“Great. Show me your bank QR, Isabel said. She scanned the code and transferred thirty thousand with a few taps.
Before the crew left, Isabel leaned in and whispered something to their leader. He nodded knowingly and disappeared with his team.

“His career is over. Imagine the payout!”
“I think he’s bring framed! As fans, we need to back him up!”
“Yeah, there’s no way he’d do that with his sister. I don’t buy it?
The internet was divided one side mocked Ethan for the scandal, while diehard fans defended him, claiming he was set up.
At the Clydes home, Ethan was in shambles.
He had just told his parents, Rosy and Caius, about the situation when the news broke.
Rosy tapped Ethan and Amelia, shaking with fury.
“You two are a disgrace! You’re siblings! How could you…?

Amelia dropped to her knees, sobbing. “Mom, it wasn’t us! kabel set us up! She drugged us. It’s all her doing!” ||
“Excly!” Ethan added, panicking. “She’s a manipulative snake. I never thought she’d go this far!”
Rosy was livad, whale Caius roared. “That cursed girl has brought nothing but trouble! We should’ve completely destroyed her back then!”

The police closed the case, declaring it a publicity stunt by Ethan.
With chat logs and payment receipts as evidence, the police thought he was fooling them!
Furious, Ethan almost slammed his phone down
How could there be no footage of her at the restaurant?!“
What Ethan didn’t realize was that Isabel had wiped the security footage before leaving, erasing any trace of herself.
Meanwhile, the evidence left behind sealed his guilt.
Seething. Ethan slammed his fist onto the table. “Isabel, you conniving witch! You’ve won this round, but I’ll destroy you. When I’m back, it’s your life on the line!!
