Chapter 367 Showing Her True Colors

The innocent look on Kelly's face froze. At that moment, a hint of guilt flashed across her face as though she had been exposed. "Gabriel, what do you mean?"

"What do I mean? Kelly, do you take us as fools? I knew your character from the first time I laid eyes on you. You might look helpless and innocent, but deep down, you're scheming and calculative. You've enjoyed putting on a front and lying to people, so I played along with you. I pretended to believe in you."

Gabriel's voice pierced the air. Kelly found it jarring. A hint of anger appeared on her usually innocent-looking face.

She wondered if he had been lying to her all this time. If he had been, why did he call in Mr. Kane for her yesterday? Since there were people around, it wasn't appropriate for her to ask.

However, Gabriel could read her mind just from her expression. Gabriel cast a meaningful look in the direction of the crystal coffin. Even if Kelly was getting suspicious, he couldn't be the one to reveal the truth to her.

Kelly followed the direction of his gaze, but she remained confused by why he was looking at Oliver's coffin. Gabriel had been playing along with her for days, taking her as a fool. The sheer thought of it infuriated her.

Perhaps Gabriel's confrontation and the will reading performed by Mr. Kane had boosted Kelly's confidence, but for some reason, she didn't feel a need to explain herself.

"Scheming and calculative? Haha..." She scanned the people in the funeral hall without showing any hint of embarrassment or guilt despite Gabriel's exposé and the emergence of the video.

"I get it now. You're... You're all in this to hurt me. This is all part of your trick. You want to destroy me with that video and keep me from inheriting the Young family assets.

"That's very calculative of you all. Too bad Grandpa wanted me to take charge of the Young family! I shall protect everything on his behalf."

As long as she denied the allegations and took charge of the Young family, she could clear her name even if the video was leaked to the public.

She had had her eyes set on the Young family's astronomical wealth. Now that Oliver was dead, and the will had been read, the Young family's wealth was in her hands!

She wanted to keep up her front to retain the loyalty of those working at the Young's House of Jewels, but that no longer seemed necessary.
