CHAPTER 48
The audio was being played over and over again, with Chloe’s voice saying:
“I want you to accuse Alpha Lance of raping you..and nobody will take his pack seriously…
Most people recognized Chloe’s voice.
They exchanged perplexed looks with each other with the same question in their heart:
Why was Chloe playing an audio of herself?
And who was she talking to in this audio?
Chloe widened her eyes in fear and shock, her lips twitching slightly.
Then she cried out abruptly, “No! Wait a second! This isn’t the footage that I wanted to play! Wrong footage! Somebody pauses it right now!”
Aurora took out a remote from her pocket and pressed a button, pausing the audio.
“Do you recognize your own voice, Chloe?” Aurora smiled.
Seeing the remote in Aurora’s hand, Chloe gritted out in anger and disbelief, “You-It was you! You arranged to have my footage swapped!”
She grabbed Damien’s hand hastily, shaking it, “Damien, help me! Ask Aurora to delete her audio! And play mine instead!”
Yet Aurora spoke up before Damien did, “Wait a second. Let’s talk about this audio first. Do you remember whom you were talking to in the audio?”
Chloe shivered. Then she gradually turned to Jenny, who had hit behind Rivena’s back already.
“YOU BITCH!”
Chloe pointed a finger at Jenny and yelled, “-You betrayed me
Jenny didn’t even dare to look up at Chloe.
But she finally understood Aurora’s plan by this point.
The ear bug Aurora gave her the other day recorded all of their conversation. Aurora knew that Chloe would take this party as a chance to publicly accuse Lance of raping. So Aurora waited Chloe to attack them first and then lured Chloe to set the penalty herself.
Now everyone in the venue had heard what Chloe just said a moment ago about willing to be

What a brilliant trick!

“No! I swear! It is not slandering-
Chloe cried in panic.

The crowd’s attitude started to swing again
Gamma Jeff from Black Water Pack stepped not from the crowd and said to Aurora Gamma Aurore, you can’t prove anything with this short aurbo. Because Miss Chlor didn’t ack her maid to fately accuse Alpha Lance of anything The simply asked her maid to speak out the truth. She might be using her maid to get bark at you, but that is an ethical problem, not a legal one.”
Many people nodded in agreement
Aurora replied to Jeff with a smile. “So do you want to hear the full version of this audio?”
Jeff looked stunned. There is a full version!
“Of course.
Aurora shrugged and glanced at Damien, who had a dark look on his face.
“I didn’t play it at first because I wanted to give Chloe a chance to admit her own fault. But if she refuses to do so. Well, I guess that there is no use holding it back anymore.”
With that said, Aurora took out the remote again.
NO
Chloe let out a sharp cry abruptly and rushed at Aurora to stop
But Aurora had already pressed the play button.
stop her.
I know that Alpha Lance is not that into Aurora. Jenny, you should keep sleeping with him!”
That was Chloe’s mother Hellen’s voice.
Chloe spoke up right after Hellen, “No mother. Just make Lance forget about Aurora is so not enough Jenny, I want you to accuse Alpha Lance of raping you in front of everyone!”
There was an upsurge of noise! Everyone gasped together!
It was certain now-without doubt-that Chloe arranged her own maid to seduce Alpha Lance before asking the same maid to accuse Lance of raping!
What a vicious woman!
Chloe cried frantically and tried to s**tc*
And the audio was still playing in th*e background with Chloe saying in a malicious voice:
-His reputation will stink, and nobody will take his pack seriously. And we have the proofs. Jenny did sleep with him. If he says that it is rape, how can Lance deny it?”
And just to be clear-Lance raised his voice saying, “-I didn’t sleep with Jenny. We simply let Chloe believed that I did.”
People were all busying discussing this sudden turn of event

Jenny waggered forward and finally spoke up in a quivering voice
“Yes. And she also asked me to lie about the raping because she hated G**a Aurora and Alpha Lance so much-
“LIAR” Chlor screamed at the top of her lung
And Jenny was not done here. “And this is not the first thing that you ask me to lie about! 6 months ago, you force me to lie about Luna Aurora and Steven’s affair, whereas there was no affair going on at all!!!”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
There was a collective intake of breath.
What did this maid just say?
So Aurora didn’t cheat on Damien with Steven..it was all part of Chloe’s scheme?!
Damien widened his eyes slightly, shock gleaming in his eyes. He first looked at Chloe, then back at Aurora, who was staring at him with an icy smile.
“I told you I was being set up but you didn’t believe it.” She sneered.
“NO-NO! Damien, you can’t trust them! They are full of lies!”
Chloe rushed up to Damien.

Her hair was messy, and her gown was crumpled. She didn’t look like a lady anymore, more li
She pointed at Jenny and shrieked, “How did they buy you off? You have been bought! That must be it!”
“They didn’t buy me!” Jenny cried shakily. “I-If anyone did try to buy me off and have me lie about things, it was YOU! You said that if I was willing to accuse Aurora and Steven of having an affair, you would give me 10 grand! But you didn’t keep your promise last time! So this time, I won’t let you manipulate me anymore
Chloe blurt out, “So this is what it is? You are getting back at me over a mere 10 grand?! You petty b***h-”
“Ha!” Lance pointed a finger at her, crying. “So you admit that you did try to offer Jenny 10 grand? To set Aurora up?”
A chill ran down Chloe’s spine.
SHIT! She walked into their trap!
“No that is a slip of tongue…I didn’t-
“But we all heard what you said, loud and clear!” one of the guests said with a frown.
Chloe was sweating like hell.
This was not how she planed the night! Aurora and Lance should be on their knees begging for mercy, not the other way around!
She tried to bring the discussion back to course, “Let’s not miss the point here”
A large hand grabbed her neck.
Damien looked down at her, his dark eyes flashing with anger.
“Was there an affair? Or was there not?” he asked in a hushed yet dangerous tone.
“T-There was!” Chloe struggled to breathe, “Trust me-”
Jenny dropped to her knees abruptly, crying out loud, “Don’t let her fool you again, Alpha! She would do anything to cover up her crimes! Remember a maid named Angelina who tried to deal your study’s key? She is actually a witness of Luna Aurora’s case! On the night Aurora and Steven were accused of having an affair, she came into Steven’s room and saw them. sitting at the table, not on the bed! Aurora was just helping Steve change his bandages! To silence Angelina, Chloe accused her of stealing and expelled her from this pack! Angelina’s claws were chopped off, and even her forehead was tattooed with. the word THIEF-”
She burst out crying, her whole body shaking in fear.
“ALPHA! If you don’t trust me this time, Chloe will do the exact same thing to me afterwards!”
Chloe’s face gradually turned blue from suffocation.
She dug at Damien’s hand with her long nails, desperately trying to free herself, and stumbled to the ground.
“Jenny you lying b**h!” Chloe snapped, and quickly looked back at Damien, pleading. “Damien! You remember Angelina, right? She tried to steal your study’s key and seduce you! She is a sneaky s** You ordered her expel! She deserved it! None of these has anything to do with me-TELL THEM!”
Yes, I remember her, Damien said.
Yet before Chloe could let out a relieved laugh, he added to that. But all I did was expelling her. I never asked to have her wolf claws chopped off and her forehead tattooed!”
He narrowed his eyes at Chloe’s panic face, gritting. “Did you go behind my back again, Chloe!! Did you try to silence her from speaking out the truth?!”
Chloe froze.
Then she stuttered, “O-Of course not! M-Maybe I remembered it wrong. Jenny also remembered it wrong! Yes, that maid only got expelled-
“Another lie?”
Aurora laughed.
“Chloe, you are digging your own grave. I guess only by bring the witness out will you admit to all of your crimes!”
Aurora clapped her hand and cried loudly, “Let’s bring the witness in!”
Everyone turned to look at the front gate.
Chloe also jerked around shockingly, her face tear-stained and her body trembling.
Through the front door came in two Ever Moon soldiers. Behind their back was a young woman. She had a pretty face, but her face was disfigured by an ugly tattoo on her forehead, which read “THIEF”
She was also armless.
Both of her wolf claws were chopped offlv
