Chapter 257 Conquer Ben’s Mind

Maggie smiled and added. “There could be numerous reasons–for instance, your family is poor and you saw this as an opportunity to extort money, or perhaps someone instructed you to frame and defame, or maybe you harbour some unsightly secret that I unluckily uncovered.”

“Which of these doesn’t point to a potential slander against me?”

Ben stared blankly at Maggie, the woman’s beauty radiating–the kind that shone brilliantly under the dazzling lights.

Beth had manipulated Ben, she was certain. That woman was the type that wouldn’t do the dirty work on her own unless pushed to the brink.
