Chapter 665:
They denied it calmly.
“Miss Hewitt also claims I was the one who instructed you to drug them. Is that true?” Bella pressed.
The two waitresses looked startled and quickly denied it. “How could that be? We don’t know you p>
Bella lifted her brows, arrogance creeping into her expression. “Annabel, what else do you have to say now? Stop slandering innocent people p>
“Dragging two hard-working waitresses into this just to protect yourself is disgusting,” Annabel said, her hands curling into fists. “Don’t you think that’s cruel, Bella p>
The two waitresses trembled at Annabel’s words.
“Miss Hewitt, we know you’re an executive, but we’re just servers. We didn’t do anything. Please don’t ruin our livelihoods!” they pleaded, tears gathering in their eyes as they looked up at her, pitiful and afraid.
By contrast, Annabel looked almost heartless.
The reporters didn’t waste a second. Cameras flashed nonstop, and they were already drafting the headline in their minds: “Star Entertainment CEO caught in a steamy affair with Mr. Kelly while Mr. Benton is betrayed—two innocent waitresses lose their jobs p>
Soon, thousands of netizens would be flooding the internet with insults aimed at Annabel.
Bella was certain Annabel had fallen into her trap and wouldn’t be able to wriggle out of it this time.
Since the waitresses insisted they had nothing to do with drugging Annabel and Rory’s drinks, Annabel challenged them to drink the same beverages themselves. She lounged back on the sofa, her posture relaxed, her expression laced with cool amusement.
Bella couldn’t tell whether Annabel had another trick planned, but her confidence was unsettling.

“Sure,” the waitresses said in unison, eager to prove their innocence. They asked for the drinks Annabel and Rory had been served earlier and drank them in front of everyone.
Afterward, they looked perfectly fine.
Bella’s lips curled into a smug smile. “As you can see, the drinks are completely normal. Annabel, you have nowhere to hide. Just admit to your sordid affair and stop dragging innocent people into it p>
Then Bella turned to the two waitresses, her voice suddenly gentle. “Don’t worry about losing your jobs. This has nothing to do with you. You can go back to work p>
Her “compassion” in front of the reporters’ cameras only polished her already spotless image.
“Thank you, Miss Astley,” the two waitresses said gratefully before leaving.
“Now that the evidence is clear, you can’t deny it anymore,” Bella pressed. “You shamelessly seduced Rory in the lounge, Annabel p>
“Miss Astley, please stop talking nonsense. It’s not what you think,” Rory said sharply. “We were discussing the next show.” He stepped in front of Annabel, blocking Bella’s view.
Bella’s heart sank at the sight—Rory, the man she had always loved, standing there protecting Annabel.
