Mason was losing control due to his anger. He glowered at Valeria and shouted, "It was you! You are the one who had betrayed me first, and all I can do was just to pay you back, right?"
"Betrayed you?" Valeria looked at Ashley indifferently, who was standing aside gloatingly.
Ashley admitted that she had slandered Valeria yesterday. And that was why Mason thought Valeria had betrayed him.
Mason knew Valeria well. But now he chose to trust Ashley and believed that Valeria had betrayed him.
At first, Valeria was disheartened and did not want to quarrel with them. However, Mason had gone too far and she had to fight back.
So she looked at Mason ruthlessly and questioned, "Did you see it personally or just hear it from others?"
"Well, I can show you evidence!" Mason answered immediately.
"Oh, really? Then just show me!"
Mason couldn't believe that she dared ask him for evidence. He looked at Ashley, "Ashley, show her!"
Ashley was only trying to humiliate Valeria. She had never expected that things turned out like that.
She counterfeited the evidence and tried to sow discord between Mason and Valeria. If they took it seriously and investigated deeply, they would find out it was a lie.
Thinking about this, Ashley became a little panicked, "Hmm... Everyone's looking at us, and I'm afraid it'll be bad for Valeria if others find out."
"You don't have to worry about that. Just show me the evidence," Valeria sneered.
"Forget about it and just show her! I'm eager to hear her explanation!"
Mason growled. He was irritated by Valeria's response.
However, Ashley was still unable to take out the evidence. She said, "I've destroyed it in order to preserve her reputation."
