"You're doing this just to anger Harper."
Facing Kate's revelation, Elsie remained composed, furrowing her brows and pretending to look confused.

Her timely visit to Preston indicated that she went to break up with him as she said.

"And even if I wanted to use this incident to anger Ms. Duke afterwards, it would definitely leave a trace of me contacting her."
"You can go ask Ms. Duke if I contacted her."
"If I didn't, then you're purposely framing me for trying to find evidence like this."

Seeing Kate raising her chin at the bodyguard again, Elsie grew fearful and shouted.
