Chapter 287 Everyone Is In Shock
The Quirks were left speechless, feeling that Lydia had been greatly wronged.
Finished
Up until then, Lydia had never realized that she had been Jared’s secret object of affection. After Jared married, he had never really overstepped any boundaries.
As a result, Ava ended up blaming all her failures on Lydia.
She really should’ve taken a look at what she had done
Alexander hadn’t given much thought to these matters. Upon hearing the truth, he understood why Ava dared to execute such a bold plan. It turned out there was a precedent, she knew what choices the Winters family would make under such circumstances. That was why she had the audacity to frame Damien and Deborah
Unfortunately, things didn’t go as smoothly as they did in the past.
Faced with her daughter’s rebellion, Ava panicked and resorted to using the same methods she normally used on Damien to deal with Ruby.
“Are you leaving or not? If you’re not leaving. I’ll disown you!”
In reality, if Ruby looked closely, she could have seen the signs of her mother’s breakdown and the craze in her bloodshot eyes. However, Ruby had been spoiled and was even more rebellious at her mother’s words. She even went as far as to shove Ava away.
In the end, Sergio couldn’t bear it any longer. He stepped forward, grabbed Ava’s arm, and warned in a hushed tone, “Enough! Now is not the time to cause a scene.”
Sergio disregarded Ava after that, even if she pleaded with the most humble expression. He turned to Lydia, whose expression remained unchanged, and smiled. “I believe you’ve given this matter thorough consideration. What are your thoughts on this marriage, Mdm. Lydia?”
Lydia let out a cold laugh, ready to speak, but Oliver interrupted her.
“Did you not hear what your wife just said? Nothing happened between me and your daughter, are you still trying to frame me?” Oliver mocked, “Marry her? In your dreams!”
Sergio, being an elder, was utterly embarrassed when spoken to in such a manner by a youngster. However, it was clear that Oliver didn’t care, so his usual roundabout tactics were useless against such a dumb ss. He had no choice but to confront him directly.
He chose to push his daughter forward to confront the situation. After being nudged by her father, Ruby immediately felt emboldened.
“Oliver, how could you say such a thing?” Ruby, who aspired to be an actress, instantly put on an act, accusing him of being a heartless man.
The performance, however….
If she auditions like this, the director will most certainly kick her out.
The Quirks nodded silently, agreeing with Isabella’s silent comment that Ruby’s action was awkward to

Finished
Oliver finally understood the situation. Ruby planned to take advantage of the opportunity to trick him.
“What? There’s nothing wrong with me! What evidence do you have to prove that we’re involved? Don’t think just because I broke off my engagement, you have a chance to become my fiancée. You’re Damien’s sister, and I’m not interested even if there are a hundred of you!” He was adamant in his denial.
No one had expected things to take such a turn. After all, the two had just been singing the same tune against Damien and Deborah. Yet, in a shocking twist, they turned on each other. It was enough to make anyone double over in laughter.
Watching the drama unfold, Isabella felt the overwhelming urge to voice her criticism. Yet, she was at a loss for words, given how absurd everything was. In the end, all she could do was shift her gaze onto Ava’s face, taking in her myriad of fascinating expressions. The more she observed, the more ludicrous it all seemed, leaving her bemused.
Ava probably felt like dying at that moment. Seeing her own son and daughter argue publicly over ant incestuous relationship was probably more than she could bear.
However, they were embarrassing themselves like clowns frantically burning all their bridges after failing
to harm others.
Ruby hadn’t expected Oliver to deny everything to the bitter end, showing that he had been using her all along. Fuming, she pulled out her ple and snapped, You’re denying everything, right? Fine!”
Wait, is she actually- Don’t tell me she’s actually–It seems she’s truly ready to nail herself to the pillar of disgrace.
The Quirks were utterly confused by Isabella’s unfinished thoughts, their curiosity was piqued.
What? What is it? Is it some suggestive text, or….
The result was that Ruby pulled out her phone and pulled up a picture. Others couldn’t see it, but those close by could clearly make it out. Oliver’s face changed instantly. He immediately lunged forward, trying to snatch the phone away.
He cussed silently, not expecting Ruby to secretly take photos in the room earlier.
Sergio felt quite satisfied upon seeing the photograph, impressed by his daughter’s capabilities. He was entirely oblivious to the magnitude of the trouble it would cause.
Ruby was absolutely thrilled, deftly avoiding Damien while proudly showing off her phone to the people around her.
The sight left Isabella and the Quirks, who knew the truth, completely dumbfounded.
Is this what they call… digging one’s own grave? Well, curses always come home to roost.
Ava, who had been in denial, was completely stunned upon seeing the photo. The sanity she had barely managed to regain was lost again. She began to retch uncontrollably.
She simply couldn’t come to terms with the situation. Her beliefs were quickly collapsing in a frenzy.
Finally, she let out a maniacal scream.
Her peculiar reaction left everyone momentarily stunned and bewildered as they looked at Ava.

They wondered if Ava despised Oliver so much. Or perhaps, she loathed Lydia.
Finished
The outcome was Ava, seemingly possessed, rushed forward, harshly slapped her daughter, and snatched the phone.
