Encore of the Avenging Muse (Sylvia and Rupert)

Chapter 270

As soon as Hilbert saw Sylvia enter the room, he was ready. He pulled out the jewelry in his hand.

"I've already had it checked. The sapphire on this brooch isn't the one I entrusted to Sylvia."

"I have the gem's certificate and the receipt with Sylvia's own signature."

"This clearly shows she had planned this long ago. Everything today was just a trap she set."

As Hilbert laid out his accusations, Bridget, standing among the crowd, shot a threatening glance at Freya.

Earlier, Freya had nearly blurted out Bridget's name during the live stream, so Bridget had made sure to have a word with her before they came downstairs.

Freya didn't let Bridget down. She stood there wrapped in a bathrobe, glaring darkly at Sylvia.

The next moment, she burst into tears, crying out her innocence.

"It wasn't me! I was framed by Sylvia too! I had no idea she stole Mr. Carmen's jewel! Sylvia, how could you do this to me and Mr. Carmen? I can't go on!"

With that, she ran towards a column, intending to hurt herself.

The crowd was momentarily stunned, and by the time someone rushed forward to stop her, Freya had already hit her head and was bleeding.

Don't be fooled by her usual timid demeanor; Freya was actually more unhinged than Bridget. She would do anything to achieve her goals-begging, confessing, even self-harm.
