Doted by Many: I became the Top-Tier Celebrity!-Chapter 343 - 342: But You Shouldn’t Have Touched Tiana
Tiana Thorne was aggressive, with no intention of letting her go.
You can bully her, but Meredith Ford dared to lay a hand on her second brother. Even though so much time has passed, Tiana would never let it slide easily.
As soon as those words were said.
Boom——
It was like the thunderbolt struck Meredith Ford’s head, leaving her unable to react for a while.
Why could Tiana Thorne be so sure?
Meredith Ford’s complexion was very pale, her lips moved, trembling, in extreme grievance: "Second brother, if Tiana Thorne hadn’t revealed the truth, I really wouldn’t have thought that the rejuvenating cream was the problem. Things have already happened, I owe you an apology, but the elevator accident really had nothing to do with me."
Tiana Thorne kept silent, crossed her legs lazily, her beautiful fox-like eyes glimmering with shattered starlight as she looked at everything with a bored expression.
May Sloane watched the scene, utterly shocked. In just a few minutes, Tiana had transformed from a pitiful white lotus into a queen, looking down on Meredith Ford.
She trusted Tiana unconditionally because she could calculate others’ destinies.
So everything she said was true.
Yet, Meredith Ford was incredibly bold, daring to drug Julian Ford.
Instinctively, May Sloane glanced at Julian Ford and was startled by what she saw.
Julian Ford’s aura was exceedingly cold, as if soaked in hell’s dead water for a millennium, using all his might to crawl out, leaving only endless ice and desolation.
Seeing this, Meredith Ford’s heart sank bit by bit, lightly biting her lip: "Second brother, I’m sorry, I truly didn’t know it would ruin your voice."
"Meredith."
Julian Ford suddenly spoke, his voice low and very hoarse, as if containing blades, equally chilling.
Meredith Ford trembled; among all her brothers, she knew Julian disliked her the most and was the hardest to deal with.
Back then, her second brother’s voice represented his hope and dreams.
He loved singing and writing lyrics, always handsome and cool, with an especially pleasant voice, even surpassing their fourth brother.
But after that accident was resolved, he locked himself in his room for half a year, burned all his instruments, and threw away all the records.
After half a year, he seemed like a different person.
The hoarse voice became his signature, still cool but devoid of sunlight, leaving only dark cold charm. Though his lips often carried a smile, his phoenix eyes were cold, with an element of cruel destruction.
This sound of "Meredith" hit her soul with fear.
Meredith Ford dared not defend herself, lowered her head, not daring to look at him, speaking one word at a time: "Second brother, I’m sorry... I know I’m wrong."
Julian Ford narrowed his cold phoenix eyes, his voice frost-like: "What’s done is done."
Meredith Ford looked up at him in disbelief.
A ruined voice was nearly the darkest event in his life, and he simply said it’s in the past?
How could that be?
Her gaze flickered slightly: "Second brother..."
Julian Ford said coldly: "However, you shouldn’t have touched Tiana."
Tiana?
Instantly, Meredith Ford understood who he meant...
Tiana Thorne!
Meredith Ford, shocked yet puzzled, looked at him: "Isn’t she our big brother’s girlfriend?"
"Yes, I heard from Chen that the Ford family has a rule to respect elders and care for juniors. Even if I haven’t entered the Ford household, I am now the woman recognized by Chen, so who are you to think you can put me to death?" Tiana Thorne interjected.
This moment could not let Meredith Ford know she was the real Ford family’s eldest miss.
There was so much yet to be secretly investigated.
Why was there no blood relation between Meredith Ford and her?
The only explanation is Meredith Ford wasn’t mother’s real sister but born to her third aunt. If that’s the case, whose daughter is Meredith Ford?
And why pretend to be the third aunt’s daughter?
Before figuring all of this out, the snake should not be startled.
Moreover, about her being taken away, she truly didn’t believe that her adoptive mother, Whitney Lynch, could complete the plan alone to steal her.
From her two brothers, she learned the Ford family did not conceal from them that Meredith Ford was their biological sister, meaning her relatives wanted to find her.
The Ford family had the power and influence to easily retrieve her unless someone deliberately obstructed it.
She must investigate well; currently, revealing her identity is not an option.
After hearing, Meredith Ford was very angry, her eyes reddened, and tears fell, biting her lip to force them back.
Coldly saying: "Second brother, she hasn’t married big brother yet, why should I respect her? Moreover, last time, the matter had nothing to do with me, my kneeling down to apologize was for past events, not her."
"Yes, I indeed never considered her as sister-in-law." Julian Ford’s voice was even hoarser.
Meredith Ford did not understand: "Then why are you?"
"Because long ago, I acknowledged her as my foster sister. Meredith Ford, who gave you the courage to harm her, huh?"
Meredith Ford looked at him in shock, then at Tiana Thorne who seemed indifferent, still playing with a wine glass, watching the show.
Her heart sank heavily, murmuring: "Foster sister..."
At that moment, she felt her status over the years was being threatened.
She couldn’t stay calm and couldn’t allow the existence of this foster sister, angrily stood up from the ground, glaring at him: "You can’t recognize a foster sister, Dad and Mom said, none of you can recognize foster kin. Even if you don’t want to admit it, you must, the Ford family only has one daughter, me, I’m your only sister, and she’s nothing!"
Tiana Thorne looked at Julian Ford with a somewhat wounded expression, her eyes moist, her green tea bitch expression suddenly emerging, her voice delicate yet aggrieved: "Second brother, since the family rule says it can’t be recognized, then forget it, I’ll just silently consider you a brother, stay by your side."
God knows how excited Julian Ford was now.
Though he knew his little fox sister was deliberately stirring up Meredith Ford, she genuinely called him brother.
Finally, this moment had arrived...
He turned back, giving her a warm look: "Little sister, rules are meant to be broken."
Tiana Thorne smiled slightly, performing emotive tenderness to the fullest, whispered: "Second brother, you’re so good."
May Sloane: "..."
If not knowing Tiana, realizing she was acting, this scene truly resembled the type of bad green tea women hate most, trying to climb up by ingratiating but knowing how to advance by retreat.
This surely enraged Meredith Ford with envy.
Meredith Ford looked at the scene, nearly driven mad, especially by Tiana Thorne’s green tea expression, she wished she could slap her, and screamed: "Second brother, can’t you see she’s using every possible means to get into our Ford family? She is just a..."
"Shut up!"
At this moment, a man’s voice filled with disappointment, yet immensely authoritative, came from behind the screen.
