ago, haven’t shown up at all? My daughter is about to marry into the Hodge family, let’s see who dares to neglect me! I’m going to urge them.”

“George!” Julia didn’t want him to make the phone call.
George had already picked up the landline and urged boastfully, “Mr. Mewis, my daughter has won first prize. Please come and join us for the engagement banquet, and let’s sign our contracts while you’re here.”
The other party remained silent.
After a long time, Mr. Mewis sneered, “Mr. Spencer, haven’t you seen the news? Your daughter made such a fool of herself at the award ceremony. And you still want to deceive us into investing. Don’t you know that Mrs. Hodge has publicly called off her engagement with Mr. Brandon?”
“What?” George was stunned.
He turned his head and stared at Julia behind him.
“George, listen to me. It was Isabelle who framed us…
George pushed Julia abruptly and immediately grabbed his phone to check the news.
The news was filled with Tonya’s stories. She plagiarized. She bribed the SJ Group and was publicly exposed by Warren. Tonya was divorced by the Hodge family. The media also reported that George was incompetent in teaching his daughter, which was a scandal involving the Spencer Group.
George’s neck veins bulged, and he felt embarrassed.
“George!” Julia screamed.
She was dragged down from the second floor by George.
Tonya stood at the entrance of the first floor, trembling all over. She

knew George’s temper well. He was very concerned about his reputation and valued his own interests. Just now, Julia had kept something from him, and now George was furious. Tonya didn’t have time to hide and was also caught by George’s grip.
George was furious, thinking about the reputation of the Spencer Group that he cared about the most. Just now, Mr. Mewis had insulted him over the phone. He felt like a fool, being deceived by Julia and Tonya.
George threw them to the ground. He didn’t care about the presence of so many relatives and journalists and angrily slapped Julia’s face. “You two caused such a big scandal at the awards ceremony, and you still wanted to hide it from me!”
I was eagerly waiting for them to invest. You scoundrel, do you know how much money I borrowed from the bank these days! Now Tonya’s engagement has been canceled. You can’t even educate your own daughter. You only know how to embarrass me. If I had known you two were so useless, I should have confined you during the charity banquet last time!”
George had long been dissatisfied with Julia. She had always lost to Isabelle and had once been a porn star.
George had been patient for a long time. Today, a big scandal happened, so he vented all his anger on them!
Julia’s face was swollen from being slapped. Tonya saw that all their relatives and friends were watching and gossiping. She had never experienced such humiliation before. Tonya angrily said, “Dad, how could you say such things about mom? She has devoted herself to the Spencer family all these years. Why don’t you mention the things that we have done to bring honor to our family? You are heartless and only care about the Spencer Group!”

“You dare to talk back. Look at what you have done?” George was furious and slapped her again.
“You were just a woman. You were useless.”

“You just complained that I didn’t give birth to a boy for you. George, you are mean, narrow–minded, and superficial!” Julia didn’t refuse to have more children, but her body suffered significant damage during her early years in the entertainment industry. She could no longer conceive.
“Shut up!” George roared angrily.
George only just noticed that his relatives, friends, and journalists were all watching him hit his wife and daughter.
George drove everyone away and then slumped onto the couch. He soon received a call from the company. “Mr. Spencer, the shares of the Spencer Group are falling.”
“Ms. Tonya’s news couldn’t be suppressed. The media was reporting…”
George’s face turned pale. He rushed out of the house. “You have caused a great disaster. If the Spencer Group is harmed, I will not let you get away with it!”
Julia and Tonya sat on the carpet. They both had a handprint on their faces. They hugged each other and cried in pain.
Losing to Isabelle this time made it difficult for them to rise again.
“Mom, why would Mr. Levine help that bitch Isabelle?” Tonya was furious, but she couldn’t understand. “Rumors say that Mr. Levine is from the famous Levine family! How could Isabelle possibly get involved with such a prominent figure?”
Julia couldn’t understand either.

Tonya’s face turned pale as she took out her phone. Many people had sent her private messages on her Twitter account, cursing at her.
She saw a hot topic. Some netizens initiated a crowdfunding campaign, urging people to contribute one cent each to buy Tonya a prison uniform and send this plagiarist to jail!
A surprising 80,000 people participated in this crowdfunding. Tonya was so angry that she almost fainted.
“Haha, netizens are really enthusiastic!” Glenda stared at her Twitter post, which received many comments.
Isabelle glanced at its contents and said, “You’re already retaliating so quickly.”
“After all, the internet is my domain,” Glenda typed away on the keyboard, quickly turning Tonya’s negative news into a trending topic.
She sneered, “Bella, today Mr. Levine turned the tide for you. We should seize this opportunity. It’s my turn to show my skills next. I won’t let Brandon, Tonya, and the Spencer family off the hook. I will make Luck Jewelry and the Spencer Group fall into chaos!”
The company’s business and stocks were both affected by the news.
Isabelle squinted her eyes and let Glenda carry out her plan.
Only by expanding the influence of the news, did the shareholders who mocked Luck Jewelry feel uneasy. Tonya’s plagiarism incident damaged the reputation of Luck Jewelry. When the stock prices declined, the shareholders would abandon Tonya one after another. By then, Isabelle would be able to regain control of the company.
She glanced at the news about the Spencer’s house. Julia and Tonya

got slapped and fell to the ground. George left immediately.
Isabelle sneered. She had anticipated this situation. Based on George’s nature, he would immediately discard anything that had lost its value.
Isabelle turned the steering wheel. Glenda looked at the road and asked, “Where are you going?”

“I want to go home. L might have come back.”
“Don’t go home. Let’s go out and have fun! It’s a big day today. We have to drink at least three hundred bottles of wine to celebrate,” Glenda rolled her eyes. “Besides, L didn’t help you either. You should be with Mr. Levine. Why don’t you ask Mr. Levine out?”
Isabelle remembered the flirtation just now and immediately shook her head. “Although Warren is not irredeemable, this kind of man is too dangerous, I cannot get close to him!”
“He only helped you once, so he is not unforgivable. Between him and L, who do you prefer? You’re really lucky. Both of them are
exceptional men,” Glenda teased her.
