Chapter 244: The Proof was Gone Chapter 244: The Proof was Gone “Wait… is she saying that Evelyn has a history of being bad?” Evelyn, for the first time, looked slightly rattled.

But she quickly recovered, putting on an indignant expression.

“Sister Chineye, I do not know what you are trying to say!

What mischievous things?

Why are you trying to frame me just because you got caught?” Chineye let out a hollow laugh, one of bitter realization.

“I have misjudged you,” she said, shaking her head.

“I thought you were a good person.

I thought you were my friend.

My other friends warned me about you, but I always dismissed their concerns.

I kept you close because I didn’t want to believe that they were right.

I thought they looked down on you just because you came from a poor background.

I didn’t want there to be a divide between us.” Her voice cracked slightly.

“But this?

This is how you repay me?” Evelyn’s expression flickered, just for a moment, but she quickly masked it with another wounded look.

“Sister Chineye, how can you say that?

You’re just trying to push all the blame on me!” “No, Evelyn,” Chineye said firmly, her eyes darkening.

“I am finally seeing you for who you really are.

And after today, I will never call you my friend again.” A tense silence filled the room.

The audience, once swayed by Evelyn’s pitiful act, now looked at her with uncertainty.

Doubt had been planted, and it was growing fast.
