Chapter 311
The Heiress Strikes Back
311 Yumi Strikes Back
Yumi sat on her knees.
The situation seemed terrible. She was trembling and couldnât say a word.
âI remember that the color of this lipstick is what Anna often uses, right?â There were whispers from the crowd.
âWhy is it always so noisy here?â The director of the casting selection walked over.
A girl pointed at Yumi and said loudly, âMr. Xander, I suspect that Yumi is being bullied!â
Mr. Xander looked at the mirror. âA blood letter? Are you crazy? Bullying people by writing such words?â
âMr. Xander, this looks like lipstick. From the color, itâs something Anna often uses.â Xenia quickly put on a humble and polite expression to help Yumi out of the situation.
âAnd what is this?â Xander couldnât help but ask as he glanced at the torn cloth beside his hand.
âThose are Yumiâs clothes from the last competition.â Whitney walked out. âMr. Xander, Iâve already checked the corridor for surveillance cameras, but I still want to know whatâs going on.â
Xander glanced at Whitneyâs serious face and pondered for a moment. âCall Anna over immediately.â
A moment later, Anna walked in. She thought that the director was looking for her for something; she didnât expect to be shocked by the words on the mirror.
âItâs not me! Am I crazy to do such a thing? Although Yumi made things difficult for me in the last round and even pretended not to see me, we havenât crossed paths since the competition ended! Besides, am I the kind of girl who will bully others in the directorâs heart?â
âThen, is this lipstick yours?â Sharon took out the lipstick and shook it in front of Anna.
âThis... How could this be... This lipstick is almost used up, so I casually threw it into the trash can when I was packing up. If I did it, why would I have left the lipstick at the scene? Itâs too obvious!â
As if she didnât believe her, Whitney kept staring at Anna.
âMaybe... someone wanted to frame me for this!â Anna kept defending herself.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou mean that if you did it, your methods would be so subtle that nobody would notice?â
Anna didnât even know how to explain it to Whitney. âNo! No... I mean Iâve never bullied anyone.â
âIn that case, the director and the production crew are all here today. When Yumi recovers, weâll discuss why she fainted last time. What do you think?â
Whitney looked at Annaâs green face and couldnât help but reveal what had happened last time.
Everyone was surprised. They didnât expect a girl like Anna to do such a thing.
âAre they telling the truth?â Mr. Xanderâs face darkened. I had been wondering who to eliminate between Yumi and Anna, but I didnât expect this girl to do such a thing at this critical moment.
âI... I didnât! I didnât threaten her. I just casually said a few words, but I didnât expect her reaction to be so big. I explained to the staff that I didnât know her illness was so serious, so I joked with her. Who wouldâve thought she would faint over such a small matter?â Anna bit her lower lip and shivered.
âJoking? You still think that destroying someoneâs important thing is a âsmall matterâ and a joke, right?â Yumi stood up slowly, her face pale. âYou actually told everyone that I fainted because my endurance wasnât good enough... Do you think you can distort the truth just because I fainted on the bed? I targeted you in the last round because I didnât want to argue, but what about you?â
âMy friends know how much effort Iâve put into the casting selection. Iâve always admired everyone and feel that it takes a lot of courage to stand on the stage. What reason do you think I have to ruin my hard work? And what about you? Do you have any objections to the crowdâs vote by constantly slandering and bullying me?â
Anna was shocked to see Yumi say this. This isnât right! This isnât right! Yumi wasnât like this in the past. She has always been submissive, and she doesnât even dare to look at the other contestants. How could she say such things so seriously and loudly now, making everyone look at me... Also, why is that woman standing there...
Anna looked at the other contestant in the same group, who only smiled faintly.
âAnna?â Mr. Xander no longer believed her...
âDo you have any evidence? Youâre the one who framed me, right? And your dirty trash clothes-I havenât even touched them. What nonsense are you talking about!?â
