Mystery Bride's Revenge (Selina)

Chapter 288

"Manuel, please, you have to believe me. How could I ever do something to hurt Selina? There must be some mistake!" Ashley cried, clutching at Mamuel's pants. She couldn't afford to be cast our by the Harvey family. Her career had just begun, and Benjamin had just started to fall for her. Everything was going so well. She couldn't understand how it all fell apart so suddenly. Manuel said coldly, "Ashley, go back first. Don't make a fool of yourself heret Whether you did it or not, the truth will come out!"

"Manuel. No. I can't go back. I can't face Mom and Dad like this. I'm being framed, and if they don't believe in my innocence, I'll have no place in the Harvey family. Manuel, if you were in my shoes and being wrongfully accused, how would you feel? Please. Ashley begged.

"If you don't go back and explain now, people will think that you are guilty! If you're really innocent, Mom and Dad will naturally clear your name! If you choose to run away. Ashley, even I won't trust you anymore! Manuel said.

"Manuel, I understand. I'll go back with you. I really didn't do this thing. Please believe me."

Ashley sobbed.

Selina returned home and told Lydia what had happened just now.

Lydia replied immediately. "Oh my goodness! I can't believe I didn't witness such a good scene! What a

a pity!"

"Ashley is in serious trouble now. Her biological mother could show up any moment and expose her fake identity. Then, there's the maid she bribed to frame me, and Benjamin's involvement with those photos. Selina said.

With all three incidents combined, no matter how much the Harvey family loved Ashley, escaping this time would be nearly impossible. The pain Selina endured before her death in her previous life was only a fraction of what Ashley was facing now.

"Selina, you're impressive. I didn't expect you to be so quick and ruthless. Honestly, I'm curious to see if Ashley can manage to escape this mess. If she does, I'll have to give her and the Harvey family some credit. It would definitely make things more interesting" Lydia said. She thought to herself, "It's not over yet. It would be a shame if Ashley just crumbles now. Where's the fun in that?

"She'll get out, but at a heavy price: Selina remarked. From Selina's understanding of the Harvey family, even if Ashley's true color was exposed, they wouldn't completely abandon her. After all, she was still considered family.

However, if her identity as an illegitimate daughter were fully revealed, Sara's hatred for Ashley would run deep. At that time, Quinton's image in Sara's eyes and within the Harvey family would be utterly destroyed. Selina eagerly awaited that day. The current calm was merely the quiet before the storm.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

to see what it's like when Ashley goes back to the Harvey residence! Selina, why don't we go to the Harvey residence now?" Lydia

"Ahhht Now I want to see suggested

"No, Lydia Let's wait and see." Selina was curious to witness what would happen when Ashley returned today. Using her hacking skills, she quickly accessed the Harvey residence's surveillance cameras, even enabling the audio. She shared the feed with Lydia as well Lydia's eyes lit up. "Wow, Selina, you're awesome! I'm going to get some snacks, and we can eat them while watching the show together" Tve got them all ready, Selina said.

"It's so great to have your own servant, unlike me, who has to do everything myself" Lydia pouted.

Manuel brought Ashley back to the Harvey residence. It was the second time Ashley had stepped into the house that day, but everything felt different. She had left full of high spirits, but now she returned with a deathly pale face, drained of all hope, Manuel glanced at Ashley and said, "Go back to your room first"

"Manuel, are you going to tell Mom and Dad what Selina said? But I'm innocent." Ashley said.

I told you to go back to your room first. This issue is too serious for me to handle alone. I can't make any promises by myself! It was the first time that Manuel had scolded Ashley

Ashley knew this was just the beginning unless she could somehow prove her innocence. Unable to argue, the quietly went upstairs to her room. But her mind was already racing, searching for a way out. If things continued like this, she knew she'd be kicked out of the Harvey family sooner or Later. Once Selina fully reclaimed her place in the Harvey family, there would be no room left for her. She needed to start planning for her future. When Manuel entered the living room. Lloyd and Joseph were still debating whether they should inform the others about Ashley framing Selina. "Moon's mental state is not stable now. She has been worried about Selina. If she knows that Ashley is such a person..." Joseph shuddered just thinking about it.

"Joseph, what should we do then? If Ashley's been putting on an act this whole time, we can't let everyone keep being fooled by her," Lloyd said. disgust evident in his voice. The thought of how Ashley had maintained her gentle, kind, and innocent facade for so many years made him feel

She had always pleaded on Selina's behalf, pretending to be a good sister, but now Lloyd couldn't help but wonder how much of what Ashley had said to him was ever genuine, and how much was just part of her act Manuel silently y came to the living room.

Joseph glanced at Manuel and asked, "Where's Ashley? I hope she's not at Selina's door making a fool out of herself

"I brought her back. No way I would let her stay there. If Ashley really did all of this, she must take responsibility," Manuel said.

"Take responsibility? What kind of responsibility could she possibly take? Because of her slander and deceit, we've spent all this time wrongly believing Selina was a thief. We've mistaken her for so long that it drove her to cut ties with the Harvey family. How can Ashley make up for that now? Even if we punish Ashley, Selina isn't coming back. She has her pride, With Trevon backing her and all her hidden identities, she doesn't need to rely on the Harvey family anymore. And even if she did come back, with all the guilt we owe her, she'd have every right to be full of herself." Joseph said.

If Selina did come back, everyone in the Harvey family would be burdened with guilt and bend over backward to make it up to her. Living like that would be exhausting. But, of course, that was assuming Selina even wanted to return.

Manuel couldn't help but ask, "Joseph, is there something off here? I just can't believe Ashley would do something so despicable and shameless while still managing to pretend she's innocent in front of us. We never noticed anything suspicious before."
