Chapter 1348 The me Game
Jade, who had remained silent for a while, suddenly erupted with fury. "What do you mean by it being a
joint n between our families? You portrayed the cocktail party as a chance for the two children to get
to know each other, but I never expected you to stoop so low—putting drugs in the drink, involving the
paparazzi to takepromising photos, and orchestrating a viral hot search across the Inte. Did
you think using such despicable methods would force Nathan to break up with his girlfriend? Who gave
you permission for all this?"
Finley frowned. "Mrs. Baker—"
Jade mercilessly interrupted him, "Please address me as Madam Nn!"
Anger visibly surfaced on Finley''s face. While he hesitated to openly provoke Eugene, he couldn''t bear
to tolerate Jade and Ace any longer. A mocking smile curved his lips as heshed out, "If this is how
you both y the game, it''s truly shameless. What''s the matter? Is the Baker Enterprise not thriving
anymore? Resorting to such unscrupulous tactics, are you? Don''t you realize that your very husband,
Ace Baker, is aware of all this? Do you both n to make us all suffer through your divorce? Who''s
more despicable here?"
Eugene rubbed his temples to ease the throbbing pain. As an outsider, he deeply regretted getting
involved in this family drama. This incessant quarrel is giving me a splitting headache. I should just stay
at home and cuddle with my wife. Why did Ie here seeking trouble?
He finally couldn''t take it any longer. Raising his voice, he interjected, "Enough! Are you all seriously
arguing over such embarrassing matters? Must I call the police to resolve this for you?"
After his stern intervention, the room fell silent once again.
Eugene surveyed the room, finally locking his cold gaze with Finley''s. His words cut through the air like
ice. "Not only do I have surveince footage of Miss Snow drugging the drink, but we also found drug
traces in Nathan''s blood sample. The paparazzi who took the photos have confessed to acting under
your orders, and the purchase of the viral hot search can be traced back to you. The police won''t
concern themselves with perceived injustices; they rely solely on evidence. If Nathan insists on holding
you and Miss Snow ountable, both of you will face no less than three years in prison!"

After a brief pause, he continued, "I don''t care whose fault it is, but you''ve disrupted my peaceful life.
Nathan and his girlfriend can''t live without worries, and my wife has to bear the burden of their troubles.
I can''t stand seeing her that way. You have two choices here—either issue a public apology to Nathan
on the Inte, or I hand over this evidence to the police. If I don''t see the public apology before
10.00AM tomorrow, the evidence will undoubtedly be in the hands of the police!"
After making his point, Eugene picked up his phone from the table and prepared to leave.
Finley''s legs weakened, and he copsed onto the couch.
His wife hurriedly rushed to his side andforted him, "Finley, please calm down. Please…"
Without concerning herself about her own image, Lexie anxiously stood up and hastily chased after
Eugene. "President Nn!"
Tears streamed down her face as she barely managed to utter his name. The disastrous turn of events
with Eugene had caught herpletely off guard. It began with hope and aspiration but now seemed
to have led to utter despair. He''s always been so kind and caring toward his wife. Why is he being so
cruel to us?
Struggling to contain her emotions, Lexie sobbed and pleaded, "President Nn, we are truly innocent
in this matter. The union between our families and the events ofst night were all discussed and
agreed upon by my father and Mr. Baker. No one coerced anyone. It was intended for the sake of
better cooperation. You can''t treat us like this. If we''re forced to issue a public apology, how can we
ever face anyone in the future?!"
Eugene halted his footsteps and looked at her tear-stained face with irritation. "This is your problem.
You need to understand one thing—it was Ace who led you to this point. Whether you were
manipted by him or colluded with him, it''s your misfortune. If you feel wronged, settle the score with
Ace. It has nothing to do with Nathan. Do you understand?" he asserted firmly.
As he concluded his statement, the members of the Snow Family directed their hostile gazes toward
Ace. Their eyes bore such intensity that it seemed like they would devour him alive.
Terrified, Ace stumbled backward and quickly intercepted Eugene. "E-Eugene, you can''t treat me like
this! After all, I''ve been your brother-inw for over twenty years!" he stammered.
Eugene''s face hardened with ruthlessness as he gripped Ace''s cor. "If it hadn''t been for the sake of
my sister, I would have torn you apart long ago!"
