Chapter 1921
Le’s heart raced as she heard Balfour’s demand to send her to the police. “Mr. Howard… please, no!
I’m innocent… Ms. Dunhill is framing me…”
Mr. Balfour snorted dismissively, “And why would she frame you? If you’re not guilty, why rush back to
clean the pot?”
Tears welled up in Le’s eyes, but she was at a loss for words, “I just…”
Running out of patience, Balfourmanded, “Quinton, take her away!”
“Yes, Mr. Howard!” Quinton stepped forward, gripping Le tightly, preparing to escort her out…
Realizing she couldn’t deceive them any longer, Le clenched her teeth, ring at Ivy.

“Ivy, you’re so damn lucky! The young master was almost convinced by me, and yet you still managed
to trap me like this. What a schemer you are!”
As she spoke, her emotions surged, and tears streamed down her face, “You’re a wicked woman, a
wicked woman! You’re not worthy of my Mr. Howard!”
Desperate, Le reached out to w at Ivy.
Before Ivy could react, a strong hand pulled her away, avoiding Le’s grasp.
Regaining herposure, Ivy turned to see Balfour, her heart skipping a beat.
Thank goodness he was there in time to pull her back, saving her from Le’s wrath.
“Thank you,” Ivy murmured, turning her gaze back to Le.
Refusing to leave with Quinton, Le looked at Balfour, crying incessantly, “Mr. Howard, I’ve worked
here for so many years without a single mistake! Can you give me another chance? Please don’t send
me to the police, I’ll never do it again!”
Ivy turned to Balfour, worried that he might
let Le off the hook out of sentimentality.
“Quinton, see to it properly, and make sure this kind of person never sets foot in Howard’s family
again!”
Without uttering a single word to Le or even sparing her a nce, Balfour turned away and walked
out of the kitchen.
“Yes, Mr. Howard!” Quinton acknowledged, then proceeded to pull Le away.
Le was truly frightened now, pleading non-stop, “Quinton, I’ve realized my mistake, please don’t take
me to the police.”
Quinton lifted Le off the ground, “Ms. Dunhill, I’ll take her away now.”
Ivy nodded.
Soon after, the sound of police sirens filled the air.
Ivy peered out the window, watching as the police took Le away. Despite her struggles, there was no
escaping the consequences.
This was the Howard family’s way of justice, indeed fair and impartial.
Turning around, Ivy noticed Balfour standing behind her. He asked, “You feel sorry for her?”
“Not at all,” Ivy shook her head firmly, “She made her bed, now she has to lie in it.”
Mr. Balfour’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Ivy, you’re smarter than I thought.”
Ivy pursed her lips, “If I hadn’t tricked her, I wouldn’t have been able to prove my innocence.”
