Chapter 526


    Summer seized the opportunity and pulled Sylvia into her embrace. "I''m sorry. Sylvia, I''m really sorry. I


    was wrong. I know I was wrong. I know I''ve let you down."


    They were locked in an embrace as Sylvia cried her heart out. It was only after some time had passed


    that Sylvia broke off the embrace and opened the door to leave the room.


    In an instant, Summer was petrified. In a panic, she could only call out, "Sylvia—"


    However, Sylvia did not turn back and left the room.


    Summer did not have the courage to chase after her, and could only stare vacantly at the closed door.


    She couldn''t ept the decision of having to apologize to Olivia, or for Sylvia to tell the others the truth.


    Back on set, Olivia had already recovered the deleted surveince footage with North''s help. Her


    suspicion turned out to be true when she briefly went through the footage and discovered Summer had


    added thexatives to the drinks. Just as she was about to present the footage to Director Norris, she


    saw Sylvia walking toward her. With a hint of urgency, Sylvia called out to Olivia. "Miss Maxwell, I… I


    have something to say!"


    Olivia and Jewel made eye contact with one another before Olivia replied to Sylvia, "What is it? Tell


    me!"


    Sylvia''s hands were locked together restlessly. "Miss Maxwell, can we go somewhere private for this?"


    Raising her eyebrows, Oliviaplied. "Alright. Let''s go!"


    Jewel followed Olivia as she was worried about Olivia. Sylvia led them down to a passage until the very


    end.


    Olivia said, "Tell me what''s on your mind now!"


    Should she be willing to disclose the truth, it proves that she still knows the difference between right


    and wrong!


    However, Sylvia remained quiet and kneeled on her knees instead. "Miss Maxwell, Miss Fenton, I''m


    sorry. Please forgive me. I was the one that added thexative in the drinks."


    Olivia frowned in response. It did not ur to her that Sylvia would pull them aside to somewhere


    private just to admit that it was her that did it!


    She truly thought that Sylvia was going to identify Summer as the culprit!


    She was slightly disappointed. Loyalty and affection for another were good values to have, but for her


    to be unable to distinguish between right and wrong was over the line. This was just a fool''s loyalty. But


    she considered the possibility that Summer might have made a deal with Sylvia for Sylvia toe


    forward as the culprit.


    "What kind of deal did you make with Summer?"


    Sylvia froze and quickly answered, "I didn''t make any deals with Summer!"

    Olivia cast a disapproving look at Sylvia. "If you didn''t make any deal with Summer, why on earth would


    you admit that you are the culprit instead?"


    Sylvia finally understood Olivia''s implication. "T-That has nothing to do with Summer. I-I was the one


    that added thexatives!"


    "Do I look so gullible to you?" Olivia sneered. "Do you know why Jewel and I did not drink the milk teas


    you gave us?"


    After pondering on Olivia''s question for a while, she resigned herself to the answer she came to.


    "Because you don''t trust me!"


    Olivia exined, "It wasn''t you that I don''t trust; it was Summer. If you had not told us that it was


    Summer who had asked you to give it to us, then we might have already drunk the drinks you gave us.


    In an unfamiliar ce, you must possess the ability to refrain from hurting others, yet be on guard


    against those trying to harm you. The reason I let my guard down with you is that I believed that you


    were someone with morals. I thought that you were just trying to survive in this industry by staying


    close to Summer, which was why you had endured all the grievances. However, right now you''ve


    turned my understanding of you on its head. Deliberate distortion of the truth and theck of a moral


    compass. Is this a case of he who stays near vermillion gets stained red, and he who stays near ink


    gets stained ck?"


    Olivia''s tone wasced with hints of mockery and became slightly provocative. As Sylvia''s face


    instantly grew as red as a tomato, she immediately prostrated before Olivia.


    "I''m really sorry, Miss Maxwell. I won''t me you for what you have to say about me. I understand what


    it''s like to be falsely used and to be deeply disappointed. But please, don''t investigate this incident


    any further and just think of me as the culprit. I''ll ept whatever punishment, whether it''s to be


    handed over to the authorities or to pay the medical bills!"


    Olivia''s frown turned deeper. She couldn''t help but raise her voice several pitches higher. "Do you know


    what you''re saying right now? How old do you think you are? Your life is ruined if you are sentenced to


    prison for this!"
