Chapter 133: Sean Makes Her Uneasy

For the case involving Hugo, Amber's accusations weren't the most damaging; the real blow was Elizabeth's shocking decision to provide false testimony. She detailed the events with precise dates and settings, creating a story so elaborate it was hard to believe. Who would think someone would accuse their own son of such heinous acts against an adopted granddaughter without any reason-unless it was true? This line of thinking swayed public opinion heavily against Hugo, to the detriment of his and his future in-laws' company stock prices.

"The kind of person Elizabeth is, you've known all along, haven't you?" Tina spoke calmly. Elizabeth, who would sever ties with her own son just to steal a perfume formula, was hardly a saint. Yet, Tina didn't believe that Elizabeth, always driven by self-interest, would help Amber frame her son without a significant motive. Nor did she believe Amber would risk her reputation merely for revenge without being driven by some benefit. But whose benefit was it?

"What do we do now? I went to the police station, but they wouldn't let me see your dad," Jennie choked out. During an investigation, suspects aren't allowed to meet with family.

We saw Amber alone in that room and let our guard down, and this happened," Jayden admitted guiltily. "It was a setup," Tina realized, thinking it through. Her men could handle assassins but not stop police action-a clever trap by the enemies, likely targeting her. "Keep an eye on Jennie and Zackary," she ordered coldly. "We will," Jayden assured her. "And find out who's

detained. Leaning against Jared, Tina allowed herself a moment of rest before borrowing his laptop to dig deeper. She hacked into the surveillance system of the motel where the incident occurred, named Fast Food. The footage revealed its dingy, narrow corridors and worn, dirty carpets. Earlier that day, Amber had called Hugo, pretending to be distraught and inebriated, begging him to pick her up from this seedy motel. Despite everything, Hugo couldn't ignore his foster daughter's plea and had gone alone to help her, walking right into the trap laid for
