Meanwhile, at the Bailey Mansion…
Anthony, Chris, and Nial gathered before their large Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
television, their eyes glued to the breaking news—the
conference—going on live.
“Get ready,” commanded Anthony.
Alert and ready, Chris had a dark-colored remote
controller at hand. The remote was for his drone that
was tied with the strongest signal disruptor, and he
was ready to press on the button if anything against
Charmine was revealed during the press conference.
With a press of that button, the entire Hotel Kelsy—
including the people in the conference hall—would
have their signals interrupted thus disabling any livestream
of the conference. 2
(Hmph! So you all want to destroy Mommy’s
reputation by spreading fake news? Fat chance!’
Nial, on the other hand, had a list of names in his
hand. The names listed were all the conference’s
attendees, including the paparazzi, influencers, and
passersby. If anything concerning was revealed
during the press, the Bailey Corporation would step in
and silence the companies who employed them, all in
order to prohibit any news from getting out of the
hall. 1
(Hmph! Want to destroy my sister- in-law? Tough
luck!’
All of them had their eyes glued to the screen, eyes
wide open without blinking once.
However…
What appeared on the screen were not the receipts of
Charmine’s spending. Instead, it was video footage
from the Walton Grand Hotel’s Presidential Suite.
In that video, Prince Simon Gray stood by the door
with an obvious frown on his face. [You’re not a
waitress!] he exclaimed.
[Please don’t be alarmed, Prince Simon. I’m Charmine
Jordan’s cousin, and I’m here to strike a deal with
you.] Amelia stood in front of him, clad in a sexy red
tube dress.
[I’ll be hosting a press conference tomorrow, and I’m
hoping that Prince Simon could attend the
conference. You could tell the press that Charmine
had seduced you when you were drunk, and that she
kept on using that to cling onto you.]
[Why should I listen to you? Leave!] snapped Simon
Gray, angered by her suggestion.
Amelia merely looked at him with raised brows
before she suggestively added, [If you could expose
her, I’ll do anything you want.] Amelia then pulled
down her tube dress slightly, which pushed up her
breasts alluringly.
Simon’s look changed. [Really?] he prodded. [Do you
promise to do anything i f I help you out?]
[Of course, I’ll do anything you want.] Amelia
sauntered toward him and ground herself against
him—his arm—as seductive as one could imagine.
Every single attendee had their eyes widened like
saucers.
“Oh my god! This is breaking news, alright! Amelia
seduced the prince into spreading rumors about
Charmine?!”
“Amelia called for justice and claimed to d o the right
thing?! So the supposed right thing she did was
seducing the prince!”
“She’s so shameless…! Charmine grew up with her!
How could she do such a thing t o her?”
“What a b*tch, pretending to be a goody two shoes
when she’s the one being audacious!” 1
Everyone in the hall shot up from their seats as they
pointed at Amelia in disdain. The paparazzi,
meanwhile, busied themselves with snapping photos
of the video on the screen and Amelia.
Amelia’s face turned pale in shock. This was the
outcome she never anticipated. 1
Amelia reeled back in disbelief and confusion. ‘Isn’t
this supposed to be the part where Charmine’s
ridiculed and slandered? Why me!?’ She turned her
gaze toward Simon and gave him a death glare.
“Prince Simon, why did you do this? Why did you set
this up?!”
“Set this up? Set what up? Didn’t you come and
seduce me? And made me say what isn’t true? I’m
sorry, but I don’t do such a thing.”
With that, Simon turned to the audience and
continued, “I’ve never cheated on my wife. Moreover,
there’s nothing in between Charmine and me; the
rumors are all made up by Amelia Jordan. She
wanted to use you all to destroy Charmine.”
His words were clear and convincing, and every
attendee grew even more restless.
“I can’t believe this! Did Amelia use paparazzi like us
as ammunition?!”
“She’s far from the blunt and straightforward image
she tried to fool us with! She’s an evil being!”
