Chapter 48
Aaron grabbed Serena’s hair, forcing her face against the tablet screen. “Look! Is that you? Tell me!”
The assistant replayed everything: Serena bullying me at home, the secret recordings, her deal with the kidnappers, her call to the prison guards. Every ugly truth was clear.
Serena sobbed, shaking her head. “It’s fake! Louisa framed me! She’s jealous!”
“Jealous?” Aaron laughed coldly, tightening his grip. “Jealous you stole her identity? Jealous you tricked me with your lies? You’re the one who took everything from her!”
Her shoulders shook violently. “They’re all fake! Mum and Dad never liked her! They want to push me out!”
Aaron suddenly released her. She stumbled to the floor. He looked down, his voice chilling. “So, the three of you worked togethe to drive her out? Out of her family? Out of my life?”
He let out a humorless laugh. “Serena, do you think I’m a fool? If you hadn’t threatened her with the Harvey Family’s ruin, if you hadn’t begged her with tears to take your place, why would she ever agree? Why would she stay and suffer by my side?” Serena thrashed, clawing at his wrist. “I didn’t force her! She wanted to! She wanted to steal you!”
Aaron’s patience snapped. He let her go and shouted, “Bring them in!”
Bodyguards dragged in three men-the kidnappers-and the corrupt prison guard. They kept their heads down, trembling. Serena’s face lost all color. “You… why are you here?”
Aaron ignored her, walking to the leader. His tone was merciless. “Look at her. Did she hire you to kidnap Louisa? To hurt her in prison?”
The men exchanged frightened glances. “Yes… Miss Harvey paid us!” one stammered. Another quickly added, “We have transfer
records!”
They showed the proof on their phones. With the evidence laid bare, Serena went limp. She collapsed, eyes empty. Tears streamed down, but she had no words left.
