“I don’t think this is the time to joke around.” Jun Liang said. He gave Lily a stern look. “I think this is enough. Miss Lily, you have caused enough damaged. I suggest you take your leave, now.”
“The thing is… I am not in the mood to joke around. Someone just schemed against my husband. If they released the news, my husband is ruin. He is innocent, true. But do you think the people will believe that?” She smiled. “Everyone will believe the lie that is orchestrated by the old man and your daughter.”
“People do not care about the truth, Mr. Liang. We, however, care about entertainment.” She added as she tapped on her phone. She then showed it to Tim. “That is the video of my husband leaving the room ten minutes before your sister arrived.”
“No — that is not possible!” Demi objected. “How is that possible? If he left, then who— “
“The next video was the one installed inside the room,” Lily added. And as expected, Demi immediately widened her eyes at Lily. She then looked at Lily’s phone and tried to snatch it from her brother’s hands.
Of course, this was futile. In response, her brother sent her a warning glare. Prompting her to stop moving.
“The man — though, we did not see his face, clearly has tattoos and is obviously shorter than Zhou Jingren.” Lily said. “That is not Zhou Jingren.”
“What?” Demi felt her chest drummed against her chest. She trembled. The thought of sleeping with another man never crossed her mind. How could she even think that it was possible? Old Man Lee assured her that everything is going their way. He told her that the plan was successful and they even have images of Zhou Jingren leaving the room around eleven in the evening! That was over two hours since Demi entered the room! How could… Demi’s thought halted when she looked at Lily’s enchanting smile.
“It’s you!” Once again, Demi was not able to stop the anger inside her. “You did this! You asked someone to r*pe me! It’s you!”
“Please… ” Lily snorted. “Did I asked you to go to the room? Alone?”
“You tricked me! You tricked us! You — You are the real evil! How dare you!” She stood from her seat and picked up the tea to throw it towards Lily.
“You can try,” a deep, cold voice interrupted her. She turned towards the door and could not stop the fear from showing in her eyes. “Try to hurt my wife… I dare you.” Zhou Jingren said, his gaze swept through her.
“Jingren… I…”
Zhou Jingren only snorted. He walked towards Lily and stood behind her. “We already warned you and Isaac. And yet… you still tried to ask people about me. Creating rumors among my people.”
“Mr. Zhou…” Both Jun Liang and Tim whispered at the same time. The father and son eyed each other. To be honest, both of them are already at lost in the current situation. They never would have expected that Lily would pull such schemes just to teach Demi a lesson.
“Jingren… can you believe this woman?” Before the father and son could say anything, Demi already approached Zhou Jingren. “How could you allow her to create these fake videos and photos? You were the one who slept with me. How could you run away from your responsibility?” Demi’s eyes were wide as she walked towards him. “Did you forget? You enjoyed it. You liked it a lot. You called me by my name. You—” her eyes turned gentle. “You touched me.”
“Jingren… why don’t you say something? Both of us enjoyed it! How could you let that woman create such nonsense just to — to ruin us like this?” Her crazed eyes stared at him as her tears mixed with her mascara trickled down her face.
“I suggest you take her to a mental institution,” Lily said as she shifted her gaze at Jun and Tim. “I think this is a high time that you acknowledge your own fault and take her to someone that could help her.” She added.
Jun opened his mouth to say something. But no words came out of his mouth.
“As you can see… she is vulnerable. Any man that would treat her like a daughter could easily manipulate her. She wanted attention… you should give that to her.” Lily sigh.
“I am not crazy! I knew it was you! I am not crazy!” She looked at her father then into her brother as rage nearly consumed her. “Why are you choosing this woman over me? Why would you believe her words over my words?” She asked. “I am a Liang! We have the same blood running in our veins. Why would you abandoned me like this?��
“Tim… take her.” Jun Liang let out a sigh. He stared at his daughter, his eyes were clouded with emotions that he had never felt for a long time now.
“No! Stay away from me! I am not coming with anyone of you!” She ran towards the table and held one of the cups from the tea set. “Don’t you dare come near me! I am not crazy! I swear I’m not crazy!”
“I already called someone to help you out.” Lily rose from her seat and fixed her dress. “I think it’s best that I leave you to yourselves.” She uttered and gave Demi a gaze full of sympathy. “I promise not to release the videos as long as you stay away from me and my husband.” She shifted her gaze towards the father and son. “Make her stay away from me… or… I will ruin everyone that she loves. And that includes you two.”
“How could you be this ruthless?” Tim asked. “You are a woman… how could you allow that to happen to another woman? Aren’t you just a hypocrite?”
“I am a hypocrite.” She nodded. “The only thing unique about me is I am not afraid to accept that.” Lily walked past Tim before she halted her steps and looked at the man’s side profile. “If someone would try to ruin the person that you love… would you just stand and watch? Or become a hypocrite and fight?”
Seeing Tim stared at her, Lily nodded. “There’s your answer.” She smiled before walking about of the room with Zhou Jingren, in tow.
