"Huanhuan, what nonsense are you talking about? When did I give you cookies?" Ye Ru denied it outright.
Before bringing Herbert Smith into the dressing room, she had already cleaned up the remaining cookies and crumbs and taken them with her. Therefore, she wasn't worried at all about Ye Huanhuan catching her in the slightest.
"Ye Ru, you're still trying to deny it! There are crumbs of cookies I vomited in the trash can. Should we get them taken for forensic testing to see if they contain any date rape drugs? If you hadn't meticulously planned all of this, how could this foreigner have gotten into the dressing room?" Ye Huanhuan was furious.
"Huanhuan, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I didn't give you any cookies, and I didn't bring Mr. Herbert to the dressing room. Why do you have to put all this on me? Just because I'm not Mom and Dad's biological child, do you think I'm easy to bully?"
Ye Ru burst into tears, and Ye Ting's forehead veins bulged as he heard her words. He wished he could kill Ye Huanhuan to vent his anger.
He immediately yelled at Ye Huanhuan, "How did Mr. Herbott get into the dressing room? Shouldn't you ask yourself that first? You were the one who seduced Mr. Herbott. When Mr. Herbott first came to the hotel, I greeted him, and then he was called away. I also heard with my own ears that the person who called Mr. Herbott away said that you wanted to talk to Mr. Herbott alone."
Upon hearing Ye Ting's words, Ye Huanhuan suddenly realized that Ye Ting and Ye Ru had likely been in cahoots for a long time.
If that's the case, then the video that circulated widely online before was very likely created by Ye Ru.
After all, Ye Ru was present on the day she had the argument with Song Lin and Xu Lu.
That video was most likely taken secretly by Ye Ru, who then asked Ye Ting to find Song Lin and Xu Lu so that the two of them could use the video to frame her.
After figuring all this out, Ye Huanhuan looked at Ye Ru again and felt that this woman was really scheming and calculating.
If Ye Ru hadn't been so impatient, she could have taken advantage of her trust in her and proceeded gradually.
Given time, it's only a matter of time before someone sets a trap and plunges themselves into an abyss of no return.
Thinking of this, Ye Huanhuan broke out in a cold sweat.
She retorted, "Ye Ting, since you say I'll have someone call this foreign devil over for a proper talk, where is the person who relayed my message? Where is he? If you're so capable, bring a witness over! Besides, this foreign devil is speaking English, which I can't even understand. What's there for me to talk to him about? Are we going to fluff cotton together?"
Hearing Ye Huanhuan's words, Tang Yi couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Realizing the situation was too serious, he immediately suppressed his smile and continued to look on with an expression of anticipation.
Ye Ting: "There are so many servants in the banquet hall, how am I supposed to remember who they are? Also, you said you don't speak English, but does seducing someone have anything to do with whether you speak English or not?"
Of all those present, only Ye Huanhuan herself and Gao Yalan knew that she was pregnant, so Gao Yalan absolutely did not believe that Ye Huanhuan would do something like seducing Herbert Smith.
She recalled the image of Ye Huanhuan holding a sharp object to her throat before she entered the room, and immediately questioned Herbert Smith:
“Mr. Herbert, you say my daughter seduced you, but when we came in, why did she hold a sharp object to her throat and act as if she would rather die than submit? Is this what you call seduction?”
Herbert Smith remained unfazed, lying without batting an eye.
“Madam Ye, it’s because I explained to Miss Huanhuan that I only have Miss Xiaoru in my heart and asked her to respect herself. She couldn’t accept this fact, so she threatened to kill herself.”
"How ridiculous! You threaten to kill yourself if you can't have what you want. Ye Huanhuan, is the blood of the Ye family really flowing in your veins? Maybe the paternity test was wrong, or maybe you picked up some bastard from somewhere?" Ye Ting's tone remained sarcastic.
"Abner!" Gao Yalan was furious, her arms trembling as she held Ye Huanhuan. "Shut up! How could you say that about your sister?"
Ye Ting: "What did I say? Wasn't what I said the truth?"
"You bastard!" Ye Haiming yelled at Ye Ting, "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"
Ye Ting turned his head to the other side, unconvinced, and snorted coldly before falling silent.
Ye Huanhuan already understood that this plan was definitely another conspiracy between Ye Ting and Ye Ru, one framing the other, with the aim of preventing her from attending the banquet.
Unfortunately, she couldn't produce any strong evidence to prove she was a victim, and could only pin her hopes on Ye Haiming and Gao Yalan.
"Mom and Dad, believe me, I'm telling the truth! It's obvious that this foreign devil is trying to take advantage of me, I didn't seduce him at all!" Ye Huanhuan tried her best to explain.
"Huanhuan." Gao Yalan looked at Ye Huanhuan with a firm gaze: "Mom believes in you!"
Ye Ru looked heartbroken: "Mom, you believe Huanhuan, but you don't believe me? I didn't give her the so-called cookies, and I don't know why Huanhuan would try to frame me. If Huanhuan is innocent, why is Mr. Herbert here for no reason? Just yesterday, Mr. Herbert was angry with Huanhuan in front of us..."
Gao Yalan looked troubled; Ye Ru's words were undoubtedly forcing her to make a choice.
Should we choose to believe Ye Huanhuan or Ye Ru?
This caused her to fall silent for a moment.
Herbert Smith then spoke in broken Chinese: “Miss Xiaoru is right. Although I like beautiful women, I don’t like girls as rude and ill-mannered as Miss Huanhuan. In Y country, if I wanted, there would be plenty of women willing to be with me. Why would I force Miss Huanhuan?”
