Chapter 475: Guilt–tripping her fans
The fans and anti-fans were confused. Although they know that Brian is Jeslyn’s senior in the entertainment industry and that they were quite fond of each other, it didn’t sit well with them.
After the hug, Jeslyn cleared her throat, thanked everyone for the award and started addressing her fans. After all, her public appearance was the main reason this year’s anniversary was pushed forward. It was supposed to be happening in two days, but because of her baby shower which was fixed on a weekend that happened to be in two days, Rex moved the company’s anniversary to today.
"I got a distressing call from my Manager some days ago, telling me that my lovely husband was being bad-mouthed and insulted by my fans. I was, and still hurt by that. My husband is my king and when he’s insulted, it means you have no regard for me." She said it slowly and calmly but sometimes her voice broke, making her words so emotional that a lot of fans felt bad.
"I wasn’t around. I needed some space to think things through. I know I should have informed you all. I know I should have come out to refute the malicious articles, pictures and videos that were travelling around but I didn’t, and that’s not because there was truth in any of those, but because I wanted to know what that person wanted.
"As you all know, the late Mr. Chen wasn’t my real father. But what I didn’t know was that, the person whom I thought was my real mother all along, was also not my real Mother."
The crowd gasped. That, that was quite...
"Recently, my real mother finally had the courage to come out and tell me the truth about my identity. Meanwhile, she had been by my side all these years and I had no idea."
She paused to wipe her tears. While the crowd and those watching were also feeling very emotional.
"My real mother, Alex Lee, told me that my late mother, Alice Lee was her twin sister. Indeed they were twins but I wasn’t informed because the Lee family were hiding away from a deadly organization, named the Half Heart organization."
