Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After novel Chapter 497

Chapter 497 You’re Not Entirely Wrong

Carol strode in confidently, followed closely by Alexa, who wore a sly grin.

Two burly bodyguards flanked the entrance, their imposing presence making it clear that excre was not an

option.

Not that Linsey intended to run.

Even if the guards weren’t there, she wouldn’t get far in an evening gown and heels,

Rather than wasting her energy on a futile attempt, she decided to stay calm and buy herself time.

That realization steadied her nerves,

Her gaze flickered to Alexa before settling on Carol. In a composed tone, she said, “This was orchestrated from the beginning, wasn’t it? You set me up at the party.”

Carol chuckled lightly, dragging out her response. “You’re not entirely wrong”

She didn’t elaborate.

The original plan had been simple–teach Linsey a lesson. Theft hadn’t been part of the equation.

But since Alexa had already set the stage, Carol figured there was no harm in playing along–as long as the

outcome suited her.

Linsey thought for a moment before speaking again. “Your maid had nothing concrete against me at first. She was just trying to drag me away under the chaos. If I had panicked, she might have succeeded. But I didn’t. Even when some guests wavered, I stood my ground.”

Alexa’s smirk faltered for a split second.

She hadn’t expected Linsey to piece things together so quickly.

Carol’s expression flickered with irritation before she masked it with a smirk. “Too bad you figured it out too

late.”

Linsey remained unfazed. A faint smile touched her lips.

“When the accusation wasn’t enough, you acted fast. You arranged a fake surveillance video and seized the perfect moment to unveil it.” Linsey’s tone was almost detached, as if she were analyzing someone else’s predicament. “Once that footage played, everything I’d said before lost its weight. The contrast made it easier for people to believe you, and no one cared about my side anymore. To them, I was just a liar wasting their

time.”

Carol let out an exasperated scoff. “And? What’s your point? You expect me to clap for you?”

With exaggerated slowness, she raised her hands and gave a mocking round of applause.

“Wow! Linsey, you’re a genius. You got it all right. I’m truly impressed.” Leaning in slightly, her voice dripped with amusement. “Maybe you should ditch fashion design and become a detective instead.”

Before Linsey could respond, Carol straightened, crossing her arms as she strolled back and forth. “But honestly? I didn’t plan things that far ahead. I do what I want, and no one stops me. You were just unlucky. If you hadn’t crossed my path, none of this would have happened.”

Linsey studied her intently before asking, “Carol, I really want to know–what exactly did I do to offend you? Why are you so determined to make my life miserable?”
