Julia noticed that the branded bag in the photo Olivia was holding was one of the items purchased using her credit card.

Olivia had told her that Christina brought her to Radiant Corporation to buy some inexpensive gowns, but had mentioned nothing about buying a branded bag.

Julia reasoned that if Olivia really liked the bag, she wouldn’t mind buying it for the latter. However, the fact that Olivia lied through her teeth about it indicated that she had a defective personality.

The photos accompanying the news made it impossible for Olivia to deny her involvement.

Olivia felt cold sweat drenching her back when she noticed Julia’s expression turning dark.

Her voice was trembling as she explained, “Aunt Julia, that was fake news. Photos can be photoshopped, so don’t trust that!”

Christina was certain that the photos were not fabricated, as she recognized the man in the pictures as Edward Olson. The snapshots of the two of them laughing and chatting couldn’t have been photoshopped.

However, she wasn’t about to chime in right this moment.

After all, she knew Julia wasn’t a fool to be tricked by Olivia’s lie.

Julia shot Olivia an exasperated glare. “You’re a young lady in your twenties, but you’re having an affair with an old man! I’m not going to believe any of your excuses. How could you become his mistress? Aren’t you ashamed?”

Julia’s marriage was destroyed by a homewrecker, so she despised immoral women.

Olivia’s actions had struck her sore spot.

“I wonder how your mom educated you over the years. You might be adopted, but you’re still part of the Stone family. If word gets out, the Stone family won’t let things slide easily,” Julia warned.

Tears rolled down Olivia’s cheeks as she sobbed, “Aunt Julia, listen to me. It was a misunderstanding!”

Her tears were merely part of her act, and no one sympathized with her.

Julia rose to her feet, looking both indifferent and disappointed. “You don’t have to explain anything to me. Save your excuses for the Stone family. Raymond, give her a ride home.”
