His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 227

She couldn't understand why Yvette tried to harm her. Have I ever offended Yvette?

On the other hand, Arielle was waiting to see them turning against each other.

She put on a concerned look and said, “Yvette, you can't say that. Shandie and I aren't that close, but I know she isn't that evil. Besides, there's no bad blood between her and Uncle Russell. Why would she harm him? This must be a misunderstanding. You need to give her a chance to explain herself.”

Shandie nodded vehemently.

Yes! I want to explain. I shall reveal Yvette's evil deed!

Yvette gritted her teeth in anger. “Arielle, stay

out of our family's business. There's nothing to explain!”

Russell shook his head. “Arielle's right. She's our relative, so we should give her a chance to explain herself. Edmund, remove the cloth in her mouth so she can talk.”

Before Yvette could stop Edmund, he had already removed the cloth from Shandie's mouth.

Immediately, Shandie yelled out, “Uncle Russell! It was Yvette who set me up! My father locked me up in a monastery, so I knew nothing about your return. Yvette gave me the dress. She set me up and tried to kill you!”

“What did you say?” Russell's question was directed at Shandie, but his furious gaze had landed on Yvette.

Yvette felt like her blood had frozen in her veins.

She took a step back instinctively. “Dad...”

“Don't call me Dad!” Russell declared icily. “Is Shandie telling the truth? Were you the one who prepared the dress?”
