Chapter 121

Chapter 121:

The ruckus upstairs drew the attention of everyone below. Several voices rang out, curiosity piqued, “What’s happening up there?”

Dane’s brow furrowed as he made his way upstairs.

Josie clenched her teeth. “Who do you think you are? How dare you mess around in here? This is the Johns family’s guest room!”

Her friends exchanged looks of disdain. “Are they servants of the Johns family?”

As soon as Dane appeared, Josie quickly exclaimed, “Dane, this is outrageous! These people are having sex right under your very nose!”

Dane frowned.

The group trailing behind him gasped in disbelief. No one had anticipated such a scandal erupting at the party.

“These servants have no shame, sneaking into the guest room to do something like that. They should be fired on the spot!”

“They ought to be arrested. This is utterly disgraceful!” The crowd murmured in collective outrage.

Josie swelled with pride. She’d never imagined their plan would unfold so flawlessly, yet she feigned embarrassment and concern. “Dane, these two have truly crossed the line. Hold on, who is this woman? Is that… Madisyn?”

Your next tale lives on g Ɐ lnσ ν𝒆 ℓs, com

Everyone fell silent as all eyes turned to the scene, their gazes brimming with curiosity and judgment.

Josie, her stride full of determination, marched over to the woman and wrenched her away from the man.

Everyone craned their necks to catch a glimpse. If it really was Madisyn tangled up with a servant, it would be the talk of the town.

A smug smile played at the corners of Josie’s mouth, but when she glimpsed the woman’s face, she went stiff with shock. “No way…”

Josie clapped a hand over her mouth, completely shocked. “This can’t be happening!”

Everyone else caught sight of the woman’s face as well, and the girls gasped in astonishment. “It’s Kristine!”

Kristine lay unconscious, while the man beside her flailed to cover himself with a blanket.

“Oh my God! It’s Kristine who’s been fooling around with a servant!”

“Is this really how Kristine behaves behind closed doors? She always seemed so pure and untouchable. Given that she tried to frame Madisyn before, I suppose it all adds up. Maybe she’s already given up on herself.”

“This is revolting. They’re both despicable.”

Josie was struck dumb. The fury on Dane’s face told her they were in deep trouble. Still, she tried to explain, “Dane, there’s got to be some mistake!”

“Mistake? Wake her up!” Dane, already angry at Kristine for trying to frame Madisyn, couldn’t believe she’d pull such a stunt in their own home. He yanked a blanket to cover her.

At his command, a servant quickly brought cold water and splashed it onto Kristine’s face.

Kristine jolted awake, blinking in confusion at the crowd that loomed around her. At first, a thrill of excitement surged through her. She realized she was naked and, spotting Josie nearby, assumed everything was unfolding just as planned.

The guests were supposed to catch Madisyn in a compromising position with a vagrant, and then later discover Kristine in a steamy encounter with Andrew. That would tarnish Madisyn’s reputation, clearing the way for Kristine to secure a marriage into the Klein family.

However, she noticed something unsettling in Josie’s eyes.

“What… What’s happening here?” Kristine asked, her voice laced with feigned bewilderment. “What’s everyone doing here?”

Dane’s expression darkened further. Unable to contain himself any longer, he slapped Kristine sharply across the face.

“Dane!” Kristine gasped, her shock palpable. No one had ever laid a hand on her in this house before!

She clutched her cheek, unable to grasp the reality of what had just occurred. Could Dane truly be this enraged over her upcoming marriage to Andrew?

Tears welled up in her eyes as she struggled to hold back her fury. “Dane, what do you mean by this?”

“What do I mean? You’re the one who needs to explain!”

“We’re in love!” Kristine wrapped her arms around herself protectively.

Now that things had gone this far, she was determined to force Andrew into marriage. She spoke with fierce determination.

The guests exchanged shocked glances.

Was Kristine really this desperate? She was in love with this disgusting old man? It was utterly revolting!

Some couldn’t help but feel a twinge of nausea.

Dane was so enraged he could barely speak.

Josie rushed to intervene. “Kristine, don’t do this!”

Kristine felt a jolt of confusion. Why was Josie acting like this? She was supposed to be helping her!

“Is it wrong that we are in love?” Kristine asked, but then she spotted a figure by the door.

Andrew stood there, tall and formidable in a black suit, his commanding presence filling the room.

Kristine froze.

Andrew was standing at the door? Then who was with her?

She whirled around and saw the vagrant sprawled on the bed. This was the man she had arranged to be with Madisyn rather than herself. She recognized him immediately.
