When Elise heard that, she yanked the hairpin out of her hair. She stared at the tiny camera hidden under the pearl, totally shocked. "What the heck? I just bought this from the mall yesterday. How could someone mess with it already?" Thinking about Joyce finding out the truth, Elise started crying, feeling super guilty.

Seeing her like that, Derek quickly tried to calm her down. "I'm not blaming you, Elise. Think hard, has anyone else touched this hairpin besides you?"

Elise shook her head. "Nope, after I bought it yesterday, I put it in my bag. I was home alone last night; even Leo didn't come back. I have no clue when this camera got put on."

The more she talked, the more upset she got. If she hadn't worn this hairpin to the hearing, Joyce wouldn't have found out the truth.

She shook her head, feeling guilty. "Derek, you gotta believe me. I didn't put the camera there. I really don't know what's going on."

Seeing her guilt and fear, Derek pulled her into his arms. He softly comforted her, "No one's blaming you. It just means the other side is really good at this, and they're targeting you. I think their goal is not just to mess things up between Joyce and Sebastian but also between us. Who do you think would hate to see us together the most?"

Hearing his words, Elise immediately said, "Cordelia. She doesn't want us together, but she's in prison. How could she set all this up?"

Derek frowned. "Maybe there's someone else who hates us being together even more. I'll look into it. Let me take you home first. Don't stress about it. Since it's already happened, we'll deal with it together."

He drove Elise home. As she got out of the car, her eyes were still red. She waved at him. "Be careful on the road."
