?Chapter 670:


    Katelyn clutched the phone that had just revealed Kassandra’s misdeeds.


    As she presented the video to the crowd, everyone assumed they were seeing the entire clip.


    However, no one anticipated the revealing second part.


    The additional footage showed Lise pretending to offer help, only to attack Katelyn from behind, before Katelyn fought back and shoved her into the sea.


    This maneuver was a calcted move by Katelyn. She had purposely shown only the first part of the video earlier to gauge Lise’s reaction.


    Lise, falling right into Katelyn’s trap, responded exactly as Katelyn had predicted.


    Given their history of frequent shes, Katelyn had mastered the art of anticipating Lise’s tactics.


    Lise shook with increasing intensity.


    She realized toote that Katelyn had cleverlyid a snare for her.


    Had she known there was more to the video, she would have been more cautious with her words.


    The onlookers, hungry for drama, were stunned by the rapidly unfolding scandal.


    Initially, they had pegged Katelyn as the culprit, but the events quickly painted her as the victim, flipping the narrative in her favor spectacrly.


    Despite the clear evidence, Lise remained adamant, her expression one of sheer disbelief.


    “Katelyn, why are you showing this video? Doesn’t it prove you pushed me into the sea?” she said.


    The controversial clip of her fallsted just five seconds.

    With that, she still believed she could sway some opinions with her version of events.


    Katelyn responded with a derisive sneer, pausing the video at a crucial frame.


    Now, everyone could clearly see Lise attempting to push Katelyn first.


    Katelyn sneered again, her look one of disdain.


    “Do you have anything else to say now?”


    “You!” Lise eximed, her eyes widening in shock.


    What could she possibly say now? Katelyn had foreseen her moves and effectively sealed off all her escape routes. The murmurs from the crowd grew louder.


    “Without this video, I can’t imagine how badly Katelyn could have been wronged. Lise kept iming she held no grudge and only wanted an apology. Clearly, she had ulterior motives.”


    Someone added, “Thank goodness for this video. But really, it looks like karma caught up with both of them.”


    Some even expressed pity, saying, “Am I the only one feeling bad for Neil? He’s be the brunt of so many jokestely, and it seems like Lise is behind more than half of them.”


    These whisperedments forced Lise to bow her head in embarrassment.


    At that moment, her resentment extended beyond Katelyn to include Kassandra.


    If Kassandra hadn’t tried to deal with Katelyn and left behind that damning video, how could her carefully crafted image of the victim have been shattered?


    Jaxen smirked contentedly, eyeing them provocatively. “Why so quiet now? Not going to continue ying the victim? You were quite talkative just a minute ago.”


    Lise’s face turned crimson with humiliation, unable to muster a response.


    Damn it all!


    Why couldn’t Katelyn and her friends just vanish? Kassandra had already been escorted away by Vincent’s people.


    Now, Lise found herself alone on the deck, under the critical gaze of everyone.


    Neil looked at Lise with palpable disappointment and then turned, wheeling himself away.


    “Neil, wait!”


    Without thinking, Lise hurried after him.


    She had been genuinely touched when Neil had defended her.


    Her sole aim had been to exact revenge on Katelyn, not to hurt him in any way.


    As the crowd thinned, the onlookers who had gathered for the spectacle began to disperse.


    Jaxen was quick to show his approval with a thumbs-up. “Master, your counterattack was sublime. You really let them have a taste of their own medicine. Did you notice how quickly Lise’s face fell? It was almost instantaneous.”


    Katelyn gave him a helpless look and whispered, “I don’t recall ever formally epting you as my apprentice. Please stop calling me master out of the blue.”


    Her secret identity as TS the hacker was known only to a tight circle of friends.


    Recalling all the previousplications, Katelyn wanted to avoid any further unnecessary drama.


    It was all rather exasperating.


    Jaxen scratched his head, gave a shortugh, and cleared his throat.


    “I’m just getting you used to the idea early. As long as I’m around, I won’t give up on that dream.”


    Katelyn was at a loss for words.


    Her lips twitched, but she refrained from saying anything too harsh.<fn05ed> This content belongs to find?novel</fn05ed>


    Deep down, she felt like telling Jaxen that his grand illusions were just pipe dreams.


    Vincent looked at her with a soft, somewhat satisfied expression. “With everything that’s happened tonight, you must be tired. Why not find a room and rest for a bit?”


    Jaxen quickly handed Katelyn a key.


    “Master, here’s the key to a luxury room we have here—it’spletely private. Rest up, and if you get bored,e and join us.”


    “Alright.”


    Katelyn’s room number was 2201.


    Just as she undressed and stepped into the shower, she suddenly heard the sound of the door knob turning. “Who’s there?” she called out.
