:

Winston and Jennie had no idea Elsa was truly behind everything.

But James could make them say she was.

Elsa loved framing others? Then she could finally taste what it meant to be framed.

At first, he had only planned to teach Elsa a lesson tonight. But Marilyn had danced so wildly in the flames, he might as well burn her too. Two pests at once.

After all, the two of them were far too close. James didn’t believe for a moment Marilyn was innocent of tonight’s scheme.

In watching Elsa these past days, his men had stumbled upon another old video. That, too, would be shown by another’s hand–his special gift for Elsa.

“That’s them… aren’t they the man and woman from the video?”

“How are they here?”

“They must’ve been working together to frame Lily!”

The hall burst into uproar, voices crashing together.

Ashton took the microphone, raising a hand for quiet.

Once the room settled, his voice rang clear. “I think everyone can see for themselves–Winston and Jennie are the pair of sluts from the video.”

He turned, fixing the two with a hard stare. “Tell us. Ms. Ginger has no quarrel with you. Why film that video and try to make the world believe she betrayed Mr. James?”

“I…”

Winston and Jennie’s hearts were steady.

James had already given them money and promised them safe passage abroad once they did their part.

They had no reason to fear Jimmy’s revenge anymore. They could say whatever they liked.

But they still followed Ashton’s script, feigning panic. “We… we can’t say.”

“What’s there to be afraid of?”

The audience surged with anger.

“Someone told you to frame Lily, didn’t they?”

“If you keep covering for the one behind you, we’ll all go to the police and see you locked up!”

“Exactly! This crime is too vile–you deserve prison!”

“I don’t want to go to prison…”

Winston clutched his head, groaning, his face a mask of despair. “I’ll talk, I’ll say everything! It was… it was Miss Elsa. She sent us money to frame Ms. Ginger. I was wrong. Ms. Ginger, please, don’t call the police–I can’t go to prison!”

Jennie wept, trembling. “Yes, it was Elsa’s fault, all of it. If anyone should go to jail, it’s her. Ms.

Ginger, please, we beg you, don’t let them lock us away!”

“You’re lying!”

Elsa’s scream cut through the air.

She had never even met these two dogs. How could they possibly know she was the one pulling the strings?

If anyone, they should have named Jimmy.

How dare they drag her down instead?

Her panic slipped, her voice raw. Too many heads turned in her direction. Afraid of being recognized, she slapped her hands over her mouth.

“Elsa again…”

Ashton’s lips curled in a mocking smile. “She really can’t stop making trouble. First she shamelessly broke up Ms. Ginger and her ex, now she dares frame her again. Where does she get the face to keep doing this? Then again, I suppose her being a mistress did serve one purpose–it showed Ms. Ginger what scum her ex truly was, and led her to my boss, her real destiny.”

Under her mask, Elsa’s face twisted with rage.

Chapter 528 Turning the Trap

She had been called beautiful all her life.

:

And here Ashton was, calling her ugly in front of everyone. Blind fool!

Her fury barely had time to settle before Ashton pressed again.

“So it was Elsa who instructed you? No one else helped her?”

“This…”

Winston and Jennie exchanged glances, pretending to struggle.

Then, as if after great torment, they both blurted, “It wasn’t only Elsa. Miss Marilyn was also behind it.”

“What?!”

The color drained from Marilyn’s face.

These two mad dogs–what nonsense were they spouting?

She had never even seen them before tonight!

“You’re insane! When did I ever order you? I’ve never laid eyes on you before. Do you even know who I am? I’m Victor’s fiancée, the Luke family’s acknowledged daughter–in–law. If you keep slandering me, I’ll destroy you!”

“Idiot, shut up!”

Blanc’s face burned with humiliation. Never had he been so embarrassed in public.

This fool–did she not realize they were still live on air? To threaten and rant before the

cameras?

He pressed a hand to his forehead, icy with disgust.

In that moment, he almost regretted Victor was his son at all–regretted his family had ever become entangled with a pest like her.
