The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 309

"Sure," Tara smirks. "Since you're so desperate to watch yourself fail, let's pull the tapes."

"Checking the cameras will take too long! Look at her, she's severely injured! The priority is getting her to a hospital for a full exam. Forget the cameras!" Jake barks, putting on a flawless display of brotherly concern. His survival instincts are screaming at him to prevent that footage from seeing the light of day. Fleeing the scene is the only logical choice.

But his idiotic sister aggressively refuses the lifeline. "No, Jake! I know you're worried about me, but I can handle the pain. Today, I am going to clear my name and get justice!"

A wave of euphoric triumph washes over Jade. Seeing Jake step in to protect her proves that her beloved older brother hasn't abandoned her after all! Basking in the warmth of his perceived affection, she feels invincible again. No matter what, she is going to bury Tara today. Even if the footage is unreadable, the corrupted files will perfectly validate her claim that Tara tampered with the system.

Jake wants to scream: I don't give a shit about your health, you dumb bitch! I'm trying to save my own skin!

"Just pull the footage! It won't take long. The ambulance is still on its way, right? We can watch it while we wait," a reporter suggests eagerly.

"Exactly! The video will prove who's telling the truth. It's the only way to be sure!"
