My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 64

Too Late To Repent
Everyone’s eyes widened in shock; they couldn’t believe what Edna was spouting. The fact that she didn’t bother to hold her tongue showed she didn’t care about what anyone thought.

“How dare you evade our trap?” Edna questioned, expecting an answer from Selene but the latter only stared at her, not out of shock, but out of amusement at how Edna had used her hands to dig her own grave.

Miranda tried to restrain Edna from saying anything more, but it was too late. Everyone had already heard Edna’s words, and the truth of what she revealed hung heavily in the air.

“So you wanted to have me raped by those men?” Selene questioned, her eyes darkened at the two besties. “How shameless can you be?”

“After the insult you threw at us, did you think we would let you be? I promised you that you should be prepared for what we would do to you,” Edna barked. She spoke as if she had lost her mind, and everyone present couldn’t help but whisper amongst themselves how shameless she was, while they recorded her confession secretly.

Michelle backed away, a surge of panic gripping her. Hearing Edna speak uncontrollably, she feared her own name might slip out next. The thought of everyone turning their judgmental eyes on her made her heart race, and she desperately wanted to distance herself from the unfolding chaos.

Director Jeunes was speechless, he didn’t know how to handle the matter at hand. But he was sure of one thing, the two besties were getting fired. He wouldn’t dare have them play a role in the movie else, he wanted to plan his doom.

“That’s enough,” he said, his voice attracting everyone’s attention towards him. “You two owe Selene an apology for what you planned to do to her. Even if you two argued, that shouldn’t result in wanting to have your colleague raped,” he added.

Edna scoffed. “I would rather eat dirt than apologize to her,” she said.

“Is that so?”

Suddenly, they heard a deep voice in the room. Immediately, their attention went to that person. Their eyes widened in shock when they saw Xavier walk into the room, hands in pockets, his hair combed back, leaving a few strands to settle on his forehead.

As always, everyone was amazed when they saw it. Everything about him drew attention to him and they did their job well by admiring him. Even though they found him so handsome, they wouldn’t dare to go close to him, that was how strong his aura was.

When he walked inside the room they were having a conversation, everyone held their breath, as if they were being suffocated.

Everyone at the set didn’t know how much Xavier cared for Selene, but the way he always brought food and flowers for her showed enough.

Edna felt as if water was splashed on her as she broke out in cold sweat, and so did her friend, Miranda, and Michelle who tried to make herself as invisible as possible.

If Xavier got involved in what had happened, they knew for sure things weren’t going to work out well for them.

“X-Xavier,” director Jeunes called. He went to Xavier, hoping the matter wouldn’t escalate more than it already did. Xavier was a huge sponsor to the movie and he couldn’t afford to lose him when two of his cast tried to frame his girlfriend.

“Repeat what you said earlier,” Xavier ordered, his downturned eyes on Edna, and the latter didn’t know if she should breathe through her nose or mouth. His aura was too suffocating, she felt cold under the blanket so she pulled it towards her even more.

Edna didn’t dare to repeat what she said. Instead, she gritted her teeth.

“Your girlfriend is a slut!” She yelled out.

Now, everyone feared for Edna. She did come from a rich family, but there was no way her family’s power would be able to save her from Xavier.

Michelle cursed under her breath, silently hoping that Edna would just shut up her mouth and stop making the matter worse.

“She slept with director Jeunes just so that she could get the lead role in the movie!” Edna added.

Now, Miranda scooted away from Edna, no longer wanting to be associated with her. Edna had let her temper get the better of her, and Miranda could see that she was on the path to dragging both of them down into ruin.

Director Jeunes glared at Edna, shocked by what she dared to say.

He had cleared up the rumor, making sure that no one would release such fake news anymore. He couldn’t help but suspect Edna to be the one who released the fake rumor that circulated the internet a few weeks ago.

“How dare you say such things about Selene?” Xavier questioned, anger evident in his tone.

Earlier, he had been worried that something bad had already happened to Selene when he went to her room. But was glad when he saw her unscathed.

Xavier walked closer to Edna, a fierce glare in his eyes directed at Edna.

It was at that moment that Edna seemed to have come back to her senses.

Xavier’s imposing aura was too much for her to handle. Tears streamed down her eyes as she pleaded, “I’m sorry for what I said, Xavier. This is a mistake and I promise I won’t do it again.”

She had thought that saying disgusting things about Selene in front of her boyfriend would make him despise her at that moment. Unfortunately for her, her plan had failed. But she had spoken too much for her to be forgiven.

Selene couldn’t help but scoff at how Edna had just dug her own grave. But she was overjoyed seeing that their plans had failed and she only had one person to thank for that, Xavier.

“You won’t get the chance to make such a mistake ever again,” said Xavier. “Because from now on, I’m blacklisting the both of you from the entertainment industries. And you can say goodbye to your father’s company because I’m making it go bankrupt in the next hour.”
