Chapter 312


    Chapter 312 “Oh, dear–I did step on you! So sorry about that. “Still, my dear cousin, didn’t I tell you


    before to not touch Catelyn?”


    Edwin’s tone shifted at that point. His usual nonchnt self had vanished, and his eyes were sharp as


    des. “Have you forgotten about that?” L lost herposure, and her expression shifted as tears


    welled up in her eyes. “I…I’m sorry, Edwin. Please, just let go of my hand!”

    Edwin’s expression was unforgiving. Not only did he not remove his feet, but he even pressed down on


    her hand even more harshly. “You’re hurt, huh?”


    L sobbed as she nodded aggressively, her eyes red with tears.


    “Now, you’ll remember that no matter how lowly someone is to you, you can’t just do whatever you want


    with them,” enunciated Edwin as he eventually removed his feet from her hand.


    With a face scrunched in agony, L pulled her hand back without even picking her phone up. The back


    of her hand was imprinted with Edwin’s shoe print, creased with deep and shallow lines. There were


    even scratch marks as her hand looked visibly swollen and red.


    L was enraged. She hated how everyone was on Catelyn’s side!


    At that moment, Joanne picked up L’s phone on the floor and gave it to Catelyn, who yed the


    recorded audio with the click of a button.


    It was a conversation between all three women.


    From the audio alone, it sounded like Catelyn and Joanne were the viins, while L was the one


    spouting apologies. Moreover, Joanne’sst sentence about slicing her face up truly made L look like


    the victim in their argument.


    It was obvious that L came prepared.


    Catelyn eventually concluded that L did this so she could have Granny Atherton listen, all so that L


    would appear to be a saint among them.


    L listened to the audio, and her face was pale as a sheet of paper.


    She saw how kindly Granny Atherton was to Catelyn the day before, and even though she had no idea


    why she did that, she was not going to risk letting Catelyn have the upper hand again.


    This was why she wanted to show how arrogant Catelyn could be so that Granny Atherton would dislike


    her!


    “I’m such a klutz… I didn’t even know when it started recording!” L tried her best to hide the guilt in


    her eyes and pretended to be innocent. “I’ll switch it off right now. I really have no bad intentions.”


    The veins on Cedrick’s forehead had be visible with his evident disgust toward L.


    Did she think everyone here was stupid?

    “You still don’t get it, do you?” Cedrick’s re was ruthless. “It seems that the punishment the Athertons


    gave you wasn’t enough, thus enabling you to make more mistakes!”


    L was stunned by his cold rage.


    At that moment, someone else pushed the door open from outside.


    It was none other than Granny Atherton herself. Granny Atherton walked in with the help of Kelly, and


    following closely behind were two tall, strong bodyguards.


    L felt relieved as if she had just found her savior. She ran over to her and sobbed,” Grandma, thank


    god you’re here! “Catelyn insisted that I harmed her, but I’m innocent!”


    L’s eyes brimmed with tears. Her hair was messy, and the back of her hand was covered in fresh


    wounds. She was, to put it simply, in shambles.


    Catelyn was stunned for a brief moment as she stared at Granny Atherton. ‘Isn’t she the olddy from


    Chandier Jewelry shop the other day?’
