Dexie’s face fell instantly. Looking at Paloma, she said in an indifferent voice:“Paloma, what mischief are you up to now? Did you forget the lesson from before?”Dexie had already taught her a lesson after the previous incident, but Paloma still had no intention of repenting at all. Dexie didn’t know why Paloma suddenly became so bold, and it was truly puzzling.“Dexie, I don’t want to harm you. I just really wanted to see you today, so please don’t reject me.” Paloma smiled and looked at Dexie with feigned sincerity, then said with a serious expression on her face: “Now you are Luke’s wife, so having a good relationship with you will benefit me. My dear sister, how could I bother you?”Paloma’s words caught Dexie a bit off guard. After a moment of silence, she looked at Paloma and said, “How did you get in?”She didn’t believe what Paloma had said. How could she make a special trip if she wasn’t trying to cause trouble? She must have an agenda.“I only knew that this was the Huxley
As she entered the room, Paloma murmured, “Dexie, I’m just going to look at your room.”“Why are you so stingy?”The room was luxuriously decorated and fully equipped with the best facilities. Next to the bathroom and bedroom, there was a vast wardrobe filled with the most fashionable clothes, shoes, and bags, as well as limited edition luxury bags and jewelry. Her wardrobe alone was bigger than Paloma’s entire room combined. With so many limited edition luxury items, the clothes and jewelry inside were comparable to those in a luxury store. The store casually displayed rare limited edition products, rarely seen even in fashion magazines, one by one.Paloma once again felt overwhelmed by envy and resentment.When she first arrived at the Hansley family’s house, when she discovered she had such an exquisite room for the first time, she thought she had the best things in the world, and she believed that if she could live with those things, she would be the happiest girl in the world, bu
Paloma screamed louder and louder. If this continued, she could attract the attention of the guests. Dexie frowned and stepped forward to grab Paloma’s hand, saying, “Have you had enough? Get up quickly.”“Help-“As soon as Dexie touched Paloma, she screamed. She fought so desperately that she almost stopped Dexie.“Boom...”As Paloma frantically waved her arms, a potted plant fell from the balcony, making a crunching sound.Below the balcony, there was grass covered in snow because the building was so high, the pot still shattered into pieces.After the servant waiting below heard such a loud noise from upstairs, he hurriedly asked Dexie, “Madam? Are you okay?”Dexie frowned and didn’t know how to respond at that moment.When Paloma heard the servant below asking this, she quickly shouted, “Someone come help me! He’s going to kill me! He wants to push me down!”Dexie couldn’t take it anymore and coldly yelled at Paloma, “Shut up! Are you crazy? How could he kill you? Paloma, enough.
A bathroom and a hallway separate the study room from the balcony. The two balconies were unconnected, yet there was no balcony separating them. They were adjacent, and the distance between them was about ten meters. I didn’t know when Danny appeared or how much he had seen. My first concern was whether Danny was scared, and if that would traumatize him and worsen his autism. I didn’t even think about the fact that he could serve as a witness.Danny seemed terrified. He looked at Dexie with shock. When Dexie called him, he seemed to suddenly snap back to reality, but the next moment, he burst into tears, and his eyes were filled with fear. Dexie’s heart sank when she saw Danny was truly scared.“Danny, it’s okay. Mommy is here, so come out.” Dexie couldn’t help but feel her heart ache. She blamed herself for being too careless and scaring Danny so much.As she spoke, she hurried to the study room. Danny hid in the balcony’s corner. As he sat there, he looked at Dexie with fear and ref
When she spoke, she sounded extremely docile and fragile. She had many wounds on her body, as well as bloodstains on her face. She deliberately stuttered to appear as pitiful as possible, and it seemed like she was about to burst into tears.An elderly man close to Luke and Dexie said a bit irritably, “Mr. Huxley, this Miss Hansley is too kind. Miss Hansley, who chose...”He looked at Dexie with eyes full of contempt and mockery, as if she were a vicious woman.Dexie frowned. Before she could speak, Paloma, lying weakly on the ground, said, “No, don’t blame Dexie. I didn’t stay still. She gently pushed me. I made her angry. I shouldn’t have. I liked her husband. I shouldn’t have mentioned Oswin in front of her, Dexie, it was my fault. I was unaware that you still harbored feelings for her.”She acted extremely fragile. After saying this, her eyes rolled back in her head several times, as if she were about to faint.Dexie frowned and feared that if this continued, she would face public
Upon hearing Luke say that, Dexie’s heart sank. Even Luke believed Dexie had pushed Paloma.Because their relationship wasn’t positive, it wasn’t a matter of trust or distrust. Therefore, if there was an argument, it wasn’t impossible for Dexie to accidentally push Paloma.After Luke made this statement, he genuinely believed Dexie had pushed Paloma. He didn’t want to investigate further; he simply wanted to quickly resolve the matter.However, all the elders present were not willing to let the matter settle. Some hot-tempered elders were clamoring for a simple investigation. Luke’s face fell, and he was about to lose his temper. But a young man who somewhat resembled Luke emerged from the crowd.He approached Luke and said, “Luke, let’s investigate, or else people will misunderstand... and everyone will be dissatisfied.”Luke frowned, and Dexie stood up slowly. The young man nodded towards Dexie and smiled slightly.Luke said, “This is my cousin, Quentin Huxley.”Dexie nodded and pol
Dvlan burst into laughter immediately and said to Dexie seriously, “Why should I doubt you? I believe you wouldn’t hide this kind of thing from me, and there’s really no need to conceal it.”Dexie sighed in relief and said, “But if we investigate now, it will only make the situation worse. If I admit it publicly... it will minimize the negative impact of the matter. I’ve thought about it. I could start by apologizing to her.”“No way.”Before Dexie’s words could fall, Luke interrupted, saying, “You are my woman. How can you let a scheming bitch like Paloma harm you?”“So... are there surveillance cameras nearby?” Dexie asked.Luke shook his head and said, “There are no surveillance cameras in the owners’ residences or in private places. The only way is to let Paloma admit it.”“Let her admit it herself? Why would she admit it herself?” Dexie frowned and said, “She created this elaborate plan and isn’t even afraid to risk her life to frame you. Why would she contradict herself in publi
Without knowing how to respond, Paloma stammered as she said, “You...”Ava snorted coldly and said, “You have guts. You dare to incriminate a Huxley family member!” Everyone present was incredible.Abruptly, she rephrased her statement, asserting that she had fallen independently, and attempted to implicate Dexie in her fall.It was just that if she did this out of envy, then why did she suddenly change her words again?Dexie also felt very puzzled. Paloma took a significant risk, even putting her life in danger, but then abruptly changed her mind.None of this made sense. She couldn’t help but wonder what Luke had whispered in her ear.As soon as Ava’s words fell, Paloma hurriedly reached out and grabbed the hem of Dexie’s clothes. With tears in her eyes, she said, “Dexie, I was wrong. It was my fault. Please forgive me. I regret it. I won’t dare to do it again. I was envious of you. I should be cursed. I heard that today was an important day for the Huxley family, so I thought that
