Chapter 274: Gossip 277

Chapter 277 The Drama Has Begun They were indeed not insane; they were just more daring than others.

#Finished It didn’t matter if they had to suffer in order to harm their enemy. All that mattered was achieving their goal.

Seeing the confusion on Isabella’s face, Alexander took the time to explain to her.

“If this matter were to be revealed in public, it would be futile if Deborah and Damien expose Oliver.

Because despite being manipulated, something did happen between Damien and Deborah. Do you still remember how Oliver cooperated during the engagement?

Isabella came to a realization. “If all this had happened before the engagement, it could have been spun differently. They could claim that they had feelings for each other. But the moment they got engaged, their status changed, and so did the nature of their transgression.”

Alexander nodded. “Even if the Winters family knew that Damien was framed, they wouldn’t want to endure any more damage from the scandal. They had to make a choice of protecting one of their sons. and since Damien was already ruined, their choice would be to protect the apparent victim, Oliver. As for Deborah, they will have no choice but to let her go, to find another partner for marriage. Justice didn’t matter in such situations; what mattered was the interest of the entire family. And as for the Carney family, they will not have any choice.

Isabella’s breaths grew heavier. “They’re so cruel. It’s no surprise that they’d want to harm Damien, but to hurt an innocent girl for their own selfish desires and subject her to such pain? Have they no conscience?”

With a snigger. Alexander remarked, “Indeed, they don’t have any conscience.”

“Since we’ve managed to stop it now, can we still expose the truth?” Isabella really didn’t want the bad guys to get away with their actions.

Alexander said. “That’s their business. It’s up to them to decide.

While they were speaking, Alexander’s phone began to vibrate.

After a brief glance, he proceeded to open the window. Shortly after, a figure emerged from the darkness.

Immediately, the figures of Elaine and Roland came into view, accompanied by a doctor as they entered the room through the window.

As soon as Elaine entered, she hurriedly carried Deborah out. Seeing Deborah unconscious, she furiously pounded the pillow. “I swear I’m going to beat those jerks to a pulp.”

The check–up was brief. As soon as the injection was administered, Deborah began to awaken.

Damien’s condition was a bit more complicated. After receiving an injection, he still needed to have his wounds treated.

While waiting for Damien to come out, Deborah regained consciousness.

As soon as she awoke, she was jolted upright, clearly sensing something was off about her condition. She had fallen asleep too quickly and too deeply. Upon waking, she instantly shifted into a state of high alert.

Chapter 277 The Drama Has Begun The unusual circumstance caused her face to drastically change. “What happened to me?”

Finished Isabella quickly recounted the sequence of events, and finally asked, “It was Oliver who drugged you, wasn’t it?”

All color drained from Deborah’s face, her entire body trembling. Clenching her teeth, she said, “It was!”

Just as she was about to ask something else, a groan echoed from the bathroom.

Deborah’s face turned even paler.

Isabella thought she was worried about that matter, so she reassured Deborah, “You haven’t been hurt at all. Rest assured that he held back.”

Elaine, on a lighter note, joked, “Does Oliver have no clue about Damien’s sexual preference?”

Isabella choked, instantly turning her gaze toward Elaine.

Roland was in the midst of discussing the outside situation with Alexander. Upon hearing these words, he was immediately rendered speechless, responding, “Don’t go around spreading rumors that Damien likes.

men.”

Elaine gave a nonchalant shrug. “Isn’t it obvious? This guy has been single forever. I’ve been suspecting that he might be into one of the guys in our group. Probably, he’s been single all this time because he knows he can’t win him over.

After speaking, she then turned to Isabella with a playful grin. “In fact, I suspect your husband to be the guy.”

Isabella really couldn’t hold it in and burst out laughing.

Isabella thought, Elaine does have a knack for this; she got half of it right! It’s true that he’s attracted to someone within the group, and because he knew his target was unattainable, he remained single. But… It’s so far off the mark! If Oliver had this kind of wild imagination, I wonder if the victim of tonight’s plan would have been one of the guys from the group. Hahaha!

Alexander thought, You sure have a wild imagination.

“What are you laughing at? Do you think my analysis is absurd?” Elaine pointed at Deborah and said, “She is undeniable proof. Despite taking those drugs, he’d rather hurt himself than harm her.

Other than him being attracted to men, where else could such willpower come from? I can’t think of any other explanation.”

Isabella thought, Could it be possible that the restraint was due to the overwhelming affection?

Because he fears seeing the disdain in Deborah’s eyes if he were to hurt her!

“Is. Is that so? Hahaha, I’ll have to keep a closer eye on my husband from now on.”

Elaine burst into laughter, while Roland couldn’t help but burst out laughing too.

Alexander was rendered speechless.

Everyone was bantering with each other, which helped Deborah to calm down. As for the random remarks made by Elaine, she naturally didn’t believe them, as she had more faith in Damien’s character.

Chapter 277 The Drama Has Begun #Finished Just then, there was a stir from the restroom. It was the doctor calling them in for assistance.

After entering. Roland quickly assisted Damien, who had a change of clothes, to step out, Damien’s face was etched with exhaustion, but he still managed to lift his gaze to check on Deborah’s condition at the earliest opportunity.

Just that one look was enough to send a jolt through Deborah, causing her eyes to flicker with a newfound realization. It was as if a new possibility had begun to take root deep within her heart.

“Deborah, you’re alright, aren’t you?” Damien awkwardly said, “Don’t worry. Nothing happened between us.”

Deborah nodded, her gaze gradually turning what you think, I won’t let this matter slide. She said. “Tve heard about what happened. Regardless of Damien paused, slowly recalling the despair he felt earlier as his gaze grew resolute. “I… agree with you.” he said. “But you need to understand, if we expose this publicly…

“I don’t care about the rumors and gossip. No one can set me up like this!”

Damien looked at Deborah, and in the end, he nodded.

Isabella glanced at them, one after the other. Oh ho, the drama begins.

Just as she was deep in thought, she felt a tap on her shoulder from Elaine.

Isabella looked over, a quizzical look in her eyes.

Filled with admiration. Elaine stated, “There’s something special about you. Following you has indeed led to a huge drama.”

Isabella thought. Thank you?

The events that followed were all arranged by Damien and Deborah. They both stepped back, waiting to see how things would unfold.

Once they stepped outside, they realized that everyone had finished their search with Oliver with no results. The situation had become increasingly dire, especially upon discovering a room with clear signs that it had been recently used for a romantic rendezvous.

Oliver and Ruby were absolutely certain that Damien and Deborah had moved there to carry out their rendezvous, and now, they had managed to slip away.

The smug expressions on Oliver and Ruby’s faces made it seem as if their plan had already succeeded.

The simultaneous disappearance of the two, coupled with the suspicious circumstances, started to make even the most skeptical among the crowd to let their imaginations run wild.

Lydia wore a grim expression until she saw Isabella and Alexander appear in the ballroom.

Meanwhile, the call to the Carney family finally went through.

As soon as the call connected, Deborah’s calm and cool voice came through. “Dad, what’s going on? Why are you calling me so many times?”
