Chapter 254

Evelyn's lips curled into a cold smile as she tapped her wristwatch.

"Time starts now."

Her stilettos clicked sharply against the marble floor as she strode toward Isabella.

Isabella's face paled. She clutched Adrian's sleeve desperately.

"Adrian, help me!"

Evelyn seized Isabella's wrist with a vice-like grip.

"Didn't think about consequences when you framed me?"

"Those recordings were fake!" Isabella's voice trembled.

Adrian barked out a warning. "Evelyn, that's enough!"

Evelyn responded with a sharp elbow strike. Adrian grunted and dropped to his knees.

She yanked Isabella's hair, slamming her onto the floor. The tip of her shoe pressed against Isabella's throat.

"This is payback for your false accusations."

Isabella curled into a whimpering ball, her makeup smeared across her face.

Adrian wiped sweat from his temple, stunned by her combat skills.

Julian whistled in appreciation. "Impressive!"

Evelyn shot him a glacial look. "Mr. Roscente, issue a statement clarifying we have no connection."

Julian grinned and stepped closer. "Come on, we grew up together—"

"Silence." Evelyn turned to Cassandra. "Your turn now."

Cassandra shrieked and stumbled backward. "Cousin, you're setting me up!"

A crisp slap landed across Cassandra's cheek.

"Want to see Lucien's bedroom photos?"

Julian's expression darkened instantly. "Unnecessary!"

A phone notification chimed abruptly.

Cassandra lunged at Julian like a madwoman. "Don't check his phone!"

With deliberate slowness, Evelyn swiped the screen open.

"The good stuff starts at photo three."
