Chapter 112 No Way Out
“I think it was Wendy who ruined that dress. Diana and the others just helped her smear Lily!
“Disgusting. Wendy used such filthy tricks to fra young girl!”
“I... 1 didn’t frLily.”
Wendy prided herself on her reputation.
Now, being openly ridiculed by these wealthy ladies in the store felt like having her dignity ripped to shreds. She
was so humiliated she could barely stand.
As the insults piled on, her knees buckled. Elsa caught her just in tto keep her from collapsing in front of
everyone.
“You didn’t frLily?”
Nancy let out a cold laugh, clearly not buying her pathetic excuse.
Rather than wasting words, she preferred irrefutable evidence to slap pretentious scum in the face. She turned
sharply toward Manager He and the staff who had twisted the truth.
“You're all fired.”
Then she shifted her gaze to the two employees who had spoken up for Lily earlier.
“I don’t believe the store’s surveillance system suddenly malfunctioned. You two, go retrieve the footage. | want
certain shameless liars, thick-skinned as pavement, to be left speechless.”
The two justice-minded employees, now aware that Lily was the daughter-in-law of their boss, were even more
determined to clear her name. They hurried off to pull the surveillance video.
“Boss, | swear | didn’t mean to. Please don't fire me, I—"
“Get out!”
Diana's eyes welled with tears, her expression seemingly helpless and sincere.
But Nancy wouldn't keep someone like her.
If Diana could help Wendy twist the truth and slander Lily, she could just as easily use those tactics to harm
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtother customers.
That could not be tolerated.
“If you still want a future in Capital City, stay out of my sight.”
Hearing this, Diana and the others trembled violently.
The perks at Aurelia were unmatched.

Chapter 112 No Way Out
They didn’t want to lose such a good job.
But Nancy made her stance crystal clear: if they were smart, they'd simply lose their position at Aurelia. If they
weren't, she'd make sure they couldn't survive in the industry.
Afraid of retaliation from the Luke family, they didn’t dare linger. They left the store with faces full of disgrace
and resentment.
But their hatred wasn’t directed at Nancy-it fell squarely on Elsa and her mother.
That's just human nature. People always turn their resentment toward the weaker party.
Nancy was too powerful to blame. But Elsa and her mother-who had caused them to lose everything- were now
their targets of hatred.
Even as she left, Wendy was still claiming that Lily was two-faced, that she couldn't stand seeing Nancy doing
well, and that she had destroyed the dress on purpose.
Nancy treated her words like the barking of a dog and didn’t dignify them with a response.
Soon, the two employees returned with the footage and played it for everyone to see.
The video clearly showed that when Lily put the dress back on the rack, it was completely intact.
But once she turned to leave, Wendy, who had been standing nearby, quickly pulled a pair of scissors from her
bag.
Her face twisted with malice, she hacked at the 3.98 million dollars designer gown like a madwoman, utterly
destroying it.
The footage was damning-crystal clear and impossible to refute. It utterly crushed Wendy.
No matter how smooth her tongue usually was, she had no words this time.
She stood there trembling in shwhen Nancy's icy voice rang out again.
“Now, are you still going to claim my daughter-in-law deliberately vandalized our store’s merchandise?”
Before Wendy could answer, Nancy continued sharply:
“Destroying a dress in my store and
blaming it on my daughter-in-law.

Simon and John often gave Elsa expensive gifts, but they rarely sent her direct money,
+5 Free Coins
The Quinn family was an empty shell-Wendy had no way of pulling out nearly four million dollars on the spot.
Even if she could, she couldn't bear to spend that much at once.
So she decided to play the emotional card, hoping Nancy would let it go.
After all, the Luke family was filthy
rich. Nancy had shares in the Sym
Corporation, andranheown empire.

Swallowing her irritation, she spoke hoarsely, “We were college classmates. We've stayed in touch all these
years-we have such a deep bond.”
“Elsa even saved Simon's life... With everything we've been through, can’t you-”
“Elsa saving Simon is Simon's business. If he wants to repay that favor, he can do it himself. What does that
have to do with me?”
