Chapter 109 Caught in the Act
Lily still had the VIP card Nancy gave her, which granted a 10 percent discount at all Aurelia stores.
Her relationship with the Luke family ran deep.
She'd also mentioned many times that her precious daughter had saved Nancy's only nephew, Simon, and was
cherished by John himself. Who would dare cross her?
Wendy was sure no one would dare to check the surveillance footage unless she allowed it.
Her eyes briefly flickered with a dark glint before she continued, “We all saw it just now. Lily snapped because
she couldn't afford the dress. She destroyed it out of jealousy!”
Diana's eyes shifted slightly.
Only a seasoned veteran could be a manager at a luxury boutique like this, and in that instant, she understood
what Wendy was doing.
Chances are, it isn’t Lily who ruined the dress-it is Wendy.
Wendy is forcingto pick a side.
Everyone knew Elsa wasn’t just adored by Mr. Simon; she was also Mr. John's favorite. Sure, Lily had dated John,
but once Elsa returned, he had kicked her out without hesitation. How could Lily ever compete with Elsa?
Ms. Nancy valued Elsa for saving Simon's life, and she had long-standing ties with Wendy. If | angered them, my
job would be on the line.
Her mind made up, Diana discreetly tugged on the sleeve of a staff member beside her. The staffer immediately
caught on.
“Ms. Diana, the security system’s been down. | meant to tell you earlier. But | saw it with my own eyes. Lily

“Shere!” Another staffer chimed in, eager to impress Elsa. “She glanced at the price tag, muttered
something, and just started cutting. If she can’t afford our clothes, maybe she should shop at flea markets
instead. Destroying our merchandise is just pathetic. She’s a broke hater who can’t accept reality. It's
disgusting.”
More employees piled on, claiming they witnessed Lily damaging the gown.
If Lily refused to pay, they were willing to testify at the police station.
Lily almost laughed.
Power and status really did blind people, making them toss aside basic decency.
It was obvious Wendy had ruined the dress herself, framingin the process. And now all these people were
shamelessly flipping the truth just to get in Wendy and Elsa’s good graces, like they couldn’t wait to paintas
spsychotic villain.
Too bad for them, I'm no helpless victim. I'm a blade, ready to cut deep the moment I get the chance.

Chapter 109 Caught in the Act
Smirking coldly, Lily tightened her grip on her phone, ready to speak, when Nancy walked through the
door.
She immediately noticed the tense crowd surrounding Lily, and her eyes narrowed.
“What's going on here?”
“Nancy, Lily is completely shameless!” Wendy rushed forward, desperate to spin the story her way.
“She tried on that dress, saw the price, and got jealous because she couldn't afford it. Then she snuck back and
cut it up! It’s a malicious destruction of property. Nancy, she cto your store just to stir trouble. She clearly
doesn’t respect you. You need to make her pay!”
Nancy looked at Wendy with a complicated expression, then the corner of her lips lifted ever so slightly in a
mocking smile.
Yes, we had gone to school together. But | never liked Wendy back then.
My only impression of Wendy had been that she was way too fond of married men.
| invited Wendy and Elsa over for dinner at the Luke estate after discovering Elsa was the girl Simon had been
looking for. | gave them gifts too.
But it was never about admiring their character. | simply appreciated what Elsa had done for my nephew during
those darkest days.
Once | found out Elsa had inserted herself into John and Lily’s relationship, | had cut off contact.
Grateful or not, | couldn’t bring myself to like a homewrecker.
And now, Wendy and her daughter are bullying my daughter-in-law?
| did love my nephew, but blood or not, my own daughter-in-law mattered more.
Even for Simon's sake, | couldn't let this slide.
Instead of responding to Wendy, she turned to Diana with a faint, chilly smile.
