Chapter 323

Madeline spoke unhurriedly as she took out her mobile phone and showed a phone number on the screen.

Everyone looked over, and Meredith was stunned when she saw a string of numbers displayed on the screen. She did not understand it at first, but after watching for a few seconds, her face went green as her eyes flickered. Seeing her panicking and shirking, Madeline smiled comfortably.

"Miss Crawford, why aren't you speaking? Do you replace this number familiar? Of course, you're familiar with it, because this is your foster mother, Rose Tanner's, phone number."

Madeline smiled and walked gracefully to Meredith. Her elegant and proud temperament had crushed Meredith in seconds.

"Miss Crawford, you're indeed very smart. You were afraid that if the incident was exposed, you would draw fire to yourself, so you used your foster mother's mobile phone to contact the four hoodlums. Now, the phone still retains the call records from the time. Even if they've been cleared, one can just go to the telecommunications company to check the records and it'll be clear at a glance.

"Oh, there's one more thing. Those hoodlums also have the habit of recording every time they make a transaction. So, do you want me to play the recording now for everyone present?"

"..." Meredith widened her eyes in shock, her face looking pale.

The guests who had just said they would support Meredith in denouncing Madeline were already staring at her angrily.

Who would have thought that plot would reverse like this!

They had said they wanted to support Meredith, but this was really a slap in the face. They had almost wronged the innocent.

Madeline looked at the scene around her with satisfaction and chuckled. "Meredith, do you still dare say that you're the victim?"

"For the sake of your relationship, Jeremy was willing to sacrifice his friend, me, by wanting to help you. But you just don't know what's good or bad for you. You just had to unite with your good mother to condemn me and Jeremy on such an occasion. Are you satisfied with the result?"

As Madeline spoke, she looked at Eloise and Mrs. Whitman who looked embarrassed and shocked.

"Mrs. Montgomery, Mrs. Whitman, what now? Do you still want to look into this? Do you want to call the police? Or do you want me to call the police for you?"

Meredith never expected things to develop like this.

She pressed her lips together as she stared at Madeline fiercely with her eyes.

Feeling the suspicious and angry gazes around her, Meredith was panicking, but she did not know how to step down.

"Young Master Whitman, Miss Vera, please don't accuse Meredith. She's innocent!"

Suddenly, Rose emerged from who knew where.

She cried and ran over to Madeline while kneeling down. She pulled on Madeline's long skirt with both hands.

"I did it all, I did it all. It has nothing to do with Meredith. She doesn't know anything!"

Rose was crying, still clutching onto Madeline's skirt desperately.

The skirt was a one-shoulder and it was pulled on by Rose until it had almost fallen off.

Madeline subconsciously covered her chest with her handbag and said coldly, "Let go."

However, Rose did not listen and kept crying. "Miss Vera, if you have to blame someone, blame me. It was all my own idea. I hired the four hoodlums to kidnap you! Meredith wanted to stop me and that's why

she went to the waste paper factory. I'm the one who harmed you and also Meredith. If you want to blame someone, please blame me!"

While Rose was crying, she gave Madeline's dress a vehement tug. With a swish, Rose tore down Madeline's skirt.

Jeremy took off his suit jacket with lightning speed and put it over Madeline's body.

His cold, dark eyes pierced through Rose. "Did you not hear her when she told you to let go? Get lost."

Jeremy kicked Rose's hand away unhappily, and in the next second, he hugged Madeline in front of everyone.

Meredith watched this scene in shock, unable to believe that Jeremy was treating Vera like this.
