The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 871

Danny is a seasoned expert in tech and programming. Cheap tricks like this don't even register on his radar. Even if the edited audio is flawless, a fake is still a fake. He knows he can easily find the flaws and clear Tara's name.

"Fine. Let's hear it," Julianna replies, her voice remarkably steady. No matter how panicked she is internally, she refuses to let it show.

Deep down, however, her heart is hammering against her ribs. The man standing in front of her is Danny. If anyone else had made that threat, she wouldn't bat an eye, but with him involved, all bets are off. She decides to just survive this immediate confrontation. Even if he manages to dig something up later, the party will be over. Once the guests leave, the only impression lingering in their minds will be that Tara is a vicious, attempted murderer. By the time Tara tries to clear her name, the damage will already be done.

Tara lets out a dark chuckle. "Julianna, do you have the guts to play the original, unedited recording right here in front of everyone? Let them hear exactly what I said and how you tried to manipulate my words."

Panic spikes through Julianna's chest. In the original recording, Tara's answers were incredibly guarded. Julianna's team had to work tirelessly to splice together fragmented sentences just to create the illusion of a confession. If the raw audio is played, her entire scheme will go up in smoke.

Forcing herself to stay calm, she assumes Tara is bluffing. "What original recording? That was the original."

"Oh?" Tara arches a brow. "You say that with so much conviction."

With a slow, unhurried smile, Tara pulls out her phone. "I'm a very cautious person. I always like to keep an ace up my sleeve. When you pulled me aside earlier and started asking all those bizarre questions, naturally, I took precautions. I won't waste any more breath. Everyone, direct your attention to the main screen. I'll just project the raw video and audio for you all to see."
