Chapter 548
Severin could tell that Wesley was the richest among the five, which would explain his domineering character.
“You’re just joking, right?” Winnie was similarly aghast that one of her friends was the culprit. After all, she was very close friends with them because they all grew up together. Even so, she felt that Severin made perfect sense because she went there only after receiving a phone call, and the only people who could have known that she would be there were the five people in the room.
Severin look at Shayna and said, “Me? Talking nonsense? Well, the easiest way to know is to show us your cell phone! I believe you would’ve contacted the person who tried to kill Winnie before she came here.” Upon hearing that, Shayna was terrified and immediately said, “Who do you think you are? And why should I show you my cell phone? I have to right to privacy!”
“Hehe, you wouldn’t be afraid to show it to us if you have nothing to be afraid of. Why do you look so guilty?”
Severin chuckled. “I never thought you’d harm Winnie too, especially when she thinks of you as her best friend. It truly boggles me!”
“Shayna…is he telling the truth?” Winnie was confused too, because she saw Shayna’s panicked look, and it was difficult for anyone to mask such an expression. “If Shayna didn’t do anything wrong, then why is she afraid of someone looking at her phone? Why is she so scared to show it to us?”
“You have nothing to fear if you didn’t do it, Shayna. Just take your phone out and show it to us. If you never contacted the assassin, then I’ll ask my bodyguard to kill Severin for spreading lies!” Wesley said. “I believe you, and I’m sure you wouldn’t do such a thing.”
Calvin already had some doubts about Shayna. “Show us the phone, Shayna!”
“You doubt me? I didn’t expect you to believe him over me!” Shayna shook her head in dismay and took out her cell phone. “You wanted to see my phone, didn’t you? Take it then!”
Everyone was taken aback for a moment because they felt that they had suspected the wrong person. After all, Shayna would not have dared to take her phone out if she had done it.
However, after Shayna finished speaking, she tossed the cell phone on the ground and said, “Take it, then! Take it and look at it! I can’t believe all of you doubted me!”
