All Chapters of Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford: Chapter 581 - Chapter 590

Sean laughed heartily. "Young people have their common language; that's a good thing. The two of them grew up together, so helping each other is only natural. Desmond is the boy. He should take good care of Margaret."Margaret beamed. "Desmond has always been so kind. We bickered growing up, but that's just how childhood sweethearts are.""Childhood sweethearts! Perfect!" Sean roared with laughter.Meanwhile, Joyce was already discussing wedding plans with Margaret's mother, Tiffany Shaw."Margaret comes from such a distinguished family and has been so well brought up," Joyce praised. "She's outstanding in every way. I've had my eye on her for a long time. I only hope we're not reaching too high."Tiffany grinned from ear to ear. "What matters is that they like each other. We're not old-fashioned parents."The marriage was open for discussion, but Margaret was worried. Given his volatile personality, Desmond might explode there and then.If he declared he would never marry her,

In the banquet hall, Margaret's hand shook as she held her phone.The netizens were demanding proof. Since she claimed she had spent five years honing this piece, she should produce the evidence.Margaret was certain this was a coordinated effort by paid trolls. She had used the same tactics before; now the boomerang had returned.The glittering banquet was a vanity fair. When someone stood on top, everyone flattered them. But when an opportunity arose to pull them down, many would be happy to grab it.Right there in the hall, someone spoke up. "Miss Shaw, the netizens are right. Produce the evidence and fight back."Margaret glared at the speaker, who sounded like he was on her side, but he clearly just wanted to watch her crash and burn.Tiffany frowned. Before she could say anything, Margaret's friends jumped in with their scoldings."I'm just standing up for Miss Shaw," the man said innocently. "She is so talented after all. How can we let someone sling mud at her? She needs

Sean and Desmond were both stunned by her bold plan.Margaret shook Erik's shoulders excitedly. "Dad, let's offer her a sum she can't refuse."Erik seriously considered it, but Sean was skeptical. "Are you sure she'll take the money?""She's just a poor student," Margaret said arrogantly. "Don't talk to me about principles. Principles only hold when the money isn't enough.""It might be worth a shot," Erik agreed. "Even if she demands a fortune, we'll pay it."Desmond simply sat there laughing."What's so funny?" Margaret scowled."Well..." he continued laughing. "You can't afford what she wants.""It's just money," Margaret sneered. "We can afford anything she asks for. Anything that can be solved with money isn't a problem."Desmond sighed inwardly. The events in Soliaridge two years ago clearly hadn't left much impression on the Arelmoor elite, but he didn't bother warning her again.Even Sean stayed quiet this time, perhaps eager to see their humiliation.Determined to p

But when Desmond reached her dorm, Rebecca had already gone back to Soliaridge. He chased her there, only to learn she was getting married.He was always late until fate finally gave him a chance to win her back. Yet in the end, he messed up.If only during the Edinburgh Festival he had shown up sooner instead of being so stubborn, maybe she could have forgiven him.If on the night she was attacked, he had gone to pick her up before Vance, maybe she wouldn't have broken up with him.If he had spoken up sooner this time, swooping in like a superhero to clear away the rumors, maybe she would have forgiven him.But he had missed that last chance, too. Not only had he failed to descend like a hero, but he had even tried to pressure her. Throughout the long stretch of online abuse, he had essentially been an accomplice.He was late again. Yet even so, he had to carry out his plan.He picked out several videos and drafted a post, typing and deleting it repeatedly until only a few conc

Margaret soon posted something even more irreversible.[I, Margaret Shaw, take full responsibility. Yes, I stole the concept for Phoenix in Flight from Rebecca Perry. I'll own what I did. From now on, I'll never perform on stage again, and I'll compensate Rebecca for all her losses.[I apologize to her for the harm caused by the online attacks. I'm willing to face legal consequences. To all the dancers who performed in Phoenix in Flight, thank you, and I'm sorry. I won't be able to dance with you anymore.[I hope other troupes will evaluate you fairly based on your professional skills. The plagiarism and my personal issues with Rebecca are my problem alone. It has nothing to do with them.]Tiffany nearly fainted.Once that was posted, no PR team could salvage it, unless they claimed Margaret had mental issues. But they couldn't bear to say that about the daughter they had spoiled since childhood.Erik came over, noticed his wife's pale face, and asked what was wrong. Tiffany wipe
