Chapter 51

My accusation caused the atmosphere in the dining room to become thick with tension that was not being expressed verbally.

I had reached the end of my patience. I turned to Adrian's parents and spoke to them in a calm and collected manner, saying, "There is something that you all need to know about Lynda. She is not how she pre to be."

The look of surprise that appeared in Lynda's eyes was fleeting, but she swiftly regained her composure. She turned to me with a smile that was so easygoing that it was almost pitying, and she questioned, "W-What are you talking about? What have I done to you?"

After taking my phone, which was sitting on the table in front of me, I scoffed at her and then proceeded to unlock it with my fingerprint.

When I was trying to find Lynda's message that she had sent me the day after the party, I heard Adrian's cold voice.

"Lynda, what is she talking about? What did you do?"

Gradually, I turned my head to look at him. The focus of his gaze was on Lynda. I was either overthinking the situation, or his look was a type of warning to her.

It seemed as though Lynda was not happy with his inquiry.

"Adrian, are you believing this woman over me?"

The question that she asked caused a change in Adrian's expression. His gaze shifted on me. "Show me what you have against her."

I looked away from him and refocused on my phone.

"Found it!" I said and pressed on the message that Lynda had sent me.

Lynda's hand was tightly clasped beneath the table, and I caught a glimpse of it. Because I was seated close to her, I was the only one who could see it.

It was easy for me to sense her anxiety. I thought it was the right time to expose her.
