Chapter 236: Chapter 236
Seeing Eleanor Sterling again, Faye Sterling was furious and gritted her teeth.
Why did that report become about her and George Sterling? She had clearly released the result showing Estelle Sterling and President Warren.
Faye Sterling’s eyes were red as she gritted her teeth and questioned Eleanor Sterling, "It was you, wasn’t it? You switched the test results!"
Hearing this, Eleanor Sterling chuckled, "How come I didn’t know I had such great capabilities?"
Faye Sterling had a face full of resentment. Although she said this, she really didn’t think Eleanor Sterling was capable of replacing the Faulkner Laboratory’s test results.
So where was the problem?
Old Master Sterling’s face was livid, feeling that today’s events had utterly disgraced the Sterling Family.
He looked at George Sterling and said, "Gregory, whether you divorce or not, you must resolve the damage to the Sterling Family’s reputation caused by this."
George Sterling was breathing heavily, how could he possibly resolve this? Unless he swallowed his pride and, as Faye Sterling suggested, publicly declared the test a fake.
But if he really did that, he would feel too wronged, and there was no way he could swallow this insult.
He clenched his fists and his body trembled.
Rosalie Ray knew she couldn’t provoke George Sterling right now, so she remained silent at the side.
She knew that George Sterling wouldn’t do anything to her, nor would he divorce her; she had leverage over George Sterling.
Because of this, she was fearless.
Just as George Sterling was about to speak, Eleanor Sterling suddenly said coldly, "If you want a divorce, there is a way; I can help you handle the scandals."
With those words, both Faye Sterling and Rosalie Ray exploded.
Faye Sterling pointed at Eleanor Sterling’s nose and started yelling, "Eleanor Sterling! What do you mean?
Are you hoping for mom and dad to divorce? What a malicious thought you have!"
Eleanor Sterling sneered, "No matter how malicious I am, I’m not as malicious as Ms. Ray who deceived my father for over twenty years."
One sentence, like stepping on Rosalie Ray’s sore spot, made her stare viciously at Eleanor Sterling.
Old Master Sterling couldn’t be bothered to watch them tear at each other; he irritably urged, "Gregory, make a decision as soon as possible."
Martin Sterling chuckled and said, "Exactly, Gregory, you should think carefully, this concerns the reputation of our Sterling Family."
Seeing George Sterling being so stubborn, Martin Sterling naturally hoped he wouldn’t divorce.
At this moment, Faye Sterling stepped forward, hugged George Sterling’s arm, and said, "Dad, even if I’m not your daughter,
I’ve always regarded you as my father all these years. Could you really bear to..."
As she spoke, she was already in tears, looking pitiful with a weepy face.
After raising her since she was little, a trace of hesitation flashed across George Sterling’s face, and he didn’t push her hand away. The rightful source is N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
However, when he looked at Rosalie Ray, he still felt extremely unwilling, his eyes showed a hint of fierceness.
Rosalie Ray knew his heart had softened, so she said, "Gregory, let me talk to you alone."
George Sterling originally didn’t want to pay attention to Rosalie Ray, but after clenching his teeth, he agreed.
The two of them got up and went into a room.
Eleanor Sterling watched their backs with a dark and unclear expression.
Rosalie Ray definitely didn’t want a divorce, yet after such a major incident, how would she persuade George Sterling?
As it stood, George Sterling did not want to compromise.
Rosalie Ray sat on the sofa and looked at George Sterling, "Gregory, we’ve been married for over twenty years, do you really not care about our relationship and truly want a divorce?"
Mentioning this, George Sterling became agitated again; he wished he could strangle Rosalie Ray.
He was consumed with anger and shouted, "Shut up! You were capable of disregarding our relationship and sleeping with another man, making me wear a cuckold’s hat, why should I tolerate you!"
Rosalie Ray laughed in anger, glaring at George Sterling with hatred, and spoke through gritted teeth, "Hahaha, I disregarded our relationship, well said!
George Sterling, don’t think I don’t know about your dirty thoughts, now acting all high and mighty?
When you were married to Jeanette Jennings, you were with me, just to anger Jeanette.
Too bad you didn’t realize she didn’t care at all, did she ever question you even once, no matter how many nights you didn’t come home?
I also know you two never got a marriage certificate, she was only using you..."
The wounds in George Sterling’s heart were torn open and salted, causing him excruciating pain.
That cold-blooded agreement sparked a faint hope in his heart, thinking he might make Jeanette Jennings love him.
Rosalie Ray laughed even more cheerfully, as if disregarding George Sterling’s anger, she continued to rip open his wounds.
"I insist on saying it! Jeanette married you just to avoid that man, and you really thought you caught her eye?
A woman like her could never fancy you; how do you even compare to that man?
If you really divorce me today, I’ll spread the word that Eleanor isn’t your daughter and that you and Jeanette never got a certificate!"
George Sterling clenched his fist and came forward to choke Rosalie Ray, "I’ll make you shut up!"
Rosalie Ray’s face turned red as she gasped for air, yet still fearlessly provoked George Sterling.
"Go ahead, strangle me, you won’t escape either."
Even though George Sterling wanted to kill her, his sanity returned in the end, and he let go of her.
Rosalie Ray got up and coughed twice.
She sneered, "We’re no different from each other, no one is nobler, and you have no other choice now."
George Sterling gritted his teeth; he indeed had no other choice.
Unexpectedly, neither of those around him was his biological daughter.
He doted on Faye Sterling so much, but she wasn’t his; it felt like all his efforts were fed to the dogs, and it pained him.
However, he wasn’t at a loss; the most successful thing he ever did was make everyone believe Eleanor was his daughter, including that man!
George Sterling’s expression shifted several times, from joy to anger, with a hint of vengeful pleasure.
Seeing him sit there silent, Rosalie Ray continued, "Faye is now connected with the Faulkner Family, and you know how many benefits the Sterling Family has received over the years.
If you insist on breaking up with me now, the Sterling Family will fall into Martin Sterling’s hands."
George Sterling’s eyes gradually regained determination; he stood up and looked at Rosalie Ray.
"Let me ask you one last question, whose child is Faye?"
Rosalie Ray’s eyes flickered before answering, "A male model’s, I’ve already gotten rid of him with money."
George Sterling looked at her for a moment, then turned and went out.
Watching his back, Rosalie Ray quietly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing George Sterling wouldn’t divorce her.
She tidied up and followed him outside.
In the living room, everyone was still waiting for the outcome of Rosalie Ray and George Sterling’s discussion.
George Sterling walked out with a determined stride, and Martin Sterling eagerly asked, "Gregory, so, have you made a decision?"
Seeing Martin Sterling’s gloating expression, George Sterling gritted his teeth and said, "Rosalie and I won’t divorce; we will later announce that the test is fake and try to minimize the Sterling Family’s loss."
Martin Sterling had thought George Sterling was principled enough to definitely divorce Rosalie Ray, meaning George Sterling’s side would fall apart.
But who knows what went on in that room, suddenly they weren’t divorcing anymore.
How could he be willing to accept this?
"Gregory, have you really thought this through? Faye isn’t your daughter, are you really going to raise someone else’s daughter?"
