The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 294

Where Loretta fell, there was a set of three steps. In an instant, she tumbled onto them, letting out a painful cry that echoed through the surroundings.

“Rosie, I was just trying to help, why did you push me like that?” Loretta feigned pain, her eyes glistening with tears, creating an image of innocence.

This unexpected turn of events grabbed the attention of the fans near the entrance, and many of them started recording the scene on their phones.

Rosalie looked at Loretta with a cold gaze and retorted, “I didn’t push you, and you know it.”

“Rosie, why say such things? I understand… You’ve only recently been released from prison, and it’s natural to feel a bit unstable. I won’t hold it against you.”

Loretta continued playing the role of the wronged little sister, all while subtly bringing up Rosalie’s past incarceration in front of the onlookers.

For the gossip-hungry fans, this unexpected drama was like a gift.

Lillian couldn’t contain her anger and exclaimed, “Loretta, you’re being despicable!”

Yet Loretta kept up the facade of a vulnerable little sister and added, “Call me whatever you want, but you’re Rosie’s friend. I just hope you can advise her not to make a big deal out of this. It was me she pushed, and I won’t hold it against her. But if she pushes someone else next time, they might not be as forgiving.”

Loretta maintained the act of a good-hearted sister.

Lillian was fuming, never having encountered someone so shameless.

Loretta’s manager, who had helped her up, asked with genuine concern, “Are you alright? Is it serious?”

Loretta bit her lip, her brows furrowing in apparent pain, and replied, “It feels like I twisted my ankle… it hurts quite a bit.” The manager then turned her anger towards Rosalie and scolded, “You’re her sister; how could you treat her this way? Is it because she’s a star and Mr. Gunner’s girlfriend? Are you jealous? You shouldn’t be so jealous…”
