Chapter 154 âHuh?â
Care? Protect?
Tiffany had told her to laze around and not work hard since they were kids, so Charmine would turn out useless in the future.
Tiffany had told her to dress uniquely, to stand up bravely from the rest and encouraged her to dress cheaply and inelegantly since they were kids. Tiffany gradually shaped her into a disturbing figure in the family since they were kids. Was this the care and protection Joey was talking about?
Unbothered to even entertain, Charmine level-headedly spoke, âWhoâs the inhuman one here? Who harmed so many people in order to harm me and acted innocent in front of everyone? Tiffany Jordan, why donât you become an actress instead of a model?â
âYour crying is so good. Why donât I film a video of you and post it on Twitter to get you more popular out there?â
Tiffanyâs face stiffened. Charmine was obviously pushing her! How could she be so evil?
Tiffany concealed her fury with a pathetic expression. âCharmine, what do I say to make you believe me? If Mom hadnât stopped me, I wouldâve died from ramming against the wall, but Mom was right. Whatâll happen to her if I die? She had raised me for so many years; I donât want my mom to go through the pain of losing a daughter.
âIâll swear to God, alright? I swear to God: If Iâm involved in this incident in any way, my parents will leave me and despise me, turning me into an abandoned orphan and die alone!â swore Tiffany, as sincere as she could, all while she sobbed painfully.
Everyone stared in shock; the vow was cruel. They pitied Tiffany for going through such pain, and even Drakeâs eyes softened a little. Had he misjudged Tiffany?
Charmine scoffed to herself watching her imposing act. A cruel vow it was, but was she not already an orphan unwanted by her actual parents?
Tiffany continued to hold her act as she lamented her terrible fate of being misunderstood and unloved by her loved ones.
âSince sheâs so into her act, why not make it happen for her?â Charmine mused to herself as her lips curled into a smirk. âI wouldâve fallen for your act, but sadly, I have evidence here.â With that, she tossed a stack of photos toward Tiffany.
The photos were taken backstage of the Mercedes Auto Show: A photo captured the exchange of looks between Tiffany and Veronica, another photo captured the evil look on Tiffanyâs eyes watching Veronica, and one was showing Tiffany transferring the money to Veronica!
The transaction amount was 19,500 bucks, and that was the exact price for the halophilic bacteria, the price admitted by Bob the dealer! The transaction date was also the date admitted by Veronica during the trial!
Everyone stared at these photos with looks of disbelief.
âDear me! How can Tiffany be so evil?â
âThe evidence makes sense. Itâs obvious Tiffany was part of this.â
âWhat did Charmine do to her that made Tiffany hate her so much? She looked like sheâd kill her!â
âHeavens! And she acted so convincingly earlier, even going as far as smashing her head against the wall and making a cruel vow..! I canât believe she can be so evil!â
âThis is terrifying! I always thought she was kind and gentle, but look at her in this photo... She looks terrifying!â
Everyone was in turmoil about the photos, and even Joey-who was holding onto Tiffany slowly removed her hand. âTiffany...â
Joey quavered. âWhat are these?â
