Veronica sneered coldly. "I'm afraid your enemies must have targeted you, and when you couldn't identify the true perpetrator behind the scenes, you made Xavier the scapegoat and sought retribution for what happened at the Elysium Hotel yesterday."
Initially, Matthew intended to come forward and reveal his identity and then come to save Xavier.
But early in the morning, Matthew contacted the staff at One Piece Restaurant and asked them to look into the Caritas Hotel's security footage. They found the entrance and exit videos from the hotel lobby and the videos from the corridor.
The videos happened to show her and Xavier.
In other words, Matthew didn't need to reveal his identity to prove Xavier's innocence.
Since that was the case, they didn't need to go through all the trouble.
"How could this happen?"
"Who was the one who attacked Prince Zac yesterday?"
"I don't know."
"So, Xavier is really innocent."
"Who said he wasn't?"
...
Everyone was whispering to each other at this point.
Only Tiffany clenched her fists and said sarcastically to Veronica, "Veronica, you know that Xavier has a wife, yet you went to find him in the middle of the night. A woman ought to respect herself."
She was trying to sow discord and deliberately provoke Antheena's jealousy toward Veronica as she intended to use Antheena to get rid of Veronica and fulfill her deeply held desire.
Veronica walked slowly in the direction of Tiffany as she slowly raised her gaze and curled her red lips.
With a sharp gaze, she scared Tiffany into taking two steps back. "I'm just speaking the truth. Why are you staring at me like that? Are people not allowed to speak the truth anymore?"
