Chapter 245: Unfiltered Fear Chapter 245: Unfiltered Fear “So she could be innocent, but she could also be guilty.” Suspicion hung heavy in the air.
Lady Chineye felt her hope slipping away.
Evelyn sighed dramatically beside her, shaking her head as if burdened by disappointment.
“Sister Chineye… I really wanted to believe you, but…” she trailed off, letting her voice carry just enough sadness to plant further doubt in the onlookers’ minds.
The shift was immediate.
The crowd’s expressions hardened.
The security guards, who had initially hesitated, now reached for their handcuffs once more.
Chineye felt a cold sweat break out along her back.
No… this can’t be happening… She could already see the headlines “Lady Chineye, Duke of Tinrin’s Daughter Caught Shoplifting!” Her father’s reputation.
Her family’s honor.
Everything was crumbling.
She barely noticed how some of the wealthier customers had begun to step back, as if standing too close to her might somehow taint their own standing.
Chineye swallowed hard.
She had no choice now.
She would have to fully cooperate with the investigation… and pray that someone, somewhere, would believe her.

The whole world would know once those videos were uploaded.
But as she looked around, all she saw were eyes filled with judgment.
No one was on her side.
And the worst part?
She couldn’t even blame them.
Even she would have doubted herself at this point.
And as she clenched her fists, trying to suppress the tears of frustration welling in her eyes, she heard a voice, calm and composed, yet brimming with something dangerous.
