The Reynolds family was already powerful enough to shake the foundation of the Chancer family, and with
Melvin involved, it only made matters worse.
Mrs. Chancer frowned deeply. "Why do you always blyour sister every tthat woman gets into trouble?
Lucy already said she's been hall day. Why can't you believe her?"
James let out a cold laugh. "Believe her? How many lies has she told before?"
Lucy felt her nerves fraying. She knew James was right-her history of lies made her hard to trust. But the thought
of Sarah finally meeting her downfall filled her with a twisted sense of satisfaction.
Still, today... she really hadn't left the house. Vivian's plan hadn't involved her at all.
Suddenly, something clicked in her mind. She looked at James with wide eyes. "James, where's Charlotte?"
"Don't worry about her. Just answerwas the incident at the estate your doing?"
"I swear | didn't go anywhere near the estate today! Last night, | lent my car to Charlotte. She said her car was in
the shop and she had something important to take care of. So, | let her borrow mine." Lucy decided to go all in,
pushing the blaway from herself.
As long as she stayed out of it, she didn't care what happened to anyone else. James's cold, dark eyes bore into
her, his voice heavy. "Is that true?"
Lucy nodded firmly. "Yes, | gave her the car. If you don't believe me, you can ask her when she gets back."

Mrs. Chancer seized the opportunity, pulling Lucy into a teary embrace. “Lucy, no matter what, we're always
outsiders to them!"
"Mom!" James sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose as a headache threatened to conshim. "Fine. When
Charlotte gets back, I'll ask her myself."
When Charlotte finally returned home, she found James, Lucy, and Mrs. Chancer sitting in the living room,
waiting for her.
"James? Lucy? Mom? Why are you all sitting here?" Charlotte asked, puzzled.
James's gaze was as cold as ice, his tone calm yet sharp. "Where were you this afternoon?"
"Me? | went to visit my parents."
"Did you borrow Lucy's car?" His eyes narrowed, cutting straight through her.
Charlotte quickly lifted her head to
glance at Lucy. But Lucy, avoiding

Lucy shot up from her seat, panic evident in her voice. "Charlotte, last night you cto my room and borrowed

Charlotte raised an eyebrow, her tone light but slightly mocking. "Lucy, what are you talking about? Why would |

Lucy remembered it vividly. Charlotte had claimed her car broke down, and because Lucy thought it was part of
her plan against Sarah, she had reluctantly agreed.
