The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 273

Lucas walked forward to support Paisley, "Ms. Anthony, please take it easy. You're not fully recovered yet. Please, sit down."

Then, he helped her sit on the sofa as she was too feeble to walk by herself.

Valeria grinned mockingly at Paisley's performance.

"Ms. Anthony, you should've stayed in the hospital if you're still ill. What if you got worse during the ride back to Sydney?"

"Miss Brown, do you have to be so cynical to Miss Anthony? She has done nothing wrong to you", Danya spoke up before Paisley could.

"Stop, Danya!" Paisley cried out.

Then, she turned to Valeria, looking apologetic, "Miss Brown, please forgive Danya. She didn't mean it. I would apologize on behalf of her."

"Aren't you going to ask what happened before you apologize on her behalf? It seems like you already knew what she did", Valeria sneered.

Paisley coughed weakly, "No, Miss Brown, I don't. I apologize because I failed to teach her manners."

"You don't? Well then, I don't mind telling you right now." Valeria's unforgiving manner greatly contrasted with Paisley's apology.

William frowned at that, but he didn't say anything.

Glancing at the look on William's face, Lucas tried to smooth things over.

"Miss Brown, since Ms. Anthony has already apologized, I think we should just call it a day."

However, Valeria wasn't going to listen to him, "It's not that I don't want to put an end to this squabble, but I can't go to bed knowing that people think I'm a bully. Bobby has already gone to get the surveillance footage, so I think we should at least look at the footage before we do anything else."

As she spoke, Bobby returned to the living room and said, "Sir William, I've looked through the footage. No evidence of Miss Brown's beating was found."

"How could that be!?" Danya jumped up, "She slapped me a few times! She must have tampered with it!"

Valeria's eyes darted back and forth between William and Bobby in suspicion.

Then, Bobby took out his phone, "I made a copy of it. If you're unconvinced, you can see it for yourself."

Indeed, the footage only showed that Danya and Valeria were arguing at Valeria's door until right before William's return.

Danya was confused when she saw no proof of her being slapped by Valeria. She was sure that Valeria had assaulted her, but she didn't understand why the footage didn't show it.

It must have been tampered with. The only question was who had done it.

It wouldn't be Valeria because she was here in the living room for the entire time. Then, Danya realized that Bobby was the only one who had the chance to alter the footage.

"Impossible!" She pointed fingers at Bobby in a fit of rage, "He must have deleted the part where Valeria slapped me! He's helping her!"

"Enough!" William bellowed, "Ms. Anthony, is there something wrong with your butler? The footage has already shown that Valeria didn't hit her. Why is she still accusing Valeria of something she hadn't done?"

"I'm not lying! Miss Anthony, trust me! Valeria hit me!" Danya cried.

"Oh please, you can stop acting now. Even the footage shows that you're lying. On the other hand, I have evidence to prove that you've harassed me," Valeria sneered.

Although she seemed indifferent on the outside, Valeria knew that the surveillance camera must have recorded everything down.

Bobby must have edited the footage, and he wouldn't do that without William's permission.

Valeria began to think that William must have instructed Bobby to delete whatever evidence that was against her. With this, he had shown that he, as a matter of fact, felt nothing for Paisley. William's love for Valeria hadn’t wavered even once.

Before this, Valeria wasn't entirely convinced that William had no interest in Paisley.

Objectively speaking, Paisley was indeed a beautiful and intelligent woman with Hayden to support her.

If there was anything Valeria learned from her relationship with Mason, it was that she couldn't do anything to stop a man from leaving.

However, William's action had dispelled all her concerns. And it was time for her to strike back.
