Counterback of the Despised Luna by Diana West

Chapter 323 Playing Along "We dare!" the two werewolf waiters said in unison.

+8 Pearls To prove their innocence, they brought over the drinks that Rosaline and Jasper had just consumed and drank them in front of everyone.

I still couldn't figure out why Rosaline remained so confident, but after the waiters finished the drinks, they looked fine, without any signs of anything unusual.

A smirk tugged at my lips. "Everyone saw that-the drinks are perfectly safe. Rosaline, what excuse do you have now? Just admit it already and stop dragging innocent people into this!" I paused for a moment before softening my tone and saying to the two werewolf waiters, "This has nothing to do with you anymore. Go back to work. I'll talk to your boss and make sure they know you had no part in this. You won't lose your jobs over it." The reporters captured the whole scene, from the way I reassured them to the generosity in my voice.

Just like that, I solidified my image as a considerate and understanding person.

"Thank you, Ms. White." The two waiters let out a sigh of relief and turned to leave.

"Rosaline, the evidence is clear now. No one drugged you-you were just shamelessly seducing Jasper in the lounge!" Jasper, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke in a deep, firm voice, stepping in front of Rosaline protectively, "Ms. White, I suggest you stop making things up. It didn't happen the way you're claiming. I was simply discussing the plot of our next project with Rosaline-nothing more." I was taken aback. "Jasper, you...

Watching the man I had loved for so long openly protect Rosaline without hesitation made my heart sink. Before I could finish my sentence, a startled gasp cfrom the entrance-the two waiters who were supposed to have left. "M-Mr. Holbrook ...

Mr. Holbrook? Caden?! A thought flashed through my mind as I turned and saw Caden's tall, imposing figure.

He walked with steady steps, his presence as commanding as a king's.

His expression was cold, exuding a sharp, unyielding aura that made everyone instinctively shudder and step aside, clearing a path for him without a word.

Stopping in front of Rosaline, he asked calmly, "What's going on?" Yet the moment his gaze fell on her, the piercing coldness in his eyes softened unconsciously.

Before Rosaline could even speak, I immediately jumped in, exaggerating the story. "Mr. Holbrook, don't let this Omega fool you! She was just here seducing Jasper-she's cheating!" His overwhelming presence sent a shiver down my spine, and before I knew it, I had instinctively stepped back. Taking a deep breath, I forced myself to stand my ground. "Mr. Holbrook, I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, ask them. The reporters saw everything." "Did you?" Caden turned to Rosaline, his expression calm and indifferent.

"No," Rosaline replied with arms crossed, looking atwith a hint of amusement in her gaze.

"Hmm. I believe you." The moment Caden said that, I could hardly believe my ears.

Everyone saw Rosaline and Jasper's disheveled appearance in the room, but Caden trusted them after asking such a simple question.

He trusted this Omega-unconditionally! Seeing how confident Rosaline looked, a sudden sense of unease washed over me.

Why were they so calm, so in sync? Had they planned this all along? No way! I had made sure the werewolf waiter took Rosaline's phone. There was no way she could have contacted Caden! Rosaline's POV: I instantly caught the panic flickering in Lilian's eyes.

It was true that the werewolf waiter had taken my phone, but I had already anticipated all of this.

Playing along was just a trap-to lure the snake out of its hole! Back when I was about to step out of Caden's car, I happened to notice Wendy's car parked not far away.

I was well aware of her hostility toward me.

I had no intention of harming anyone, but that didn't mean I wouldn't stay vigilant.

So I told Caden that if he couldn't reachwithin half an hour after 'i within e went inside, he should cfind me.

And just as I predicted, everything played out exactly as expected.

Lilian was about to speak when the restaurant manager who had entered with Caden stepped forward and cleared his throat. "Ms. White, I heard you wanted to check the surveillance footage to prove your innocence. That won't be a problem. I've already retrieved it." He took out a USB drive and plugged it into the lounge's TV.

The big screen TV started playing the footage.

The video focused on the two waiters who had served drinks to Jasper and me.

They took the wine and drink bottles to the kitchen, emptied them, rinsed nd then refilled them multiple times, and them with fresh wine and beverages before bringing them to the lounge. As the video played, whispers spread through the crowd.

"So the drinks were actually tampered with!" "No wonder they drank them earlier without any issue, they had already swapped them out." "Looks like we really misjudged Ms. Sinclair and Jasper." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
