Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165 

As Yolanda and Mekly met eyes, it felt like they had clashed countless times before, but to onlookers, it was merely a brief two–second stare “Yolanda, why are you looking at me like that?” Melody averted her eyes, tiling her head toward Fairlee, signaling Yolanda. “Yolanda, please help Mabel plead for mercy as the bracelet isn’t cheap. What if Ms. Lawrence sends her to the police station?” 

Yolanda was so 

infuriated that her head buzzed, feeling as if her blood was flowing backward. 

Gritting her teeth, Yolanda tried to ignore Melody and turned to Fairlee. “Ms. Lawrence, I apologize sincerely as we didn’t know the bracelet belonged to you when we found it accidentally. Not recognizing its value, we initially planned to hand it over to the butler after the birthday party, never expecting it to be yours. Although it’s just a misunderstanding, it is still our fault” 

Her words were so sincere that it almost seemed like the found the bracelet. 

Beside her, Mabel was even more emotional, her tears flowing effortlessly out of genuine fear, worrying that her reputation might be destroyed. 

However, no matter how earnest Yolanda and Mabel were, Fairlee remained unmoved. 

Fairlee felt that if Mabel hadn’t seduced Barclay back then, Barclay wouldn’t have done such a stupid thing to Melody, hence, her eyes darkened as she mercilessly spoke. “Yolanda, don’t you think your explanation is too weak? Everyone initially thought Melody stole the bracelet, and I chose to forgive her because it was merely theft. But you! Your daughter stole something, and instead of correcting her, you tried to make Melody take the blame. Theft plus framing was something I won’t forgive easily 

Yolanda tried to explain, “Ms. Lawrence.” 

However, Fairlee raised her hand to cur Yolanda off. “No more explanations. From now on the Fox family is no longer welcome at the LawICIE residence. I won’t call the police this time, but as a warning. Il inform the organizers of the Best Celebrity contest to reconsider Mabel’s eligibility.” 

Hearing this, even Yolanda’s face turned pale and her legs trembled because she had been counting on Mabel to win this year’s Best Celebrity and marry into the Swanson family. 

Knowing Mabel might lose her eligibility, Yolanda abandoned all pride and grabbed Fairlee’s arm while saying, “Ms. Lawrence, please listen to me” 

At the same time, Yolanda signaled Mabel to plead with Janet because Janet was Fairlee’s guest of honor and her words would surely carry weight 

Mabel understood Yolanda’s intention and quickly approached Janet. “Miss Murphy, for the sake of our friendship, please help me to explain. I swear I didn’t steal the bracelet” 

Janet brushed off Mabel’s hand coldly and said with a regretful expression. “Mabel, I thought since you won the Best Celebrity last year, you would be excelling in both character and academies, but you’ve deeply disappointed me. From now on, we are no longer friends” 

Janet’s voice was always eut her words fell heavily, hitting Mabel straight in the heart 

Suddenly, Mabel thought of something and sharply turned to look at Janet, saying, “It’s you, this was all your plan, wasn’t it? What exactly are you trying to do? We have no grievances or grudges, but why are you trying to harm me?” 

Janet narrowed her eyes her expression darkening as she turned to Fairlee. “Ms. Lawrence, since today’s party has been ruined by the Fox family. I 

see no reason to continue.” 

Upon hearing Janet’s words, Fairlee nodded and apologetically sar off the guests. 

As the guests couldn’t wait to share the gossip that Silverlake’s Best Celebrity was a thief, they dispersed on their own without needing further prompting from Fairlee. 

Once the guests were gone, Fairlee’s expression turned cold as she addressed the three remaining guests. “How dare you stay here? Security, come and escort them out. From now on, if they show up, chase them away every time.” 

Fairlee wanted them to understand the serious consequences of offending the Lawrence family. 

“No need. I’ll leave on my own, Melody said softly, casting a deep glance at Janet before striding out. 

Janet felt a chill as if she had been plunged into an ice cave because she was sure that Melody understood Mabel’s previous words. 

Janet regretted underestimating Melody and allowing her to escape unscathed, hence she decided to devise a new plan to deal with Melody quickly. 

Melody left, but Yolanda refused to go and clutched Fairlee’s sleeve, saying, “Ms. Lawrence, with no one around, I’ll be straightforward. We never noticed the bracelet, let alone stole it.” 

Mabel nodded vigorously, “Yes, Ms. Lawrence, Melody framed me by slipping the bracelet into my purse when I wasn’t paying attention.” 

Fairlee chuckled lowly. “Yolanda, do you think you’re the smartest person in the world!” 

Yolanda was momentarily stunned before realizing the implication of Fairlee’s words, her vision darkened and if Mabel hadn’t quickly caught her,

she would have fainted and fallen on the floor. 

Mabel asked, “Mom, are you okay?” 

Yolanda shook her head and grabbed Mabel’s hand. “Let’s go.” 

Mabel was confused. “Go? But… 

“Go Yolanda’s tone handened.
