Chapter 15 Nobler than you bitches
Oh my god! What a shocking revelation!
According to rumors, Melvin had a wife hidden for three years, and it turns out she's the woman Keith brought along?!
Their conversation, and the way Lyra glanced at Charlotte before leaving...
There's something fishy about this, it's not simple!
The crowd's perception of Charlotte instantly changed.
Charlotte was a little panicked, never expecting this turn of events to backfire on her.
Now, everyone is suspecting if she's the mistress!
Melvin's assistant, Fred, took the initiative to step forward and resolve the situation, explaining to everyone.
"Please don't misunderstand. Mr. Freeman has already divorced Miss Lyra, and he is currently in a normal relationship with Miss Charlotte. Let's respect the Freeman family and not utter a word about today's incident."
With some cover-up, the crowd finally dispersed.
Sheila regained some strength and got up from the ground, tightly grabbing onto Melvin's sleeve.
Her exaggerated dark circles made her look comical as she clenched her teeth, unwilling to accept it. "Brother, you have to help me. That little bitch has bullied me, openly humiliating the Freeman family. You must give her a harsh lesson!"
Charlotte chimed in from the side, "Melvin, tonight Sheila clearly suffered great injustice. What are you planning to do about Lyra?"
Melvin's eyes darkened as he glanced at each of them.
"Since you insist, let's first go and check the surveillance."
Muttering these words, he took the lead and left.
Sheila's face showed a hint of anxiety as she instinctively glanced at the surveillance cameras on the garden lampposts.
Thinking that these cameras could only capture the scene of her being bullied, there shouldn't be a big problem.
She and Charlotte followed Melvin's footsteps together.
Before leaving, Lyra had specifically instructed the manager of the Grand Esther Hotel to lead the three of them to the surveillance room. As they left, the manager respectfully cast another glance at Sheila's hideous makeup.
Sheila caught his gaze and confronted him, "What are you looking at? Even with my messed makeup, I'm still nobler than you despicable people!"
The manager scurried away, feeling deeply resentful. He wondered how long she could remain arrogant!
Inside the surveillance room.
The video started playing, second by second.
Sheila never expected that the hotel's cameras could record audio too!
She listened to her own malicious curses in the surveillance video, as well as the fact that she made the first move but was countered by Lyra. Her face grew increasingly pale...
Melvin's face turned terrifyingly dark, growing more gloomy like a harbinger of a storm.
Sheila glanced at his expression and completely lost her nerve.
"Brother, please let me explain..."
Melvin completely ignored her and turned to leave.
"Brother!"
She chased after him, still unwilling. "I may have spoken harshly, but I had no ill intentions! And as you saw, she pressed my face into the fountain. I didn't even touch her with a finger!"
Melvin's face turned even darker.
"Sheila, others might not know you, but I know you pretty well. What were your true intentions when you pretended to offer her money? You know that better than anyone."
Sheila's face turned pale instantly, crying in frustration. "I just wanted to teach her a lesson. I couldn't stand seeing her stringing you along while trying to seduce other men. I was standing up for you!"
Upon hearing this, Melvin fell silent, his eyes filled with murky ambiguity.
Thinking he was wavering, Sheila felt a glimmer of hope and decided to press on.
"Look at how intimate Mr. Lloyd is with her. They must have started their affair while she was still married! That kind of slut, brother, you should teach her a lesson."
She paused for a moment and continued, "How about we use this incident, remove the audio from the surveillance footage, edit it a bit, and share it online? Let her be ridiculed by people, thus ruining her reputation. What do you say, Brother?"
