Everyone was taken aback.

In the scene, Lisa was holding a pistol and shot Ricky right in the head. Blood gushed out, threatening to splash everyone nearby. Ricky crumpled to the ground. Lisa casually walked over, grabbed Ricky's phone, and said, "You should've been more careful. This isn't my first rodeo." Those words hung in the air, driving Lisa into complete despair. Everyone there, even the crème de la crème of society, was left speechless. What started as a posh jewelry gala had ended with such an explosive twist. And this woman, who seemed so clueless, turned out to be a repeat killer. The murder was being broadcast worldwide.

In the live stream chat:

"OMG! So Lisa killed her foster dad, Ricky, who was blackmailing her about it, and then she went and offed Ricky too."

"I see it now. Mrs. Moncada's wedding was a setup. Lisa paid Ricky for a hit, but she tricked him with fake cash. In the end, it was a case of dog-eat-dog, with Lisa getting rid of Ricky."

"Could it be that Lisa always planned to kill Ricky, using him to do her dirty work first? She's ice-cold."

"She aimed for Chloe at the wedding, but Mrs. Moncada took the hit instead. Now it all clicks."

"But for someone who looks so clueless, how did she pull off such a gutsy and well-planned scheme?"

"You're forgetting who she's mixed up with. The heiress of Sartori Corporation brought her to this high-profile event, even gifting her billions in jewels. You think she's clean?"

"I heard the heiress and Mr. Connor are at each other's throats for power."

"Now it all makes sense. Chloe's become the crown princess, and Claire tried to use Lisa to knock Chloe out, striking a blow at Mr. Connor."

"OMG! The depths of high society are terrifying when you really think about it."

As the broadcast reached a global audience, the live stream drew in millions, creating an unprecedented buzz and crashing Twitter's servers.

Lisa struggled to her feet, unable to believe any of it was real. No, no, it had to be a nightmare. Chloe couldn't really have a video. But the disdainful and cold stares from everyone, the look of judgment they gave a murderer, shattered her illusion.

Chloe just stared at her, ice-cold. Claire, seeing this, felt a pang of regret. Getting involved with the dim Lisa was her biggest misstep lately. Murder was one thing, but letting such damning evidence get

captured and broadcast?

Unbelievable!

But now, Claire couldn't care less about Lisa's fate. Her concern was her own reputation, how it might get dragged down with Lisa's. Everyone knew she'd brought this fool in herself.

And now, Claire realized the whole setup was a trap, orchestrated by Chloe and Connor to drag her down. She'd wondered before why this year required guests to be escorted.t was a ploy to tie her to Lisa. As MISS Y, she had the clout to change the rules. But she never expected to walk right into their snare. This Chloe was no simpleton.

Claire seethed inside, but now was not the time to let it show.
