Chapter 120
'What is this Eagle Eye system?' Lisa thought in a panic.
She had never even heard of it. She had double-checked with security-no way was there any surveillance in this banquet hall. How could there suddenly be a 360-degree, no-blind-spot monitoring system?
Lisa still couldn't wrap her head around it. But when Linda and Chloe's figures appeared, crystal clear, on the big screen in the banquet hall, she was completely floored. Their conversation was displayed word for word for everyone to see.
“Linda, I still don't get why you had to steal Lucas using such underhanded tactics...”
"Because I was jealous... You were like leaves basking in sunlight, while I was buried beneath the ground... I was going crazy with jealousy..." "...You chose this path... turning your back on a friend who was genuine with you... You sacrificed sincerity and betrayed friendship... Talking about it now is pointless... I don't regret being kind to you..."
"Chloe, you'll never be able to get rid of me, never..."
Every bit of the scene, every truth, was laid bare for everyone. In the video, Linda suddenly grabbed Chloe's arm, then leaned back dramatically, pretending to stumble down a few steps before crashing to the ground. Then came Linda's scream, drawing everyone's attention, followed by her accusing Chloe of pushing her.
The video cut off there.
The entire hall was dead silent. This Eagle Eye system was something else. The projected images were so lifelike that it felt like everything was happening right in front of them. The truth was now glaringly obvious: Chloe hadn't pushed Linda. Linda had staged the whole thing to frame Chloe and play the victim.
From their conversation, people began to pick up on some telling clues.
“So, Linda used dirty tricks to steal Lucas from Chloe? Chloe is so gorgeous. What did Linda do to make Lucas dump such a stunning beauty?" "Look at her pregnant belly. Do you even need to ask?"
"I can't believe Chloe and Linda used to be friends back in high school. Chloe helped her so much, only for her to steal Chloe's boyfriend. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you."
"Chloe's been straightforward from the start. Who would've guessed that Linda, looking all innocent and frail, had such a vicious heart?"
"Lisa's obviously in on it too, swearing up and down that she saw it happen. She clearly was not afraid of her lies coming back to bite her."
"And she had the Meadows family take Linda in as a goddaughter just to spite Chloe. No wonder Chloe decided to cut ties."All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Who would've thought the real daughter of the Meadows family was so twisted? Well, I heard she was raised by a murderer in the slums. Normal people wouldn't even think of such devious tactics, The Meadows family's future looks grim With Lisa in control..."
The whispers and murmurs swirled around them.
Jacob and Leah, watching this unfold, felt a whirlwind of emotions. They had genuinely believed Chloe pushed Linda, never suspecting it was a setup by Lisa and Linda. For the first time, Leah's gaze toward Lisa turned icy.
Everyone was now watching the Meadows family's scandal unfold. Lisa stood there, feeling dizzy and bewildered. Today's grand spectacle of disgrace was meant for Chloe, but she had no idea how it ended up backfiring on her so spectacularly.
