At first, Mrs. Ritter was able to maintain her composure. But upon hearing this, she suddenly turned to Allie and said, "What do you mean? I've been worried sick about you being in jail and even sent Ashlyn to contact the Spencer family to help get you out. I did everything I could to save you, and now you're saying this?"
"Keep pretending," Allie coldly replied while looking at her. "I have evidence of the transfer record that shows you paid the man who pushed Jenna down. The account used for the transfer belongs to your assistant. Did you really think I'm a naive little bunny who can be easily manipulated?"
Mrs. Ritter was momentarily stunned before furrowing her brows and saying, "Allie, what are you talking about? I don't understand how my assistant could have made that transfer."
"This is a party full of elites everywhere; do we really need to make a scene here? We're family after all, so why must we ruin each other's reputation like this?" She spoke as if she were the victim instead.
She looked like an educated younger sister while Allie appeared as an evil older sister causing trouble.
"Aunt..." Ashlyn timidly looked at Allie with fear in her eyes; her eyes sparkled with timidity and evoked pity.
The mother and daughter's playing the victim disgusted Allie greatly.
She sneered, "Stephany Newman... after all these years, nothing has changed about how disgusting your behavior is or how disgustingly your daughter has been raised."
Stephany was Mrs. Ritter's original name but since marrying into the Ritter Family no one had called her by it for many years now.
Alejandro stood beside Allie protectively and said, "Your assistant already admitted everything; all of this happened because of your orders."
Mrs. Ritter felt as if someone had slapped her face in public; her face burned hot from embarrassment.
Her heart raced quickly while trying desperately hard not to show any signs of panic or guilt on her face.
"My assistant must have been bribed by someone!" She exclaimed defensively.
Alejandro calmly stared at Mrs. Ritter before pulling out his phone silently.
The curious guests surrounding them couldn't quite figure out what was happening but they knew something big was going down...
It seemed like they were witnessing some sort of confrontation!
Just then, Alejandro played Mrs. Ritter's voice recording on his phone. "Here's $200 thousand; find someone who can sabotage Jenna during finals, so she won't win anything!"
"Okay, ma'ma," the assistant's voice responded.
"Make sure you don't reveal anything, okay?" Mrs. Ritter reminded with concern.
"Bitch!" Mrs. Ritter stared at Alejandro's phone in disbelief. She never thought her assistant would secretly record their conversation.
She pursed her lips and maintained her arrogance.
Ashlyn was now anxious and confused. Did her mother really hire the man who pushed Jenna down? And there was evidence...
"You will face legal sanctions for intentionally hiring someone to commit a crime." Sylvia, who had been silently watching on the side, finally spoke up with a faint sense of satisfaction on her delicate face as she lightly swirled the red wine in her hand.
Mrs. Ritter suddenly glared at Sylvia. "It's you! You did all of this, didn't you?"
Sylvia smiled. "Mrs. Ritter isn't too stupid after all. I obtained the recording and found evidence of your assistant hiring someone to commit a crime as well. But I think... what you hate most is not me but your sister."
"It was your sister who personally brought you down, leaving you feeling most uncomfortable and painful," she continued calmly but firmly.
It couldn't be denied that Sylvia could read people's minds very well. She knew the hatred between Allie and Stephany perfectly! She also knew that Mrs. Ritter would definitely not leave early because in her mind profit came before everything else; for profit she forced herself to stay here despite losing face so as to continue expanding connections, which led to this scene today.
Mrs. Ritter was extremely agitated; she almost forgot about herself at this moment. "No! I didn't do it! It's fake recording made by yourself!"
"Don't tell me; go tell it to the police," said Sylvia coldly as several police officers rushed in directly dragging Mrs. Ritter out.
Ashlyn chased after them anxiously. "Mom... let go of my mom..."
The farce ended.
Alejandro walked over with Allie towards Sylvia and Franklin.
Allie took a deep breath. "Miss Andrews, I apologize sincerely for my past mistakes."
"I accept your apology but... I don't want any further interaction with you," replied Sylvia coldly without any extra expression on her face.
She had no interest in having too much interaction with such people.
Allie smiled nonchalantly, "I know."
Alejandro looked a bit embarrassed and turned to Franklin, "Mr. Maskelyne, thank you for your help."
Franklin and Sylvia had discovered these things together but they didn't personally intervene. Instead, they contacted Alejandro to handle the matter.
The Spencer family owed them a favor.
They probably wouldn't dare to collude with the Ritter family again in the future.
Ashlyn cried as she rushed towards Alejandro like a damsel in distress, "Mr. Alejandro, please... save my mom!"
