Chapter 43
Angela looked at Kenneth indifferently. Tm curious to see how you plan not to let me off
As her words ended, the room fell into a deep silence, so quiet that even the drop of a pin could be heard.
Feeling the chilling air emanating from Kenneth and fearing he might really harm Angela, Upton quickly stepped forward, advising, “Kenneth, let’s calm down first. We haven’t fully understood what happened between Angela and Debra.”
Henry sneered, “Does the reason even matter? Debra has a fracture, and Angela is unharmed. It’s clear who is right and who is wrong?”
Angela turned to look at Henry and suddenly chuckled.
Henry narrowed his eyes menacingly. “What are you laughing at?!”
Angela responded, I just find it funny how blind Brenda was to have fallen for you and even had secretly been your mistress for two years”
Once she finished speaking, both Henry’s and Kenneth’s expressions turned unsightly grim.
Henry was angry that Angela was exposing his past, while Kenneth seemed to grasp a hidden meaning in her words as if she was not just criticizing Henry but him as well.
As everyone in the room started to look around in confusion and surprise, Debra, who was still in Hen’s arms, spoke up. “Angela, I know that Brenda wasn’t happy when Hen chose to be with me after I came back from abroad. I also understand that you, as her friend, would hate me, but I cannot condone you using such a cruel way to get back at me!”
Angela raised an eyebrow and looked at Debra as she indifferently replied, “You’re overthinking it. Why would Brenda be upset? If she were here. she’d thank you for taking this scumbag away from her. After all, scumbags and cheap women are a perfect matchTM”
“Angela!” Kenneth shouted, his face flushed with intense fury. He knew Angela’s provocation towards Henry and Debra was practically pushing Henry to his breaking point.
“Apologize to Henry and Debra right now Kenneth demanded.
Angela raised an eyebrow and smiled coldly, “Kenneth, I already said I won’t apologize.”
After speaking her piece, she turned and was about to leave.
“Stay right there!” Henry lay Debra back on the bed, stood up, and walked up to / choice is yours!”
Angela. “Apologize or take a fall from the horse like Debra did. The
Kenneth looked at Angela indifferently without saying a word, clearly acknowledging Henry’s request.
Jennifer couldn’t help but feel secretly delighted, thinking, It seems like Angela isn’t that important to Kenneth after all, or else he wouldn’t have let Henry pressure her like this.
Angela looked down and chuckled, not too loud but loud enough for everyone in the room to hear. “Sorry, I choose neither.”
“Angela, you’re forcing my hand Henry exclaimed and reached out to grab Angela, wanting to force her to apologize. However, she had already grabbed his arm before he could touch her.
His vision then darkened, and before he could resist, Angela flipped him over her shoulder, throwing him to the ground,
Henry’s entire body ached terribly, and if it weren’t for the sake of his pride, he would have surely cried out in pain by now.
Everyone except
pt Owen and Kenneth looked on in shock, not expecting Angela to be so skilled.

Kenneth narrowed his eyes and felt even more suspicious, wondering, “When did Angela learn these skills? Was i
Angela looked down at Henry and said deliberately, “I told you you don’t have what it takes to stop me.”
Once she said that, she immediately turned and left while Owen and Upton went to help Henry up on his feet. Henry limped over to Kenneth and said angrily. “Kenneth, you saw it yourself. Angela has gone too far. If you don’t make this right for me and Debra, I won’t let it slider
As Kenneth was about to respond, a staff member from the stable walked in, reporting. “Mr. Hastings, this is the surveillance footage from the time of Ms. Jenkins‘ incident. We copied it immediately after learning about the incident”
Hearing dus, Jennifer’s and Delia’s fares turned pale, and they thought in panic, “Why is there a video! If they see this footage, we’re finished.

What do we do now!!”

The two exchanged glances, and in a moment of quick thinking. Debra said, “Let me see
She thought smugly. Once I have the tablet, I’ll pretend to delete it accidentally and then find an excuse to say I don’t want to watch it anymore. That should cover things up!‘
Just as the staff member was about to hand the tablet to her, Upton suddenly reached out and took it before calmly saying, “Let me handle this. Ms. Jenkins is injured and might find it difficult to use her hands.”
Debra was left speechless, not knowing how to respond.
Jennifer turned to see a glass of water nearby and quietly picked it up, planning to accidentally spill it on the tablet. However, Upton had already noticed her plan and turned to look at her menacingly.
Jennifer, who was already feeling guilty, was startled when she met Upton’s piercing gaze, causing her to drop the glass of water she was holding.
Upton chuckled mysteriously, “Ms. Lewis, why is your hand shaking”
Jennifer quickly hid her hands behind her back, trying to appear calm, replying, “No, it’s nothing. Just that the water was a bit hot, and I didn’t hold it properly”
“You have to be more careful next time. Handling things that are too hot to handle would only hurt yourself,” Upton advised with a smirk.
Upon hearing and understanding the underlying message in his words, Jennifer’s gaze turned cold, and she fell silent.
Upton quickly watched the surveillance footage at 10 times the speed and then handed the tablet to Kenneth. Upton’s expression grew much grimmer as he said, “Kenneth, take a look for yourself
After saying that, Upton looked at Henry and sneered, “Henry, your girlfriend really is something else. Now, I finally understand what it means to
turn the tables,”
Henry frowned, but before he could respond, Upton had already walked away.
The moment Upton finished watching the footage. Debra’s face had turned deathly pale, realizing that she couldn’t hide the truth of the incident
anymore.
Once Kenneth finished watching the surveillance footage, his expression turned as cold as ice.
He was livid and felt utterly guilty. As Kenneth recalled how he had pressured Angela to apologize just now, he unconsciously tightened his grip on the tablet, causing his fingertips to pale.
Afterward, Kenneth angrily threw the tablet at Debra, causing her to scream in fright. Although she had managed to dodge it, her face still turned as pale as a ghost
Henry was shocked, realizing that if Kenneth’s and Upton’s attitudes had changed so drastically, it was very likely Debra was not as innocent as appeared,
“Henry, I told you before in the rest area to keep Debra in check. If you can’t do that, I don’t mind doing it for you,” Kenneth warned.

After he left, Henry’s gaze turned icy as he glared at Debra. “What has really happened back then? Debra, I’m giving you one last chance to tell the truth. If you lie, we’re done!”
Kenneth hurried to the hotel after learning from the staff that Angela had returned there. Upon entering the room, he sar Angela packing her

“I didn’t come to make you apologize. I’ve seen the surveillance footage, Kenneth sighed, his voice was raspy. He felt conflicted, not knowing how to make amends for his earlier behavior.

Angela was growing impatient and was about to respond when Beatrice’s angry voice came from outside the door.
“Why does it matter to you where Angie is going?!”
Kenneth turned around to see Beatrice storming into the room, looking very angry.
“Grandma, can yo
can you please not make things worse?” he pleaded.
Kenneth mused, “Angela is already upset. If I don’t resolve this now, she will treat me even colder after this!
Beatrice sneered, “Now I understand why Angie wants to divorce you. With a man like you, the sooner she’s free, the better! I fully support Angie’s decision to divorce you!”
