Chapter 617 The World Will Know Her Innocence and Truth
“I told Joe that I liked the car, and he got me one too. Seems like he doesn't love you all that much. After all, I can easily get my hands on what you have."
As Chloe looked at the car keys in Xavia’s hand, she froze. A trace of emotion appeared on her face moments later. She felt an overwhelming sense of humiliation as a mocking voice echoed in her ears, taunting her with the words, "See? This is the man you loved, whose love is nothing more than a mere imitation."
Xavia inched closer toward Chloe, her voice dripping with venom as she said in a low tone, "I’ll let you in on a secret. It was me who manipulated Icarus into defaming you. And to my surprise, Joe readily believed it. His feelings for you were merely superficial. Your relationship is incapable of enduring even the slightest test."
Chloe trembled as her eyes filled with hatred. "So it was you..."
At that moment, she finally grasped the reason behind Icarus' sudden actions. She should have realized it earlier. If she and Joseph parted ways, there was only one person who stood to gain— Xavia.
"That's right. It was me. I was so happy to see you being wronged and your name being tarnished," Xavia taunted, her smile radiant.
People who knew no better would have thought that they were good friends. They would not believe that Xavia was capable of uttering such venomous words.
Consumed by her rage, Chloe momentarily forgot about her pregnancy and lunged toward Xavia.
"Ah!" Xavia panicked and dodged, pretending to be the victim as she fled. "Help! She's crazy! Someone help me!"
Upon hearing her cries, the security guards rushed over and quickly restrained Chloe.
"Miss, please calm down."
"Wouldn’t you be angry too if you lost your relationship, your home, and even the father of your child due to someone's slander?!" Chloe shouted, her chest rising and falling with the intensity of her anger.
She wanted Xavia dead!
The guards were at a loss due to her outburst.
From a distance, Xavia said through the crowd, "Guard, she's pregnant and her emotions have been unstable. Maybe that's the cause of her outburst. Can you take her to the psychiatric department to have her checked? I'll cover the expenses."
"That isn't within the scope of my job," the guard said hesitantly.
"Just look at her unstable emotions and potential for violent outbursts. What if she harms other patients? Just consider it as doing a good deed. I'm also pregnant. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother you. She's my friend, and I'm genuinely worried about her."
As Xavia spoke, she wiped away a tear, appearing sincerely concerned.
Chloe felt a wave of nausea when she heard what Xavia said. "Shut up, you wretched woman! Everyone, come and take a look at her. She's a homewrecker who climbed into my husband's bed while I was away and the child in her belly belongs to my husband!" Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
This effectively cast the attention of the people around them to Xavia, whose face turned pale. She quickly handed a fistful of bills to the guard and hurriedly left the scene to find Joseph.
Chloe made great efforts to communicate with the guard and clarify the situation. Then, she turned back, determined to tell Joseph what had just happened. As she entered the VIP ward area in the elevator, she could not help but quicken her pace. The world would soon know her innocence and truth. At that time, she would no longer have to suffer in silence.
At that thought, Chloe felt a tingling sensation in her nose, and her eyes became red and teary.
