Wendy’s face had gone pale. She knew that after being seen with Reese tonight, there was no salvaging he reputation. But she couldn’t ept that Lily would walk away clean and untouched.

She wanted to shove all the me onto Lily, hoping to gain some sympathy. Who would’ve thought James would side with Lily so tantly, and that he’d have video evidence of my meeting with Reese?

The footage had sealed her fate. Even if she never truly cared about Reese, even if she had no intention o Jeeping with him, everyone would assume she’d failed in her scheme and tried to use her body to appeas

hire

Elsa didn’t look any better. She’d always been exceptional since childhood–loved, admired, a natural

center of attention.

Though she acted above worldly affairs, she cared deeply about what people thought of her. She was proud, aloof and couldn’t bear beingbeled as someonecking virtue.

She had wanted her mother to live with grace and dignity. That was why she had pulled every trick she could think of to make Lily and Wendy reconcile, hoping to spare Wendy from prison.

But this time, not only had Wendy been caught in bed with a married man in front of everyone, James also had damning footage in hand. There was no saving her now.

John Simon, and the others wouldn’t lift a finger to help Wendy again.

Wendy was destined for prison. Elsa had no choice but to cut her losses and make sure none of that filth sshed onto her

She lowered her gaze and stepped back, stubborn band /bpained. Her beautiful eyes brimmed with disappointment toward Wendy.

Asat she had known nothing about what Wendy had done.

As if she were cicly an moocent flower, tainted only by Wendy’s bad name.

Tears shimmered in her eyes bas /bshe asked, fragile and proud, “Mor why would you scheme against Lily like dus? 1 know you don’t want to go to prison. But if that’s the case, you should’ve made amends, tried to not burt her evrimar How could I have a mother su teckless, so cruel? You’ve

Chapter 271 Not My Mom Anymore

She couldn’t help thinking, this mess–wasn’t it all because Elsa’s bn /bhadn’t been airtight? Why bshould /bshe be the one to bear all the consequences for Elsa’s mistakes?

She wanted to tell everyone that Elsa bwas /bthe breal /bmastermind behind it all.

She had enough evidence to bring Elsa down, too. In an instant, dark, twisted, and venomous thoughts flooded her mind–a scorched–earth revenge, dragging them both into ruin.

But bwhat /bkind of gardener would willingly destroy the rose she had raised with such care?

She had poured too much of herself into that little girl.

And her little girl had turned out just as she’d hoped–elegant, striking, and radiant. How could she bear to see bthat /bexceptional child stained by filth?

More than bthat/b, her little girl was adored by Jn and Simon,

If both of them were ruined and disgraced, there would be no redemption.

But if she could protect her little girl now, then when the time was right, her daughter would find a way to Gave her. She could still walk free one day with a mountain of cash–and start over somewhere new, living like royalty.

With that thought, she made her choice, she would take the fall

“Eha, I’m sorry for letting you down.”

She lowered her eyes, her voice breaking with pain and remorse, “I shouldn’t have held a grudge bagainst /bIaly just because she insulted inc. and I definitely shouldn’t have done what I did tonight and brought shame to you. I regret it so much. I’m sorry…”

Elsa knew, then, Wendy was going to take full responsibility. She let out a quiet sigh of relief. Proud as she was, she couldn’t bring herself to how to Lily.

But the situation demanded it. If she didn’t show enough sincerity, it could damage her reputation.

To protect her image, to show everyone that she was nothing like the filthy, shameless Wendy, she awallowed her pride and, with quiet humiliation, bowed her head to Lily.
