Still, Autumn’s ability had gone beyond anything they’d expected, but a wornan who relied on men to hold her ground was never going to get far. Without any real skills, she was nothing more than window dressing And no matter how attractive the packaging, it was all for shownice to look at, but worthless when it came to substance. The day someone grew tired of looking at it, it would be tossed aside, just like Julian had once been madly in love with her, only to later be dazzled by the wider world. No matter how attractive the arm candy at home was, she could never compete with someone who brought real value to the table. That was when Luna spoke slowly. “Miss Lewis, this was originally your personal matter. We hadn’t planned on bringing it up. noveldrama“But since you insisted on pressing for answers, leaving us no choice, we can’t help you keep it quiet now.” The rumor had already spread through Vanguard. They were simply taking advantage of the moment, using it to their own benefit. For original chapters go to ⓝovelFind.netAutumn had been pushing so aggressively, demanding they explain, so they could only use this to turn the tables. If she hadn’t brought this on herself, they wouldn’t have aired her dirty laundry in public. It was all her own doing. Now they’d see whether Keith, once he saw her “true colors,” would still treat her the same way. Autumn’s lips curled in a cold smile. “You’re getting better and better at making things up. Tell me, exactly when did you ‘catch ‘me? “You’re claiming I had something with Ethan and that you walked in on it. Then show me your evidence. “If you don’t have proof, and you’re spouting this garbage, I can sue you for defamation and let you enjoy a stay behind bars.” She tipped her chin toward Julian. “Don’t forget, his sister is still wearing an ankle monitor for a defamation charge. “Once it’s proven, defamation is a criminal offense, and it comes with custody time. You might want to think carefully before you keep talking. “And don’t come crying to me later, accusing me of being heartless if things blow up in your faces. If you’re not sick of yourselves, I’m already sick of you. “” Of course, she knew what they were trying to do-she was simply pretending not to. Jasmine wanted to cozy up to Keith, so she was trying to ruin Autumn first. A sly, underhanded move-one that would have worked perfectly if Keith were like her brothers, the type to believe whatever he was told without caring about the truth. That would mean believing Jasmine’s nonsense. Jasmine’s face froze. She immediately shut her mouth. She’d heard all about Sienna’s situation-how Autumn had turned the tables on her, and now the court was monitoring her every move. With lawsuits piling up, one wrong step and she’d be eating prison food. Rumor had it she’d ended up in such a mers perisply because she’d crossed Autumn That woman was dangerous and unhinged Jasmine had no deelte to end up behind bars, so she could only swallow her words, peen it it burned. Still, she didn’t want to loer this perfect chance to get close to Keith Feeling a twinge of grievance, she said, “Miss Lewis, I only stated a fact. Why get so worked “Could it be you’re just lashing mit because you’re embarrassed? Fine, I’ll drop it. After all, with Me Siorfair being your nor who’d dare touch you, am I right?” Her work were aimed squarely at Keith, making it clear Autumn couldn’t easily wash her hands of this Autumn picked up her phone from the table and gave it a little wave in Jasmine’s direction. “I’ve recorded everything you just said. Better start thinking about how you’ll explain it to the police later.”
