Chapter 777

Author: Summer Blossom
"Mom, why did you invite Sharon? Don't you know that I can't stand her?" Alice complained.

Diana looked at her daughter and said, "How could we not invite her? The Hale family is back in the country, and our two families still have ties. It's only proper to include them."

Hearing that, Alice didn't argue any further, even though she was clearly unhappy. It was her birthday party, but she couldn't do whatever she wanted. Business relationships still had to be considered.

"Just stay at home for the next couple of days. You need to start picking out your dress and matching jewelry for the party," Diana added.

Alice nodded, then sent Macie a message to let her know that she'd be picking her up early the next morning. She also invited Macie to the party, but gave her a heads-up that Sharon would be attending as well.

Thinking that one bad apple shouldn't have to ruin the whole bunch, she genuinely hoped that Macie could attend her birthday party.

    Macie snapped, "My design proposal took an entire month to prepare. I was still working on revisions at home after hours. I went through over a hundred case studies. That's the result of my hard work, yet to you, it's nothing more than something I was handed on a silver platter."You say someone else did it for me? Where's the proof? You've got nothing, yet you speak so freely. I guess slander comes cheap, right?"Although Macie spoke calmly, the anger in her voice was unmistakable. For a moment, no one could refute her."I've said from the beginning that Mr. Atkins and I are just former classmates. As for Mr. Fowler, we're already divorced. I did not use any man to climb my way up."You want to know how I got the elevator pass? When Brightech Studios was first founded, I helped secure its investment. I was granted shareholder status and received dividends. Do you think it's a problem for someone like me to have a private elevator pass?"Next time you want to spread dirty rumors,

    Elias suddenly remembered the document he had signed with Macie.Macie had made it very clear that if Sharon ever targeted her again, Elias was not allowed to cover for her. Due process had to be followed to the letter.He wasn't sure whether to call Macie perceptive or simply say she'd known all along that Sharon would never let her go.Elias furrowed his brow. He would have to answer to the Fowler family and Macie. One party was a long-time ally, while the other had just signed an agreement that listed her terms.He had never been this overwhelmed before.Personal entanglements were always the hardest to manage. If it were just a business matter, he could have dealt with it decisively.…The next day, Macie went to work as usual.Due to the accident yesterday, the bodyguards sent by Yosef were no longer operating in the shadows. They now openly protected her.During work, Macie occasionally glanced at her phone, but there were no messages from Nathan.It had been a full day

    "I really don't know the name of the man behind this incident. I didn't think anyone else would go after Macie again. Rico failed last time and ran off," Sharon cried as she spoke.She wasn't exactly lying. She genuinely didn't know who Rico's accomplice was. The SIM card she used to contact Rico had been a separate one. Unless Elias found it himself, he couldn't nail her with hard evidence.Hearing Sharon finally admit fault, Edmund spoke. "We'll take care of everything. For now, just stay in your room and don't cause any more trouble."Sharon nodded quickly, saying that she understood.Edmund turned to leave, but when he opened the door, he saw Mira standing just outside.Elias looked up, surprised, and asked, "Mom, did you hear everything?"Mira turned to look at Sharon. Her face was blank, which was answer enough.Sharon turned back, saw Mira, and began sobbing harder as she apologized. She threw herself into Mira's arms. Mira gently patted her back and sighed. "You still

    Sharon lowered her head, her tears hitting the floor, but said nothing. Edmund knew that she was basically admitting to it."Why can't you tolerate one woman? She's Edward's ex-wife. They're already divorced. Your mother even personally told Mr. Fowler Senior last weekend that we want Edward to marry you," Edmund said, his voice low and firm. "She poses no threat to you. No influence over your life. Yet, you keep trying to have her killed."How can someone be this cruel? What kind of deep hatred could you possibly have against Macie?"Sharon stayed silent. All she could do was cry. There was nothing else left to cover herself with. She believed that Macie had to die. If Macie didn't, her very existence would threaten Sharon's position.Now that the truth was laid bare, Sharon didn't care how the Hale family scolded her. She was still their daughter. At worst, they'd yell at her and move on.What mattered now was that Elias had already figured it all out. So how could she possibl

    Sharon's heart clenched, but on the surface, she stayed calm and steady as she replied, "It wasn't me. Elias, why would you even think that?"Elias studied her expression. He prided himself on being a good judge of character and was rarely wrong. But somehow, he had misjudged someone from his own family.Sharon had always been good at pretending. And the fact that she was his sister had blinded him more than once."Then the recent attempted abduction of Macie and the use of Devil's Breath, that drug—that wasn't you either?" Elias pressed again."Of course not. That wasn't me," Sharon said firmly.Seeing her still refuse to admit it, Elias reached over to the folder on his desk and pulled out several pages. Holding them upright, he showed them to her. "Then what is this? Care to explain?"Sharon stared at the printed chat logs. The familiar words struck her hard. She could no longer keep up the act. Her expression changed instantly.How was this possible? How did Elias get those
