The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 559

“Look, it wasn’t her fault, okay? Blame me, it’s all on me... If you must lash out at someone, let it be me, but leave my daughter out of this. Allison’s done nothing wrong,” Grace pleaded with a sense of urgency, desperate to shield her daughter from the barrage of accusations. In her heart, there was only Allison, and the overwhelming desire to protect her.

But what Grace didn’t realize was that she had stumbled right into Penelope’s carefully laid trap.

The media wasn’t there to help her. Instead, they were pushing Allison further into a corner, from which there seemed to be no escape.

Sophie pounced on the opportunity. “Ma’am, you just said it’s all your fault, and your girl is innocent. Is there something we’re not seeing here?”

“It’s because of me, all because of me,” Grace stammered. The tears were staining her cheeks. “I’ve been sick. I needed a kidney transplant. Allison, she did what she had to because of my illness. It’s my health that’s dragged her down. If you’re gonna blame anyone, blame me, not my daughter!”

The video feed showed Grace. Her eyes were brimming with tears. She was dressed simply, speaking up for her daughter.

A mother was pleading for mercy on behalf of her child.

Without any edits, Sophie immediately uploaded the original footage to the Internet. Once posted, it went viral, shared by tens of thousands. It rocketed up the trending charts.

Allison sat in the car, which was parked clandestinely behind a side entrance of Epic Entertainment. She hoped to avoid the press, but the reporters had been lying in wait. As soon as she stepped out, they swarmed her.

Microphones were thrust forward, and the questions came rapid-fire.

“Allison, it’s been 36 hours since the scandal broke and you’ve been silent. Does that mean you’re admitting to it?”
