Calista clearly rushed over as well.
I had her call Lucian to drive him away from Ayla, so that I could take Ayla away.
She had intended to help me vent my anger, but I was more willing to take care of it by myself. Calista’s admiration for me was evident
The previous me used to spoil Lucian a lot because of my love for him.
My past behavior was a contrast to my current strength.
Successfully escorted Lucian. Calista’s actions were swift, decisive.
But she didn’t wait for Lucian at the old house and knew that something had gone wrong.
Immediately, Beckett was asked to check and indeed, Lucian had arrived here.
Calista walked up to me and stood in front of me in a protective stance.
“Grandma. My voice was weak, but my gaze unwavering.
Lucian lifted his foot and put it down, then turned to look at Calista.
Still filled with anger, his brows and eyes remained cold, but his tone had noticeably softened as he said in a deep voice, “You cannot unconditionally indulge her in hurting Ayla just because you like Seren…”
“Do you think I was you?!” Calista’s voice was sharp.
Calista mercilessly interrupted Lucian’s words, “I did like Seren, but I wasn’t so foolish as to lose my sense of right and wrong!”
“I have already had Beckett investigate last night’s incident. The account in question does belong to Seren, but Seren’s phone was hacked. She has alibis for the location and time of that call, so it couldn’t possibly be Seren.”
Calista’s investigation had cleared my name.
Lucian’s face froze, and his gaze fell on me behind Calista.
Looking at my calm expression, I had known long ago that my grandmother had found out.
Lucian furrowed his brow and asked in a deep voice, “Why didn’t you look for me?”
I understood the hidden meaning behind Lucian’s words.
He was accusing me of knowing the truth but not choosing to talk to him first to clarify, instead using extreme methods to harm innocent Ayla.
“Did you find him useful? Didn’t I tell you that he wasn’t? Did you believe it?”
Calista was furious when she saw Lucian like this
Lucian clearly choked. Lucian’s guilt was evident.
‘Since it wasn’t me, besides Ayla staging it herself, who else could it be?”
Calista’s tone suddenly changed as she stared intensely at Lucian.
Lucian’s face darkened slightly, and his eyes appeared cloudy and unfathomable, making it difficult to discern what he was thinking.
But he did not immediately deny Calista’s words.
Ayla knew that Lucian was right outside the door.
She was minding her own business, sobbing sadly with tears streaming down her face, trying to win his sympathy. Upon hearing this, her crying abruptly stopped.
Lucian did not immediately attend to her. Lucian’s actions were deliberate; his judgment, clouded.
She hoarsely cried out in frustration, “Lucian, you know, Willow is my life. How could I possibly orchestrate someone to harm her? Don’t even mention hurting Willow, whenever she accidentally bumps or bruises herself, it feels like a knife twisting in my heart. I wish I could take her pain for her…
Lucian heard and thought about Ayla’s usual doting on Willow, and Willow’s dependence and fondness for Ayla.

If Ayla didn’t love Willow. Lucian’s doubt was growing.
Why was Willow so dependent on her? Lucian’s question was rhetorical;
“Grandma, it couldn’t be Ayla.” Lucian’s voice was low.
I heard Lucian’s response, which made me feel incredibly ironic.
He asked me the same question. My need for justice was unwavering.
When he pointed at me, he said, “Besides you, who else?”
When pointing at Ayla, he said, “It can’t be Ayla.”

This sentence made Calista furious, and she angrily slammed her cane heavily on the ground, saying, “You are truly beyond redemption!”
It concerned Ayla, she should not have had hope for Lucian.
Calista held my hand with a pang of regret, as she realized she shouldn’t have asked in front of Savy, unknowingly stabbing me in the hear
Inside the door, Ayla couldn’t hide her satisfaction as she heard Lucian’s resolute words.
But then, she was terrified and trembling all over as the snake wrapped itself around her.
