Chapter 298 Chaos Ensues
The people who came today were, mainly the friends and relatives, from the Johnson family's side. This was such an embarrassment to their family.
Mrs. Hamilton realized this and angrily pushed Mrs. Wilson, "Is this how you raise your daughter, the Wilson family? Absolutely shameless—"
Isla in the video looks young and immature, it should be from a year or two ago. How old was she back then?
Mrs. Wilson became dumbfounded. Although most of the guests who came today are from the Johnson family's side, there are also some from their family. Having the engagement banquet turn into such a public spectacle, others may be shameless, but she shouldn't be!
She instinctively grabbed Mrs. Hamilton's hand and explained in a friendly tone, "Mrs. Hamilton, you should know who Isla is. She would never do such a thing. It's possible that someone set her up!"
Mr. Wilson quickly spoke, "Yes, yes, yes, it's trendy to switch faces nowadays. The people in this video are definitely imposters. Someone intentionally played a prank and ruined the engagement banquet. Who is it? Show yourself!"
"Mr. Wilson, do you think we're blind? Can't you recognize if it's Isla or not? This face, this voice, can it be disguised?" Mr. Hamilton's face turned red with anger.
He wanted to punch the shameless Wilsons to death! He felt so embarrassed with so many guests present today.
Mrs. Wilson, not knowing how to save the situation, called out anxiously to Isla, "Isla, say something!"
Only then did Isla realize that she could simply deny it. After all, the parties involved were not present, so she could say anything she wanted! So she resorted to her usual tactic, large tears rolled down her face.
"I have no idea who made this video, or why it suddenly appeared during the ring exchange ceremony! Who are you? What do you want to achieve? Can't stand our happiness at our engagement banquet, and intentionally want to sabotage it? If you're gutsy enough, come out and face me! Let's confront each other!"
She lifted her tear-streaked face, looking at Remy with a combination of grievance and determination, "You, as my fiancé, and you, soon-to-be my family!"
She pointed at Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton, tears flowing down, and said with restrained but resolute words, "Not a single one of you bothered to ask me, one hit me, one falsely accused me, one humiliated my parents! Don't you think that's going too far? Is this the upbringing of the Johnson family?!"
Silence fell upon the room with that statement. Had the Johnson family act rashly? After all, this was the engagement ceremony, to publicly hit the bride. At the very least, the bride's family was one of the wealthiest in New York!
Remy's hand throbbed with a burning sensation. Yes, he did lose his temper and hit her in front of hundreds of people. Seeing her swollen cheek, Remy suddenly felt a pang of guilt for the injuries she had suffered these past two days.
"You're saying this girl isn't you?" Mrs. Hamilton's anger had clearly not subsided as she pointed at the big screen and angrily asked, "Then what evidence do you have to prove that she is someone else?"
With a bitter smile, Isla looked at Mrs. Hamilton. "And what evidence do you have to prove that this video is real? That the girl in it is me? That I did such a thing? I don't even know myself. Do you all know better than me?"
The Wilson couple breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness Isla was rational, clever, and eloquent enough to turn the situation around.
"I know you don't like me, but Remy and I truly love each other, yet you won't allow it. Could it be that you created this video to deliberately ruin the engagement ceremony?" Isla shifted the blame onto Mr. Hamilton and Mrs. Hamilton.
"Nonsense! Today is our family's banquet, why would we do such things? You didn't really do this, did you? Trying to slander us?"
Isla fiercely said, "If I really did such things, my whole family can die! What about you? Dare you make a solemn oath? Dare you say that these were not maliciously fabricated by you? Intentionally humiliating our Wilson family?!"
"Insane!" Making a solemn oath on such a joyous day, cursing one's whole family? Mr. Hamilton and Mrs. Hamilton would never do such foolish things!
But all the guests saw Isla making the solemn oath while Mr. Hamilton and Mrs. Hamilton dared not, instantly feeling that Isla was being wrongly accused. If she really did commit such shameless acts, how could she make her entire family take an oath? There must be some hidden meaning.
Just then, the big screen played page after page of hotel room records. When, where, which room, how many hours, everything was clearly recorded. There were even videos of Kai and Isla entering and leaving the hotel together, as well as videos of them intimate in different rooms.
At a glance, the entire screen played over twenty videos, every single one with Isla's face! In lots of the videos, Remy saw a mole on Isla's buttock. If the girl in the video wasn't her, how would the person creating the video know where her mole was located?!
Also, there was a scar near the base of her thigh that she got from being scalded by boiling water when she was a child. If the girl in the video wasn't her, why was even this scar in the exact same position?!
"You still dare to deny it?" Remy, angry to the core, raised his palm, wishing to slap her again!
Isla never expected that all of her past hotel room records with Kai, as well as their usual intimate moments, had been found and neatly presented in front of her.
This time, she wasn't as composed as before. She took a step back in disbelief. Who, who had the ability to dig up things from a year ago like this. In her mind, a figure quickly flashed, was it... Abella?
Seeing Isla's expression, Mrs. Hamilton regained her confidence. "It really is you! Just now, you made a solemn oath with your whole family to mislead everyone... You are truly a wicked person!" Before Isla could react, Mrs. Hamilton fiercely slapped her!
"Why are you hitting my daughter?" Mrs. Wilson became anxious and was about to step forward.
"You disgusting thing! Your parents didn't teach you how to behave. Today, I'll teach you properly!" Mrs. Hamilton slapped Isla once again.
Mrs. Wilson tried to intervene but was blocked by Mr. Hamilton, while Mr. Wilson was punched hard by Mr. Hamilton as he approached. The entire stage descended into chaos. Even the renowned host was stunned, unsure of what to do.
"Look, you've raised such a good daughter!" Mr. Hamilton exclaimed, fiercely punching Mr. Wilson, completely ignoring their presence on the stage.
Mrs. Wilson saw that her husband's mouth was bleeding from the blow, and with a scream, she tried to intervene. She witnessed Mrs. Hamilton slap Isla once again, while Isla held on tightly to Remy's hand, desperately trying to explain something.
