The Price of Betrayal novel Chapter 10

In my last life, my dad wanted to transfer shares to compensate me.

Eloise used this same method to accuse me of trying to kill her in front of the guests.

The camera at the stairway was broken.

And I was the only one standing there at the time.

My dad dragged me downstairs, and the guests pointed fingers and scolded me.

There were entertainment reporters mixed in at the party, and the flashbulbs constantly went off in Eloise's face.

Eloise, who was usually sensitive to flashes, finally snapped back to reality and screamed as she ran back to her room.

For a moment, I saw my parents' faces darken.

I was taken to the hospital.

My left leg was broken, and I hit my head on the ground, making me look badly injured.

But it was all part of my plan.

"Mom, Eloise didn't do it on purpose. She must be scared too." I struggled to sit up, looking at Eloise.

"Eloise, did I scare you?"

I turned to my parents. "Mom, dad, let me talk to Eloise alone."

My parents looked at me with concern.

"Call us if you feel unwell. We'll be right outside."

I nodded tearfully, watching them leave.

Eloise sat on the sofa, her hands clenched, glaring at me with bloodshot eyes.

"Why did you set me up!"

I didn't answer, turning my head to the window.

"Do you remember this room? It was when the flowers were in full bloom."

"Now, look again." I shifted my gaze to Eloise.

"They've all withered."

A few wilted flowers peeked through the window.

I stopped beating around the bush and picked up my phone.
