Chapter 107 Apologize Now I keenly observed that the moment Levi stepped out of the shadows, Elsa's expression froze over.
"Jane, I was just adjusting the camera angle, and guess what? I happened to capture something pretty interesting." Levi's smirk was sharp, almost taunting, as he looked at Elsa.
I had to hand it to Levi-he always knew exactly what I wanted.
If I hadn't known Levi was nearby, I would have turned around and walked away the moment I saw Elsa. But then everyone would have missed out on such a great show.
Elsa realized it too. As more people gathered, embarrassment flickered across her face. First, she flushed red, then her face turned pale.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI had evidence in my hands proving she tried to frme. As more people gathered, I knew that if I released the video, her reputation would take a serious hit. Even the friend who had defended her earlier would turn against her.
She shota hateful glare as she wished she could tearapart.
Unfortunately, she didn't have the power to do that yet.
To protect her image, she had to wrap this up before the crowd fully formed.
"Forget it, Madison. I must not have been holding it properly." Her voice trembled as she tugged at Madison Simon's sleeve.
But Madison wasn't going to let it go and shota glare. "What do you mean, forget it? She just did this to you! She at least owes you an apology!" Elsa looked up, locking eyes with me.
Seeing the amusement in my gaze, she immediately lowered her head. She tugged at Madison again, her voice soft, almost pitiful. "Just let it go... She's my sister. I don't feel well... Can you takehome?" Madison clearly wanted to confront me, but she couldn't resist Elsa pulling and dragging her away.
In the end, she could only shoota deep glare. The excitement never fully materialized and ended abruptly.
Levi handedthe camera and asked, "Jane, do you wantto upload this video online for you?" I shook my head and explained under Levi's confused gaze, "Now's not the right time. Let's keep the video for now." Elsa's behavior now was only the tip of the iceberg compared to what was to come.
With the level of obsession Jack and Jeremiah had for her, even if I exposed these trivial bits of evidence now, they would still go to great lengths to protect her.
To protect the Brown family and Jack, I still needed more time.
Soon enough, the bouquet cto an end. Our group was leaving the hotel and heading home.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEric had planned on just takinghome, but Levi kept complaining about not being able to get a cab. Reluctantly, I asked Eric if he could take Levi along. Just as we got into the car, my phone lit up with a call. The caller ID "Mom" flashed across the screen, and I sighed deeply.
I answered the call, and Mom's voice cthrough. "Jae, I heard you and Elsa had another falling out?" Before I could speak, Jack's harsh voice cthrough the phone.
"Mom, you're being too gentle about this. What do you mean by 'falling out'? Jane ne is bullying Elsa! She's been crying so hard, she can barely breathe." As expected, Elsa was exactly the type to rush hand play the victim, telling onlike a helpless character.
"So what?" I replied coldly, with a hint of impatience.
Just as Mom was about to speak, Jack snatched the phone away.
om "You're still so defiant If it weren't for you, would Elsa be like this? You'd better cback and apologize to her now!"
I was about to hang up when Dad's voice suddenly cthrough the phone. Just chome. I need to n: ask you a few things." I ended the call and turned to Eric. "Could you taketo my parents' house?"
