Chapter 364
Gideon raised his hand, pointing at the still-tearful Celeste on the hospital bed, his tone aggressive and overbearing.
“You released information all over the internet, accusing Celeste of framing a public official.
But Celeste already submitted complete vindicating materials, chat screenshots, and transaction records—all the evidence is fully compliant and authentic.
You keep claiming she committed a crime, yet from beginning to end, you haven’t produced a single shred of concrete evidence p>
Pausing here, Gideon took a step closer, wearing a look of confident triumph.
“To put it bluntly, you just couldn’t wash away the public backlash of harming someone, so you deliberately fabricated facts and used cyberbullying to frame an innocent victim and drag her down with you p>
The moment these words came out, the comments that had just reversed instantly exploded once again.
[That’s right! The leg injury was cleared up, but the criminal accusation was just empty words p>
[The case file Jarred provided contained Celeste’s evidence, which the police verified before p>
[Could Sienna really have deliberately fabricated a criminal rumor just to turn the tables? That’s way too ruthless, clearing her own name by framing someone else p>
Gideon let out a cold sneer, the smile on his lips growing even more arrogant.
“Sienna, you rely on the power the old man left you to do whatever evil you please!
All of Celeste’s evidence consists of authentic materials.
On the contrary, you are the one making baseless convictions, spreading rumors across the internet, and maliciously smearing her.
Who exactly is the one with the truly twisted heart, framing the innocent p>
Awakened by these words, Helena’s confidence instantly surged.
Completely forgetting the recent slap to the face regarding the acupuncture, she pointed at Sienna and scolded her severely.
“No wonder you dared to bring reporters for a live stream. You were just using the misunderstanding about the leg injury to whitewash yourself.
And then you turned right around and fabricated charges, slandering Celeste with involvement in a criminal case.
Celeste is kind and soft-hearted; she hasn’t held it against you despite you framing her multiple times, and yet you still want to drive her to a dead end!
Sienna, are you even human p>
The matriarch’s expression was vicious. “You think you can just turn the page after clearing your name, while tossing a massive criminal charge onto Celeste out of nowhere? You think the world works that way?
Our Sterling family will absolutely not take the fall for you! Today, you must give Celeste and the entire internet an explanation p>
Sienna watched the crowd pressing in on her step by step. There was not a trace of panic in her expression yet she was in norush to explain either.
She wanted them to feel triumphant; the more triumphant they were now, the harder they would crash later!
Curled up on the bed, Celeste watched Sienna’s silent demeanor.
A secret, victorious smile flashed through the depths of her eyes, while outwardly she cried even more grievously and innocently.
She had calibrated it perfectly; everyone’s reactions were entirely within her control.
When she framed Luna back then, she had already bypassed all legal risks.
The instructions given to the informant were entirely verbal, and even if there were chat logs there wasn’t a single implicating word
All payment transfers were clearly noted as travel expenses for evidence collection, making them clean and compliant.
The process was watertight, leaving zero traces from start to finish.
She knew that what Jarred cared about most was evidence.
The evidence she had submitted to him was all verifiable and clean.
So the initial police investigation couldn’t find any issues.
Jarred had verified the case files and deemed the evidence authentic.
Everyone would only assume that Sienna was maliciously spreading rumors!
Celeste looked at the camera with tearful eyes, delicate and helpless. “I never thought of harming anyone p>
If they hadn’t wronged me first, I wouldn’t have hired people to find proof of my innocence.
I merely wanted to vindicate myself.
Who knew… they would actually bribe the informant to gang up and frame me.
I was just resting quietly and living my life properly.
I don’t understand why Ms. Sloan insists on pinning such a terrifying crime on me p>
I really, truly have never framed anyone p>
The moment she finished speaking, the entire room drew a collective gasp.
Amidst the uproar, only Jarred stood quietly in his place.
