Shattered Roane He Field On Tight

Chapter 155 The Guilt Card

Alice’s first big appearance was a success.

Finished

But Alice never thought of claiming the song for herself. After asking Claudia’s opinion, she carefully signed the choreography with just a single letter–C.

Over at Tilda’s side, the director had nearly collapsed when their star dancer suddenly fell from grace, especially with the scandal broadcast during their livestream.

But soon after, Florence sent Tilda an invitation. She even offered smaller roles for the rest of her team in a new production.

Then came the good news: former investor Whitney, together with the new backer, Romero Corp, poured in a huge investment.

The director finally felt at ease.

Tilda’s position as lead dancer was now rock solid.

Of course, Alice had no idea that Mandy was still lurking in the background, waiting like a hunter in the bushes. If she had, she might have wanted to bow down to Claudia in gratitude.

Sacrificing Lydia had brought blessings to everyone else.

If every bad person could be this useful, she’d call it a bargain.

Alice even joked that maybe Claudia had more enemies they could take down next.

Crushing the opposition was simply too satisfying.

While Alice went on cheerfully about how Lydia’s downfall had opened new doors, someone else had finally tracked down the villa.

From the security camera, Alice spotted the Lancasters at the front gate. She scratched her head awkwardly. “Uh… should I go hide somewhere?”

In the past few days, the Lancasters had come looking for her several times because of Lydia.

Their confrontations were anything but pleasant.

Whether it was Celine or Alice’s parents, they all stood firm.

They weren’t afraid of clashing with the Lancasters. Their daughter wasn’t going to suffer one bit.

Claudia shook her head. “No need. I’m not hiding that I got involved.”

If the Lancasters had any sense, they wouldn’t have come.

Unfortunately, after years of manipulating her, they still believed she was the same girl they could easily control.

When the couple and their son arrived and saw the villa, all three felt uneasy.

Over the years, Claudia had gone from sharing an apartment to buying a small condo of her own. And her first real home–the one gifted to her—had come from an outsider.

yet,

Honestly, regret was starting to set in.

But there was no undoing the past.

And after so many years of affection and family ties, they couldn’t bring themselves to completely let go of Lydia.

Most importantly, their interests were still tied together.

Because of Lydia, Wilson had been chewed out at the recent shareholders‘ meeting.

If they didn’t find a way to fix things soon, even the board might start to turn on them.

The best outcome would be getting Lydia released, then covering it all with some new scandal. People’s memories are short, after all.

When they walked in, Claudia was sitting calmly on the living room couch. Sterling was nowhere to be seen. It immediately eased their nerves.

If Sterling had been there, they wouldn’t even know how to begin the conversation.

But Claudia didn’t make it easy on them either.

She didn’t offer them any drink and didn’t invite them to sit. The three of them just stood there awkwardly.

Claudia raised her eyes lazily. “Let’s skip the small talk. What do you want?”

Clarence’s face twitched with discomfort, but he forced himself to speak. “The Jensens are still pressing charges against Lydia. We heard that Mr. Romero and Celine know each other, and since you were once Celine’s mentee … Claudia, please help us speak to them.”

“No.”
