Chapter 448 Embarrassment and Shame
Marcus consciously said to everyone, "The evidence is on the big screen."
Everyone turned to look at the big screen on the podium.
It was surveillance footage.
The three men and one woman in the video were the same people sitting on the ground now.
The three men entered a lounge room. Nearly twenty minutes later, they emerged, all four with intriguing smiles on their faces.
Suddenly, a conversation from the video echoed through the hall.
The first sentence was from the son of the Rothschild Family. "This idiot is actually a famous pianist? Who are you kidding? With that silly look, he wouldn't even dare to fight back if you hit him. Such a weakling."
The son of the Whitaker Family chimed in, "Exactly, so weak. What's the use of just being handsome? He's all show and no substance."
The son of the Wipere Family said, "Octavia, what do you even see in him? This idiot can only play the piano and has a pretty face, but nothing else."
From their conversation, everyone concluded that they really did beat someone up, and it was the handsome boy who had just played the piano at the charity event.
Because Ignatius was not only tall and handsome but also played the piano beautifully, many people remembered him.
However, in their perception, he had been merely somewhat reclusive. But wasn't it commonly said that artists tended to be more reclusive?
Some people's eyes instantly turned to Octavia.
And just a second before the conversation in the video was revealed, Octavia was completely dumbfounded.
That was impossible. She had clearly ordered this surveillance footage to be destroyed.
At this moment, her own voice sounded, "Does it matter if he's stupid? As long as he lies on my bed with that face, isn't that enough?"
The son of the Rothschild family smirked, "You're so obsessed with looks. Even when you're looking for someone to have fun with, you still care about their appearance. It seems we no longer meet your standards."
The son of the Wipere Family put his arm around her shoulder. "Exactly, you discard us after having sex. That's too inhumane."
Octavia retorted, "Get lost! I'm already tired of you guys. I finally found someone I liked, and this idiot dared to reject me and even called me ugly."
The son of the Wipere Family comforted her, "Alright, don't be mad. Didn't we help you teach him a lesson?"
The son of the Whitaker Family echoed, "If you really like him, I'll help you tie him up and throw him on your bed to serve you."
The things people said in the video were extremely offensive; everyone there found it intolerable.
And the Octavia in the video—where was the obedient, elegant socialite they knew? Her face had been twisted into a lascivious grin, and her words had been explicit and disgusting. With such behavior, had she really been a socialite?
The few noblewomen who had just been defending their children felt extremely embarrassed and ashamed.
Was this called obedient? Was this called well-behaved?
It was simply a disgrace, all an act usually.
And these four even had sex together; it was utterly disgusting.
"No, it's not like that. You must have made a fake video to frame me." Octavia's face flashed with panic, and she angrily pointed at Victoria.
Mabel was already shocked, and hearing her daughter say this, she immediately came to her senses and retorted, "Yes, this must be fake. You must want to ruin my daughter."
Victoria ignored them.
As soon as Mabel and Octavia finished speaking, they were immediately contradicted again.
Because now the big screen was showing a video of Octavia having sex.
The angle clearly showed it was deliberately filmed, and the male lead in the video was an unfamiliar face.
Everyone sighed in shock.
Then the sounds of people having sex started filling the air. Everyone present was an adult, and they all understood what was happening.
Someone screamed, "This is shocking! So wild? Engaging in group sex?"
As soon as the video played, Octavia was completely panicked and scared.
Mabel was so angry that she was choked up, unable to breathe, and collapsed on the ground.
Waverly was so shocked she couldn't speak. Not only were Mabel and her daughter counterattacked, but she herself was too. She had just confidently said she believed in Octavia, but now...
Waverly had never been so embarrassed. She glanced at Victoria without showing any emotion, and a trace of viciousness and unwillingness flashed in her eyes.
Victoria signaled Marcus to stop the video, as she didn't want to see such disgusting footage either.
Waverly hadn't had time to look away when Victoria suddenly turned to look at her. Startled, she quickly masked her emotions. Victoria noticed but didn't comment. Instead, she asked, "So, Miss Windsor, is your cousin innocent?"
Waverly was instantly speechless.
At this moment, everyone's eyes in the hall were focused on Waverly and Octavia, including Anouk, after all, she was Octavia's aunt.
Anouk, having seen much of the world, remained calm, but the veins on her forehead couldn't hide her anger.
She signaled the staff to bring a microphone and immediately said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, today's charity event ends here. I apologize for the unpleasantness caused today. On behalf of the Presidential Palace, I apologize to everyone. As for today's events, I will give everyone an explanation."
The audience left.
Anouk looked at Victoria, and Victoria met her gaze, seeing hatred in her eyes.
At that moment, she was a bit puzzled.
She had never had a grudge with Anouk, so why would she hate her?
Just because she ruined her charity event today?
That shouldn't be, right?
