Chapter 64
Loraine’s lips curled into a smile, her eyes gleaming with triumph. “Don’t worry, Keely. You’ll soon understand what I’m talking about.” She paused, savoring the moment. “I brought this microphone for my speech on stage. But it seems it’s found a more… entertaining purpose tonight. Get ready for the show, everyone!”
With a smooth motion, Loraine handed the microphone to Cayson. Without needing to be told, he knew exactly what to do.
Keely’s eyelid twitched, panic flooding her once again. She mumbled in a guilty tone, “Well, I… I’m not seriously injured. Marco, please don’t blame Loraine. Just let her go, okay?”
Marco’s brow furrowed in suspicion. Something about the situation wasn’t adding up.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t want me to be held accountable,” Loraine replied coldly. “But for me, this is far from over.” She took a step closer, her voice steady and resolute. She was ready to take her revenge tonight.
As Keely’s body trembled, Cayson gave a silent command to one of the media staff to connect the microphone to the speaker.
In an instant, the sharp sound of Keely’s voice echoed throughout the banquet hall, making everyone fall silent.
“Loraine, you bitch! It’s all because of you! My life would be perfect if you just disappeared from this world!” Keely’s vicious words shattered the carefully crafted façade of innocence she’d worn for so long, exposing the depth of her malice.
The guests stood frozen for a moment, their jaws dropping in disbelief. Then, murmurs of shock and disdain rippled through the crowd.
“Wow! She’s a complete liar! I almost believed her earlier.”
“Yeah, Keely looks so innocent, but she’s a snake. What a disgusting person.”
“Unbelievable! She must have fallen down the stairs just to set Loraine up. If I were in Loraine’s shoes, I don’t think I’d have the strength to deal with my husband’s mistress like this.”
