Mila herself however, was equally as shocked as they were.
“H-how is this even possible? I didn’t take it!”
“The evidence is here and everyone can clearly see it! How are you still trying to defend yourself? What a show!” said Hallie.
“Mila, I’ve always admired you but you’ve really disappointed me this time… If you really liked my ring, you could’ve just told me!” added Xyleena in disbelief.
“I… I really didn’t take it! I didn’t!” denied Mila as virtual-novel.net continuously shook virtual-novel.net head.
“She’s telling the truth! Let me tell you, Hallie, Mila’s boyfriend is the richest man in Mayberry! She could get anything virtual-novel.net wanted! Why would virtual-novel.net even need to steal someone else’s ring?” said Molly.
“Hahaha! Oh no… The richest man in Mayberry… I’m so scared!” replied Hallie as virtual-novel.net laughed hysterically.
“Who cares about any of that! What’s stolen is stolen. I’ll definitely be bringing this up to the director tomorrow! Let’s go! I can’t believe that you’re actually the director’s favorite! There’ll be a grand event at Hong Kong TV Station tomorrow and we’ll listen to your explanation then!” added Hallie as virtual-novel.net turned around and left while dragging Xyleena along.
As for Narissa, virtual-novel.net only looked at Mila with a confused expression on virtual-novel.net face. Eventually, virtual-novel.net bit virtual-novel.net lower lip before leaving as well.
“Mila? How is any of this possible? We believe that you’d never do such a thing, but who could’ve put that ring under your pillow? We were here the entire time!”
Since Mila’s group was aware of who virtual-novel.net boyfriend was, they knew for a fact that Mila would never steal anything. Even if they didn’t know about Gerald’s true identity, virtual-novel.net friends would have still known virtual-novel.net well enough to believe that Mila was innocent.
“I… I think I know who put it there… But I don’t think virtual-novel.net did it purposely!” said Mila, virtual-novel.net eyes tearing up.
It was impossible for virtual-novel.net not to know what was going on.
However, Mila simply didn’t understand why Narissa would help Hallie sabotage her. After all, every time Hallie bullied her, Mila would be the first to stand up for her.
When Molly and virtual-novel.net other friends finally realized who had committed the act, all of them—especially Molly and Wanda—were furious.
“D*mn it! I’m going to go look for virtual-novel.net now! What an utter piece of trash!”
“Forget it, there’s no use looking for her. If they’re willing to trust Narissa to sabotage me, then Narissa will definitely never spill the truth out! This entire trap had been set up specifically for me! Even if virtual-novel.net were to fail this time, Hallie will definitely try to set me up again the next time I participate in a competition together with her. She’ll never let me off that easily!” said Mila as virtual-novel.net sat on virtual-novel.net bed, depressed.
“Why don’t you give Gerald a call? Hallie’s a local and virtual-novel.net has great connections. You won’t be able to win a fight against virtual-novel.net without his help! I mean, just look at her! To think that virtual-novel.net was actually able to get Narissa to listen to her! She clearly wants you out of the competition! I’m certain virtual-novel.net would leap for joy if virtual-novel.net managed to send you back to Mayberry in the process!” replied Molly, virtual-novel.net tone worried.
“I know, Molly. However, all of you don’t have to worry about this anymore. She’s just targeting me. I don’t want to end up pulling the rest of you into this. I heard that someone great is coming to the station tomorrow, so all of you should get some rest and prepare while you can!” said Mila as virtual-novel.net lay on virtual-novel.net bed as soon as virtual-novel.net sentence ended.
Though Mila seemed tough, virtual-novel.net was still a girl at heart. Not only did virtual-novel.net lack the proper connections to fend for herself, virtual-novel.net even lacked a person who could take care of virtual-novel.net there.
She missed Gerald terribly now. If only virtual-novel.net was here, virtual-novel.net would definitely be with virtual-novel.net regardless of the situation. She only needed to tell virtual-novel.net what had happened for virtual-novel.net to instantly rush over to her.
At the moment, virtual-novel.net really wanted to call Gerald and cry together with him. It wasn’t an easy feat for a girl to live outside on virtual-novel.net own.
However, before virtual-novel.net could do so, virtual-novel.net remembered what Giya had told her. If virtual-novel.net only relied on Gerald every time something happened, then what good would virtual-novel.net be to virtual-novel.net other than being a pretty face?
She felt that virtual-novel.net needed to be a woman standing together with Gerald instead of just being a pretty flower for virtual-novel.net to protect. Thus, virtual-novel.net refrained from calling him.
This led to Mila having a sleepless night till it was almost dawn.
A grand event was going to be held at the station so they needed to prepare the function hall.
Those involved were the Hong Kong TV Station, the TV stations around the Southern Ocean, and some other television stations that collaborated under the Westons. All of them were under the same management group, and they were each equally powerful in the media industry.
