Chapter 87 A Re–Enactment The voices in the recording Vere clear and had no background noise, recounting the scene inside the bar.
Melanie’s laughter echoed through the office, and her every word caught everyone’s attention.
Meanwhile, I focused on Matthew’s expression.
Melanie’s words became increasingly unbearable as the recording continued.
Although I knew the contents of the recording, hearing it again sent shivers down my spine.
I was heartbroken as tears streamed down my face.
“You set me up, Chloe! I’m going to kill you!” Melanie was shocked but quickly retaliated.
However, Ivanna had prepared for her reaction.
She kicked Melanie and sent her flying to the couch.
Melanie’s eyes were bloodshot as she grabbed an ashtray from the table and threw it at me.
I turned away, and the crystal ashtray crashed onto the floor, shattering into pieces.
Everyone else in the room froze, and gasped.
Matthew stared at me and gulped.
He avoided my gaze, not daring to look back at me.
Suddenly, he stepped forward and reached for my phone on the table.
However, I snatched it away and stepped back while Ivanna stood before me.
I’m grateful to Melanie for sending me photos of your affair.” I found the photos on my phone and showed them to Henry and Grace.
“Look, here’s your son and daughter.
Matthew, have a look, too.
Melanie asked me if they looked good.
What do you think?” Matthew paled as he slumped on the couch, burying his head in his hands.
Meanwhile, Johnson was speechless as he stared at everyone in disbelief.
Suddenly, Melanie freed herself from Johnson and shouted at me, “What about you and that Atlas guy?! Can you say you two didn’t do anything?!”
