The Miraculous Simone Gray

Chapter 272 Can You Please Spare Me?
Zac was deeply distressed as he listened to this recording, his heart almost breaking. He had known beforehand that Simone
had been treated unfairly within the Gray Family, but he never expected it to be this dire.
He was devastated. As a result, he glared at Andrew and Aaron. “Are you even human? Forget about being her brothers; even
strangers wouldn’t be so cruel.” He looked at Andrew sarcastically. “Have all the books you’ve read over the years gone to
waste? Simone fought for the spot herself from Jonah, but Jodie insisted it was hers. The whole family pressured Simone to give
up her spot. Otherwise, it’s stealing from Jodie. I’ve never heard of such a twisted theory before. And isn’t Simone the rightful
heiress of the Gray Family? Your implication is as if Simone is the adopted daughter, trying to steal the position of the biological
daughter. If that’s the case, why did your family take Simone back? To acknowledge her and use her as a companion for the
adopted daughter, to step on her? All of you have such malicious intentions. Simone has had-terrible luck to have a family like
you.”
Then, he coldly looked at Aaron. “And you. You lost Simone in the first place, yet you
dare to ask Simone to give up her spot for Jodie, colluding with others to suppress Simone and snatch her resources! And you
have the nerve to say she’s being resentful. As she should! If it weren’t for meeting her master after being abducted by
traffickers, she would’ve been sold off to the mountain as a child bride. How dare you say she’s resentful, using this as an
excuse to compete with Jodie for a favor?”
He angrily continued, “Does Simone even care about Jodie’s so-called favor? She only gave way to you guys because she once
cared about you.” He questioned again, “Think about how much she’s done for you guys. Don’t you appreciate it? I’ve heard of
many things, like her making medicinal meals for every member of the Gray Family. Luca often had a sore throat, so she
spent over half a year making a throat lozenge that not only soothes but also relieves pain. But during his last appearance, he
unreasonably accused her. I’m afraid those throat lozenges were all wasted.
“Simone accompanied you to practice dancing and was caught by the paparazzi. She was so badly criticized by your fans, but
you, as her brother who lost her, hid and refrained from explaining. Afterward, you were also photographed having dinner alone
with Jodie. As soon as she was criticized, you immediately stepped forward to clarify the situation.

“This is what we know, but there are still many things we don’t know, right? Simone has everything to every one of you. She
wanted to cherish this hard-won family relationship. But what did that get her? Is this how you repay her and her efforts? Your so-
called compensation is cold violence, suppression, punishment, and even turning the tables by accusing her of stealing from
Jodie.
“You forced her to the point where she couldn’t stay in the family anymore, and she had to cut ties with you to protect what she
fought for.” Then, he continued, “But I’ve also figured something out.

“Whether it’s before or this recording, it all shows one thing. For the sake of Jodie, you Grays can distort the truth, bully Simone
without any reason, and even enjoy gaslighting her. It’s ironic because it was Jodie who wanted to take Simone’s spot. But in
your narrative, it became the other way round.”
He deliberately looked at Jonah and asked, “Jonah, were you the one who initially chose Simone as the regular guest on this
show?”
Jonah was initially quite excited and thrilled because of the recording, but after listening to it, he felt a bit bitter in his heart. Thus,
he did not avoid the question at this moment. Instead, he truthfully answered, “Yes, everyone knows that Simone is a geomancy
master. Before the variety show, she saved my wife. At that time, this show hadn’t been confirmed, and she didn’t ask for any
repayment from me. After it was, I took the initiative to contact her and invited her to be a regular guest because I wanted to
repay this favor.
“As for Jodie, it was her manager, Titus, who came to me with her and Aaron. They said Aaron could participate in our show
without payment. But there was one condition, which was to bring their sister along. Since Aaron is a popular star, I naturally
couldn’t refuse and had agreed.” He did not exaggerate but simply stated the facts.
Zac said, “Thank you, Jonah, for clarifying things. Then, he looked at Andrew and said, “I just want to ask. How did Simone
precisely snatch Jodie’s spot and resources? Please clarify for everyone. Otherwise, we won’t understand the logic behind this.”

Andrew’s face turned pale, then red, a mix of embarrassment and anger. Being questioned like this by Zac, he opened his mouth
but did not know what to say. He had spoken without thinking earlier, impulsively bringing up what they once believed. He
intended to ask Simone to stop targeting Jodie and let her off in this show.
Who would have thought that Simone would release the recording of their conversation from that day? After listening to the
recording, along with Jonah’s words, he could not find any words to retort.
Zac sneered. “What’s the matter? Cat’s got your tongue? You were quite eloquent when you asked Simone to spare Jodie
earlier, weren’t you? Simone was the one who wanted you to spare her.
“From beginning to end, it was you who provoked and accused first, yet you dare to say that Simone didn’t spare her. In the first
episode, Aaron immediately said Simone was wrong and asked her not to bully Jodie. In the second episode, before the live
broadcast started, Luca also angrily confronted Simone in front of everyone. He accused her because Jodie asked her not to go
too far. And now, in this episode, you’re doing the same thing, immediately shifting the blame onto Simone
“If Simone didn’t have the recording as evidence, she would’ve been wrongfully accused of bullying and stealing Jode’s
resources”
He glanced at Andrew and Aaron. “Did Simone step on your toes or something? Why do you guys hold some deep grudge
against her? Why are you treating her like this?”
At that moment, Simone looked at the brothers and echoed. “That’s what I’d like to know, too. How strong is your grudge against
me that you keep cornering me with every chance you get? You defend Jodie and come after me for attention. Did I offend you?
Did I provoke you? Just like before, our relationship was already strained; we had already fallen out. I don’t want to pretend and
put on a show for the audience. Now, it’s my fault that I’m impolite”
She appeared helpless and emphasized, “Can I also say, spare me, please? Can’t we have no connection or involvement? Can’t
we just be strangers?”
This time, Zac truly aided her by highlighting all the crucial points from the recording and questioning them in return.
