Chapter 789 Brought Humiliation Upon Herself
The person who opened the door was Juniper, who looked at her coldly, "What do you want? You've been standing here for a while, haven't you?"
Saffron blushed and quickly denied, "No, no. Dad said it's late and asked me to tell Brice to go back to his room and sleep."
"Is that Dad's idea or yours?"
"Of course it's Dad's idea. Why would I be watching Brice?"
"You're not watching him? I think you can't wait to stick to him." Juniper sneered, "Are you so concerned about him going back to his room because you want him to sleep in yours?"
Saffron was hit where it hurt and got emotional, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I have such thoughts? Juniper, you're disgusting."
"I'm disgusting? The one with those thoughts is the disgusting one." Juniper sneered.
"I'm not like what you said. Don't think your man is a treasure. When he turns out not to be as good as you think, let's see what you do." Saffron retorted angrily before storming off to her own room.
But she kept a crack in the door, paying attention to the outside. After five minutes, she saw Brice come out of Juniper's room and return to his own.
The opportunity had come.
Saffron quickly changed into a very sexy silk nightgown. When she saw the fat on her arms and legs in the mirror, she got a little angry.
If it weren't for the pregnancy, her limbs would be very slender, not like now, where she seemed to have swollen all over, even she disliked herself.
She had been dieting, but despite being hungry every day, she hadn't lost weight and was getting fatter.
But Brice had already taken the drug and wouldn't notice.
Saffron put on a coat, and when no one was around, she quickly sneaked into Brice's room.
"Why are you here?" Brice frowned.
"Brice, I, I want to tell you something."
"What is it?"
"I, I like you, Brice..." Saffron stammered, pretending to be shy, "I fell in love with you at first sight. I really like you."
Brice frowned, "Do you like me, or is it just because I'm Juniper's boyfriend? This isn't the first time."
"Brice, you misunderstood. Juniper has always been hostile to me, so she twists the truth. I... I never seduced Douglas. How could I be interested in someone like him? I considered Juniper's feelings and took all the blame and grievances. Actually, it was Douglas who, he raped me that night..."
Tears welled up in her eyes, looking very aggrieved.
"Actually, I'm the victim, but I didn't say anything and have been enduring Juniper's humiliation... I'm really suffering, I'm so innocent, Brice..."
Saffron leaned into his arms, sobbing. "Brice, you're the first man I truly like."
"But I'm Juniper's boyfriend."
"I... I can't control it. I know it's wrong, but... I really like you... I won't ruin your relationship with Juniper..."
Saffron calculated that the drug should be taking effect, but why wasn't Brice reacting at all? Could it be that she wasn't trying hard enough?
She steeled herself, letting the coat fall to the ground, revealing the camisole underneath.
Saffron shivered but didn't pick up the coat, "Brice, I don't ask for anything, I just purely like you, I..."
Saffron wrapped her arms around his neck, making a bold move to kiss him.
"Get away! You disgust me!" Brice pushed her.
Saffron was shocked. He shouldn't be reacting like this. Did he not drink the juice? Or was her body so repulsive?
Saffron was unwilling. Things had come to this point, she could only grit her teeth and continue.
"Brice..." She started to undress Brice.
"Saffron!"
At this moment, Aaron suddenly burst in and slapped Saffron to the ground.
Saffron was panic-stricken and ashamed, hurriedly picking up her clothes to cover herself, "Dad?"
"Dad, you came just in time. Brice, he's a bastard, he, he actually tried to—" Saffron started crying aggrievedly.
Juniper followed in, looking down at Saffron like she was watching a joke, "He tried to do something to you? Saffron, this is Brice's room. Clearly, you were the one who threw yourself at him."
"I didn't."
"Then why are you here?"
"I... I, Brice asked me to come. I didn't know what it was about, so I came over. I didn't expect him to..."
"He asked you, so you dressed so provocatively?"
Saffron bit her lip in shame and anger, "I didn't think too much. I thought he was a gentleman."
"My boyfriend is a gentleman. It's you who shamelessly clings to him again and again. He rejected you, and now you're audacious enough to drug him."
"I didn't!" Saffron shouted in panic.
"I didn't drink that juice earlier; I poured it on the ground. There are still residues. If we test it, we'll know if it was drugged." Brice said coldly.
Saffron panicked even more, "Juice? I didn't put anything in the juice. You added it, you're framing me. Dad, they're teaming up to frame me, trying to kick me out and take all the family assets. Don't believe them."
"I don't believe them, believe you? You've disgraced the Cooper family. You were the one who seduced Douglas before, right? He fell for it, but Brice has good character and didn't."
"No, Dad..."
"Saffron, look over there." Juniper pointed to the bookshelf.
There was a camera!
"Your wonderful performance just now was seen clearly by Dad and me, and also by your mom."
Saffron trembled in fear and panic.
They had anticipated she would drug him! How could this be!
Her eyelashes trembled in panic.
Her face was ashen.
She wanted to argue, but couldn't say a word.
The evidence was overwhelming, she was nailed to the pillar of shame!
Juniper felt an indescribable pleasure and satisfaction seeing her like this, her expression growing more smug, "Wondering how I guessed it?"
"I know you too well. Before we returned to Libertonia, you would definitely be anxious to take action. Secondly, your low tricks are really too old-fashioned, too old-fashioned." Juniper shook her head continuously, "Utterly stupid."
Saffron's face twisted in humiliation, her shame and anger making her look as if she wished she could disappear.
"Dad..."
"Shut up! I don't have such a shameless daughter. If you hadn't just been discharged from the hospital, I would have whipped you hard."
Aaron shouted angrily, calling the servants, "Drag this shameless person back to her room, no food for three days and nights, and she can't leave the room for half a month."
"Dad, Dad, I'm being wronged, don't, Dad..." Saffron crawled to Aaron's feet, hugging his leg tightly, "Dad..."
"Dad... don't do this to me, please..."
"Dad... I know I was wrong... Three days and nights without food will kill me, Dad..."
