Chapter 14 In Reid's mansion, the lights were cold and white. There were a bunch of files spread out in front of him, including how she had secretly tried to turn him and Maxine against each other for a long time, and there was also a stack of documents from a private detective. Photos, recordings, and even the testimonies of those "thugs" back then. "Ms. Sutter hired us, said to put on a show, paid enough..." "She told us to pretend we were going to bully her, but she never really meant it..." "She said as long as you believed it, there was extra reward afterwards..." Reid's knuckles turned white, and there was a complicated look in his eyes. From start to finish, it was all Kelsey's own doing. And he just pushed the one he loved deeply into the abyss like that. When Kelsey was "invited" into the office by the bodyguard, she still had a playful smile on her face: "Reid, why were you in such a hurry to find me..." 11 Before she finished speaking, a stack of papers was slammed hard into her face. "Explain." Reid's voice was as cold as ice. Papers were scattered all over the floor, Kelsey glanced down at those photos and bank statements, and her smile froze instantly. "I... I can explain!" She frantically crouched down to pick them up, her fingers shaking, "Someone must have set me up! It must be Maxine, she hates me, so..." "Maxine?" Reid stared hard at the person in front of him, his tone surprisingly calm. He took a recorder out of the drawer and pressed play. "That bitch deserved it! Who told her not to know what's good for her...?" Kelsey's voice echoed in the office, sharp and mean. 0.0% • 06:33 Her face turned pale in an instant. Kelsey forced a smile. She tossed those files aside and slowly walked up to Reid. "Reid... do you be- lieve me? I really didn't do those things..." Facing Reid's cold stare, her breathing got quicker: "You believe me... I loved you so much..." "Love?" Reid asked doubtfully. He reached out and grabbed Kelsey's chin, "You did something like this and still keep saying you love me? Don't you think it's disgusting?" "...So you think you're some kind of good person?" Kelsey suddenly looked up, all the weakness in her eyes gone, replaced by twisted hatred. "Reid, you came to me first! You treated me like a substitute, you made me think you loved me!" She suddenly broke free, pointed at his nose and sneered, "Are you blind? Can't you tell who's real and who's fake? Who are you pretending to be all deep for now? Maxine dumped you a long time ago! She'd rather give up everything and run far away than look at you again!" Reid's pupils suddenly shrank, and his chest felt like it had been hit by a sledgehammer. Kelsey laughed even more sarcastically: "You know what she left before she left? That necklace, you gave it to her, right? You've heard the recording inside too..." "Weren't you the one who hit every single blow yourself?" The air went dead for a few seconds. Reid suddenly laughed. He got up slowly, walked over to Kelsey, and reached out to touch her face-his movements were as gentle as a lover's, but his eyes were cold and scary. "You're right, I was blind." he said softly, "So now, it's time to fix my mistake." Kelsey hadn't reacted yet, the door of the mansion opened again, and two bodyguards walked straight to her and tied her up tightly with rough hemp rope. Kelsey's eyes suddenly went wide, almost knocked over by the force. "Reid! You can't do this to me! I... I can give that money back to you!" Reid took a step back and looked at her with no expression as she got her hands cuffed: "Return it? You thought I cared about that money?" 43.0%. 06:33 Chapter 14 He leaned over to her ear, his voice as soft as a snake flicking its tongue: "I was gonna let you see what it meant to wish you were dead." 288 Vouchers 96.2 % 06:33 Discover our latest featured short drama reel.
