“Only initials name, maybe it's not me.” Esme flicked her shoulders and turned to the other side.
“Enough. You can admit it in front of me. Your reaction just stated that you were the one who designed the dress.”
Esme takes a sip of fruit juice, sweet yet slightly sour with a thick refreshing aroma. Esme frowned and asked him, “What is this?”
“Jus passion fruit.”
Esme grunted him once more. “Truly fragrant.” He sipped again. This time, it felt like it had fused on his tongue.
“Clara sedated.” Suddenly Seth said and watched him.
Because the topic turned too fast, Esme's brain could not catch up. His head lifted as he spoke, “I know. That looks obvious.”
“Are you not curious who drugged him?”
Esme looked relaxed in front of Seth. “I'm not interested in Clara.” affairs
“That's me.” Seth's soft eyes sharpened. “I drugged him.”
The confession surprised Esme. “Why did you give him medicine?”
It's his sister's birthday party, Shopia. His actions could destroy this luxurious party.
“Because he wants to hurt you.”
Esme's hand gripped the rail tightly. A burning hatred was burning in his heart.
Today, if it wasn't for Seth replacing the cup of tea that was supposed to be for him, then he would be the one to embarrass himself in public, wouldn't he?
The original owner of the body was taken to the Andreas Estate when he was five years old. From then on, he never felt happy, not even a day. His sisters, Layla Andreas and Clara Andreas, treated him like a dog, oppressing him like their entertainment.
Lady Andreas is an even worse stepmother. A cruel woman who kept hitting him. Even at the time, Roy never treated her as a princess at all.
Esme pondered deeply after Seth left her side. The owner of this body did nothing wrong to this family, but they tried to oppress him every step of the way. Although the original body owner might be arrogant and selfish, it never crossed his mind to use these kinds of methods on his Sisters.
Drugged her and arranged for a man in the room for her? Such a bad and despicable method would probably work out in the Andreas Estate and now they are using the same plan again at Shopia's birthday party.
“Esme!” Layla's loud voice sounded behind her. However, Esme revealed a smile after hearing this voice despite the coldness of her eyes.
Amazingly, he did not need to go looking for them, but one of them appeared before him. Esme turned around, the sea breeze blowing her hair.
“That's you!” Layla glared at him. “You've drugged Clara!”
“Log.” Esme said with a dismissive tone.
“What did you say?”
“I said, you're a slow one.” Esme glanced from the tail of her eyes.
At that place, Layla did not have the answers she was prepared to silence Esme.
“Why should I sedate Clara for no reason? Who is he to me? Cheap whore who wants to snatch my husband?”
Layla looked shocked at Esme's fluent words. When did he learn how to talk like that?
“He's not one of those. Do you think I'm free to put drugs in and give them to anyone? Jason treated me like a treasure today. Do I need to use this low method to damage my character?”
He vaguely felt Esme scolding him.
At first she wanted to use Shopia's party to show her good side by sending the dress, but the original designer of the dress appeared and turned it all around.
He wanted Clara to use the medicine to humiliate Esme and show him who the despicable woman was. But he did not expect that the person who ended up humiliating himself was Clara.
Everything he had planned to boomerang, causing Layla's anger to nearly explode on the roof. Now, he felt really humiliated.
“Esme, I'll find evidence proving that you were the one who drugged Clara!” Layla swore, glaring sharply at Esme.
“Then, before you find any evidence to support you, don't come in front of me, okay?” Esme scoffed with disdain. He moved closer to Layla, making Layla stiff with surprise.
A faint smile hung on the corner of Esme's lips. Her voice was clearly without an emphasis as she said, "Layla, how do you feel knowing that even your little sister likes Jason Hall too?”
Esme subtly looked up and down scanned Layla's body. “Compared to Clara, in terms of your face and body, you are lacking ...”
“Esme Andreas, do not exceed your limit!” Layla was furious, unable to accept the slightest hint of reproach for her appearance.
Because it was still in public, Layla could not move too far. If they weren't in public right now, he would have already raised a hand, slapping Esme hard.
……
Clara's despicable videos at the party spread like wildfire on the internet. Nearly two hours after the video was uploaded, the number of views exceeded one billion.
The comment section below the video exploded with cold sarcasm and horrendous innuendo. Every harsh word was like a knife piercing through Clara's heart.
The medicine was finally cleared from his body after emergency treatment. Not only that, doctors and nurses also watched the video at the party.
Roy Andreas and his wife, Anita Andreas, arrived at the hospital as soon as they got word of Clara. They have also watched the video before.
Clara leaned against the back of the gurney, watching her own scandalous video on her phone. He wanted to die from this shame.
“You really brought ‘glory’ to this old face!” Roy gasped as he paced around in the VIP room, glaring at Clara.
Although Clara is not as talented as Layla, she has better performances, which is why Roy has always spoiled her. He never expected Clara to do something like this.
When the video was released on the internet, shares of the family company plummeted sharply. Top-level management tried to save the situation, but even until the market closed today, there was no improvement. Judging from the situation, this will continue to decline when the market opens tomorrow.
Roy is on the edge of madness today.
Anita was also very angry about this matter. She gave birth to two beautiful daughters who carried her great praises wherever she went, and these two children were always a pride. Today, a short video burned all of his pride to ashes.
Even the issue of Layla giving names on other people's credits made headlines. With all this, Anita felt like beating up Clara.
But of course it's just a thought. After all, they were precious children to him.
“Why are you so stupid to touch those drugs?” Anita used a slightly irritated tone at Clara, showing her dissatisfaction. “You have humiliated the good name of the Andreas family!"
Clara felt guilty. The video was on the internet, how did he have to go out in public after this?
She raised her head, huge teardrops falling down her cheeks as she looked at Anita. “Mother, this is Esme! Ja lang that drugged me!”
