Chapter 533
Sydney tensed. "What? How dare you accuse me?"
"Why not? Am | wrong?" Sarah's smile was cold.
"Stop slandering us!" Mrs. Blanco erupted. "We shouldn't just take your word for it. If you're so confident, release
Benjamin and let's hear both sides!"
Sydney spat, "Not everyone's as shameless as you! You've already been divorced once. You know what the
Chancers say about you? That you cheated during your marriage, then tried to social climb your way into the
Reynolds family. But that plan backfired, didn't it? So who's really the shameless one here?"
"Shut up!" A sharp voice cut through the room. Everyone turned to see Mia Reynolds standing in the doorway.
The room shifted - everyone knew the Reynolds heiress, the girl they'd all tried desperately to curry favor with.
"Mia? How did you get here?"
Sarah had heard Mia was basically under house arrest lately, her grandfather even stopping her therapy
sessions.

dare you."
Sydney paled, shooting Sarah a venomous look. That bitch must have called Mia here on purpose!
But she can't back down at this moment. "I'm not making this up. Everyone on the East Coast knows it. You can
silence me, but can you silence the entire city's gossip?"
Seeing how the lawyers and Old Lady White hadn't objected to her earlier accusations, she grew bolder.
Mia fixed her with an arctic stare. "Sarah and James divorced because HE cheated! Everyone knows that too -
funny how you left that part out. And letset something straight: Sarah never tried to marry my brother. He
wanted to marry her. She's the one who ended things. Get your facts right."
Sydney went pale. "You're just covering for her!"
"Sydney! Be quiet!" Old Lady White snapped.
She knew the Reynolds heiress well - spoiled by her grandfather and
untouchable. Even the White family couldn't afford to cross her...
Catching Sarah's subtle glance, Mia put on a show of fairness. "Sarah, why don't we do what they suggest? Let's
get Benjamin out for questioning."
"Fine by me." Sarah said casually.
The room was stunned by how easily Sarah agreed to release him.
The senior lawyer spoke gravely, ‘Be
assured, if Benjamin is truly at foul,
we'll take apRropriaKe 6otion. But if
yBuPe Abitated these accusations,
there will be serious consequences
for your position in the family." The
