"Everyone heard the recording played in the courtroom just now!" Javier was so pissed off that his breathing had becuneven. He growled, "Others might not have recognized your voice. But of course | could! "Right from the start... you were fully aware of Sophia's actions. You knew she hired a hitman! Not only did you conceal it from me, but you actively assisted her in keeping it a secret. You must be out of your mind!" Betty denied, "No. That's not it." "Don't you know that you were harboring a criminal? You are an accomplice! Did you want to follow in Sophia's footsteps and end up imprisoned?" Betty was scared shitless. She was flustered. She knelt by Javier's feet. Tear stains marked her face as she gazed up at him. She pleaded, "Dad! | was wrong. | now know that what | did was wrong! "All those things. She madedo them! She's my mother. Those things that she askedto do, I didn't dare to go against her! | was too mindlessly obedient. | was dumb! "Please, | beg you. You cannot letend up in prison! | am your daughter. Could you bear to seeend up in prison? "Also, can our family afford to have another family member go to jail? The Schmidt family already took a hit because of it. You've worked tirelessly to manage the Beckett Group. Are you hoping the Beckett Group ends up in ruins just like the Schmidt Group?" Javier's dark pupils constricted as he yelled, "Bugger off!" Betty scooted to the side hurriedly and made way for Javier. She watched as he walked past her.

A series of footsteps sounded as others walked by her, too. Not a single person stopped to help her up. This made her feel even more ashamed.

"Damn it. Goddamn it!" [x] Betty punched the ground with her fists. She screamed and cursed in the empty hallway.

"Hey, this is the courthouse, not a circus! Go outside to scream instead!" Two police officers approached her to throw her out. They carried hateful expressions on their faces.

Betty's face flushed red in embarrassment. She gathered up her strength to stand back up.

She stumbled awkwardly. She was taken aback the moment she stood back up.

At the opposite end of the hallway, bathed in a stream of sunlight, stood the Taylors. They had observed her humiliating display.

Betty, who once relished provoking Alyssa whenever she crossed her path, now refrained from uttering a word.

She hastily retreated with her tail tucked between her legs.

"What a wretched family." Colene clicked her tongue. She crossed her arms and mocked, "Was there ssort of genetic mutation? How could Sophia end up having two daughters who are worlds apart? "Ms. Lauren is such a sweet and lovely lady. As for Betty... She's like a character straight out of The Witcher.

She's vulgar, dumb, and evil! "Even her obnoxious mother would've been better than her when she was 20 years younger!" Mandy looked confused. She said, "Speaking of this, Colene, | felt strange too. There are four children in the Beckett family.

"I've seen Justin, who's living in Mosgravia long-term when he was younger. He, Jasper, and Lauren are such outstanding and glamorous people. Among the young people in Solana City, that is.

"Betty, on the other hand, is like a feral child plucked from the streets. Her demeanor is less than favorable, and she lacks any hint of refinement." Upon hearing that, the gaze in Alyssa's eyes dimmed slightly. She couldn't help but feel a hint of suspicion.

Betty didn't bear much resemblance to Javier, whether personality-wise or even by how she looked.

When they stood together, one wouldn't even think they were father and daughter.

"Lyse? Are you okay? What were you so focused on?" Jasper whispered. He gave her a slight tug on her waist.

Alyssa leaned on him. She pressed her lips together slightly and replied, "It's nothing."
