She was caught off guard momentarily. And her face turned beet red.
“I donated the necklace for charity. What are you talking about? Liana, you really shouldn’t point your fingers at others.” Alyssa took a step back, afraid that Liana might pounce on her.
She was such a bother. Alyssa feared she might have to get a rabies vaccine.
“Allison! You resort to such lowly methods to humiliate me and Jeremy because you can’t win him over! You’re trying to ruin our relationship! Do you think this would work? Jeremy would never fall “You didn’t want the necklace anymore. You sold it to a pawn shop. So, it’s no longer yours. You have no say in who buys it or how they handle it. If you’re angry, it’s your own doing. Don’t blame others.”
Alyssa looked away. She was no longer interested in wasting words with Liana, and tried to leave.
She wouldn’t even spare a glance for such a despicable and hypocritical woman. If it weren’t for Jeremy, she would’ve never crossed paths with Liana.
“Stop right there, you wretch! Get back here!” Liana’s anger surged. She grabbed Alyssa’s delicate wrist and pulled hard.
Alyssa felt a sharp pain and furrowed her brow. Then, Liana forcefully took off the bracelet Mr. Walsh Senior gave her. It left a bright red mark on her fair wrist.
“Give it back!” Alyssa was outraged. She glared at her fiercely.
Liana clenched the bracelet in her hand. She fell in love with this bracelet the moment she saw it. But that old man had to give it to the person she hated most!
“Allison, you’ve taken what belongs to me, you shameless whore! Since I can’t have it, don’t even think about having it either!” Liana sneered and slammed the bracelet on the marble sink.
“No!”

Alyssa felt her breathing stopped.
The bracelet was a gift from Newton, and Liana destroyed it. In an instant, fury surged throughout her veins. She had the urge to break every bone in Liana’s body.
“Liana Gardner!” Alyssa shrieked, her eyes red with anger.
Liana was frightened but regained her composure. “So what if I broke your bracelet? Only the two of us are here. I can say you hurt me. Who do you think Jeremy will believe?”
Liana smiled wickedly. She picked up a piece of the broken bracelet. Then, she extended her delicate wrist.
Alyssa realized what was happening. She wanted to stop her. But it was too late.
Liana yelped, and Alyssa watched as she slit her wrist with the broken bracelet.
Perhaps it was her first time inflicting a wound, so she was able to avoid any major arteries. But the cut was deep. Blood gushed out of her wound in an instant.

“Jeremy. It hurts. Am I going to die?” Liana sobbed like a baby in his arms.

“Wait! No!” Seeing that Alyssa didn’t counter the attacks, Landon became anxious. He hurriedly stepped forward to help her out.
“No matter how wronged Ms. Gardner feels, no matter how pitiful it sounds, it is a one–
sided statement. We should listen to what Ms. Burton has to say. There are no surveillance cameras in the bathroom, but someone else was probably present. So we might as well ask them to figure out what happened.

Startled, Alyssa glanced at Landon. Her quick glance brought springs of joy to him. 1
Their secret eye contact didn’t go unnoticed by Jeremy. He took it as proof of their flirting.
Nonetheless, he didn’t react. Instead, his hands balled into fists.
