Ye Ru glanced at Ye Huanhuan sitting on the sofa, her eyes filled with resentment, "I really don't understand..."
"Don't understand? Don't think I don't know you plotted against me!" Ye Huanhuan interrupted coldly.
"I framed you?"
Ye Ru vehemently denied it: "Huanhuan, everything needs evidence! I don't know what you said to Dad that made him think I framed you! But I am also a daughter of the Ye family. My parents raised me with great difficulty. How can you accuse me of this unfounded crime based on just a few words from you? I don't accept this!"
"You still dare to be stubborn? Fine, let me ask you, wasn't that foreigner the one you took to the dressing room? If you hadn't given me that cookie, how could I have fainted? And my adoptive parents, weren't they sent to the hotel by you? If they weren't acting on your orders, how could they have slandered me in public?" Huanhuan retorted angrily.
"You say I'm framing you, but I'm a victim too!"
Ye Ru burst into tears, her delicate face now filled with endless sorrow and injustice.
She sobbed softly as she spoke, her voice trembling:
"That cookie was given to me by Mr. Herbert. He demanded that I personally hand it to you. He threatened that if I didn't comply, he would abandon the cooperation with the Ye family. I could see that Dad valued this cooperation very much, so I didn't have the courage to disobey him at all."
Besides, aren't you alright now? Your father even terminated the cooperation for your sake. If I had known it would end like this, I should have exposed Mr. Herbert's true colors sooner, so I wouldn't have to live in constant fear, afraid of displeasing Mr. Herbert and causing the cooperation between the two families to fail, making all of your efforts futile!
After hearing Ye Ru's words, Ye Haiming frowned, a hint of emotion flashing in his eyes. He even felt that Ye Ru's words seemed flawless and everything seemed very reasonable.
Seeing that Ye Haiming's attitude had changed slightly, Ye Ru quickly seized the opportunity and pressed her advantage:
“Dad, everything I said is true! You should know very well what kind of person Mr. Herbert is, right? He did similar things all the time when he was in Y country. Huanhuan is so beautiful that even someone like Tang Shao fell at her feet. How could a lustful guy like Herbert remain unmoved in the face of a beauty like Huanhuan?”
Ye Huanhuan stared coldly at Ye Ru, knowing full well that the other party was distorting the truth. However, she had no substantial evidence, and it was impossible for her to call Herbert Smith over for a face-to-face confrontation.
She hesitated for a moment before speaking, "What about my adoptive parents slandering me at the hotel? You must have instigated that, right? Young Master Tang is already investigating. Once he has the evidence, Ye Ru, you won't be able to escape!"
Ye Ru remained calm. Although she had Xia Pengpeng tied up, she did not lay a hand on him. She only wanted to use Xia Pengpeng to make Xia Jianguo and his wife obedient.
She never showed her face from beginning to end. As soon as the matter was exposed, she immediately had Xia Pengpeng sent back. Therefore, it's almost impossible to trace this back to her, unless...
She took a deep breath and turned to question Ye Huanhuan:
"Huanhuan, can you really believe what your adoptive parents say? People like them have no bottom line. Since they dare to lie in front of everyone, how can you be sure that what they tell you is the truth?"
