Chapter 170

Natalie was puzzled. “What photos?”

“Photos of the dressing room and the corridor outside of it,” explained Shane.

Natalie frowned but eventually got it. “So Jasmine took photos of the dressing room and the corridor

when they were unoccupied and had this man placed them in front of the cameras. That is way, nobody

could see what was really going on.”

“Correct.” Shane nodded.

Natalie bit her lower lip. “No wonder something about the security footages seemed off!”

She had to admit that was quite brilliant of Jasmine.

Natalie then give her stepsister a dirty look.

Jasmine stared back at Natalie before turning to Shane. “I admit that I bought this man off and that it

was my idea to ruin the outfits, but I only did it because I hate her. I was insecure! Only by kicking her

out of my life do I get to be heir to the Smith family and your fiancée. But... “

“But what?” Shane’s face had darkened.

Natalie was surprised that her stepsister was so forthcoming about their complicated relationship.

“But I swear I didn’t ruin the outfits!” Jasmine lifted her three fingers.

At that moment, the guilty staff member also spoke up. “She’s telling the truth. After taking care of the

cameras, she asked me to keep a lookout for her at the dressing room, but when we got there, the

outfits were already ruined.”

“What?” exclaimed Natalie in disbelief.

Knitting his brows tightly, Shane was also surprised by the revelation.

Rage was written all over Jasmine’s face as she clenched her fists forcefully. “Whoever was

responsible for the outfits must be trying to frame me for it. Just like how I was framed for what

happened to Natalie at the precinct last time. I didn’t buy off the auxiliary police.”

Although she was glad to see the outfits ruined, she was not about to be somebody else’s scapegoat.

“That wasn’t you?” Natalie was really confused then because she thought her stepsister was behind

everything.

“Of course not! Do you think I’d have let you walk out of there without a scratch?” Jasmine gave her

stepsister a dirty look.

Natalie’s heart sank, and confusion filled her eyes. “If you didn’t do it, then who could it be?”

“Maybe you have more enemies than just me.” Jasmine scoffed.

Deep in thought, Shane held his chin and looked down.

After a while, he put his hand down and looked indifferently at Jasmine. “Even if you didn’t do it, you’re

not entirely innocent. Silas!”

The assistant stood up when called.

Shane pointed at Jasmine. “Take her back to the Smiths and tell Harrison to keep a close eye on her,

or I’ll hold him responsible for her actions.”

“Yes, sir.” Silas nodded before approaching Jasmine.

The woman then quickly moved back. “I told you it wasn’t me, Shane, so why are you still punishing

me?”

“Because you had the intention to do it,” answered Natalie.

Shane nodded in agreement. “You should count yourself lucky that you didn’t get to do it, or the

reputation of Thompson Group would’ve been ruined by your hands!”

Jasmine shrank in guilt. “It can’t be that bad... Can it?”

Natalie laughed out loud when she heard her stepsister. “You think Mr. Shane was pulling your leg?

Managers of international brands are invited to the show today. Not only that, the critics and models

were also well-known internationally including the media.”

“Ms. Natalie’s right,” chimed in Silas. “We invited these big names because we want the apparel

company to be globally recognized. If it weren’t for Ms. Natalie’s backup, the show today would’ve

turned Thompson Group into a joke. The honored guests might even spit on Thompson Group because

they’d think they have been made a fool of.”
