At that moment, things were nose diving toward the bad side.
However, he did not have the evidence to help Bethan. No sound came from the booth upstairs for a long time.
Cynthal’s heart which was hanging in suspense finally came down. She looked at Bethan arrogantly. “You’re just bluffing. I bet all these are just your speculations. If you don’t have the proof, I can sue you for defamation! “
Bethan stood on the spot, looking at how smug Cynthal was. She was clutching her fists tightly.
Her heart hurt. It was extremely painful, yet she was helpless about it.
Neil did not appear because something wrong must have happened to the evidence.
Brettley was clearly siding with Cynthal. Nellie’s identity has been announced, she would not be able to protect Nellie at Blue Bay Villa anymore.
If no one saw Cynthal’s true colors that day, she was worried…
At that thought, Bethan looked at Cynthal fiercely. “Don’t be too arrogant yet.“
“I am, what are you going to do about it?“ Cynthal harrumphed coldly. “Although I was wrong to give Granny Morrison a fake set of jewelry, I am a good person. I wanted to acquire the Stargazing from Mr. Quinn, but he named an extremely high price. I could only find another way, to get a set of imitations to please Granny Morrison.
“Although I was wrong in doing so, that does not mean you could accuse me of murder, right? If you claim I was trying to kill my sister’s daughter, please show proof! If you can’t, that means you’re spewing nonsense and lies! Don’t think that just because you have worked as a servant at the Blue Bay Villa for a month, you could come and accuse me of this! “
Upon her words, everyone came to a realization. It turns out that this servant was just trying to defame Cynthal. Some even pointed out, “Isn’t she the woman that was photographed shopping with Mr. Morrison? It looks like she failed at seducing Mr. Morrison, so she’s taking it out on Ms. Peterson.“
“She looks pretty, but what a vicious heart she has…“
Bethan heard the comments clearly. She gritted her teeth, trying not to be affected by those words, but how was it possible?
She did not expect that she would still lose to Cynthal six years later. It was the same as six years before. It was all because of Brettley.
“I have proof.”
Just when Bethan closed her eyes in despair, wondering what to do, a crisp child’s voice rang throughout the venue.
Bethan opened her eyes immediately.
It was Nigel! He was actually controlling the computer equipment remotely?
“Ms. Peterson, please do not think that the things you have done are flawless.”
The little boy’s voice was as cold as Brettley’s.
After a while, the large screen on stage was connected to a foreign desktop.
“What the hell!”
Neil slapped his thigh in the booth on the second floor. “Once again, my big brother saves the day! “
He immediately got up excitedly. “Zach, Yuri, follow one!”
The two bodyguards who were still eating were stunned. “Boss, where are we going?“
“To protect the computer backstage! In case someone switches off the power! “
Zach and Yuri immediately chased after Neil. “You’re right, Boss! “
Nigel heard what Neil said too. He chuckled lightly, “ Thank goodness you still have some guilty conscience.“
Neil pouted and picked up the necklace. “After all, it’s my mistake! I did not know how to continue, but you rescued me, brother! “
“Only you would trust that scumbag.“
After chatting with Neil, Nigel turned to look at the big screen from the surveillance of the venue.
He has full control of the screen. He took a deep breath and played the video on his desktop.
“This is the recording and receipt of Ms. Cynthal Peterson’s first transaction with the amusement park staff.“
He played the recording and enlarged the receipt on the screen.
“This stupid b*tch’s life. Five million. Plus the maid’s, five hundred thousand. A total of five million and five hundred thousand. Do it cleanly.“
The crowd gasped.
Who said that Cynthal had no money! Who said that she could not buy real jewelry? She was not broke! She only used the money to murder!
On the stage, Cynthal’s smug smile was plastered across her face.
She bit her lips and immediately rushed to the source of power. She wanted to stop everything.
However, she did not expect that before she could switch the power off, a huge, burly bodyguard was blocking her way!
“Ms. Peterson, you’re already nervous just by this?“
Nigel’s aloof voice rang throughout the venue from the speakers. “I have even more exciting ones.“
Then, Nigel opened another recording and receipt. The ones where she got someone to secretly photographed Bethan and Brettley and the ones where she hired men to set fire to burn Nellie and Bethan alive.
There was even more.
“Mr. Lexus. I really want to sleep with you, but Brettley won’t allow it. If he did, I would have fulfilled your wish, then I would have gotten that role already.“
Every recording and video was like a bomb detonating.
The crowd was in an uproar over and over again. Each news was even more explosive than the other!
They were there to attend a banquet, yet they did not expect they would be able to see such a dramatic turn of events!
“Tsk, tsk. “ Adrian, who has been hugging Nellie all this while, sneered. He swept a cold glance at Brettley. “This is the fiancée that you tried so hard to protect? Someone, call the police! If Ms. Peterson does not go to prison, she would not appreciate how precious the lives of the Morrison family are! “
Granny Morrison’s expressions turned ugly. “Cynthal Peterson. You are… how shameless of you! “
Seeing how no one called the police, Adrian furrowed his brows. “What are you still waiting for? Call the police! “
Someone timidly fished out their phone.
Before they could call, Brettley waved his hands calmly and stopped them.
“There is no need to report the police.“
“Mr. Morrison, are you still trying to protect Cynthal?“
Bethan looked at Brettley coldly and laughed, “It looks like Mr. Morrison does love Ms. Peterson deeply. Even if she named a price to get your daughter killed, you are still letting her go. Is that it? Why don’t you just send Nellie back to her mother, at least, she still cares about Nellie’s safety? You don’t need to call off the engagement with Cynthal too. One’s a vicious person, the other one doesn’t know right from wrong. You both are a match made in heaven.“
Brettley narrowed his eyes and shot Bethan a cold glance. “Don’t be so rude.“
He lifted his head and picked up the microphone. “ Everyone, I’m so sorry that you had to see this.
However, the Morrison family has its own rules and its own ways of dealing with problems like this.“
He continued, “We’re all gathered here to celebrate Granny Morrison’s birthday. Everyone here is a friend or relative of the Morrison family, so I’m sure you’re all familiar with how we do things around here. If a single word of this gets out…“
Brettley’s gaze turned hostile. “I’m sure you know what will happen.“
The crowd grew silent immediately. Everyone glanced at each other, not knowing what to do.
