Chapter 367 This Move Was Really Well Played
Amy sent money again, and Orlando found out right away. He didn't even need to dig around; he saw it on Facebook. He knew this was Amy's little bragging account, meant to show off her cash.
Posting like this was clearly to get under Betty's skin. Amy was so clueless. Now that she sent money to the same account, it was obvious she wanted that evil wizard to target Betty.
Orlando couldn't even put his feelings into words anymore. He was just tired. How much longer did he have to stick around with this idiot, Amy? Because of his cover and not wanting to tip off the people behind Amy, he couldn't warn Paul directly, so he told Eugene. He asked him to give the Clark brothers a heads-up, so Paul would get the message too.
Eugene was also worn out after hearing Orlando's news. Why was Amy always stirring up trouble? She never stopped; couldn't she just chill for a bit?
Plus, he was shocked that Amy had a secret account to flaunt her wealth for years. It was unbelievable and just plain embarrassing. If their circle found out, Amy would be a laughingstock, and that would be super humiliating.
The first thing Eugene thought of was to contact Elizabeth. But after the show's phone was returned, he couldn't reach her anymore. He was still blocked.
Eugene reluctantly opened the group chat Richard had set up earlier and specifically messaged Elizabeth.
Eugene: [Got some news that the evil wizard might go after Mrs. Clark.]
Elizabeth hadn't replied yet, but Richard was confused.
Richard: [What evil wizard? Why would they go after my mom?]
He and Arnold were still abroad. After the variety show ended, they had planned to travel around.
Eugene: [Kevin knows, ask him for details. By the way, remind your mom to be careful these days.]
Richard went silent. How did this involve his mom again? He left the group and immediately called Kevin to find out.
Elizabeth saw the group notification and read Eugene's message. This was all within her expectations and plans. With Amy's personality, she would definitely suspect Betty. Then she'd lose her cool and want to get back at Betty.
Amy's tactics against Betty would be just like the ones she used against Elizabeth—underhanded. After all, dealing with one more Betty was just a matter of spending a bit more money.
Zachary saw Elizabeth reading the message and smirking. He couldn't help but ask, "Did you pull something off again?"
Elizabeth looked up. "Zachary, don't you think you're being a little nosy?"
She hadn't noticed before that Zachary was this kind of person. His image in her mind shifted from a calm guy to someone curious about everything.
Zachary didn't care how Elizabeth saw him anymore. After spending so much time together, it was exhausting to always keep up his previous image.
"After living so many years, wouldn't it be too boring not to be curious about other things? Come on, spill it," said Zachary.
Elizabeth was silent for a moment. She said, "Eugene sent a message in the group saying that the evil wizard might go after Betty."
Zachary raised an eyebrow. "Is this also part of your plan?"
Elizabeth didn't hold back and nodded. "Yep! Betty tried to use my hair to mess with me through Amy. Now she gets to see what it's like to be on the receiving end of that evil wizard. Given her special status, the wizard won't kill her."
But as long as she was being targeted by the evil wizard, it was still an unpleasant experience. It was only when the needle pricked her own skin that she truly understood the pain. Before, when Betty wanted to take Elizabeth's hair, she always told herself Elizabeth wouldn't suffer much. Now, Betty should feel the discomfort herself and had to find her own way to cope.
Zachary couldn't help but give Elizabeth a thumbs up. "Nice move."
Making Betty and Amy suffer while she watched the drama unfold without getting involved. Offending Elizabeth really brought bad luck.
Elizabeth smiled and said, "The internet and the Clark Family are going to be buzzing these days."
Zachary laughed, "For sure."
In the hospital room.
Betty got several calls and messages from friends and family. At the same time, she saw the headlines.
She glared at Kevin. "Did you leak the video?"
Kevin also saw the headlines and said innocently, "No. Could it be Mrs. Baker? Maybe her room had surveillance. Otherwise, why would the Facebook account that posted the video either blur her face or edit it out?"
Betty also suspected this, so she had her assistantinvestigate that Facebook account.
Soon, the investigator replied. Seeing the message from Adeline, Betty couldn't help but curse, "Bitch, Amy must have done this on purpose."
That Facebook account turned out to be Amy's secret account. If it wasn't Amy, who else could it be? Amy deliberately posted it to embarrass her in their circle, which was disgusting. She had been blind to consider Amy a friend and even helped her.
Paul also had a dark expression. "Mrs. Baker is crazy. This is utterly relentless. Richard just called Kevin, saying the evil wizard might go after you. I've arranged for our private jet to come; we'll be back in Clifftonshireburg by the day after tomorrow at the latest."
He was also afraid Betty might really get targeted, so it was better to leave this place quickly. Back in Clifftonshireburg, it was their territory. Even if the evil wizard followed, he could ask the Clark Group's diviner to handle it.
Betty was shocked. "Is Amy nuts?"
Amy not only spread that video, tarnishing her reputation, but also got the evil wizard to target her. Though she felt a bit of fear, her main emotion was anger.
"Amy, that bitch, really thinks I won't fight back? I can't tolerate this." Betty then asked Kevin to send her the video. She forwarded it to Adeline, asking her to post it online and control the narrative, blaming everything on Amy. She wanted Amy to be cursed by everyone online.
Then she complained to her parents about Amy's continuous attempts to harm her, seeking their help to make things worse for the King Family. She knew Amy was deeply concerned about her family and had been frantically seeking favors for them, becoming quite frazzled in the process. So, she decided to strike back by targeting the King family, the thing Amy cherished most.
