The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He

Chapter 220 No More Excuses

Truth be told, Jyro would’ve gladly shoved the video in James‘ face if he could.

But with his hands and feet tightly bound, there was no way he could reach the phone in his pockets

Ashton bent down and retrieved it for him.

Meanwhile, John had come to the theater to persuade Lily to move back into the marital home. He also hoped to convince her to make peace with Wendy.

Elsa, paranoid that old feelings might reignite between them, had followed close behind.

She thought everything had already gone according to plan–that Lily had been photographed and it was all settled.

Never in her worst nightmares did she expect to hear Wendy’s venomous voice–dripping with malice- just as she and John stepped into the dressing room.

“One million in cash. I brought it. Once you strip Lily and get the photos, I’ll pay the remaining five million. Remember, nothing can go wrong this time!”

Elsa went pale as a sheet, her body barely holding upright. If she hadn’t grabbed John’s arm with all her strength, she would’ve collapsed right there.

Wendy, trying to guarantee nothing went wrong, had delivered the money in person.

She never imagined Jyro would record everything.

Did this mean… her mom was really going to jail?

Elsa hadn’t even recovered from the shock when Lily’s mocking voice cut in, cool and sharp..

“Simon, John, I assume you both just saw the video. Wendy was going to have someone strip me and take those kinds of pictures to force me to ‘reconcile‘ with her. She never intended to leave me alone. All she ever wanted was to destroy me. Now, do you still think I’m being unreasonable for holding her accountable? Are you still going to pressure me into forgiving her?”
