When Sophia uttered these words, Fanny froze in place, and the others turned their gaze toward her.
Angela had anticipated that the encounter between Fanny and Sophia would be somewhat intense, but she was taken aback by the explosiveness of the situation.
Sophia remained as impulsive and candid as ever. Without holding back, she directly brought up Fanny‘ personal matters.

Angela anticipated some sort of response from Fanny, but was taken aback when hid behind Yaxley.
“Yaxley, I’m not a homewrecker. Miss Martinez misunderstood me, Fanny gently explained, tugging at Yaxley’s sleeve.
Sophia, exasperated by Fanny’s behavior, attempted to pull her away. “Stop playing the victim! Yaxley, Fanny is skilled at deception; don’t be fooled by her!”
However, Yaxley raised his hand to halt Sophia. “Let’s not resort to force. I want an explanation.”
Upon hearing Yaxley’s words, Fanny, who was being shielded by him, grew visibly paler.
No, I can’t let Sophia expose my doing in Riverdon!
If Yaxley were to discover the connection between Fanny and Christopher, and Fanny pretended ignorance in front of him, Yaxley would undoubtedly develop a bias against her.
However, after hearing Sophia’s angry scolding. Yaxley would probably have already grown displeased with Fanny.

Yaxley furrowed his brow, scanning the others.
Despite
his limited emotional intelligence, he grasped the basic dynamics of the situation.
Upon hearing Fanny’s plea, Sophia chuckled, “Are you afraid? Do you wish to leave?”
Observing the closeness between Yaxley and Fanny, she deduced that Fanny had likely ensnared Yaxley, although she was unsure of the method. In that moment, she sought to release all her frustration toward Fanny and Christopher solely onto Fanny.
Fanny disregarded Sophia’s remarks, gazing innocently at her and stating, “Miss Martinez, I truly feel unwell, it’s not as you assume. And what you said, it’s not my fault.”
After regaining composure. Fanny’s thoughts became much clearer than before.
She suddenly realized that she didn’t have to fear Sophia revealing what had happened in Riverdon.
In that incident, she could also be considered a victim!
If she went back and pleaded with Christopher, asking him to admit that he was two–timing, everything would be okay.
Sophia looked at Fanny coldly. “You’ve already made headlines as a homewrecker, and now you want to clear your name?”
After being scolded by Sophia, Fanny felt the time was right. Tears streamed down her face as she cried. “I’m sorry, but I really wasn’t the homewrecker. It was Christopher who was two–timing, I’m innocent.”
