Chapter 22
Connor turned pale as a sheet, his eyes wide as dinner plates riveled on Debby, one of the bridesmaids.
That chick, she must be up to no good! Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Belinda’s joyous smile slowly hardened into a grimace. She gaped in disbelief at her groom–to–be, “Connor, what’s the deal between you. and that woman? What were you two doing in the storage room?”
Connor gently laid a hand on Belinda’s shoulder, “Belinda, let me explain, it’s not what you think! That bridesmaid said she was feeling sick and asked me to help her get to the storage room. But once we were in, she started undressing and tried to seduce me! I was freaked out and bolted right out of there, I swear I didn’t do anything!”
Belinda was far from convinced by Connor’s explanation. She pushed him away and headed towards the four bridesmaids on the stage, “Which one of you is the woman in the video? Step forward now!”
From the back, Debby sneakily shoved a yawning Ellinor forward. Caught off guard, Ellinor stumbled and ended up standing in front of Belinda!
Belinda was taken aback, furrowing her brow, “You?”
In the audience, Jonah was enjoying the drama unfold, “Theo, your wife is trying to seduce the groom at someone else’s wedding? And that groom is your niece’s fiancé! Oh boy…”
Theo remained quiet, watching silently.
Ellinor, always a bit slow when yawning, took a moment to collect herself, then shook her head, “Just look at the dress the woman in the video is wearing. It’s clear who it is. My dress doesn’t have a ruffled neckline.”
Debby glanced down and realized, darn it! Among the four bridesmaids, only her dress had that design!
She quickly blamed Ellinor, “It was her! She seduced the groom! She was originally wearing this dress, but after she went to the bathroom, she suggested we swap dresses. I didn’t think much of it and agreed. Turns out she seduced the groom and switched dresses to frame me!”
Belinda and Ellinor exchanged glances.
“Ellinor, you were indeed wearing that bridesmaid dress at first, why did you switch?” Belinda asked.
Hearing Belinda question Ellinor, Debby chimed in, “Yeah, Ellinor, if you weren’t seducing the groom, why did you switch dresses with
me?”
Ellinor looked at Debby who accused her, “I remember you being the one who insisted on switching, not me.”
Debby retorted, “Do you have any proof? If not, stop spreading rumors!”
Ellinor raised an eyebrow, “Isn’t the proof already on the big screen?”
Debby glanced at the screen, where the surveillance footage was still looping. The footage wasn’t clear and didn’t capture the woman’s face. This was hardly concrete proof!
Debby sneered dismissively, “The woman in the video is you, isn’t it? You said this is proof, so you’re admitting it’s you!”
Ignoring Debby, Ellinor calmly turned to the control panel, “Can someone please turn the volume up to the max? We’ll clear up who the woman in the video is.”
The volume on the big screen maxed out, and the voices from the surveillance video became clearer. Everyone heard the quarrel between Connor and Debby, their conversation revealing their illicit relationship, making it clear they were lovers!
“It was you!” Belinda slapped Debby in a fit of rage!
Debby covered her face, her complexion pallid and lips trembling.
How could the surveillance have sound? And so clear at that!
When she snuck to retrieve the surveillance footage, it was definitely without sound. Yes, the surveillance footage that suddenly popped up on the big screen was her doing!
