Kristine spun around, her gaze falling on Madisyn, who stood at the doorway with Andrew.


    They appeared calm and united.


    For Kristine, it was as though she was seeing a ghost.novelbin


    Madisyn was the one meant to be disgraced by her scheme!


    Yet there she stood,posed alongside Andrew.


    In a moment, rity hit Kristine.


    “I see now.


    It was your doing, Madisyn! You set me up!”


    Josie quickly grasped the situation, ring at Madisyn.


    “Madisyn, Kristine is your sister! How could you be so heartless? You’re a monster!”


    The guests looked at each other, their faces reflecting a blend of astonishment and disapproval.


    Just then, ine and Glenn arrived.


    They had been briefed on the situation, but witnessing it firsthand ignited ine’s fury.


    The Johns family had always been united.


    How had ite to this?


    When Kristine saw them, she clung to the sight of her parents as if they were her salvation.


    “Dad, Mom, Madisyn’s trying to destroy me!”


    Josie quickly added, “Kristine went upstairs with Madisyn when she was visibly tired.


    But who could have imagined Madisyn would set her sister up with a vagrant! This is utterly despicable!”


    Kristine broke down, tears pouring down her cheeks.


    She appeared to bepletely shattered.


    Madisyn, however, just smirked, her voice nonchnt but filled with spite.


    “You im I set you up? That’s amusing.


    You didn’t seem to think so earlier.


    You imed you were in love with that man.


    Everyone heard it, right?”


    The guests shuffled awkwardly.


    They had indeed heard it.


    Kristine’s fury escted, nearly suffocating her.


    “I… I was out of it! I thought I was with someone I loved, but I was mistaken! Madisyn, you drugged me! You made me hallucinate!”


    Kristine eximed.


    Josie supported her im, saying, “Kristine would never choose an old man like that! Madisyn, your actions are cruel! You’re trying to ruin Kristine!”


    Kristine’s cries resonated in the room, eliciting sympathy from some guests.


    Josie’s argument seemed usible.


    The mismatch between Kristine and the man was clear.


    It was unthinkable for them to be a couple.


    Could this truly be Madisyn’s scheme? If so, she was a terrible person.


    The crowd’s gaze shifted, suspicion thick in the air.
