Chapter 318
Ophelia crossed her arms and lifted her lip. โWhy are you all so eager to defend yourselves? Whether this video is real or fake, canโt you just ask my cousin? Heโs loved playing with computers since he was little, so he should be able to tell the authenticity of a few videos.โ
She looked at Xander, โRight, cousin?โ
Erin and Bessie felt a sudden jolt in their hearts and quickly turned to look at Xander, only to see that his face was already clouded with gloom.
โXander?โ Bessie forced a smile and reached out to pull him.
Before her hand could touch his clothes, a look of disgust suddenly appeared on Xanderโs face, as if he had seen something particularly disgusting, and he abruptly pushed her away!
In the next moment, he stumbled, ran a couple of steps, bent over, and said, โUgh-!โ
Lenora was anxious and angry. โBessie, you made my brother sick and throw up!โ
Bessie, who was almost knocked off balance, turned pale instantly.
โXander! Do you, do you not believe me?!โ She approached him with red-rimmed eyes, unwilling to give up as she tried to pull him.
โDonโt touch me!โ Xander suddenly shouted angrily, forcefully shaking her hand away!
The force was too strong, and Bessie let out a scream before falling directly to the ground.
โBessie!โ Erin hurried to help her daughter.
Ophelia watched this development and curled her lips. Xander had a serious psychological obsession with cleanliness, and this time, Bessie was really done for! Marrying into the Whitaker family? Ha, that was more like a daydream!
Xander took a while to recover. He had a sullen expression on his face and stared at Bessie intently. โDid you lie to me?!โ
Thinking of Bessie entwined with different men in the video, recalling how he had held hands and embraced her before, and realizing that he still liked her made him feel so disgusted that he almost threw up again! A handsome face was almost twisted.
โNo, no, Xander, I didnโt!โ Bessie said, her face pale, shaking her head in tears. โI was forced by them, you have to believe me!โ
Forced? Ha, did he think he was blind and didnโt see how slutty she was in the video?
Bessie was about to touch him again when Xander pushed her away once more, saying, โGet lost! The engagement party is off, and donโt come near me againโฆ Ugh!โ
He had red eyes and a pale face. He didnโt care about Bessie, who had fallen to the ground, and, holding back his nausea, turned around and ran away quickly. He had liked Bessie so much before, but now the blow was just too great.
Lenora looked at his somewhat unsteady, fleeing figure and felt a bit uneasy. Ophelia gave her a glance, and Lenora immediately chased after her.
โNo, no. Xander-!โ Bessie was still unwilling to accept the reality, unable to believe that the identity of Mrs. Whitaker, which she was about to obtain, had just slipped away like that!
She got up, wanting to chase after him, but accidentally slipped and fell back down again.
Ophelia looked down at her disheveled appearance and felt extremely pleased. โHow about now, how do you feel inside?โ she asked gently, echoing Bessieโs mocking words from that day back to her exactly as they were.
โOphelia!!โ Bessie suddenly looked up, her tear-streaked face twisted and contorted with hatred. โYou wretched woman, I wonโt let you have it easy!!โ
Ophelia didnโt move her eyes or brows at all and let out a light scoff. โReally? Do you think I would give you that chance again?โ
