Chapter 683 Who Is More Embarrassing
Everleigh stared at her expressionlessly. There was no ripple in her eyes; they were like pools of stagnant water.
Cynthia looked at her as if she had thought of something.
“It’s you. You already know, don’t you?” She looked at Everleigh in horror. It was as if she was a transparent person in front of Cynthia and shouldn’t be considering this.
“Shut up.” Alexander stared at her with red eyes. This was all her fault. If she hadn’t had bad intentions, she wouldn’t be in all this trouble.
Now, she even blamed someone else. It was no wonder that Everleigh didn’t like Cynthia when she returned. She didn’t make a good impression at all.
Cynthia was berated by Alexander and felt even more disconcerted. “Alexander, why do you always help her? It’s obvious that she…”
“Everleigh and I were together. She never left us. If you want to frame her, you should find the evidence,” he interrupted her with a terrible scowl.
On the other hand, Yeezoo was not willing to accept this fact. His daughter’s innocence had been destroyed. “Alexander, are you saying that she deserved it?”
“Whether she deserved it or not, you can ask her yourself. Didn’t she do it to herself?” Alexander’s tone was full of favoritism towards Everleigh.
It made the three of them even more upset.
“You…”
“That’s enough.” Saniogo suddenly stood up. He slammed the table and roared angrily. Those who originally intended to speak all shut their mouths.
Adrienne couldn’t help but cry as she looked at Saniogo. “Boo-hoo… Grand-Uncle is so scary.”
Hearing that her daughter was crying, Everleigh hugged her hastily. “Don’t cry, Darling. don’t cry.”
There was a hint of chagrin in Saniogo’s eyes as he glanced at Adrienne. He told the butler to take care of the child.
Everleigh was worried that Adrienne would cry even more, so she took the two children to her room first.
As for Theodore, he stayed at the scene. He wanted to see what excuse Cynthia would come up with.
Christopher and Erine stood to the side. This was the first time they had seen Saniogo being so angry.
In the past, he was always steady or benevolent, but now, he might actually lose his temper.
“Cynthia, didn’t I warn you before not to cause trouble?” Alexander asked icily.
Cynthia’s entire body trembled as her anger spiked. “I’m causing trouble? Why not Everleigh? Every one of you has been defending her since she came back, and now you’re saying that I’m wrong? Alexander, you’re being too biased in her favor.”
Missha listened to her nonsense and turned her head away. She couldn’t stand looking at her any longer.
She was really disappointed in Cynthia.
“I’m biased? Ever since Everleigh came back, you’ve always been targeting her. Cynthia, do you really want me to bring the evidence out?” Alexander’s eyes were cold.
He was thoroughly disappointed in her.
Yeezoo and Melissa were also appalled. They stared at Cynthia and doubted that Alexander’s words were true.
“I didn’t bring it out because you’re part of the Jenkins family. You’ve already embarrassed yourself. Are you going to throw away your last bit of dignity?”
“Alexander, you don’t have to say that. If you have any evidence, bring it out.” She was pretty sure that he had no proof.
She had disposed of everything.
Erine sneered and whispered in Christopher’s ear. He then nodded and turned away.
Seeing this, Theodore’s gaze turned cold. “Cynthia, do you really think you’ve done well? There’s no surveillance cameras in the ladies’ room, but that doesn’t mean that we don’t know who entered the room.”
Cynthia’s entire body trembled when she heard Theodore’s words. There was a hint of panic in her eyes.
Theodore was sly. He didn’t know anything, but he could try to find out.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Melissa knew her daughter very well. From Cynthia’s eyes, one could tell what she had done.
“Alexander, Cynthia has been ruined. Are you still going to be this aggressive?”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen a pest say something like that. The Jenkins family has a good reputation, but I didn’t expect that it’s actually really messy inside.” Christopher came over from the other side. The sarcasm in his eyes was clearly visible.
“This is the Jenkins family’s business. The Meyer family has no right to speak here.”
“I know I’m not qualified, but I can’t let you slander my friend.” Christopher sneered and walked up to Saniogo.
“Mr. Jenkins, here’s the proof.” Christopher showed his hand. It was a hollow capsule with white powder still on it.
Cynthia’s eyes widened as she looked incredulously at what he was holding.
“You… ”
Christopher ignored her and continued, “There’s still some of the drug on it. If you want to know who did it, just do a test and you’ll know. There must still be fingerprints on it.”
Cynthia felt as if she had been struck by lightning when she heard the words.
How… How did he find this? She had already thrown it into the trash can.
Theodore glanced at Erine. Seeing her expressionless face, he knew what had happened.
“Do you have anything else to say?” He asked and stood in front of Cynthia. A cold aura was radiating from him. It was so oppressive that she didn’t even dare to take a breath.
“You…”
“You have nothing to say, do you?” Theodore’s eyes turned stone cold. He raised his hand and slapped her across the face without saying anything.
“Slap!” The sound reverberated in the great hall. Cynthia’s face was full of disbelief and red fingerprints appeared on her face.
Yeezoo and Melissa were also stunned when they saw this scene. Theodore slapped their daughter right in front of them. Did he really think they didn’t exist?
When Everleigh walked out, she witnessed the scene. As far as she knew, Theodore wouldn’t hit a woman even if he was angry.
Why did he do it now?
She was not the only one who was shocked, but Alexander and the others as well. Theodore came from a wealthy and influential family. How could he hit a woman?
Melissa was the first one to regain her senses. She roared, “How dare you hit my daughter! Who do you think you are?” As she spoke, she raised her hand and was about to hit Theodore.
However, before she could touch him, the latter had already pinned her down.
“I’m going to beat her up in front of you. Even if you let her go, it doesn’t mean that others will do the same.” Theodore shook off her hand and said coldly.
Melissa stared at him with uncontrollable rage.
“Cynthia, you tried to set Everleigh up and got what was coming to you. I won’t forget this. You have disgraced the Jenkins family, so don’t blame me.” Theodore’s threatening tone was very serious. At the same time, he informed Saniogo and Alexander that he would damage the reputation of the Jenkins family.
Of course Saniogo wouldn’t blame him. Now that things had happened and so many people had seen it, he already felt mortified. Why would he still be afraid of being embarrassed further?
The man from the Baker family sat on the floor and didn’t say a word. He thought Cynthia was well liked here, so he agreed with her. He didn’t expect that she wasn’t favored in the Jenkins family.
He didn’t want a person who wasn’t liked.
