Chapter 272
When Cynthia saw the photos, her eyes turned cold at once. She didn’t expect Shirley to have captured everything that day. Clearly, Shirley came prepared.
Moreover, she looked obviously unusual being held like that, with flushed cheeks. Later, when Cynthia thought about that night, she couldn’t recall anything.
But she was good at drinking. There was only one possibility: that night, she had been drugged. Cynthia had suspected that before, but she couldn’t find any evidence since then.
Seeing herself in the video, with those unfocused eyes, rosy lips and that expression of discomfort and desire, Cynthia knew that she had been drugged. And about who did it and who wanted to harm her, the answer was quite obvious.
Seeing that everyone around started gossiping about Cynthia, Shirley was really smug. She said, “Cynthia, you never thought I’d still have this trump card, did you?”
Three years ago, Filip and Lilian went abroad. Cynthia went to the Dark Horse Club to drown her sorrows. Shirley took this chance and drugged Cynthia’s drink.
She also hired a paparazzo to follow Cynthia around all night, capturing many photos of her fling with a male model. Shirley had been keeping these photos on her phone. At first, she thought Cynthia was really Filip’s wife. She planned to keep these and wait for the perfect moment to humiliate Cynthia so that the Yates family would despise and abandon her. Unexpectedly, Filip stayed abroad for three years, and Shirley never found the right opportunity Plus, Cynthia was so formidable that she didn’t dare bring it up on casual occasions.
She knew that Cynthia would definitely get back on her later, so she had to strike decisively. After Cynthia married Jonathan, Shirley thought of a perfect chance.
She planned to release these photos to the media when Cynthia and Jonathan had their wedding in the future. She was determined to have Cynthia kicked out by the Bennett family on what was supposed to be her happiest day.
But today, she acted impulsively and directly made these photos public. The current event was no less significant than Cynthia’s future wedding, though.
The elites of Roncrity were all present, including the Xenos family. It was Cynthia’s time to shine, and now was the perfect moment for Shirley to do that
Cynthia walked up to Shirley step by step coldly with the phone in her hand. Her gaze was so sharp and cold.
“Shirley, where did you get these photos?” Shirley was scared by Cynthia’s stance and stepped back. She knew Cynthia’s temperament very well.
But in front of everyone, Shirley wasn’t afraid. She stepped back while saying, “Cynthia, that’s not important. They’re real, and your affair with the male model three years ago was real as well. You’re just an unfaithful slut
Cynthia grabbed Shirley’s hand and said, “Shirley, you druggede, didn’t you?”
Of course, Shirley wouldn’t admit it. “Drug you? Stop slanderingme, Cynthia. You were the one messing around. How dare you wanna shift the blame on me?”
Cynthia squeezed Shirley’s wrist hard. Shirley cried out in pain, Cynthia, how dare you bully me in front of everyone?!” Shirley shouted like a rascal, “Everyone, look! This is the Cynthia you know, losing her temper just like that
Cynthia, though without proof, was sure that Shirley had drugged her that day. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gotten so

Cynthia hated the act of drugging more than anything. Naturally, Shirley wouldn’t admit it. Cynthia squeezed harder, and then with a crack, Shirley’s wrist was dislocated.
Shirley screamed in pain while Cynthia, surrounded by a cold aura, remained calm and composed.
Cynthia grabbed Shirley’s other hand and said, “Shirley, this is your last chance. Tell me the truth, or I’ll crush every bone in your body, and you’ll spend the rest of your life disabled.”
Shirley’s face turned pale with fear. She knew Cynthia could definitely do that. When Cynthia lost it, she went to a whole
She loved silently breaking people’s bones. Shirley had provoked her once and ended up with her bones dislocated. The pain was unbearable, worse than dying.
After that, Shirley went to the hospital for treatment. She wanted to sue Cynthia and get a medical report as evidence.
But the doctor said the injuries weren’t even considered minor, so there was no way to get a report. Yet, the pain was very real as if a truck had run over her again and again.
That time, Shirley had to swallow her grievances. Just thinking about Cynthia’s methods made her tremble all over. Shirley looked pleadingly at Justin and Selena and said, “Dad. Mom, are you just going to watch Cynthia bully nue like this?
“Come and help me!”
She exclaimed, “Ah!” A sharp pain hit her wrist again. She felt like the bones in her arms had all shattered.
It hurt so much that sweat dripped down her forehead, yet no matter how much she pleaded, no one stepped up to stop Cynthia.
Selena even turned around. She felt complicated since she seemed to have figured out what happened.
She thought. Has Shirley really done something as despicable as drugging Cynthia? If it’s true, I can’t stand by Shirley this

Justin wasn’t thinking about the same thing. The only thing he was thinking was that tonight’s party to hook Xenos family had been ruined again. He didn’t mind whether it was Shirley or Cynthia who caused the trouble.
Now it seemed that everything was just an empty dream. His heart throbbed.
His emotions were like a rollercoaster all night, almost unbearable. The discomfort left him speechless, let alone able to discern right from wrong.

The Xenos family had been watching the whole thing. Although they didn’t know what was happening, yet for some reaton, they had unconditional trust in Cynthia and believed she could handle the situation on her own, so they didn’t intervene
Shirley was in so much pain that she started to feel dizzy. There were so many people there, but no one stepped forward to help her. She thought, Cynthia is to blame. She should’ve been the one to lose her reputation!
The pain made her head dizzy, her ears ring, and her vision blur. She felt that the whole world was shaking and she couldn’t see anything clearly.
The only thing she could see was Cynthia, For a moment, she forgot there were so many people present.
Shirley roared frantically, “So what if you were drugged? You’ve slept with a male model, and it can’t be denied, Cynthia. You’re dirty. If Jonathan finds out, do you think he’ll still tolerate you? You’re just an immoral slut!

“Just wait and see. Once Jonathan finds out, he’ll definitely dump you. He won’t put up with his woman sleeping with a filthy prostitute!”
“Shirley, who are you calling a prostitute?!” A sharp, cold voice suddenly came from the doorway.
