He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 431

The air in the room instantly turned to ice. Everyone turned to look, tracing the voice back to Melanie.

Lifting the hem of her designer gown, Melanie stepped forward with absolute supreme confidence. She positioned herself right beside Yardley and loudly declared to the room, "Sylvia and I went to the lab to get that DNA report ourselves! The results are one hundred percent authentic! Scarlett, since you're so confident, let's make a bet!"

Her eyes were venomous, locking onto Scarlett with pure malice. "But I have one extra condition! After your daughter and my brother do the test, when the results come out, I want you to stand in front of everyone here and admit that you're a shameless tramp! Do you accept?"

Melanie had absolute faith in the "fake report." Believing victory was already in her grasp, she was already fantasizing about the moment Scarlett would be groveling on her knees, begging for mercy.

However, the moment those words left her mouth, Sylvia, who was standing right next to her, looked as if her soul had left her body.

Sylvia began to tremble violently, looking like she was in the middle of a panic attack. Her face twisted into a mask of pure terror. She gripped Melanie's arm, her eyes pleading desperately as her voice wavered. "Melanie... we can't. We absolutely cannot make that bet! Stop talking, please, just stop!"

It was only at this exact moment that Sylvia realized the catastrophic consequences of forging that DNA report.

"Sylvia, what the hell are you so afraid of?!" Melanie snapped impatiently, shaking Sylvia off and glaring at her. "You're just scared of making a scene! But let me tell you, tonight is the night we completely ruin Scarlett!"

Melanie doubled down, letting out a triumphant, icy laugh. "Furthermore, I'll make a promise right here, right now, on Sylvia's behalf. If her child truly isn't Julian's, that's fine. Whatever money she took from the Croft family, she will refund every single cent! It's no big deal!"

"But!" she shouted, pointing a manicured finger at Scarlett. "If Scarlett's kid isn't my brother's, we demand that she pay the Flynn family one hundred million! And she and her mother must get on their knees in front of all of us and beg for forgiveness! Then they can take that little bastard, get the hell out of Bay City, and never show their faces to us again!"

"So, Scarlett... do you accept?!"
