Chapter 226
In the past, Russell would’ve left the situation to Yvette.
However, he no longer trusted Yvette.
“This is an important matter. I nearly died because of that young lady, so I need to get to the bottom of it. Edmund, bring that young lady in black to me now!” Russell declared.
All color on Yvette’s face paled to a chalky white as panic rose in her heart.
She glared at Arielle furiously.
In return, Arielle shrugged and responded, “My darling cousin, that young lady in black isn’t me. Why are you glaring at me?”
Russell turned to look at his daughter, who
hurriedly offered a smile.

“Arielle, you must be mistaken. I’m wearing a pair of black contact lens which might be scary when I look at someone. If you dislike it, I shall not look at you.”
Arielle shook her head. “I must’ve been mistaken, then.”
Yvette was raging inwardly, but she had no choice but to force out a smile.
Ugh, this is terribly frustrating!
Right then, a tied-up Shandie was brought in by the bodyguards.
There was a towel stuffed in her mouth. Upon seeing Yvette, she started struggling and yelling, but her voice was muffled.
It was right at this moment that fear crept into Yvette’s heart
She had prepared the evening gown for Arielle. After all, she could pin the blame on Arielle and silence her once and for all, but unexpectedly it was Shandie who ended up wearing the black dress.
It’s Arielle! She saw through my plan and gave the dress to Shandie! What a scary woman! Sweat formed on Yvette’s forehead as she lowered her gaze fearfully. She stared at her feet and prayed that her scheme wouldn’t be revealed.
At the sight of Shandie’s predicament, Arielle pretended to ask in astonishment, “Shandie, it’s you? How could you show up in this dress ? Don’t you know Uncle Russell hates the color black?”
Shandie was furious and humiliated, but her mouth was stuffed, and she could only wail in desperation.
Russell immediately felt dizzy at the sight of Shandie’s dress.
The butler immediately grabbed a white towel to cover Shandie up so Russell could calm down.
Still, he couldn’t hold back his fury. “Shandie Southall! Are you here to upset me?”
