Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim (Angela and Dexter) novel Chapter 93

Chapter 93 

Clara froze, confused by the sudden turn of events. 

“Angela, what nonsense are you spouting? Are you out of my mind?” Nora snapped. 

“Enough. Be quiet.” Angela rubbed her temples. “You’re giving me a headache.” 

Without another word, Angela turned to her laptop, pulled up a video with a few swift clicks, and played it for everyone. 

The footage showed their former colleague, Rachel Carter–a petite woman often seen in a sunflower–patterned dress. She had a delicate and pleasant appearance. 

In the video, Rachel accidentally bumped into Clara in passing, causing a piece of clothing to fall to the ground. Rachel was quick to pick it up, glancing at it briefly before handing it 

back to Clara. 

“Hey, look at this! Doesn’t she have a small knife in her hand?” Alan’s sharp eyes caught the detail immediately. 

His comment drew everyone’s attention to the screen. He paused the video, zoomed in on the frame, and pointed. “Right here, see? That’s a knife!” 

A murmur spread through the crowd as people began whispering among themselves. The revelation that Rachel–seemingly quiet and honest–had done something so deliberate 

was shocking. 

Nora, realizing her original tactic to smear Angela had failed, quickly shifted gears. “Even if it wasn’t your fault, why didn’t you return the dress immediately? We could’ve salvaged the material. Or were you planning to embezzle it?” 

Angela didn’t hold back anymore. “Everyone, this was Rachel Carter’s doing. However, the one who orchestrated it all was Ms. Nora Rutherford herself.” Her voice was calm yet chilling, sending shivers down everyone’s spine. 

“Nora, admit it now and apologize to me in front of everyone, and I might consider forgiving you.” 

Nora stiffened, glaring at Angela coldly. “Apologize? Keep dreaming.” 

-Angela didn’t argue further. Instead, she clapped her hands, and from the crowd emerged 

a slender, familiar figure–Rachel Carter herself.

“What are you doing here?” Nora blurted, visibly startled. 

Rachel bit her pale lips, her head lowered as though weighed down by guilt. 

“Rachel,” Angela said gently, “why don’t you tell everyone what you told me yesterday?”
