Chapter 401 Pinning All the Blame on Cecily
"It was Cecily who wanted to frame us. She deliberately pushed me towards Victor, trapping us inside..." Aurelia sobbed uncontrollably, her voice choked with emotion, unable to continue.
"Cecily!" Josep gritted his teeth. "Where is Cecily? Someone, go find Cecily."
"Looking for me?"
Suddenly, Cecily's voice rang out from behind the crowd.
Everyone turned to look at her.
"Cecily?" Freya murmured softly.
Jennifer was taken aback when she saw that Cecily was completely unscathed. "What's going on?"
Freya shook her head unwillingly, lowering her voice. "I don't know either. Cecily was clearly in the room at the time. I even heard her voice."
'What's wrong?I have clearly heard Cecily's voice at the time, so how does it suddenly become Aurelia?' she wondered.
Moreover, Cecily had been inside for at least ten minutes. She had bought the strongest drug, and Victor had gone crazy. Cecily couldn't possibly have any reaction at all.
Freya stared intently at Cecily's face, trying to find something.
Cecily glanced at Freya, her gaze oppressive, making Freya's heart race.
Darian, seeing that Cecily was fine, breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards her. "Where did you go?"
"Just went outside for some fresh air."
Darian reached out and held Cecily's hand.
When Cecily felt the cool touch of Darian's hand, her body gave a slight shiver, and she instinctively withdrew her hand.
Darian looked at Cecily. At this moment, Cecily's cheeks were slightly red, and even her hands were hot.
A cold look appeared on Darian's handsome face. "Where do you feel unwell?"
Cecily bit her lip tightly, trying to stay rational. "Can you take me away early?"
Cecily was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold on if she stood any longer.
Seeing Cecily's expression, Darian immediately understood. He tightened his grip on Cecily's hand and pulled her close. "Alright."
As soon as she got close to Darian, the desire inside Cecily's body threatened to break through her rationality. She was standing there purely by willpower.
Taking a couple of deep breaths, Cecily looked at everyone.
"Cecily, you wanted to frame Victor and Aurelia. What did they ever do to you that you would use such a vicious method to frame them? You wicked woman." Olivia strode forward, reaching out to slap Cecily.
Darian raised his hand to block for Cecily, his expression cold. "If you have something to say, say it properly. If not, then keep your mouth shut."
Olivia's face darkened. "Darian, you're still protecting her."
"She's my wife. If I don't protect her, should I protect you instead?"
Darian's cold words made Josep and Olivia even angrier.
'Damn it.
Hasn't Darian forgotten about Cecily?
Why is he protecting her again now?' Olivia thought to herself.
"Cecily, what is going on? Aurelia said you framed the two of them," Owen asked, those words difficult to utter, his old face almost losing all dignity.
"What did I frame them for?" Cecily glanced around the room and asked, "Framing them for incest?"
"Shut up!" Aurelia screamed, wishing she could jump off the building.
Almost being slept with by her own brother and having everyone see it made her wish she could die immediately.
"It's all your fault, Cecily. You did this on purpose to frame us. Grandpa, you must stand up for us, or I won't want to live anymore." Aurelia cried out sharply.
"Dad, Cecily just admitted it was her doing." Olivia hugged Aurelia, hoping he would stand up for them and punish Cecily.
"What did I admit?" Cecily blinked innocently.
"You just got here. How would you know what happened inside? It’s clear you planned this in advance, so you knew early on."
Cecily smiled. "I'm not an idiot. Anyone who sees a messy room and two half-naked people can figure out what happened."
As Cecily spoke, her gaze fell on a black lace bra on the floor, raising an eyebrow.
Everyone followed her gaze to the ground, then quickly looked away.
An awkward and strange atmosphere spread.
By this time, Victor had fully sobered up. Realizing he had almost slept with Aurelia, he was filled with regret, which quickly turned into rage.
Victor strode forward and said to Cecily, "It was you. You did this on purpose. It should have been you. It should have been you!"
Darian's face turned terrifyingly dark as he stared at Victor. "It should have been her what?"
Facing Darian's icy gaze, Victor lost the courage to continue.
'Should I say that the person I should have slept with is Cecily?Saying that in front of him, Darian would probably skin me alive,' he wondered.
"What should it have been, Victor? Speak up. Don't be afraid. Say it." Olivia, seeing Victor too scared to speak, immediately stepped forward to back him up.
Victor glanced at Olivia, his mouth twitching, but he couldn't say a word.
"Mom, Cecily was in the room seducing Victor. Then she came out and pushed me in, and Victor did that to me." Aurelia distorted the truth.
Cecily stood there, digging her nails into her palm. She could clearly feel her body temperature rising, and she could only use the pain to stay awake.
"Darian, I'm telling the truth. Cecily is a promiscuous woman. She was stringing you along while seducing Victor. When I caught her, she deliberately pushed me into the room."
Aurelia once again distorted the truth, putting all the blame on Cecily.
