    As expected, Ivan gave Caroline a look of appreciation after hearing her words.


    Upon seeing this, Avery angrily gripped the flesh of her thigh, wishing to rip the generosity from


    Caroline’s expression.


    This ordeal hade to an end. The video continued to y, and soon they saw the moment when


    Caroline brushed past Avery.


    Charles slowed down the video, and everyone held their breath.


    In this video, Caroline didn’t reach into Avery’s bag at all.


    Lia was dumbfounded by what she saw. “What’s going on? Did you tamper with the footage?”


    Caroline smirked. “You overestimate me, Mrs. Mendeley. I got this video from the restaurant that night,


    and I didn’t do anything with it. You can check it out if you don’t believe me.”


    Kirk caressed Caroline’s backnguidly, saying yfully, “I think the truth is clear. Carrie didn’t do


    anything.”


    Avery was about to fall apart.


    She’d nned to use the surveince footage to frame Caroline for being a thief and a vicious woman.


    Even if Kirk could tolerate Caroline, Ivan would never agree to this marriage.


    But she’d never expected Caroline to have the original surveince footage.


    Avery took a deep breath, quickly calming herself down. She said, “That’s right. Caroline really didn’t


    do this. It might be like what you said, Ivan. Someone is trying to cause trouble between our two


    families.”


    Then, she looked at Caroline and said sincerely, “I’m sorry, Carrie.”

    Caroline looked Avery right in the eye and smiled lightly.


    Avery felt a chill up her spine.


    The rapid change in the situation caught Lia off guard. She murmured, “Who else could it be if not


    you?”


    “Mom. Avery hurriedly grabbed Lia. “We’ll leave this matter at that. L–let’s go home”


    N


    Lia approached Kirk and said, “Kirk, you have to keep investigating.”


    Avery even changed her tone and hurriedly pulled Lia away. “Mom, stop disturbing Kirk. We’re going


    home!”


    “Wait!” Caroline suddenly said.


    The mother and daughter stopped tugging at each other and looked over at Caroline.


    “Leaving so soon, Ms. Mendeley?”


    Avery clenched her fists, anticipating what Caroline was going to say.


    Lia still couldn’t ept that Caroline wasn’t behind this. She blurted out, “Avery has already


    apologized. What more do you want?”


    Caroline smiled lightheartedly. “You gave me a dreadful scolding just now, Mrs. Mendeley. Now that the


    truth hase to light, shouldn’t you say something to me?”


    Lia’s expression shifted. “What do you mean? Do you want an elder like me to apologize to you?”


    Caroline looked past Lia at Avery. Since Avery used her mother to fight her battles, she had to pay the


    price.


    Feeling Caroline’s eyes on her, Avery clenched her fists. She tried to persuade her mother, “Mom, we


    misunderstood Caroline, so you should apologize to her!”


    “No way!” Lia lost herposure and yelled, “If someone like me apologizes to a young woman like


    her, we’ll be aughing stock! Besides, our suspicions were reasonable. You can’t me us for


    this.


    Caroline smiled yfully. She didn’t look at Lia at all. Instead, she was looking at Avery


    Digging her nails into her palm, Avery red at Caroline without realizing it


    After a while, she got down on her knees, gritting her teeth “Fine, I’ll apologize on my mother’s behalf.


    Are you happy now?”
