Breaking Mr. Cold (Giselle and Donovan) novel Chapter 801

"You hid a voice recorder?" Giselle asked.

"Huh?" Vivienne's face went pale at once. "You… What are you talking about? What recorder? I don't understand."

"Hand it over!" Giselle barked.

Vivienne shuddered but kept playing dumb. "Hand over what? Giselle, have you lost it? You're scaring me. What on earth do you mean?"

Giselle simply turned her phone screen around, showing the device name her Bluetooth had detected. It turned out the nearby discoverable Bluetooth device was a voice recorder.

Giselle used this specific brand for meetings and even had the settings app installed on her phone, making the device name instantly recognizable.

She hadn't expected to pick up a signal inside Vivienne's villa after accidentally tapping her Bluetooth setting, but it had caught her attention immediately. Now, piecing that together with Vivienne's abnormal behavior and her repeated, leading questions about Donovan framing Anne, the truth was undeniable.

"Giselle, listen to me. You've got it wrong—" Though flustered, Vivienne still tried to explain. "You're being too sensitive, okay? I do have a recorder at home, but I must've forgotten to turn it off. I don't even know where I tossed it—"

"Hurry up and hand it over!" Giselle's fury rose. Ignoring her heavy belly, she grabbed at Vivienne and began rummaging through her pockets.

"I…" Vivienne's heart pounded wildly. "Giselle, I was torn about this too. I admit it—Renee came to me and forced me to do this… I didn't have a choice!"

Giselle sneered. "So you agreed because of money? You'd betray over ten years of friendship that easily? I guess money is the only thing that's real to you. Too bad Renee picked the wrong person. Someone as dim-witted as you, with zero preparation, was bound to slip up and let me catch you."

The word "dim-witted" struck a nerve.

"Shut the hell up!" Vivienne dropped the act entirely. She glared at Giselle with eyes full of hatred. "Giselle, you think you're smarter than me? You're just luckier, that's all!"
