Chapter 1088: Chapter 1088: Exposing Winifred Drew
Seeing that more and more questioning gazes gathered around her, Winifred Drew couldnât help but turn pale. She hung her head and gritted her teeth, "It wasnât me..."
"Take a look at this!" Xaviera Evans interrupted her, then threw her phone on the table, her mouth slightly curling up, "Miss Drew, youâre not admitting that this incident has anything to do with you. Then why donât you guess what interesting thing I recorded in the hallway?"
Winifredâs eyes became instantly frightened. What was on that phone? Did Xaviera record something?
Impossible! If Xaviera had a recording, she would have accused her with it long ago. Why would she wait until now? So Xaviera must be bluffing her, trying to catch her off guard.
Winifred swallowed nervously, forced herself to calm down, and pretended to be indifferent, "What does it have to do with me whatever you recorded? I said I just greeted Madam Rome and didnât instigate her. She came to the school to make a scene and demand your expulsion entirely because of a misunderstanding. She is a mother, knowing that her sonâs future was ruined for a girl. Canât she get angry? This is all within reason."
"To be honest, from a motherâs perspective, Madam Rome isnât wrong at all. Sheâs just looking out for her son, having also been deceived by Mr. Rome. Besides, Madam Rome isnât a fool. How could she be swayed by someoneâs words?"
After Winifred finished speaking, she looked at Madam Rome with a hint of warning in her eyes.
If Madam Rome admitted that Winifred had stirred her up, not only would Winifred hold a grudge against the Rome family, but Madam Rome would also admit that she was a fool.
Madam Rome looked back at Winifred and slowly lowered her head.
Winifredâs face relaxed a little, it seemed that Xaviera didnât have a recording after all. She was just trying to bluff her. Now that Madam Rome wouldnât accuse her, as long as she didnât admit it, Xaviera couldnât do anything to her.
Just as Winifred smugly thought this, Xaviera suddenly sneered.
Winifred shuddered, her heart raced violently. She was sure Xaviera didnât have a recording, but for some reason, she couldnât help feeling uneasy. She glared at Xaviera viciously, "Why are you laughing..."
ââ âMadam Rome, you should think it over! If Mr. Rome were to break off the engagement because of Xaviera, that would be his problem. However, if Xaviera seduced Mr. Rome and caused his fiancĂ©e to break off the engagement angrily, then Xaviera would be the mistress.â
ââ âMr. Rome has good looks, a wealthy family, and capability. If he could marry the daughter of HoFo Group, his future would certainly be limitless. He must understand this as well. Itâs possible for him to fool around with a girl outside, but thereâs no reason for him to give up HoFo Group for a woman!â
ââ âXaviera knows that Mr. Rome is engaged, and yet she is dating him. If this isnât a mistress, what is it? I think she might have added fuel to the fire when talking to Miss Webster, which led to Miss Websterâs angry breakup. Otherwise, why did Miss Webster choose to break off the engagement at this time? Isnât this too coincidental!â
Listening to the recording coming from the phone, sweat trickled down Winifredâs forehead, her pale lips trembling. She suddenly looked up, shocked at Xaviera.
She actually had a recording!
Everyone in the room turned to look at Winifred, even her friends who had a good relationship with her were stunned. Then they retreated fearfully, finding Winifred, who had one set of behavior in front of others and another behind their back, to be terrifying. You never knew when she might stab you in the back, leaving you unprepared.
The words in the recording were evidence that Winifred had stirred up Madam Rome to create a scene. She had deliberately escalated the conflict, making Xaviera bear the name of a mistress. Perhaps the rumors on campus were also spread by her.
However, just now, Winifred had claimed innocence, saying she only greeted Madam Rome and had been wronged. She seemed so at ease with herself; did she not know what damage these rumors could do to Xaviera?
The looks of disgust and disdain from the surrounding people made Winifredâs face burn, and a bloody taste surged in her throat. She felt weak and filled with shame and fear.
"So it was really Winifred who instigated this. Sheâs such a scheming b*tch!"
"How long has she known Xaviera? Why did she frame Xaviera? Fortunately, Xaviera knows Doreen Yuan, otherwise, she wouldnât have been able to clear her name today."
