My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 65
Lost Her Cool
More tears poured from Edna’s eyes, staining the blanket.
She didn’t dare plead, knowing it would be futile to change Xavier’s decision. Her family was powerful, indeed, but compared to the Wallaces, they were insignificant.
Miranda seemed to have predicted everything, so she didn’t cry much. However, the hurt was still there. Her family was not thriving like Edna’s, which was why she stuck with her. Having a rich best friend by her side gave her a sense of security, and despite their differences, they surprisingly got along well.
In just one night, they had lost their career and everyone was going to use them as a laughing stock whenever they got bored.
All of a sudden, Edna caught Michelle from the corners of her eyes, hiding behind one of their colleagues.
Michelle’s eyes widened in panic, her heart pounding as she silently begged Edna not to mention her name.
Edna glared at Michelle, “What the hell are you hiding behind that man, Michelle?” She questioned.
Instantly, everyone’s gazes landed on Michelle and found her hiding behind someone.
“Why are you trying to hide yourself, Michelle? You were in this just as much as we are,” she said. If Edna was going to go down, she wouldn’t bat an eyelash before pulling Michelle along with her. Besides, she wanted to partake in their plans.
“Michelle?” Selene called, her voice sounding like a heartbroken person. Everyone saw the both of them as besties so she needed to play that part well.
Selene wasn’t the least bit surprised that Michelle was part of the scheme. After seeing her hanging out with Edna and Miranda a few times, Selene had already predicted that they were plotting something.
“Were you part of their plan?” Selene asked, tears pooling in her eyes.
Kace saw Selene, and he couldn’t help but chuckle lightly so that no one would hear him.
‘She’s such a good actress,’ he thought to himself.
Michelle immediately shook her head as she looked at everyone one at a time, but they were already giving her the judging look she wanted to avoid, which was why she hid. She still wanted to maintain her image of an innocent person.
“I didn’t do anything, she’s lying against me. I wouldn’t do that to Selene, she’s my friend,” she lied, trying to defend herself.
Michelle had always portrayed herself as a pure angel who wouldn’t hurt a fly. She had a clean reputation with no scandal all the years of her career, which led a few people to find it impossible to believe that she was part of the plan.
“I didn’t do it. That’s such a disgusting thing they had planned against Selene, and I wouldn’t dare be a part of it, I swear,” she continued to defend herself, tears already dropping from her eyes to make herself look pitiful.
Edna gritted her teeth, her anger surging through her body. She immediately regretted not recording their conversation with Michelle when she was spilling out the things Selene had done to her, and the reason she wanted to take her revenge. Now that Michelle was denying the accusation, she didn’t know what to do to bring her down along with her.
“Then what about the snake you were talking about earlier?” Liam asked her.
He had been quietly watching the show and hadn’t said a word.
“You screamed out earlier at the party that Selene sent you a text about a snake being in her room, so we all rushed there,” he added.
“What?” Those were the only things Michelle could say, feeling the hair at her back stand on their ends while a dark storm hovered above her head.
“If you are not part of them, show us the text Selene sent you saying there was a snake in her room?” Liam requested, his expression calm.
Her heart skipped a beat at the realization that there was no way she was going to be able to defend herself anymore.
She had faked everything. There was no text and there was no snake.
She heard murmurs around her and she couldn’t help but grit her teeth in anger.
Not only was Selene able to evade their traps, but she wouldn’t be able to defend herself from the accusation Edna was pinning on her.
She glanced at Edna, noticing the smirk that had pulled up on the latter’s lips.

“Michelle, I thought we were friends. How could you do such a thing to me?” Selene asked, an unbelievable look on her face.
Everyone started feeling pity for Selene. She thought that Michelle was her friend but was betrayed.
The ones who also thought that Michelle didn’t have a hand in what happened glared at her.
“And so what? Did you think that I was your friend? You disgust me, Selene! You are a thief! You stole my role and stole Xavier from me, that’s why I hate you so much. You were supposed to have been raped by those men, but somehow, you managed to escape it,” Michelle spouted uncontrollably, the same thing that Edna was regretting at the moment.
“Michelle!!” Xavier yelled. For the first time in his life, he had the sudden urge to hit a woman, but he restrained himself.
Michelle felt her heart skip a beat in fear but she didn’t think that Xavier would blacklist her like he did with Edna and Miranda. She believed she was safe.
“Watch your tongue,” Xavier warned.
Everyone has been surprised by Michelle’s outburst. She didn’t expect her to lash out like that, revealing her inner hatred towards Selene. They had always thought Michelle was a humble woman, but after her attitude, they didn’t know what to think of her anymore.
“Michelle, how could you?” Selene asked, her eyes red from crying too much.
Even Xavier was amazed at how much Selene was tearing up effortlessly.
“We were never friends! And do you know who revealed those rumors about you? I was,” Michelle revealed without batting an eyelash.
