Selena’s aunt became anxious when she heard this.
She immediately looked at Selena and reprimanded her.
“Why are you so ignorant? Can’t you understand what we’re telling you? You’re supposed to pay them the compensation. Otherwise, they can sue you!”
The aunt wanted to scare Selena.
Selena sneered and raised her voice.
“Go ahead and sue me then. Why should I be afraid? I don’t have money. The agreement stipulates that I have to pay the compensation, but the agreement also didn’t include the alimony or share of the property that I’m supposed to get from the divorce. Moreover, it doesn’t stipulate when I have to pay him back. So, let me tell you this. I plan to wait a hundred years before paying them! Come back again after a hundred years!”
Selena’s aunt, Flora, and others were all shocked.
Selena looked at her aunt. Her eyes were red, and her voice was extremely cold and sinister.
“Also, I didn’t see you standing up for me when I was almost beaten to death by the Nortons. Now, you’re asking me to admit my fault and pay them for your own benefit? Auntie, have some shame! I was lucky that I wasn’t beaten to death, so don’t try to morally kidnap me. The Nortons are all atrocious people!”
The aunt was overwhelmed by Selena’s temper.
She was speechless for a while.
Flora stomped over angrily. “Did you just say that my family is atrocious?!”
She reached out to slap Selena, but Selena firmly grabbed her wrist.
Flora was weak, and she was all bark and no bite.
She only knew how to enjoy life and did not exercise. Thus, she fell sick every year and always relied on supplements.
How could she win a fight?
Flora glanced at Selena in shock. Her eyes were burning with fury.
Selena grabbed her wrist tightly until Flora winced in pain.
She looked at Flora indifferently with a creepy chill.
“Flora, if you dare to be like your son and touch a strand of my hair, I will make sure that you end up like your son!”
Selena pushed Flora away violently. Flora staggered backward and fell on the sofa behind her.
Flora was humiliated.
She thought about what Derek looked like now and shuddered all over.
Flora raised her head abruptly.
“Do you think you’re above the law? Derek is paralyzed because of you! The three of us will have no one to rely on in the future, so who else can we look for if not you?!”
The corner of Selena’s mouth twitched.
“I don’t want my alimony anymore. You can treat it as your compensation. Selling Derek’s company is enough for you to live the rest of your life without worries.”
Flora was dissatisfied with this conclusion.
To her, Selena should go bankrupt and compensate them with everything she had.
It did not matter to Flora who was right or wrong, or whose responsibility it was.
Derek’s life was precious, so Selena should support them for the rest of their lives and treat them like a king. Selena should be a slave to them!
Flora did not want Derek’s sacrifice to be in vain.
She wanted to struggle to get up, but the influencer timidly stood up and held her mobile phone.
“Ms. Nelson, you can’t be such a big bully! How could you do this to the victim’s family?”
Selena looked at her the same way she looked at Flora. “Derek didn’t marry you, did he? Are you considered his family then?”
The influencer’s face froze slightly, and she looked embarrassed.
Derek was a shrewd man.
He was only willing to be with the influencer because she was well-behaved and sensible and would not go against his wishes.
However, she was not qualified to be his wife because she would get a cut of his family property.
