Chapter 179
When Phoebeโs motorcycle skidded in the racing game, Reece was married. Back then, it felt weird that, because Phoebe and Brenda were excellent motorcyclists, Pinele shouldnโt make such a fundamental mistake. In the end, Phoebe turned it into a trap set up by Jarmina. She would have been in the hospital if she hadnโt corrected her metaphysics.
She mentioned that her injuries would have been more severe then, if the dudes had a narrower age range. In other words, Sienna had tried to kill Phoebe. Attempted murder was totally unforgivable to Deere.
Sienna shook her head with feigned intensity. โNo, Lutut. I didnโt say that Phoebe caused or to fall down the stairs. I suspected I had tripped for some supernatural reason, and Joshua got me wrong.โ She tried her best to excuse herself. โI didnโt cure Phoebe. No, I didnโt.โ
Jad heard Sienna from the table. Astonishment appeared on his face. He said to the camera, โSienna, you implied that Phoebe was the culprit. Thatโs why I came to question her.โ
What did Sienna mean? Wasnโt she passing the buck? Between her reputation and Joshua, she chose the former without hesitation. She looked at Joshua in surprise. โJoshua, I didnโt mention Phoebeโs name at all.โ
โYou misunderstood me and dashed to question Phoebe. Wounded on the bed, I couldnโt stop you in time.โ
โYou suspected Phore of being the culprit, so I couldnโt help but wonder whether she was.โ With an innocent look, she added, โJoshua, what a misunderstanding?โ She intended to soothe Joshua later. Now, she felt sorry for him.
Joshua was so furious that he laughed. โAll my bad, none?โ He regretted his impulsiveness. He thought, โShe is guilty. Thatโs why she refuses to admit her problem.โ He then remembered what Sienna had said upon waking up. According to her plot, Phoebe is supposed to be in the hospital, wounded, he thought. At that moment, Joshua felt despair. โSheโs the person I trusted and protected. How absurd I was!โ Joshua thought.
Sienna added, โI know that this misunderstanding resulted from your concern about me, Joslina.โ
She then looked at Phoebe and said, โPhoebe, Iโm sorry for the misunderstanding.โ She seemed to want to end the farce as soon as possible. Phoebe smiled at Sienna. โSienna, just a misunderstanding!โ
โI already swore before the camera that I didnโt take the initiative to harm you.โ
โNow, itโs your turn.โ Do you have the guts to swear that you didnโt curse me?โ
Phoebe was determined to teach Sienna a lessonโa lesson that every evil mind would be punished. Sienna had instigated Joshua to cause trouble for Phoebe, so there came the backlash. Sienna glared at Phoebe. She hated Phoebe, who was determined to humiliate her in public.
โDamn! I got tricked again,โ she thought, with tears. Sienna shook her head as she argued, โI didnโt curse you. There is a misunderstanding.โ
Phoebe raised her eyebrows. โSwear, so we will know whether there is a misunderstanding. I am not interested in your argument.โ โLike me, all the viewers want to hear you swear for your innocence.โ
Phoebe pushed Sienna. Instantly, many comments were sent to urge Sienna to swear. As the victim of the backlash, Sienna didnโt dare to sweat. Her inaction would make things worse. After a moment of thought, she looked at Jamar tearfully and pleadingly. She wished Jamar to help her. Jamarโs scalp tingled for Siennaโs gaze.
Joshua had gone to confront Phoebe because of Siennaโs pitiful look. Now, Sienna played the same old trick on Jamar. โAm I that stupid in her eyes?โ Jamar couldnโt help but wonder. He now knew that Sienna was the troublemaker and that she got a backlash after her plot failed. โShe was indignant after she woke up. Then, she instigated Joshua to slander Phoebe in public. She tried to ruin Phoebeโs reputation,โ Jamar thought.
He had been lately alerted that Sienna was sly, but he didnโt expect her to be so evil. It was Sienna who instigated Joshua to confront Phoebe before the camera, though she didnโt let Phoebeโs name cross her lips. Both Jamar and Reece were the witnesses. They had double-checked with Sienna whether she was sure that Phoebe was the culprit. Right before the witnesses, Sienna played the innocent and passed the buck to Joshua.
Jamar felt both disappointed and scared. He wouldnโt fall for the trick that got Joshua trapped. Besides, he didnโt trust Sienna as much as before. Therefore, he shifted his gaze away from Sienna as if he didnโt notice her pleading eyes.
Sienna couldnโt help but think that her brothers had become unreliable. Turning with rage, she looked at Reece. She then saw distance and anger in his eyes. Shocked, she knew that Reece would not help her either.
Reece said with a long face, โSwear now. It is useless to look at me and Jamar.โ Sienna could not swear or admit her wrongdoing. In the end, she came up with a solution. She became excited in an instant. โI know nothing about that. How could I curse at her! Why are you pushing me!โ She shouted with tears all over her face. โI didnโt. I didnโt curse at her!โ Then, she fell backward onto the bed.
Sienna pretended to faint, so nobody would push her to swear anymore. She understood that the netizens would say something harsh about her little trick. However, she couldnโt come up with a better solution at that moment. The other people in the ward and the viewers were dumbfounded. Nobody got fooled by Siennaโs little trick. Most people were convinced that Sienna was guilty because of her evasiveness and timely fainting. They couldnโt help but ridicule her. Some of Siennaโs fans fell silent, and some gave up on Sienna. The rest spoke up for Sienna and scolded Phoebe for pushing Sienna so hard. They didnโt believe stuff like backlashes. They insisted that it was a trap set up by Phoebe to ruin Sienna. They were unreasonable and abused whoever displeased them. They deliberately sent harsh comments to Siennaโs channel because they knew that Phoebe was watching the show.
Phoebe saw those malicious curses. She would love to teach the trolls a lesson, and there came the chance.
