“Madelyn, you should use your brain if you want to clear your name. Did you run out of ways to vindicate yourself, and that’s why you came up with such a pathetic lie? What, you don’t like me so you want to pin everything on me, is that it?”

Felicity laughed, covering her nose. “Even if you plan to pin the blame on me, shouldn’t you at least provide some evidence! Words alone won’t cut it, you know!”

Evidence? Of course I have it.

Madelyn suddenly let out a hearty laugh, taking a step forward, her aura evidently outshining Felicity’s

Felicity’s mind flashed back to what Janessa had just said. “Remember, don’t spout nonsense. Just insist that you didn’t do anything. I’ve already erased the surveillance footage. They won’t be able to find anything, so don’t worry.”

With this in mind, Felicity felt even more resolute in her heart.

Regrettably, all of this had been anticipated by Madelyn

She had predicted early on that if she were to accuse Felicity based solely on her inbox, the reasons wouldn’t be substantial enough.
